New York Knicks News: Carmelo Anthony Hits Back At Critics For Demeaning His Capabilities

New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony hit back at critics who have demeaned his capabilities as a superstar in the NBA.

In spite of being regarded as one of the most prolific scorers in the league and a seven-time all-star, the farthest that the 30-year-old Syracuse University product was able to go in the playoffs was still back in 2009, when he led Denver to the Conference Finals.

Meanwhile, he is still underachieving since he moved to the Big Apple in 2010.

Nevertheless, he is confident that his time will come, only that it should be sooner rather than later since he is not getting any younger.

"I know, personally, I'm there. It doesn't bother me," said Anthony.

"These (analysts) are all people that maybe never accomplish anything."

"They just sit back and write articles all day long about what they see. They're kind of living through us out there on the basketball court."

"I don't worry about me being put up there. I know night in and night out I'm gonna go out there and put my work in regardless of win loss or draw."

"I'm still going to go out there and be the best player I can be."

With the zen master Phil Jackson taking care of off-court business, along with the recent installation of Derek Fisher as head coach, the future looks bright for Melo.
