Eh, I don't mind the on the court stuff nearly as much as the sheer stupidity of Melo trying to provoke an incident outside the locker room and at the team bus. He "calmly" waited at the bus with 10 guys forming a wall and cameras on him.
Nothing good can come of players doing that, he'll be fined at a minimum and I wouldn't be shock if he missed a game for it.
This. I'm sick and tired of fake "tough guy" behavior by pansy basketball players. If you're genuinely that torn up about something a guy has said and you had 10 minutes when you were next to him on a court, why not just fight him then?
Eh...You cant fight in the NBA? maybe thats why. you beat them playing basketball. and youre sick of fake tough guys? you mean like KG?
Let's say youre Carmelo Anthony.
All this waiting outside the lockerroom and bus stuff is clearly to make it look like you want to have a proper confrontation with this guy and appear like you don't care about sanctions yeah?
Its not like you will avoid a sanction for doing that anyway, despite it not being on the basketball court.
You had at least 10 minutes on the court to have a confrontation with this guy and you didn't, so obviously you're just severely butthurt about getting trash talked and having a crap night shooting the basketball.
About as fake as it gets.
