Article Assigment

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/writers/chris_mannix/04/08/knicks.bulls/index.html

      The Article that I read is about how Carmelo Anthony of the New York Knicks had a season high 43
Carmelo Anthony's season-high 43 points kept the Knicks in line for a playoff spot. points against the first place team in the Eastern conference Chicago Bulls. The author of the article states that this is what Carmelo should be doing for the rest of the season. Which I agree with the author because since they Knicks are in 8th place in the Eastern conference they need to try and win if they want to stay in the playoff picture since the Milwaukee Bucks are looking to pass the knicks to be in the playoffs.
      Ever since Carmelo was traded to the Knicks last year he has been having bad moments according to sports illustrated. But on April 8 against the Chicago Bulls Carmelo helped the Knicks to defeat the Bulls. This is one of his good moments. Which also shows something. Earlier in the season fans were saying that Carmelo was hogging the ball to much. This shows that Carmelo hogging the ball is a good thing.
      This also shows that if the Knicks stay in 8th place at the end of the season the Knicks will have to face the bulls in the playoffs. There showing that their able to beat the bulls and possibility defeating the bulls to go to the 2nd round. Also shows that just Carmelo he can help the Knicks defeat the Bulls without Jeremy Lin. When Jeremy Lin comes back( Which won't be in the 1st round) the Knicks will be able to go further with Carmelo and Jeremy.
      In the end Carmelo is showing that him hogging the ball can help the Knicks and their hopes into getting into the playoffs.
