Watch: LeBron And Carmelo Anthony Embrace Ahead of Blazers-Lakers Game

LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony played against each other last night. It was a special kind of rivalry, and they both enjoyed the incredible game on the floor. LeBron and Melo are great friends, and the shared an embrace prior to the game at Moda Center.

This embrace definitely puts a smile on our faces, and it’s always nice to see old friends compete against each other. It’s more than friendship. It’s a brotherhood. Well, LeBron says Melo is his brother, and we believe that he feels the same way about the king.

Although these two didn’t follow the same path in the NBA, they have tons of respect for each other. Both LeBron and Anthony were drafted in the 2003 NBA Draft. LeBron was the first option for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Anthony was the third pick for the Denver Nuggets. King James changed three teams in his professional career, and Anthony played for five teams.

This embrace is actually proof that Melo has no hard feelings for his friend. Many fans say that LeBron could have helped Anthony become a Laker. Truth is, LeBron couldn’t use his power to secure a deal for his old friend. He may be the best player in the world, but he isn’t a magician. The Lakers didn’t Anthony on the roster, and LeBron couldn’t change that. He gave his friend a blessing to come to Los Angeles, but that’s the only thing he could do.

LeBron has a high opinion of his friend. Anthony hasn’t played an NBA game since February, and King James is amazed by his determination to keep going. Although Anthony takes one small step at a time, he keeps going. In the game against LeBron and the Lakers, Anthony scored 15 points.

The Los Angeles Lakers have an incredible game this season, and they are getting closer to the playoffs. This was an incredible win for LeBron and Anthony Davis. These two proved everyone wrong. Doubters said that LeBron wouldn’t be able to lead the team to the playoffs. Some even said that Kawhi Leonard is better than him. Well, LeBron is the GOAT. Simple as that.
