Carmelo Anthony has always been a well known NBA star, but his usual colors consist of the shiny baby blue and yellow, which i personally loved. But recently those colors have shifted to a much darker blue and orange instead, and fans are going crazy about it. Carmelo made his debut with the NY Knicks last night against the Milwaukee Bucks with 27 points and 10 rebounds, helping his new found team defeat the Bucks 114-108 helping them improve to 29-26 in the season.
Other then the positive impact he may have on the teams ability to win, he's also bringing in the cash flow! Just like when Lebron went to Miami, you had many people who all of a sudden became Heat fans, that is just the same when it comes to Carmelo, but maybe even more so. Carmelo's #7 jersey sold out before tip off yesterday, its an honor to be a NY Knicks fan now, knowing you have an All Star forward to help out the team. I often switch back to ESPN every once in a while to catch the scoop, and this talk about Carmelo is a never ending conversation. This was a great start for Carmelo and its really great news that on his first night playing for the new team, he did great and didn't let his team or his fans down.
I am definitely happy to be a New Yorker and I am looking forward to watching them play once I am home, this is a great opportunity for them and I'm looking forward to what they can now accomplish, and I'm sure everyone else is waiting in anticipation as well.
