Melo to Sit

Something I discussed with OG yesterday on Twitter. He was spot on. I am shocked that Melo is sitting because of this teams existing lack of depth. I never thought Melo would sit himself. Kobe plays with torn ligaments.

If they lose it’s bad because they become 5 games under .500 if they win, well…

Carmelo Anthony will not play Friday night when the New York Knicks visit the Miami Heat, who are still waiting to see if Dwyane Wade’s sprained right ankle will allow him to return to the lineup.

Anthony is being shut down for a few days because of wrist, thumb and ankle injuries. Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni also says point guard Baron Davis is still not ready for his season-debut. Davis has been battling back problems.
