Carmelo Anthony scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half Friday night to help the Lakers pick up a 116-105 road victory over the Orlando Magic.
Anthony scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half. For the game, he was eight-of-13 shooting from the field, including four for five from three-point range, and made all three of his free throws, which came about when he was fouled attempting a three-pointer.“I wanted to just come in and do what I had to do as far as changing the momentum of the game,” Anthony said. “Not just from scoring the basketball and shooting it well, but a different energy, a different effort.
“I’m just playing my role, man, just what’s called for me to do each night,” Anthony said. “It’s different teams defending me differently than they do others. So, it’s just about me playing smarter. I read the defenses. I give my team an opportunity to get us spaced out, give them a weapon on the wing. Take advantage of the mismatch. For me, I just try to make the game simple and make it easier for myself and the other guys.
