OKLAHOMA CITY -- Putting his head down and wiping his hands across the front of his jersey, Carmelo Anthony walked slowly off the court toward the tunnel after missing a potential game-tying 3 at the buzzer against the Portland Trail Blazers in a 108-105 loss on Sunday.
It bookended what has been a tough week for Anthony, beginning Tuesday in Boston with two misses at the free throw line that would've iced a win and ending with a brutal stretch against the Blazers that featured back-to-back, wide-open, 3-point misses, a turnover with seven seconds left and the final 3 before the buzzer.
