Will Carmelo Anthony regret resigning from the New York Knicks? His NBA team has had their share of struggling times lately, but they'll look to put things right in New York as they welcome the Denver Nuggets to town. This is a must-see game, and we're bringing you free basketball coverage, so now all you have to do is choose where to sit, and then you can wonder whether Carmelo can continue to carry this team on his back or not. Check out the action right now!
Gordon Hayward recently struggled to contain the star, and he explained, saying, "He's a scorer. I love playing against guys like that. It gets a little physical down there, but that's kind of the nature of who he is. He's hard to guard. We put multiple guys on him and it still doesn't seem like it works. I'm sore. I was already kind of catching a cold. To have to fight him during that is exhausting, man. He's a hassle down there. He creates the contact, so even if you're not really trying to, he's right there battling you."
Carmelo believes he can carry the load, saying to ProBasketballTalk, "As the game went on, I just saw some holes in the defense where I could take advantage of that. I saw they were playing me one on one, and I felt I could take advantage down there in the post more. I don't like to lose. And tonight was just one of those games where I was trying to will our way to a win. ... It was just one of them days where you're just trying to do everything to win the game."
But will he grow tired of "trying to win" instead of actually winning?
