Carmelo Anthony: Last Year With Knicks Has Been ‘Emotional Rollercoaster’

BALTIMORE (CBSNewYork) — Carmelo Anthony said Wednesday he’s had to search for happiness again as a basketball player after the “emotional rollercoaster” the Knicks have put him through over the past year.

Anthony is hosting The Basketball Tournament, a March Madness-type event, in his hometown of Baltimore and received an honorary medal from the mayor.

After the ceremony, Anthony said he has not met with the Knicks this offseason, but he revealed he has spoken with new general manager Scott Perry.

Anthony said he needled Perry, a former Pistons executive, about Detroit selecting Darko Milicic instead of him in the 2003 draft.
