Carmelo Anthony Aides Hurricane Sandy Relief In Brooklyn
Carmelo Anthony, East, New York Knicks | Mack | 11/10/2012 2:41 PMHurricane Sandy struck a nerve for Carmelo Anthony, and not only because he represents New York, but because he was born in Brooklyn and apart of a community that was devastated by the natural disaster. Thursday, Anthony stepped out into the community, visiting the Red Hook neighbourhood of Brooklyn to hand out boxes of food and housing supplies to those in need. As his ‘Carmelo Anthony Foundation’ teamed up with ‘Feed The Children’ and ‘Metro Ministries’, they were able to deliver 500 boxes filled with food and cleaning supplies to a housing project on Columbia Avenue, a block away from where he lived as a child in Red Hook.
ESPN NY:
“I wanted to step up to the forefront,” Anthony said to a small group of reporters on the scene. “We all know what Sandy did to our city, especially to Brooklyn, and to Red Hook, with us being right here on the water. It hit us pretty bad, so I feel like I’m the face of Red Hook and I wanted to come back and give back to the place I grew up.”
“I’m one of them, I was once one of them,” he said. “I grew up running around with a lot of the older guys as a little kid, so for me to come back and to help and give out house supplies and things like that, that’s the least I can do, especially at a time like this.”
Melo is the 
It does have to do with comparisons for most, because if you read the posts, he's labeled a non-star, a perennial playoff loser, and recently "not a legitimate starter". Folks constantly bring up Lebron, Wade, CP3, and Dwight (the last two, who, last time I checked, haven't won shit in the way of chips)
It's almost always denigrated (for most of those identified above) into fond, wistful memories about our belovedly mediocre yoots of the past, and comparing a scorer to the god of "flexibility and cap space". Dreams of great, late first round draft picks that never were. And most likely, given the Knicks history of recent drafts, never would have been anyway.
So maybe it's not hate. That might be harsh. But the whining continues (however, some of it is the result of mindless baiting) despite the fact our resident evil Satan incarnate is leading the team in blocks. Which, one of you will undoubtedly point out in the next thirty seconds, is only the result of a such a small sample size 
All I know is, tkf and I agreed on something. Actually related to the Knicks. So, rest easy fellas, there is a God!
Look at him being a box-stopper, the guy on the truck is wide open yet Melo looks him off. I had enough of this guy, if that were Gallo the box movement wouldnt have gone stagnant.
