SAY HELLO TO CARMELO!*


With a smile that can light up a stadium and an attitude so humble you pray for some arrogance. Carmelo Anthony is one of the coolest dudes to ever throw on a basketball jersey period! Some may think this is an overstatement! But, before you start hatin' think about it for just one second! Think about how cool this dude is????? He rocks cornrows tighter than Beyonce's booty! He's got a swagger which is not cocky, but confident! He dates chicks we all want a piece of (La La)! And on top of all that - this cat can ball like a mix of Charles Barkley, Willis Reed, James Worthy and Scottie Pippen! This dude has got it all - The natural outside game, the disastrous inside presence, the irritating defensive ability going along with the humble demeanour! What more could you ask for in a player?


Coming out of Oak Hill Melo was on top of the "we gotta have" list. Scouts were hollering like groupies at a DiPlOmAtS concert. Everybody knew that this kid was going to be SuPeR! Even though all the hype was around Bron and Cooke, everybody knew this cat was gonna blow up the league with his fierce and raw talent. People all over the world knew that this kid had mad game and was more than ready to be playin in the league! But all that didn't faze Melo! Nope..... he just ate up all the compliments and praise then used it to start-up the best freshman year a college baller had in a long time. Leading the Orange Assassins in Syracuse to a 30 -5 record and their first NCAA championship in men's basketball. Dominating all which stepped up, Melo averaged 22.2 ppg and 10.0 rebs without even really trying. Of course then came every honor known to man, All-Big Ten, All- American and probably every freshman of the year award he could get his hands on. College (although just practice for a man like him) helped him get one step closer and one leap higher in the rankings of - The NBA DRAFT. Melo once told the media, "I think going to college for that one year was probably the best thing I have ever done." He was right! The following year he was selected third overall by a Denver team which needed him more than Kobe needs an alibi everytime time he's in Colorado. Denver was the perfect place for him to start and even end his career.


Now that he finally got to where he wanted to be all his life, coming up from the crazy streets of Baltimore. After shooting millions of jump shots, demolishing every net he could find! After all that hype and talk of the greatest league in the world, the quite and talented Melo made it in to the family everybody wanted to be a part of (apart form the Cosby's) - the National Basketball Association. Some consider it a heaven of some sort, a place where only the baddest and hardest working cats make the cut! What every grown man dreams (well most grown men)! Not only did he make it he continued on with his dominant ways, turning his team into a playoff contender and out of Crappyocredome. Averaging 21 points a game, 6 rebounds and 2 assist, Melo was only a few votes off rookie of the year. Some even believe he was robbed of that honor.


It is now 2007 and Melo is having his best year so far, averaging 29.3 point, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. Despite all the hate from the peoples he finally made it to the All-Star team after being robbed of the honor year after year. Melo has put a fist in all the haters faces proving he is force to be reckoned with. Now teaming up with AI (best player in the league no contest) to put the Dirty Denver squad on top of the basketball universe. Melo is 6-8, 230 lbs of pure ballerlicious talent. No one can stop him as he blows on through the league raining buckets and tears all over the NBA. You know how good the dude is, so jump on the band wagon before you get left behind.

Peace!
