00:00Every morning you have two choices. You can continue to sleep with your dreams or
00:07wake up and chase them. For Carmelo Anthony there was only one answer and it
00:21came as easy to him as putting the ball in a basket. Now from the moment that
00:25Melo burst on the scene at Syracuse University and across the next two
00:29decades he would never give up the pursuit and continue to chase greatness.
00:34Along that journey Carmelo who was from the Red Hook houses in Brooklyn and the
00:40Murphy and the Murphy homes of West Baltimore and for those of you who don't
00:47know where that is it's about 3,000 miles east of Beverly Hills which you'll hear
00:54about it momentarily established himself as one of the most gifted and prolific
01:00pure scorers in all of basketball.
01:05The game is easy when the ball is in the hands of Melo.
01:14Carmelo Anthony knocks it down.
01:17Oh, what a goal by Carmelo Anthony.
01:20And chanting and crawling the crowd.
01:23This guy, folks, is a scorer's scorer.
01:27Melo, oh wow!
01:29Canvers headed to the Western Conference Finals.
01:32Turn, goal pedal.
01:33Melo Anthony.
01:34What else you got?
01:37Before becoming one of the NBA's most prolific scorers, Carmelo Anthony was a
01:43freshman sensation at Syracuse University.
01:45He was so physical, so unusual for a freshman to carry a team to a national
01:52championship.
01:53He really took over in the final four.
01:56Syracuse is your national champion.
02:00He entered the NBA with more fanfare as part of the iconic draft class of 2003.
02:06Upon joining the Denver Nuggets, he led them to seven straight playoff
02:10appearances, including the conference finals in 2009.
02:13He has so much in his bag.
02:16Gettens you in that triple threat, jab you, race, jab you, jab you, hit you with a
02:21a shoulder.
02:22He can score anywhere in the gym.
02:28Arriving in New York in 2011, Carmelo brought a new level of excitement to
02:33Madison Square Garden.
02:34That shot is good!
02:36Carmelo Anthony with the greatest scoring game in Knicks history.
02:40He's got 62.
02:41I really enjoyed the playing with Melo.
02:44Wasn't afraid of the moment.
02:45Made the game easy for me.
02:47Just get him the ball and just kind of watch like everyone else.
02:50Knicks down three.
02:51Anthony for three.
02:52Bang!
02:53Devlin and Madison Square Garden.
02:57He also excelled for USA Basketball.
03:00A four-time Olympian, Carmelo was instrumental in capturing three gold medals.
03:05A 10-time All-Star and a scoring champion in 2013, Anthony ranks 10th on the NBA's all-time
03:13career scoring list.
03:14Anthony back!
03:15When you saw him smile, you knew he was unstoppable.
03:20Everything he did was just so smooth, so effortless.
03:25Melo is one of the clutches players in our game.
03:28This Hall of Fame jacket, this is just the byproduct of all work and dedication.
03:32You are forever and more alive.
03:37Welcoming Carmelo to the Hall of Fame are two of the most exciting and explosive guards
03:42the game has ever seen, Dwayne Wade and the answer, Allen Iverson.
03:49Please welcome Carmelo Anthony.
04:04Hello, Owen.
04:22Woo.
04:24Part of my language, man, but damn, excuse me, pardon me, sorry.
04:46Tonight, I don't just step into the Hall of Fame.
04:50I carry with me the echoes of every voice that ever told me I couldn't.
04:56I walk with the shadows of every alley, every crack court, every empty plate.
05:03I stand for the dreamers, the doubted, the dismissed, for every soul still trapped in the places I broke free from.
05:13From Red Hook to Myrtle Avenue.
05:16We didn't grow up with guarantees.
05:22We grew up with grit.
05:24We didn't have much, but we had dreams.
05:27And if you were lucky, you had someone telling you not to give up on them.
05:31But more often, what we heard was, that ain't for you.
05:36Don't aim too high.
05:38Melo, stay in your lane.
05:40Well, I had to build a new road.
05:43I had to write a different ending.
05:46See, when you grow up in the shadows, you either get swallowed by them or you learn how to shine the way.
05:54To every kid watching, I want you to hear me loud.
05:58You are not your zip code.
06:00You are not your last name.
06:02You are not your setbacks.
06:04You are your vision.
06:06You are your work ethic.
06:09You are your will.
06:11You are the quiet whisper inside you that says, I know there's more for me in this life.
06:16Hold on to that voice.
06:18It will be tested.
06:20The dogs is barking.
06:21The dogs is barking.
06:26The dogs is barking.
06:27Yeah.
06:29The dogs is barking.
06:31Yeah.
06:34Yeah.
06:36They would tell you it's foolish.
06:38They would laugh at your belief.
06:40But let me tell you, they laughed at me too.
06:44To my father.
06:45Here's where the tears come.
06:46We good, we good, we good.
06:56To my father, Carmelo Iriate, Boricua.
07:05You left this world too soon, but you never left me.
07:10Your name is my name.
07:12Your spirit walks with me in every step I take.
07:16You were a poet, an activist, a fighter.
07:20You taught me without even knowing that words matter, that vision matters.
07:26Even in your absence, you gave me strength.
07:28In the silence, you gave me purpose.
07:32And though I didn't get to grow with you, I grew because of you.
07:36You gave me the first example of what it means to carry fire and still speak with grace.
07:42Your blood runs in mine.
07:44Your dream lives through me.
07:46This Hall of Fame jacket that I received, I'm not wearing it tonight.
07:51I wear it for the both of us.
07:54To my sister, Michelle Anthony, you have been my protector, my voice of reason, my anchor in every storm.
08:03In this world, sometimes you just need one person to see you before anyone else does.
08:08You were that person.
08:10You believed in me when I didn't even know how to believe in myself.
08:15You loved me without conditions.
08:17And you held this family together with strength that no stat sheet can measure.
08:21You were a hall of fame in every sense of the word, sis.
08:24This honor is yours, too.
08:25To Puerto Rico, my blood, my soul, my heart.
08:39I carry the flag in my heart.
08:42I carry the island in my veins.
08:44When I wore those colors on my chest, I wasn't just playing basketball.
08:48I was honoring the heritage.
08:50I was honoring my father.
08:52I was honoring every Puerto Rican who's ever had to fight twice as hard to get as far.
09:00Puerto Rico, you gave me fire.
09:03You gave me soul.
09:05You gave me home.
09:06We are proud.
09:07We are powerful.
09:09We are present.
09:10This Hall of Fame moment belongs to the island.
09:13It belongs to us.
09:14To my brothers, Justin Wolf, my real ones, my A-likes, who held me down when the world turned its back.
09:30When the critics got loud, you got louder with your love.
09:33You reminded me who I was.
09:36Every text.
09:37Every call.
09:39Every laugh.
09:41We made it, chant.
09:43To every father, and this is important, every man listening, you are more than your mistakes.
09:51You are more than what this world has to reduce you to.
09:53Being present, being real, being vulnerable, that's strength.
10:02Raising children in this world is revolutionary.
10:06I didn't just want to be a basketball player.
10:09I wanted to be a model of redemption, of accountability, of love.
10:14My kids saved me.
10:16They gave me a reason to move past ego, past noise, past criticism.
10:33They reminded me that legacy isn't what you leave behind.
10:36It's what you lift up.
10:38To every woman who's held us together, I owe everything to the strength of woman.
10:43To the woman who raised us, who loved us through our mistakes, who believed in us before the
10:50world saw our potential, I stand here because of you.
10:54To the single mothers pulling double shifts, to the grandmothers who stepped in when fathers
10:59couldn't, to the sisters who became second mothers, you are the real MVPs.
11:04You've held us up when the world tried to tear us down.
11:16You've spoken life into us when we were silent.
11:19And you've shown us what it means to fight with grace and lead with love.
11:25To Mama Love, to my mother, Mary Anthony,
11:28She cried, she cried, she cried.
11:41You taught me that love is action, that sacrifice is quiet, that faith is louder than fear.
11:49To every woman watching tonight, this moment is yours too.
11:55You are not behind us, you're not beside us, you're the reason we rise.
12:00You don't just shape homes, you shape legacies.
12:04My mother was the first one to show me what sacrifice looks like.
12:07No spotlight, no praise, just love in its purest form.
12:13You're the reason I'm standing here, ma.
12:15The sacrifices you made, the tears you held back, the strength you showed.
12:31I felt it every time I laced up my sneakers.
12:34You are my hero.
12:36And now, as a man, I see how powerful that was.
12:41That was Hall of Fame worthy too.
12:42I've been cheered, criticized.
12:48They called me a scorer who couldn't win.
12:50They said I was too loyal.
12:52Then they said I wasn't loyal enough.
12:55But they didn't know what it feels like to carry the weight of whole cities.
12:59To lace up your sneakers while the world is dissecting your soul.
13:02They never saw the lonely nights, the aching knees, the silent battles.
13:07But I kept going.
13:09I kept shooting.
13:10And I kept believing.
13:12Not because I had all the answers, but because I had a why.
13:17My why was bigger than me.
13:19My why was every kid in the hood who ever thought greatness wasn't for them.
13:23My why was my son.
13:27Watching to see if his father would fold or fight.
13:31To my real ones.
13:34My real friends.
13:36Kenny.
13:37Munch.
13:38Draper.
13:39Bay.
13:40Tyler.
13:42You weren't just part of this journey.
13:44You were my foundation.
13:46When the cameras was off.
13:47When the critics was loud.
13:49When the weight was heavy.
13:51You was there.
13:51You reminded me who I was when the world was trying to rewrite my story.
13:56You gave me laughter in the darkest seasons.
13:59You gave me silence when I needed peace.
14:02You gave me honesty.
14:04Love.
14:06Loyalty.
14:07When the world gave me noise.
14:08This honor belongs to us.
14:12Because without your presence.
14:13Your truth.
14:14Your belief.
14:15I don't get here.
14:17Y'all never chase the spotlight.
14:19But I need the world to know.
14:21You were the light behind mine.
14:24To Syracuse.
14:28One year.
14:30One championship.
14:32One spark that changed everything.
14:34You gave me my first shot at belief on the national stage.
14:37And I gave you my whole heart.
14:40I know everybody waiting on this next one.
14:43To the Denver Nuggets.
14:46In the city of Denver.
14:49You believed in me first.
14:51You gave me your keys as a 19-year-old kid.
14:54You let me grow.
14:56Fall.
14:57Fly.
14:58And become the man standing here today.
15:01Denver was where I learned the weight of the league.
15:04When I learned the value of sacrifice.
15:06And the beauty of team.
15:08To every fan who filled the Pepsi Center.
15:13To the Mile High City.
15:15You'll always be a part of my foundation.
15:17To the New York Knicks.
15:28And the city of New York.
15:31The Mecca of basketball.
15:34You gave me more than a jersey.
15:36You gave me an identity.
15:38From the lights of Madison Square Garden.
15:40To the heartbeat of every barrel.
15:43I felt that energy.
15:44I carried it.
15:45I became it.
15:47New York is not for the faint of heart.
15:50It's pressure.
15:52It's expectation.
15:53But it's also pride.
15:55Power.
15:55And poetry in motion.
15:58You showed me what it means to carry a city on your back.
16:00With grace.
16:01With grit.
16:02And with love.
16:04To the fans.
16:05Your passion never wavered.
16:07Even when things got tough.
16:09Your fire lit up every corner of the garden.
16:11Every chant.
16:13Every roar.
16:14Every boob.
16:15Every moment.
16:16We felt it.
16:17I felt it.
16:19And to the Knicks organization.
16:21For believing in me.
16:22For trusting me to represent.
16:24The city that never sleeps.
16:26That never falls.
16:28That never stops.
16:29I may have played around the league.
16:31But my soul will always echo 33rd and 7th.
16:35Once a Knick.
16:36Always a Knick.
16:39To the game of basketball.
16:41You were my way out.
16:43But more than that.
16:44You were my way in.
16:46You let me tell my story without words.
16:49You let me cry through jumpers.
16:50Shout through dunks.
16:52Dream through wins.
16:54You gave a kid from the projects a passport to the world.
16:57You gave my pain purpose.
17:00You gave my past a future.
17:02I never got an NBA ring.
17:05And some will always define me by that.
17:08But I know what I gave to this game.
17:09And I know what this game gave back.
17:12Legacy isn't always made in championships.
17:16Sometimes it's made in consistency.
17:18In a refusal to quit.
17:20And showing up.
17:21Over and over again.
17:23When no one's clapping.
17:25I played the game with fire.
17:27With passion.
17:28With love.
17:29With joy.
17:31I gave it everything I had.
17:33Every single night.
17:33To my children.
17:36To my children.
17:36Kanye and Genesis.
17:41Your father.
17:44Your father isn't perfect.
17:46But he is proof.
17:47Proof that struggle doesn't mean surrender.
17:50Proof that the road can be rough.
17:52And still lead to glory.
17:53And so I say again to every child listening.
17:57They will tell you to be realistic.
17:59I say be relentless.
18:01They will say you're dreaming too big.
18:04I say dream louder.
18:06They will try to label you.
18:07Box you in.
18:08Count you out.
18:10But remember.
18:11Statistics don't measure heart.
18:14They don't account for fight.
18:15They don't see the storm that built you.
18:17You were made for more.
18:19You are more than possible.
18:21You are inevitable.
18:23Tonight.
18:25I take my place in the Hall of Fame.
18:27But the real honor.
18:30The real honor.
18:32Is knowing I never walked alone.
18:34You walked with me.
18:35My story.
18:36It was your story.
18:38So when they ask you where the greatness come from.
18:41Tell them it starts in the dirt.
18:43It starts in the dark.
18:45It starts with a whisper that says.
18:47I will not be denied.
18:51Thank you for believing in me.
18:52Thank you for walking with me.
18:55We're in the Hall now, champ.
18:56And we just getting started.
18:59When in doubt.
19:00Stay mellow.
19:01Peace.
