Carmelo Anthony has gained his induction in the Hall of Fame. Many times.
This weekend, in Springfield, when Carmelo Anthony slips on the orange jacket and joins the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, he will have earned that point. Many times.
• He gained it probably having the best serial season of the college ever, bringing Syracuse to a national championship.
• He earned him by winning three Olympic gold medals with the United States basketball, establishing 13 Olympic records along the way and being in the conversation for the largest international player in America ever.
• He gained it being one of the most prolific markers that the NBA has ever seen, the foundation of a legendary NBA career.
Starting from this autumn, you can get into play all that wisdom while Carmelo Anthony joins the NBC transmission team while the association returns to the NBC e Peacock.
‘Melo’s NBA Hall of Fame Case
That part of ‘Melo’s NBA Hall of Fame obtained a strange rejection on social media, as if Anthony’s NBA career alone would not have made him a first Hall of Famer.
Perhaps it is a seed that has been planted with some of his former coaches – George Karl and Phil Jackson, in particular – calling “Melo for having dominated the ball too much or not playing enough defense during his career. Maybe there were fans who did not like the dominant style of Anthony and the physicality of his game. Maybe it is because Anthony was the choice n. 3 in the draft of the 2003, and some tried to advertise a rival. “Magic Vs. Bird “with Lebron James who has never materialized in the field (and remain close friends). Maybe they are online trolls that do only what they do for attention. Whatever the reason, even Karl-The coach of the Nuggets who had a long-standing feud with Anthony-Testa saying that it is an undisputed renowned room.
The insertion of the Hall of Fame of Melo is deserved this weekend.

Watch Anthony’s NBA curriculum:
• 22.5 points and 6.2 rebounds of a match in 19 NBA seasons
• Six-time All-Nba
• 10 times all-star NBA
• 10 ° of all times in marked points (28,289)
• 2013 NBA score sample
• Member of the 75th anniversary of the NBA member
• Finished among the top 15 in MVP by voting six times
All this does not even have him who raises the Knicks organization in Dark Times, or the cultural impact he had on the League. The only blow can be “has not won a ring”, but it is not worthy of exclusion. Winning a title requires much more than being a single star player, it is a question of being in the right organizations at the right time with the right teammates and a little luck. Perhaps not everyone joined Anthony, but does not decrease his NBA career.
‘Melo to the Olympics, in Syracuse
No dissipated the myth “Carmelo is a ball pig” like watching Melo Olympic.
Surrounded by teammates of the elite of which he could trust, Anthony became the final team player-Sicuramente could still get a bucket, but he also played inside the up-time system and also made his teammates go. He found his pace.
The debate on the greatest male basketball player in the United States ever on the Olympic stage is between Anthony and Kevin Durant. That’s all. Which alone could be worthy of Hall of Fame.
Then there is college, in which Anthony probably had the largest serial season in the history of the NCAA circles, bringing Syracuse to the national title.
In his season with Orange, Anthony has scored 22.2 points, 10 rebounds and 2.2 assists a game on average. He put on those numbers efficiently, despite the defenses they launched everything they could.
It combines all this and there can be no doubt. Some NBA fans forget that this is the “Basketball Hall of Fame” – what happens internationally, also what happens to college and high school.
However, even if this were a Hall of Fame only NBA, Carmelo Anthony would have been devoted to the first vote. Without a doubt. Suggest otherwise is just a troll.
