4:06 J. Cole lookin around confused like he didn't foul him 😂😆
“You youngsters ever see someone get 30 touches on the block a game?”
man melo wasn't used right in his later years not sayin he could've been bron but he easily could've played 2-3 more years averaging 15-20 for a team
Them braids have super powers
Carmelo Anthony is the real king and the heavenly father of basketball !
The blazers need to trade nurkic, he's always injured. Get a guy a bit better than looney who does the dirty work and a few late-round drafts for him.
his trade value is low because he stays injured.
Nikola Vucevic
@@Tayte3 ahh man tht would be scary
Magic won't make that trade.
Happy to see him playing good basketball after all he had to take and ear from all the NBA doubters.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 we almost had him in Chicago before he signed that big contract in N.Y.
Welcome to the Lakers!
Love seeing Cornrow Carmelo, reminds me of watching him when I was a kid
Now imagine this with Russ bron and ad on the floor with him 😳
Been a Melo fan since 2015, and will forever will be. Go get em Melo🔥
Melo is a hooper. He’s being slept on heavy, maybe I’m bias because I seen him play for Denver but talent is talent regardless.
Reggie called it. "Uh oh!" I was so hyped watching this game. I was like, "THATS RIGHT MELO TAKE EM TO SCHOOL!" Lol
Carmelo failed
Nba Shitted on this man. Ruined his career. And if you think otherwise your a got dam hater and helped them do it.
Glad to see 1 of my favorite players of this generation go crazy in clutch time melo alltime best scorers in da game lets get hakeem melo 😜
Hall of fame 🔥
Only 11 men, 11 out of THOUSANDS of NBA players can say they’ve scored more points than Melo. Put some respect on his name!
enjoy melo, when this old generation will disapear, nba will be really dead
oh yhhh, no potential at all with zion, lamelo, morant, bridges, mitchell, lavine.... get your hating negative a55 out of here old boomer a55 why dont you look at younger players in a positive light for your own benefit. how does it serve you do be so depressing
@@aidanlovesit123 no, they got no charisma, dont compare kobe or kmart with those adam silver muppets, know nba history and come back talking to me
@@aidanlovesit123 those players you mentioned are nothing against the old ones. They have no impact and freaking soft 😂
