This is money well spent

You’ve seen that video numerous times, so there’s no need to watch it again. If you should choose to do so, however, you’d be well served to take a long look at Carmelo Anthony’s flailing suckerpunch one more time.

It’s that form - and the subsequent movement in the opposite direction - that is probably the motivation behind this:

To stay special, Anthony said he and Smith have been doing extra shooting on non-game nights at the Pepsi Center. Anthony also said he plans to aid his conditioning by taking boxing classes during his layoff.

“I’m ready to start some boxing classes,” Anthony said. “I did it during the summertime just for my stamina. It really helps with stamina, plus it gets stress out, too, on the punching bag. At least I can hit something I can’t get in trouble with.”

Ha. Haha. Stress. What ever happened to a good old fashioned stress ball? Come to think of it, this looks like a perfect present for Nate Robinson.
