Carmelo Anthony's silver top hat creates Internet stir (PHOTOS)

The New York Knicks got blown out by the Brooklyn Nets, 110-99, Friday night at the Barclays Center. But after the game, it was hard to tell what was the bigger story: the lopsided loss to their crosstown rivals or Carmelo Anthony's silver and blue top hat.

One thing was for sure, it didn't take long for the Internet to light up with their own opinions and memes concerning Melo's fashion sense:

Next time Melo, at least consult with Walt Frazier before donning the pimp headwear — or stick to sweatbands.
