    Carmelo

    Carmelo more than anybody on the USA team (including Lebron) has been an absolute target. Part of it is the way he plays, his game...but he gets bodied up and hacked like no other player. I dont mind seeing him sticking up for himself.

I don't think you can label Anthony a hothead over this incident.
    Besides, we all know Carmelo is way too fast to get in a fight anyway (0:33 mark)

    From the games I've seen, I think Melo brings a lot to the team. Having said that, I just watched the play, and he clearly overreacted, and it's a good thing Kidd was standing right there.

    No hate, just love and some competitive predictability with a quality opponent. Also just childishly mad that noone gave me props for my very close final score prediction (103-81). If Boozer hadn't missed that final, sort of awful shot that he took, I would have been on the money exactly.
