Carmelo Anthony joins Stephen A. Smith for an exclusive interview on First Take to discuss his departure from the Houston Rockets. Carmelo details how he was caught by surprise when GM Daryl Morey told him he was "no longer needed" on the Rockets, which he says was "deeper than basketball." Melo adds that Chris Paul and James Harden did not know about his departure, and does not think Mike D'Antoni was involved.

You're right he's strong suit is iso post up ball which is a lost art in today's game but to say Melo can't be a playmaker from that spot is kinda a stretch...here's the thing when Melo goes to work with his iso post up game he not used to look to pass simply because hes so skilled from that area of the floor he can usually get a bucket and that's how it was for so long but now with the way teams play now on defense that doesn't work I think if a team or coach sets things up Melo can be uber effective as your leading bench scorer

@TandemKnights 4 года назад

If Melo is so good, why hasn't LeBron picked him up in L.A.? The bottom line is that Melo is a selfish individual that put money and his stats above everything else, not the virtues of a winner or a champion. He played zero defense, his man went right around him and despite being able to occasionally score, the Rockets had a negative efficiency rating while he was on the floor. He is delusional that he still has game and too proud to play in China. The guy is a disgrace and this interview is a misrepresentation of the facts. Melo is out there right now for anyone that wants him, why is nobody moving?

Look at the last 3 situations that Melo was in. He's getting a lot of the negative rep that was the organizations' fault. He came from the Knicks, OKC and then Houston. New York has dysfunction all over. OKC people questioned if other stars can win with Russ. Houston had issues with James Harden wanting to run iso ball, while CP3 is more of a traditional guard. There were issues in all 3 organizations before and after Melo was there, so to even blame Melo for all 3 situations going bad is just unfair to him.

@thekongsports2702 4 года назад

Perhaps he does - my all-time fav NBA player is Patrick Ewing and as a hardcore No. 33 stan, I hated the fact that Ewing was a "black hole" who hardly passed to his teammates but guess what? He was a center who was a beast on the defensive end and big men aren't known to be passers...Melo -on the otherhand, has all the tools to be a great passer and yet, he's a black-hole who isn't a warrior on the defensive-end...so you tell me, “Deserves got nothing to do with it.” - William Munny a.k.a.

2 things from this segment of the interview: 1. I have a serious issue with ESPN showing only Melo's misses during his time with Houston, what message are ypu trying to send to the public? 2. Why is Daryl Morey telling Melo he isn't gonna make it on the rotation? isn't that D'Antoni's job since he is the coach?

@MrElephantBeach 4 года назад

I agree with the first part, but it's possible that D'Antoni didn't even want him in the first place and told Morey that it's his problem if things aren't working out.
