Did Carmelo Anthony get police escort to Madison Square Garden (VIDEO)

Carmelo Anthony, who's finding it hard to receive any help from the big shots in the Knicks front office, finally got an assist from one organization — or didn’t he? 

On Friday night, the Knicks star cruised through New York City traffic-free after appearing to receive an escort from the NYPD, reported TMZ.

Anthony — who is facing surgery on his sore left knee — posted an Instagram video after 6 p.m. Friday that shows his car trailing a vehicle with blaring sirens and lights. Both cars drive against 34th Street traffic while avoiding the chaos of All-Star Weekend as Melo makes his way to Madison Square Garden.

"Ain't nothing like a police escort, boy, in all this traffic," Melo says during the 17-second clip.

Nothing like a police escort in all this traffic. 🙏🙏🙏

However, a New York Police Department spokesman had not heard that Anthony received an NYPD escort.

“As a policy, we do not give police escorts through traffic for celebrities,” the spokesman said.

Darko Milicic loses kickboxing debut due to bloody gash on shin (VIDEO)

Former NBA center Darko Milicic — a 7-foot Serb who spent 10 years in the league — lost his first kickboxing fight when he was disqualified after sustaining a nasty gash on his leg.

The pudgy 29-year-old's debut was cut short after one round of the exhibition match when he injured himself against fellow Serbian fighter Radovan Radojcic.

The World Kickboxing Association bout was halted in the second round on doctor's orders.

Milicic — probably most famous for being drafted No. 2 ahead of Carmelo Anthony — claims he'll be back in the ring.

"The next time, it will be better," he said. "I'm invincible."

Carmelo Anthony to critics: I'm not 'a loser': Report

Despite leading the New York Knicks to the worst start start in the history of the franchise, Carmelo Anthony fired back at his critics who called him "a loser." 

The Knicks forward tried to take the pressure of his new $124 million contract and superstar status off himself by claiming the team's 5-23 start — on pace to post its worst record ever after going 37-45 last season and missing the playoffs — doesn't boil down to a loser's mentality.

“I didn’t think it would be like this,’’ Anthony told the Washington Post via the N.Y. Post. “I’m like, why? Time goes by so fast and one thing you realize, you can’t control winning. It’s out of your control. You can control what you do. You can control your work ethic and your mindset when it comes down to winning. Everything has to be synchronized from ownership all the way down to the staff. Everything has to be in sync.’’

Anthony is in his 12th NBA season, but has advanced past the first round of the playoffs twice. And since joining the Knicks in 2010, only once. 

Anthony, who missed Thursday’s game in Chicago and is debating whether to sit for a couple of weeks to rest his chronic left knee injury .

“At the end of the day, we all know what the goal is and that’s to win a championship,’’ Anthony said. “I know that I’m a winner. Even though you might lose some games here and there, I know I’m a winner. I’ve won already. I’ve won off the court and on the court. I’m living the American dream. That’s winning to me. Nobody can say anything about [me] being a loser.”

Anthony, who missed Thursday’s game in Chicago and is debating whether to sit for a couple of weeks to rest his chronic left knee injury, admitted he hears the negative talk.

“Everybody has an opinion,’’ Anthony said in the interview. “ Everybody knows it all. They think they know you. You kind of become what the back page says you are. That’s messed up. I think just going through it, and you’ve seen the worst of the worst. Being here at the bottom and you can easily see how people will dismiss you, step on you and forget about you. This is the belly of the beast. New York will eat you alive if you let it.”

The history of losing has bothered Anthony to the point of frustration. A near brawl with teammate Tim Hardaway Jr. and reports that Anthony would consider waiving his no-trade clause rather than nixing a trade if the Knicks struck a deal to an attractive destination have fueled reports of a departure.

Anthony responded by saying he would have a "weak mind" to want out amid "a wall of adversity."

Still, you have to wonder how much of it he can take.

Carmelo Anthony will consider waiving no-trade clause: Report

Just when you thought it couldn't get any darker for the Knicks — with that worst start in franchise history and all — Carmelo Anthony says he'd be willing to take his game out of New York.

Just five months after all the hoopla surrounding the All-Star's free-agency and finally signing a five-year, $124 million contract with the Knicks, the N.Y. Post is reporting that Anthony would be open to dropping his no-trade clause if team president Phil Jackson strikes a deal with a team the high-scoring forward would like to play for.

Part of Anthony’s deal included the rarely used no-trade provision.

Anthony claims he has no desire to be traded, but his willingness to consider giving up the no-trade clause shows how frustrated he has become with what looks like a long season for the Knicks.

"He thought things would be better than this, but he still wants to stick it out for now," a source told The Post. "He trusts Phil, but I think he’s afraid of Phil."

The Knicks have lost 10 straight games — two shy of a team-record — and at 4-20 have the most losses in the NBA.

Combine Melo's failure to adjust to coach Derek Fisher's triangle offense and Wednesday's on-court scuffle with teammate Tim Hardaway and you know things at Madison Square Garden are falling off the rails.

Anthony, who is currently nursing a sore knee, can be traded beginning Monday — the unofficial start of trade season when all free agents and draft picks signed over the summer can be moved.

Knicks fans might suggest a few choice words for Carmelo's branding expert to label his client — including quitter.

Where's LeBron? At a Knicks game of course (PHOTOS)

This might be the closest thing to the Knicks actually getting LeBron James a perch on their bench, but at least there was a real winner sitting in Madison Square Garden on Sunday.

Looking more like Where's Waldo than King James, then Cavaliers star took in the Knicks 103-99 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers last night at the Garden.

And he showed New York fans that while the Nets might have Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton attending a game at Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Monday, Manhattan's team can still draw some royalty of their own — NBA royalty.

According to Carmelo Anthony, James took in the game on his off day as a way to show his “support” for their friendship.

Hopefully, that friendship is tighter than the Knicks defense. The home team lost after blowing a fourth-quarter lead.

Kyrie Irving's huge game helps put Knicks in record books (VIDEO)

The New York Knicks got into the record books Thursday night. Too bad it was not the kind of notoriety they hoped for. And, after falling to the Cavaliers for their sixth straight loss, the team is officially off to the worst start in Knickerbockers history.

Kyrie Irving scored a season-high 37 points, including a layup with 10 seconds left to lead the Cavs over the Knicks 90-87, dropping the reeling New Yorkers to 4-16.

Setting a new low for the franchise.

Carmelo Anthony had one of the worst nights of his Knicks career — going 4-for-19 — and couldn’t close the deal at the end as his miserable evening ended with a missed 3-pointer that rimmed out over LeBron James in the final seconds.

Irving carried the Cavs most of the night before James had five straight points late in the game that helped Cleveland pull it out. 

Here's the clutch teardrop by New Jersey's Irving:

To put Melo's night in perspective, teammate Quincy Acy finished the game with six more points. Yes, that Quincy Acy.

Trey Burke's buzzer-beater trumps Carmelo Anthony's trey with 2.3 seconds left (VIDEO)

Trey Burke made a buzzer-beating jumper from the corner to give the Utah Jazz a 102-100 victory Friday night over the Knicks at Madison Square Garden, despite 46 points from Carmelo Anthony.

Anthony, who looked like he had a game-tying three-point shot with 2.3 seconds left in the game, was trumped by Burke after the sharpshooting guard hit a corner jumper at the buzzer to hand the Knicks their seventh straight loss.

Anthony did all he could, including the Knicks' final 11 points, but in the end it wasn't enough.

"I looked up," Anthony said, "and I was like, 'No, please.' I just wanted it to go to overtime."

Here's how the final 2.3 seconds played out with J.R Smith's stunned pose saying it all for Knicks fans:

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:

Tim Howard wants to play for the Knicks (PHOTO)

U.S. World Cup goaltender Tim Howard wants to take his game from the pitch to the court and if you believe the international soccer star, he's ready to help the Knicks.

Howard wore a Knicks jersey and offered his athletic skills to the team via Twitter as Phil Jackson tries to rebuild the team with re-signed Carmelo Anthony and new coach Derek Fisher.

And if any team could use some serious D, it's the Madison Square Garden boys.

And it's not just a hoops dream.

Howard was a standout New Jersey high school basketball player and has a sort of six degrees of separation connection to NBA experience. 

The soccer star used to match up against Jay Williams, a blue-chipper for a rival high school before he went on to play at Duke and in the NBA. 

Although, someone might have to remind Howard that goaltending in his new sport isn't allowed.

Carmelo Anthony's Olympic bronze medal goes for $14K at auction: Report

While Carmelo Anthony looks to be in high demand around the NBA these days, it seems  the Knicks' free agent has just sold a little piece of himself for a measly 14 grand.

The bronze medal won by the star forward at the 2004 Athens Olympics has been auctioned off for $14,080, according to Inside the Games. The disappointing third-place medal was listed at auction house Julien’s Auctions. The buyer’s identity was not revealed.

The U.S. men’s basketball team beat Lithuania 104-96 to win bronze, while Argentina took gold and Italy won silver. It was the only time the American men didn’t win a basketball gold medal since professionals were permitted to compete in the Olympics.

Four years later in Beijing, the “Redeem Team,” which Anthony was also a member of, succeeded in their goal of winning back the gold. The 2012 London Games also saw a gold medal win for Melo and the American men. 

According to Julien’s Auctions, Anthony was unhappy with his team’s performance in Athens and “no longer cared to have [the medal] in his possession.” He then gave the bronze medal to a family member as a gift. The medal was put up for auction in May, with bids starting at $4,500.

Guess if you have two gold medals, a bronze is just tacky.

Melo says Joakim didn't try to recruit him to Bulls

Ever since ESPN reported that during the NBA All-Star Weekend, Joakim Noah told Carmelo Anthony that if he’s serious about winning a title, he should join the Bulls after he opts out of his Knicks contract on July 1 — the rumors have been swirling.

Anthony reportedly told Noah that Derrick Rose is his son’s favorite player, admired the team's style of play and asked what it’s like to play for Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau.

While the normally chatty Noah shrugged off the report as "gossip" at the Bulls shootaround on Friday, Anthony addressed the story after the Knicks 108-81 victory over the Jazz later that night, reported The New York Post.

And Anthony outright denied there was a recruiting speech pitched to him by Noah during All-Star weekend in New Orleans.

“I heard about that [report],” Anthony said after the Knicks’ win at Madison Square Garden. “Every day it’s a story. Every day it’s going to be a new story. I have no information about that. I don’t know how that story got out there, who started that story. I don’t know. I really don’t know what to say about it.”

Asked specifically if he had that talk with Noah, Melo, battling a cold, immediately replied in a hoarse voice: “No, not at all. I can’t have that conversation.”

Anthony, though, said he knows he'll be hearing those types of reports and rumors until his future is settled. He is expected to opt out of his Knicks contract and become a free agent at the end of the season.

“Without a doubt,” Anthony said of the distraction. “There’s going to be more stories coming out, more speculation. Everybody going to have their own take on different stories, so for me it’s I got to focus on playing ball and that’s it. Whatever stories [are] going to be out there, I can’t control that.”

Knicks coach Mike Woodson said on Thursday that any recruitment pitch to Anthony would violate NBA tampering rules.

And Thibodeau dismissed the story, saying, “It’s a bunch of nonsense. People just start throwing stuff out there and then they wait for everyone to respond to it.”

An NBA spokesman on Friday declined comment on the matter.

Now that those whispers have been put to bed, let the Phil Jackson talk begin.

Dirk Nowitzki gets the bounce at buzzer to beat Knicks (VIDEO)

Things only keep getting worse for the New York Knicks. Just when the they battled back against the Dallas Mavericks and  Carmelo Anthony tied the game at 108, Dirk Nowitzki forces a shot that bounces four feet above the rim and, while the buzzer sounds, miraculously drops in for the winner.

The Knicks had blown big leads in their last two games, giving away a 14-point advantage at Orlando and a 17-point cushion at Atlanta, collapses that coach Mike Woodson called "mind-boggling."

He'll call this one heartbreaking.




Anthony finished the game with 44 points while Nowitzki had 15 and the winner for the Mavs' third straight victory.

Clippers, Knicks considering Blake Griffin-Carmelo Anthony trade: Report

ESPN reports the Knicks have "discussed" the idea of proposing a trade to the Clippers that would send Carmelo Anthony to LA in exchange for Blake Griffin.

With the looming possibility of Carmelo Anthony departing New York as a free agent this summer, New York Knicks officials have discussed proposing a trade to the Los Angeles Clippers for Blake Griffin, according to league sources.

Sources say Clippers management has also had internal discussions about such a deal but that the clubs have not yet spoken to one another about a potential trade.

As of now, neither team is certain that it would make an Anthony-for-Griffin trade, the sources said, and talks still in the rumor stage.

The idea that New York would consider this isn't shocking. The team's been a disaster despite the surprising win over the Spurs Thursday and with Anthony a prospective free agent, they have to consider their options. 

While the high-scoring Anthony is likely to lean towards re-signing to keep the $30 million the team with his rights can offer him, there's also the possibility he leaves, or worse yet, opts in for next season and then pulls a similar trade demand as the one that landed him in New York.

But for the Clippers, it's a much more complicated problem. Their problem isn't offense, it's interior defense. Moving Griffin for Melo doesn't necessarily help them in the areas they need. However, a deal involving DeAndre Jordan along with Griffin gives the Knicks a young core and a move for Tyson Chandler along with Melo gives the Clippers the rim protector they've been desperate for. 

The close friendship between Chris Paul and Anthony should not be overlooked either, or the reports that Griffin and Paul don't get along.

Mike Woodson still expects Knicks to win division: Report

Only a day removed from the 29-point Christmas Day rout by the Oklahoma City Thunder, Mike Woodson, treated the New York Knicks’ current struggles like a long forgotten memory and predicted a second straight Atlantic Division title following practice on Thursday.

“We won it last year,” the beleaguered head coach said, “and I expect us to win it this year.”

Woodson’s confidence was based on the fact that the 9-and-19 Knicks play in a division that is so weak that they are 6-6 in their past 12 games. Forgetting that most of those wins have come against some of the worst teams in the NBA helped Woodson keep his sunny outlook. 

Woodson asked himself rhetorically, “Do I see some light at the end of the tunnel?” and answered, “I do.”

The mediocrity of the division and a freakish amount of injuries to key players have probably helped excuse Woodson from losing his job—for now.

"The bottom line is I'm the coach of this team," he said. "I have very high standards in terms of what I do and what I expect players to do. And it starts with me."

The Knicks have a chance to gain some ground Friday night when they begin a home-and-home with the division-leading Toronto Raptors at Madison Square Garden.

Woodson knows that the 11-15 Raptors are just three games ahead of the Knicks and his team can make a big statement this weekend.

But it's still unclear if Carmelo Anthony, who didn't practice because of a sprained left ankle that kept him out of the Christmas Day game, will play. Woodson called him "day-to-day."

"Eventually we’ll get healthy and we’ll see how it all plays out," Woodson said. "The beauty about all of this that we’re going through is nobody’s running away with it in our division and I’m pushing our team to win our division still."

Melo rips Knicks' lack of effort after blowout loss

It didn't take long after fans booed the New York Knicks' fifth straight loss at Madison Square Garden, that a disgusted Carmelo Anthony said it looked as if the team wasn't even trying during a lopsided 110-90 loss to the Atlanta Hawks.

"We ain't playing worth a s--- right now," Anthony said. "We got to play harder. 

"I am disappointed too in all of our effort. We are just not getting it done. It ain't nothing that Coach [Mike] Woodson is doing [or not doing]. It ain't got nothing to do with X's and O's out there on the basketball court. We are not getting it done from an effort standpoint. It's like we are not even trying right now."

Even though Anthony says Woodson is not to blame, Knicks fans still briefly chanted "Fire Woodson" in the third quarter.

After the Knicks dropped to 3-and-6, Anthony did not want to discuss orange uniforms or the Knicks City Dancers in the locker room. The frustrated forward was clearly focused on the fact that the Knicks had allowed the Hawks to shoot 56.4 percent and score 48 points in the paint. He said the club isn’t "trying." Anthony even suggested the team may soon dig themselves too deep a hole to recover.

"I’m disappointed in all our effort," Anthony said. "We’re not getting it done from an effort standpoint. It’s like we’re not even trying right now.

"We can’t worry about the boos."

The last time the Knicks had lost five in a row at home was February 2010, when they broke down the team for cap space with hopes of landing LeBron James in the free agency sweepstakes.

That was then but Melo thinks the Knicks time is right now.

"I can’t believe it," said Anthony, soon to be a free agent this summer. "I don’t even know what to say. I’m in awe. I don’t know how to explain it. I don’t know If there is an explanation.

"It’s surprising. To come into the season with a mindset of being better than we were last year and to be where we’re at right now. I know it’s 3-6, but we got to turn this around quickly. It’s a nasty feeling within the team."

And he pinned it squarely on the defense.

"It ain’t got anything to do with making shots and missing shots," said Anthony, who finished with 23 points on 8-of-21 shooting with 12 rebounds. "We’re just not getting it done on the other end. We’re not defending, giving any effort."

Anthony sounded as if he’s hoping for a turnaround before it's too late.

"I know it’s early in the season, but at the rate this is going, we’re going to be in too deep a hole to dig out," he said.

James Dolan guarantees Knicks win onstage with band

The New York Knicks were wailing the blues after getting blown out by the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday afternoon, but that didn't stop the team's owner from singing a happy tune later that evening.

James Dolan tried to keep everything about the music on Sunday night as his band JD and the Straight Shot performed inside The Cutting Room, but couldn't help a few comments about his teams inside Madison Square Garden a few blocks away.

"Thanks to the Rangers who brought me a win," Dolan said on the nightclub's stage.

"Unfortunately the basketball (team) couldn't do it today. We're going to win the next game, that's a guarantee."

The frontman for the blues and classic rock band didn't even mention his team by name.

After hearing that The Boss had guaranteed a Knicks’ victory, after he sat through their 31-point blowout loss to the Spurs, Carmelo Anthony knows that the pressure is on.

"I guess we’ve got to win," Anthony said Monday when asked by the N.Y. Daily News about Dolan’s boast. "The owner said it. I guess we got to make it happen. We want to win. If he said it, he’s put the pressure on us to go out there and win the game."

The 2-and-4 Knicks square off against the Hawks on Wednesday night.

Knicks forward Metta World Peace and Rangers GM Glen Sather were among the notables in attendance at the midtown club.

Dolan might end up singing "My Knicks' Defense Is So Cold, It Must Be Next To My Ex's Heart" Wednesday night.

James Dolan doesn't want Knicks City Dancers to dance: Report

James Dolan is unhappy about the New York Knicks poor start, and is apparently taking it out on the Knicks City Dancers.

The Knicks owner was “ready to erupt” during Sunday’s lopsided loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to the New York Daily News. After his team lapsed into a 23 point second quarter deficit, he reportedly went stomping across the new Madison Square Garden Chase Bridge looking for his new general manager Steve Mills.

After finding Mills in a suite, Dolan laid down the law for the game-day entertainment, by ordering the team’s dancers to stop dancing.

Dolan reportedly told Mills to reduce the dancers' role to mainly tossing T-shirts into the crowd.

“Why? No one seems to know, except the standard answer is usually ‘that’s Dolan,’” the Daily News’ Frank Isola wrote about the owner's Footloose edict.

Dolan reportedly told coaches and executives before this season that he expects nothing short of an NBA title in 2013-14. New York is off to a 1-2 start and apparently Dolan's new hands-on approach to reach that goal begins by becoming Reverend Shaw Moore? According the News, the 13 season-old troupe performed only one routine on Sunday.

“There’s no need to panic,” Carmelo Anthony said on Monday. “It’s three games into the season. We’re still trying to figure a lot of things out.”

Try figuring out Dolan first.

Carmelo Anthony on leaving Knicks: 'I'm not going nowhere'

Carmelo Anthony can become a free agent after the upcoming season, and has made it clear he doesn't want to talk about it. But he gave the strongest indication yet that his plans include re-signing with the Knicks when the season is through.

"I'm not going nowhere," Anthony said during an interview Tuesday with Bloomberg Television's "Market Markers." 

"That is one of the reasons why I wanted to come here to New York, just so I could take on those pressures and those challenges," Anthony said. "A lot of people do not like to deal with the pressure. A lot of people do not know how to deal with the challenges they face. To me, it is everyday life."

Anthony is due to make $23.3 million in the 2014-15 season. If he were to opt out, the Lakers likely would pursue the All-Star, but the Knicks can offer him significantly more —including a five-year deal. Under the collective bargaining agreement, the most the Lakers could offer is four years and roughly $96 million. Anthony could get a maximum five-year contract worth about $129 million from the Knicks, who can start negotiating with him in February.

Money aside, Anthony pushed for the February 2011 trade from Denver to be in the New York limelight and try to help the Knicks win their first championship since 1973. He led them to 54 wins last season and their first Atlantic Division title in 19 years, but they lost to Indiana in the second round.

The 29-year-old Anthony remains committed to bringing a title to Madison Square Garden.

"That is one of the reasons why I wanted to come here to New York, just so I could take on those pressures and those challenges,'' Anthony said. "A lot of people do not like to deal with the pressure. A lot of people do not know how to deal with the challenges they face. To me, it is everyday life.''

Still, Anthony doesn't want his future or free agency to be an everyday discussion with the New York media. He told The Associated Press at a Sept. 11 charity event Wednesday that he would not address either issue during the season. "I'm just not going to do it,'' he said. "I'm going to let everybody know the first day that I'm not going to talk about it.''

The Knicks were the No. 2 seed in the East last season behind eventual NBA champion Miami, but they lost veteran players Jason Kidd and Rasheed Wallace. Their big offseason additions this winter were Andrea Bargnani, Metta World Peace and Beno Udrih —making the team somewhat younger.

Anthony and the Knicks could be looking up the rebuilt Nets and improved Bulls and Pacers but Melo still believes his team is still a front runner.

"I actually see this team being better than last year,'' said Tuesday. "That's just my opinion, that's the way that we feel. And if we feel that way as a unit, then there's nothing that can come between us.''

USAF Airman throws down windmill dunk in fatigues and boots at USA Basketball Showcase (VIDEO)

At Thursday's USA Basketball Showcase in Las Vegas, the biggest dunk highlight didn't come from a group of NFL players that included Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis, and Paul George. Instead, it came from Nathaniel Mills — a member of United States Air Force.

At one of the scrimmage's TV breaks, the Douglaston, Ga. native came onto the court in full uniform — camo-fatigues, combat boots, etc. — and pulled off a one-handed windmill dunk to the cheers of the crowd and NBA stars including Knicks All-Star Carmelo Anthony.

"You should see me without fatigues and without boots," the Airman told reporters after he took flight.

We believe it.
