NBA power forward for the Denver Nuggets. Was the 3rd overall pick in the NBA Draft, which also boasted such stars as now-teammates Lebron James and Dwayne Wade. He is often just referred to as "Melo" by fans and sportscasters. Melo is consistently one of the top scorers in the league, usually averaging around 28 points per game.
In an incident which landed him with a 15 game suspension, Carmelo sucker-punched Mardy Collins of the New York Knicks after then-coach Isiah Thomas encouraged his team to foul hard due to his perception of the Denver Nuggets running up the score late in the game. Because of the suspension, Denver traded for guard Allen Iverson, and then subsequently had two of the highest scorers in the league on one team. The move ultimately did not work out and resulted in the trade of Iverson for Chauncy Billups.
Melo was then seen in the league as a bully and a thug, furthering the thuggish bad boy image of the Denver Nuggets.
He is on Team Jordan where he has numerous shoe and clothing lines. He also won a national championship at Syracuse University his freshman year, which has lead many to believe he has the ability to do the same on the professional stage.

Get the Carmelo Anthony mug.Very talented, but reputedly lazy NBA forward for the New York Knicks. Polished, effortless scorer that keeps a level head in high stakes games, but frequently only shows up on the offensive end of the floor. Flashed his full potential during the 08-09 playoffs, but isn't always inclined to use it. Blew up what had the makings of a tough, talented team in the Nuggets with Billups with his demands to join the Knicks (which has a reputation for questionable decisions). Will have to find a way to tailor his game to Mike D'Antoni's all-offense playbook, which hasn't gotten anyone to NBA title yet. On-the-floor-gifts suggest hall-of-fame potential, but may not be mixed with the work ethic needed to fully use them.
Carmelo Anthony looked like he'd eaten to many marshmallows before the game he was late to, but still dropped 42-15 plus a game winner on Dirk Nowitski in the game.

Get the Carmelo Anthony mug.An expression used to break an awkward deathly silence.
Originally used at Halloween, when creepy boys would sit on their steps and decide not to respond after the customary "Trick or Treat." The silence thereafter was broken by the spanish phrase "Hay Caramelos?" asking "Is there candy?"
This phrase is also used in the present day now to express acknowledgement of a particularly awkward situation.
