Business decisions in the NBA lexicon are typically reserved for ducking out of the way of an onrushing player setting up for takeoff for a dunk in hopes of avoiding being posterized.
On Tuesday night, Carmelo Anthony made a different kind of business decision.
Faced with the choice of either shooting an airball on his free throw attempt or taking a violation, Anthony made a business decision to choose what he felt was the least embarrassing of the two and accept the violation.
But it still made for a great laugh.
Late in the third quarter in the Lakers’ loss to the Warriors, Anthony went to the line for a pair of free throws after being fouled on a baseline jumper.
