Props to given Melo his flowers. These four really hold it down for each other.
Man they really do
get these fools off the stage
Zesty 😂
Great speech Melo, lots of respect. Turning hard times into success. You are awesome!
Banana Boat!!!
Melo legit deserves all the accolades. He really is one of the GREATS in the 00’s era that somewhat got forgotten about after his knicks career. Those days with Melo and Jr smith in NY. Was some dope times in the NBA . MUCH LOVE CARMELO. One of the greatest of ALL TIME
Greats at scoring only he’s not making anyone better
Only went past the first round twice in his career. Stop. He is overrated!
@@jampar8 it’s about the team . Knicks front office could’ve done better.
@@matthewspanner6232 What about the Denver Nuggets?? Stop.
Imagine if Melo joined the Cavs during that finals run
His offensive skills were top notch , footwork, jab steps, loved it . Thank you melo
Jab Step King
@IGcantstopfactsbrehHe played in the era of Lebron, KD, Kawhi. What All-NBA team did you expect him to make?
@IGcantstopfactsbreh Melo was/is A A Little bit Above Avrg can't carry a Team Iso player win Some Loss Many But Overall Over Rated.
@@ocampbell1954 & did not Winn or Carry A Team
@@Waterheater263 There are lots of great players that didn't win. Doesn't make them not great. Maybe he should have jumped on someone's bandwagon like KD.
What a brotherhood these four have created. It's unbreakable. Thank you, Melo for all the memories and always being yourself. So happy that he can see and smell his flowers while he's here. Can't wait to see what's next.
👍 you're RIGHT!!! ..
Melo deserves his flowers 💐
Lebron is blessed,
with the BEST circle of friends in his life
> the Akron FabFive
(elementary school age friends for life)
>the 4 Horseman / business partners
(loyal friends from childhood, for life)
>Banana Boat Brothers
(NBA brotherhood for life)
> James Gang (family for life)
It's great to see four best friends and future Hall of Fame greats together. This should be an example to everyone that we need to be better in this world
🗣️💪🏽
Preach
Glad they gave Melo his flowers he really deserves this and more
MELO WASNT CUT LIKE THAT ON THA COURT 🤣🤣🤣
@@dougphamtexas2707 his face expression tells it all. He knew he was being overly celebrated
Melo was and still is a clown
@@WingoTribe704😂😂😂😂
He was good but he was definitely overrated even if as a scorer.
Carmelo Anthony has been my favorite basketball player since he played at Syracuse. I was sad when left Denver cause that's my hometown team. I named my son after Carmelo and I always tell him strive for greatness and don't be afraid to strike just like melo did on the basketball court. Thank you melo for everything.
I knew that guy was gonna be good in Syracuse too…
loser naming your son carmelo
False idols
@@Ma1q444 just like your dad
@@Slapyoself303 you got a kid and you still saying that at your big age
Great to see 4 Real friends hold it down for each other. Thats rare nowadays. Congrats Melo
What a beautiful tribute!! This is such a great brotherhood!! Melo is highly appreciated and respected!! What a career!! Congratulations! Enjoy your retirement! Thank you👏
Yes, I’m so happy they gave Melo his flowers. I’m from Syracuse and when he got us our championship that was one of the best moments for our city!
I watched football for 25 years and one night I watched A OKC Thunder Game. I saw Melo's shooting form and fell in love with Basketball instantly. I appreciate you Melo. Thank You.
His form is Poetry
He is the definition of triple threat
@@AcesBeatz 100%
@@gears1707 💯.
dayum if only u watched his nuggets days
Melo 100% deserves the recognition and respect. Absolute class act. One of the best looking jumpers in the league even till today.
and won absolutely nothing lol. Selfish fkn player
Agreed a top 15 offensive player in history easily!
Didn’t kno u can win NBA awards for college attributes..
Not even a top 15 offensive player of the last 10 years.
@@h.a.l.3980tell us you don’t know ball without saying it
28,289 reasons why this man is a NBA legend!!! Number 9 in NBA scoring All-Time!
Yup they cant erase that
@@coreymelo5962what else have they “erased”
And think about if he wasn't blackballed. Would've been well over 30,000
Legend man! One of the greatest scorers we ever seen 🐐One of seven player in history to reach 25,000 points, 6000 rebounds, 3000 assist, 1000 steals and 1000 threes made! He did what he could and has a 53% winning percentage for his career
Absolute Legend
Most overrated player ever...Melo only cared about money and getting his 30 points...he never made anyone better that he played with LeBron is a chump for celebrating this clown
I think they helped him take the step into retirement. We all need friends like that. Great player who does great things in the community.
His public speaking has really improved since the first time I heard him speak at the beginning of his NBA career. Good for him!👏🏽✊🏾
He was a kid then
To bad his game has deteriorated sooooo badly
Really 😳
@@danielpauley9113 🤡
@@danielpauley9113no df it didn’t
Fantastic tribute to one of the most overlooked and under appreciated players of his era 👏🏾
❤
Overated
@@KenMan-j1y 💯
Negative overrated half the time couldn't even lead his team to the playoffs and when he left and nuggets for the Knicks the first four years after the trade the Nuggets had the better record after he left he's an overrated High job that was a ball-stopper a ball hog and played no defense
He is waaaaaaaaaaay underrated and under appreciated it's crazy
Where would basketball be without this draft class 💯💪🏿
Facts
It was better before this draft class. Basketball has gotten soft like your emotions.
Boo, these 🤡s think they at the Grammys. NOT
It probably would have been better lol
Chris paul was in a different draft class
It's always an emotional feeling when speaking straight from the heart! 👏
Like 4 dudes growing up from childhood friends to Men real hoopers and Fans know Melo was like that this is a real friendship 💯
One of the best scorers this game will ever see, this man was a killer on the court. Love seeing Melo getting his flowers.
Overrated
Hoodie Melo is what we all needed
One of the top two baddest jab steps ever
lol
@IGcantstopfactsbreh 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
beautiful tribute, we love Melo !!!! ❤
It would have been perfect if Carmelo Anthony had won a NBA championship title in his NBA career. We shall see if Chris Paul and the Golden State Warriors can win a NBA championship title this upcoming season. Peace.
@@novellprice132 Im a huge warriors fan and I hope we can get it done this year and CP can win his first ring ( Won't be easy, but I'II always have faith in the dubs ) !!
Stay Melo😎
No "we" don't. Carmella is racist to Jeremy Lin
@@aerielkins5334 We shall see how the upcoming season unfolds. Every team would like to win it all in June of the following year. Referring to the NBA Finals held in June of the following year. We shall see who wins it all next. Peace.
At the age of 28, I think I’ve finally found those lifelong friends that love each other. Great to see nothing get in the way of their brotherhood
Where would the NBA be without this iconic and talented draft class
Props to the guys that gave Carmelo Anthony his flowers is very unfortunate that this man did not win an NBA championship, and he deserved to win one, but he is still one of the greatest offensive talents we’ve had in the NBA and he will be in the Hall of Fame one day
The banana boat crew!!! I'm a 90's baby and whilst I loved MJ, Kobe, A.I etc, this is the generation of basketball I actually remember watching as a pre-teen and teenager. Well deserved Melo!
I remember some years back when melo played for okc. He came to a local seafood spot I used to work at when I was in high school. He was the nicest dude. Took pictures with me and my friend and told us “y’all be cool”. Melo will always be one of my favorite players of all time! 🙏🏼
Melo always seemed like he was a chill genuine dude
This is beautiful. STAY ME7O.
Coming to an end to another amazing class of NBA stars. CP and Lebron last one’s standing from an amazing era.
That was a really cool tribute. So lucky I got to witness Melo’s skills as a Knicks fan. The 4 of these guys share a genuine brotherhood, respect to them
The league was so lucky to have this squad carrying it from the mid 2000s to like 2016/17
Very lucky
Melo looking like he don't really want to retire. He wasn't ready for this moment he still wants to hoop!
Well deserved Carmelo Anthony tribute. Thank you LeBron, D Wade, and CP3 for that. Great job by the person who edited the video as well.
Melo I'll never forget when I got your sneakers when you were on the Nuggets. White/Sky Blue/Yellow. It was my favorite sneaks. It was my first sneakers not bought from payless. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to watch you play all these years.
🙏🏼❤️
One of the best scorers in the history of the NBA! Real scoring machine.
This what you call real friendship beyond being a ball player
Melo looks happy and chubby. Live your life man! All of them are good role models for the young
If you a hooper it’s impossible not to love melo
These ESPYS are great. Happy Retirement Melo
Only award show I watch
That was a smooth speech not gonna lie 💯
Yeah not even written from the heart
Their apart of the boule society these dudes don’t care about you 💯
@@waitingforsimpsons The one in the green
@@waitingforsimpsons💀
Why does LeBron have on his aunties pearls? Did he let Dwayne wade or Russell DressBrook dress him?🤦🏾♂️
I really love the friendship between LeBron and Carmelo Anthony, ever since they met on the court as high school phenomenons, that friendship has transcended into their adulthood, and they still pull for each other, no jealousies I want no contentions just love and respect
Ngl he my hero I cried cuz I wanted him ring so bad. Watching this show me it’s really over.
i loved melo so much growing up, he was always my favorite player man. so sad to see him retire. Glad they gave him his flowers!
My favorite player to watch from Melo with the braids, to Melo with the Fade, to hoodie Melo dude been a true Hall of Famer...💯
CARMELO IS A LEGEND
Lmaooo
@@jampar8 You disagree? That’s cool. Because I’m laughing at you too! 🤡🤡🤡🤡
no ring, no mvp, no first all nba, made his team worst because he doesnt want his teammates to be better than him (knicks). Good player with trash attitude.
@@ndnd7614 Respected by every player he went against. Called a ‘bad mother****’ by THE Kobe Bryant. Might want to get a bit more nuanced in how you define legend, bro. What are you, a robot? 😂😂
It would have been perfect if Carmelo Anthony had won a NBA championship title in his NBA career. We shall see if Chris Paul and the Golden State Warriors can win a NBA championship title this upcoming season. Peace.
Being from the hood this made my eyes water 💦. I remember watching this man go crazy and winning that championship🏆 and being from the projects of NOLA right downtown
I like how Chris is just standing there on the opposite side 😂
Melo is one of those one of a kind people man his character with his game was dope
These guys are smooth! We have witnessed the changing of the guard from one generation to the next! ❤
And LeBron stills on top
One of the greatest players who haven't got a ring. God bless you Melo.
Might be thee best to never get one
Went past the 1st round just twice in his career LOL. Melo is overrated 🗑
@@jampar8Absolute hater detected. Go get a mental check on yourself
I disagree, I think Iverson is.
@@hasibchowdhury1742 AI definitely up there.
I love that each of the presenters focused on 1 aspect of who Melo is: the player, the philanthropist, and the man himself. All people are multifaceted, but not everyone can be great or even good at all those levels at the same time. It looks like Melo tried, and mostly succeeded at that.
I hope that we all strive to make all of our faces equally impactful in positivity.
Congratulations on a career well done, Melo. May your future accolades exceed your current ones.
All 4 of them is the definition of GOAT….no other group has showed how much they care outside of basketball….Salute
Beautiful presentation honoring Carmelo. He was a great player, especially when he played for the Knicks. I wish him lots of luck.😊
Its good to see those three strong men on the stage together.
Congrats Melo!
Stay Melo!
God Bless!!
Ran into Melo at the Black Star books and dvd spot on Lenox ave in Harlem he took pics with my son and gave him a lecture. My son is now playing college ball and focused on making the NBA. Thanks Melo
Its the Brooklyn way You Already......
These guys were the real definition of brotherhood stayed true to the game they loved so much never had anything bad to say about them in the league Melo you deserve your flowers 🌹🌹🌷🌹🌹 brother continue success 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Four incredible men on stage. I love to see it!
Three total pricks, and a short guy!
That was awesome great job guys giving Melo his flowers he deserves it
$1700 a week? I sure do
He doesn't want flowers, he want's something else :)
I love their brotherhood ❤.. saddens me that he never got that ring.
Dude the guy has never been to the finals. Lol
@@lailaready1851Chris Paul either

@@jarrensleezluis3878lol you must don’t watch basketball often its all good
Maybe He Will Win Them As Coach!
Melo was and is 1 of my favorite players. Growing up watching him was amazing. He was a force.
True Indeed He definitely was dominating on any court against any player He played against!
@IGcantstopfactsbreh only cause lebron 😭 they played the same position
Melo is literally my fav player, after he left I became a Tatum fan
We are glad to see these brothers back on stage, and yes, there is much work to do.
Forever my favorite player. Thank you thank you thank you for all of what you did on and off the court. Stay Melo
Omgoodness. No words for this. I teared up. Love it.
These four guys represented our current basketball and race . This is what real wrong with our society
That's a testament about Mello. Kobe said the same about him. So he must be a really good guy 🙏❤️💪
This man scored 28000 points in a phone booth. The God !!!!!
Melo will always be my all time favorite player, people used to clown me for saying that growing up cause he never had a ring but man was his game beautiful to watch.
This was 🔥🔥 you don’t see Melo getting his flowers everyday
Fr happy the espys gave melo his flowers. One of the great scorers ever for sure
After jordan era , these guys we watched and grew up watching them play in nba games was a honor, we were all lucky to witness the greatness of all these guys play great b ball . We honor and salute to u Melo. Thank u for the memories we watched with our family and friends.
Love these guys man and Melo been eating good since retiring awesome moment

I am definitely going to Miss Carmelo Anthony in the NBA and in the game of basketball and he has done lot in his career on and off the court.🏀💯
Brooklyn, Baltimore stand up for Melo ALL DAY EVERY DAY. I wish those 4 were going into the HOF together. I am up for 4 ceremonies !!!!! Thank you Melo. My top 5 Knick 4EVER !!!!!
Melo Deserve That Man Congratulations 🎉💪💯 🙏
Had the honor of meeting/ shaking Melo's hand last yr when he came to my city LOUISVILLE KY on his birthday. Told me Happy Birthday and everything. Been my 2nd favorite player after Kobe since the Syracuse days.
Melody everything Is well deserved you did it all for the game of Basketball even without of NBA Championships you have Gold Medals that's more International 👑🏆Stay Melo my Gemini Brother

That was an awesome tribute I loved it!
Nothing but the utmost level of love and respect for Melo. Forever proud of what he did for my hometown Syracuse Orangemen as he became a hero in our eyes through that very moment. Happy retirement, kick your feet up, brother and “Stay Melo”🙏🏾👑🏀
Melo national title game was the first ever collage game I watched at 10 years old and been a fan of him since. Grew up a laker and a Kobe fan but melo always was the man.
@IGcantstopfactsbreh And, you’re saying that like it takes away from or overshadows everything he has actually accomplished in his career? I mean, really? What’s your point? You’re lame for that
@IGcantstopfactsbreh My emotions? I simply asked you a question. One you still haven’t answered. Since you like facts, here’s some for you. Doesn’t matter whether it’s First, Second, or Third Team, the man’s still a multiple time All-NBA selection. 10 All-Star appearances, 3 time Olympic Gold medalist, 9th All-Time in scoring, and recognized as one of the Top 75 greatest players of all-time. He accomplished all of that and you want to say he’s trash? Your disrespect wasn’t needed. You’re an idiot
Still crazy to me melo isn't still playing. He could still get you 20. Also still can't believe the league denied us that time of seeing his amazing iso game because they were all trying to low-ball him.
All these years and Melo braids still on point salute!
The way these fellas love each other is simple amazing 👏🏾👏🏾💯
The NBA wanted to shut Melo7 down for and kinda blackballed him for a sec, glad he was still able to get his flowers now
this was literally my childhood, melo got his flowers 🔥
Most beautiful scorer in basketball history, pure class and chased his dream. An icon near the level of AI 🙏 respect
An icon near???!!! Near the level of AI bruh stop that!!! He’s had never been on the same level or near of AI
❤❤❤❤❤ these kids will never see melo but I'm old enough and bless to see him play ▶️
I can not be the only one wanting to hear the story of Dwyane and Melo tearin up bourbon street in 03
I really wish he had won a ring
Thanks for the memories Me7o 💯🏀#7
The Crew!! Congrats Melo
Unstoppable! That's helluva praise coming from the King.
Carmelo Anthony has been my fave player since I was in the 5th grade. I'm 31 now. I love melo Bron wade and the whole 03 draft. Brooklyn got nothing but love for you Bro! I don't follow these celebs but Melo was a true Inspiration and a hood goat
Some of the greatest basketball players of all time. And that one guy from those State Farm commercials
