Carmelo Anthony To New York: First National TV Game With Knicks Could Be Vs. Miami Heat

Unless a broadcaster decides to change their TV schedule between now and then, Carmelo Anthony will make his national debut as a member of the New York Knicks during Sunday night’s game against the Miami Heat. Tipping off at 8 pm ET on ESPN in Miami, that’s gonna be a monstrous event. Even if it is only being played in front of Miami fans.

Anthony’s first game with the Knicks should be Wednesday’s Madison Square Garden matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks.

For the past several years, the Knicks have been the expected destination for any number of stars ranging from LeBron James to Melo, with their only major acquisition being Amare Stoudemire. They’ve been very much a part of the stories of each big name on the move.

Oh yeah, and Melo is best bros with James and Dwyane Wade, recently implying he’d like to escalate their relationship into a conference rivalry.
