Carmelo Anthony is a punk

Just when you want to believe in Carmelo Anthony, he does something really stupid.

In the United States-Argentina game, Anthony came close to starting a fight. Nothing justified Anthony's anger. Other Redeemers were walking away and then had to grab Anthony. and calm him down.

The crowd rightfully booed Anthony.

The Americans have conducted themselves with such dignity and then Anthony almost screws the whole thing up.

Anthony has a well documented problem with his stupid temper but Anthony has said the guy who was a key component in starting a brawl in New York is a different man these days. Yet his little flash of temper in a situation that didn't call for anger almost ruined the team's hard earned good guy image.

Calm down Carmelo and take some anger management classes while you are it.

Jeez I wish writers actually watched the entire game if they are going to comment. Mr. Anthony endured three eye pokes earlier in this game. The Argies wanted a physical game.

Here is the story of the game,

Carmelo Anthony played his best game of the olympics so far. Faced with the daunting task of having to carry the load against the large Argentian team, he played excellent position defense and despite the pounding he was enduring he consinstently beat his man to the spot.  With Howard playing limited minutes due to fouls it was up to Carmelo to play against the Argentinian big men and the man known more for his outside game was up to the task..........

I wish Newsturds actually watched the game. If glowering at your opponet is almost starting a fight then I guess there are a lot of scarredy cats around. I have seen monks exchange more cross words then went on here.

ALSO in case you misssed it ( and you obviously did) there was a lot of trash talking and hard fouls going on.

How do you feel about hockey?

I, also a die hard Nugs fan 100% agree. While he is talented, he proves over and over to be a liability. He misses way too many layups.  I wish the Nugs would trade him.

You and I are in agreement on this, Mike.

As a Nuggets fan, it has been hard to watch his game and not to compare him to a sloth. He even sort of looks like a sloth.

And then when you consider the pouting, DUI, etc., it becomes tedious.

I was moderately moved when he became extremely concerned about the possibility of being traded... but, after further review, I suspect that his worry revolved largely around his large and elegant mansion, which is so huge and expensive that he would likely not be able to sell it for at least ten years given the current Real Estate turmoil.

Below is a link to a picture of a sloth, for your records.
