Carmelo Anthony has attempted 19 shots in Game 3 of the New York Knicks' first-round NBA Playoffs series against the Miami Heat. He has made just five of them. One of those five was this shot.


Two guys on him, both grabbing for the ball, and Anthony banks in the shot anyway. That’s strength right there.
