Carmelo Anthony has yet to win an NBA championship, and last season he failed to make the playoffs with the New York Knicks. It seems that's holding him back, at least in his mind anyway. The star has been one of the best in the game for years, yet he is often forgotten about, with Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant and LeBron James receiving far more praise than he does. He is a seven-time All-Star, and he is often a top scorer in the league, yet he doesn't feel like he's respected enough and he's hit out at everyone in the process of explaining why. Read More »

Will the injury-prone Irving recover in time for the final, if USA get there? Read More »
