When you've never had something, you want it worse than anything.
Carmelo Anthony
A lot of people think that as a player, during the lockout, you just have your whole day free. It's not like that - especially for me. I wake up everyday, train in the morning from 9 a.m. to about 2 p.m. Then I have a business meeting here, have to meet this person there, it's non-stop for me.
Carmelo Anthony
The new guys bring energy, intensity and emotion. The last couple games, they showed what they can bring to the team.
Carmelo Anthony
When I was young, I was sold on winning. I was always serious on the court. As I got older, I realized that it was just a basketball game. Just go out there and have fun.

It [boxing] helps my hand-eye coordination, my stamina, my footwork, and it gives me that competitive edge and drive. And in the ring it's mano-a-mano. So it helps you build that arrogance, that cockiness, that confidence in yourself that the man that stands in front of you isn't going to beat you, and that translates to the court.
Carmelo Anthony
I just want to get on the court.

The NBAs a Fortune 500 company. Thats how you look at it. And all the other Fortune 500 companies out there in the world, you dont see their CEOs and COOs going to work with white tees and baggy clothes and stuff like that. So I have to take that same approach.

If I were president? First thing I'd do is take care of the schoolteachers. I'm not saying we should start 'em out with six figures, but in some places they've got to be mother, father, brother, sister, and mentor. They're real important people. Let's give 'em a raise - and attract the best people to the job.
Carmelo Anthony
When I step on that basketball court, I'm thinking about basketball, I'm thinking about winning - but there's so much that goes into thought about how I'm going to open this game up to others. It's so much more than just basketball.
Carmelo Anthony
How can U fairly assess someone from the outside looking in ... majority of the times you will be wrong.
Carmelo Anthony
It's easier for me to let the game just come to me.
Carmelo Anthony
At this point in my career I'm not concerned about the money, it's about winning. Nothing else even matters.
Carmelo Anthony
I told my mom I would graduate. I owe that much to her and myself.
Carmelo Anthony
The fans are dying. We're dying.
Carmelo Anthony
I think people fail to realize that teams and organizations have been stacking teams since way back in the day.
Carmelo Anthony
What I do will be straight up. Management knows that.
Carmelo Anthony
It will work out, somehow. That's a hell of a duo right there, Marbury, Crawford and Houston.
Carmelo Anthony
Although you do look at the big picture, if you're dealing with the now, it can be kind of frustrating. You're losing basketball games, things not going the way you want it to go or should go, but at the same time we've just got to stay with it. Just stay positive, just stay focused, as a team, as a unit, because the ship easily can sink early.
