Carmelo Anthony has this spin move to the basket with a pump at the end, absolutely on lock! See how much success the Portland Trail Blazers had stopping this Melo special after the jump at the 0:21 mark, earlier this season.

It’s scary how precise Carmelo Anthony is with this sweet move.

When you shoot an Xmas promo at a high altitude, a variety of things can happen.  Uncoordinated dancing, the inability to hit a note and channeling that guy from Boyz II Men with the deep voice. If they shoot their next Xmas promo in Mexico City it’ll be legendary!

A week before the season started, Carmelo Anthony spoke with DJ Whoo Kid and Coach PR on RadioPlanet.tv about Starbury, Groupies, going toe-to-toe with the Lakers, LaLa, going corporate, the Red Hook projects, the Mike Tyson documentary his company (Krossover Productions) produced and a few other things. Melo is doing big things everywhere this season!

Check out the Tyson documentary trailer, after the jump.

I have never seen Carmelo Anthony in such great shape or this excited to play ball ever! When he threw down this mammoth dunk on the world of Paul Millsap, it was way more than two points. It was a sign of Melo taking names in the ‘09-10 season. What an awesome play!

Carmelo Anthony is suing his former business manager, alleging he misappropriated more than $2 million of the Denver Nuggets star’s assets. The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Sacramento, Calif., on Monday, alleges that Anthony’s former business manager, Larry W.

Harmon, and employees of Larry Harmon & Associates P.A., breached their fiduciary duties by transferring $1.75 million of Anthony’s money without his knowledge or consent to a company formed by Harmon, most of it in 2008.

It’s a pretty slow news day in the NBA, if Carmelo Anthony grew 80 feet tall and destroyed a few condos with some U.F.O’s, things would certainly pick up.

Oh wait…

What could go wrong with the Mavericks in this series simple has. With seconds left in the 4th quarter, Carmelo Anthony drains a three pointer to give his Denver Nuggets the win and a Sprewell hold on the series 3 – zip. All Mark Cuban could do was push a cameraman to show his frustration, but I haven’t check out his twitter page yet.

Hours later the NBA actually, admitted they made a mistake by not calling a foul on Antoine Wright to stop the play, but if he played to the whistle he could have at least contested the shot. That said, if you’re Antoine Wright don’t sweat the play Melo would have hit the smart dagger shot anyway.
