Melo-dy..........Denver State Of Mind

Carmelo Anthony got his wish and is playing in the greatest basketball arena in the NBA, Madison Square Garden. All summer we had to hear how bad you wanted to play for New York. In 18 games since Denver traded you to the Knicks have been avg at best. You made the playoffs yes, but I credit that to Amar'e Stoudemire. In your first playoff game as a Knick you managed to pick up 2 fouls in 5 minutes. Rough start aye? I'd say so. You poured in 15 pointS, 5-18 peformance that would make any Knick fan sick. People outside of Denver over the years have called you a ball stopper. Your 2-8 shooting from 3pt land proves that. Then with the game on the line and down by 2, you took a 28 foot 3pt shot. Not the smartest play ever but far from the dumbest. You played like LeQuit played in the Boston series last year. NO HEART. You had no "swag" or did you leave that Melo in Denver? I know you will bounce back in Game 2, but this wasnt the "State Of Mind" New York wanted to be in after Game 1................
