I’ve been on the Carmelo Anthony bandwagon since his Syracuse Oragnemen days and dude keeps getting better. Every night, Melo is usually too fast for your bigs, and usually too big for your smalls.  On his way to 43 points and a 103 – 101 Nuggets win over the Mavs, he worked those advantages again to perfection.

In this clip, Anthony is a blur to the bigger Nowitzki as he dribbles around Dirk and hits the elbow jumper. Who wants to play Melo and the Nuggets in the first round? Nobody. Who wants to play Dirk and the defenseless Mavs in the first round? Everybody!
