Sorry I tried posting the video from last night but it didn't work.
Melo just walked away from his team AGAIN. What a joke.
My friend texted me last night and told me that he thought he heard melo say
"Pretty sure I overheard melo saying "No matter what it's always my fault" lol"

He walked to the locker room because he had pain in his knee. How is that selfish? You privy to discussions him and woods on had before the game about if he felt discomfort? Any other player playing with an injury is gritty and tough. Melo does it and he is selfish?

Wow a Mokey sighting. Things just got real.
He needed his knee drained but tried to tough it out last 2 games. Tweaked it down 30 and left, now he's officially getting it drained.
Not really making a point here, fan. Pretty straightforward deal that happens every so often in sports. Melo you spin it as selfish, rg3 is a warrior. Don't be the guy constructing or buying into these stupid narratives, writers like Woj have ruined themselves trying to push crap like it, at least they have in the eyes of many.

This claim is disputed
On the front page of the forum, I could only see the words "Carmelo Anthony is the most" in the title of the thread. With having no knowledge of the incident, I was still able to complete the thread title. He was selfish at Syracuse too ... this is nothing new .....

He needed to have knee drained 2 days ago...it was Melo's decision to put it off until he played at his old team Devner...selfish is being kind.
Shame on the Knick for allowing Melo to make the decision.

Its simple. He could NOT PLAY
shocking i know... you know maybe put the teams future ahead of his ego to play in Denver
ponder that mokey
Deron knew he was doing his team a disservice by playing while hurt and he and the team thought it would be best for him to rest.

I gave him the benefit of the doubt the first time. But he and the team knows that it is going to be an ongoing issue. As a fan, im not sure how you can justify the team/player wanting to risk further injury just so the player can put his personal goals ahead of the team (playing in denver)... and now melo will sit for the rest of the road trip
the funny thing is, had melo not played the knicks would probably made the game a bit more respectable
and BOOM
Carmelo Anthony will get his right knee drained on Thursday and has no timetable for his return.
The Knicks will list him as day-to-day because that's what they do for everyone who has an injury on their team, but Anthony has no timetable to return. "It started stiffening up," Anthony said after he was forced from Wednesday's game in the third quarter. "Moving laterally, I didn't feel like I had any pop, any power." Anthony admitted he wouldn't have played if it wasn't his return to Denver, and in retrospect, it could prove to be a costly decision.
How does this compare in scale to a guy who can't walk refusing to get subbed out of a playoff game at the most important position in all of American sports? This happens all the time, guys try to fight through injury. Is it foolish? Yeah, but it happens. But to go into narrative calling one guy more selfish than another is biased and irresponsible. All these guys have been bred to so since they were 5 years old is to fucking compete until the wheels fall off, they know nothing else.

Why risk further damage at all when you're already in the playoffs and if you don't have him in the playoffs you have zero chance of winning a series.
