 | A Scoring Play. |
 | Genius? |
When asked for his expert opinion on what the New York Knicks needed to do to ensure their victory over the visiting Charlotte Hornets, commentator and former player Greg Anthony revealed that he thought victory could best be achieved with good defense and by scoring more points than the opposing team.
Anthony, who sources say is currently paid close to $200,000 annually by ESPN for his in depth on-air basketball analysis has proven in the past that his words generally hold true.
Before our game against the Celtics last week, Greg said that rebounding would be a factor in the outcome of the game, and that we needed to get as many boards as we could, said Toronto Raptors coach Sam Mitchell, Sure enough, they out-rebounded us significantly, and we lost. That guy really knows his stuff.
I just call them like I see them, a modest Anthony quipped, When youve been around basketball as long as I have, you get to know the game inside and out. For example, when three Indiana starters went down with suspensions following the Detroit Brawl, I was one of the first ones to say that it would hurt their chances of winning games. And I think we all know how that turned out.
Im definitely not wasting anyones time with what I say, Anthony continued, Speaking of which, if youd like a little car advice, I find that filling it with gasoline really improves the overall driving experience. You heard it here.
