A calming voice was needed for the Lakers during a time of chaos in Detroit on Sunday night when LeBron James was ejected from the game. Into that void stepped Carmelo Anthony, his words soothing, encouraging and defining.
Lakers star LeBron James is ejected after elbowing Detroit’s Isaiah Stewart in the face, drawing blood, before they win 121-116 after trailing by 17.The NBA announced later Monday that JamesThe Lakers, Anthony said, want to ride the positive energy from Sunday’s comeback win over the Pistons.“Tomorrow, it might be somebody else. But at that moment, last night, it was time for something to be said to kind of just get the car rolling,” Anthony said. “We needed that.
“I’m still seeing the game from a different perspective, but I’m in a different role,” Anthony said. “And I think being a leader, being a go-to guy for so many years in this league and being where I’m at now, it makes it easier for me to adapt to the game. So, I think that’s why I’m having the success with this team and this offense and what we’re trying to do and what we created.”
