Carmelo Anthony talked late Saturday night about playing a basketball game in New York City in mid-November, but not at the Garden and not in a Knicks uniform.
Anthony emerged from the FIU locker room at midnight Saturday pretty certain the NBA will cancel the first two weeks of the season today — no matter the last-hour meeting being arranged for last night between the two sides in the league’s labor dispute.
Nothing is set in stone, but Anthony believes he, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul and friends will stage a big exhibition in the Big Apple.
“We’re going to keep giving back,” Anthony said.
On his Twitter account yesterday, Anthony started banging the drums for his Big Apple charity-fest.
“Working on an epic exhibition charity game in NYC,” he wrote. “Showtime. I’m comin’ home.”
