The Carmelo Anthony Hall of Fame debate has become one of NBA Twitter’s favorite arguments. One group of observers might say he is one of the most decorated players ever. Anthony is a 10x All-Star, 3x Olympic gold medalist, NCAA champion and was a McDonald’s All-American. While another group might say that he is a bad team player after notable breakups with the Nuggets, Knicks and recently the Thunder. The Crossover staff breaks down Anthony’s case for the Hall of Fame and decides if he is a lock for Springfield.
Carmelo is a Hall of Famer by one simple measure: he’s scored the 19th-most points in NBA history.
