Portland Trail Blazers forward Carmelo Anthony thought he “got it.” However, Los Angeles Lakers swingman Danny Green spoiled his moment.
Melo grabbed the rebound in the third quarter and yelled his signature “I got it” while securing the possession. However, the Green ruined it by snatching away the ball from Anthony and scoring on the easy tip dunk.
Clearly, the Blazers vet was frustrated after the mishap. After all, they had the chance to cut the Lakers' lead in the play.
Melo is notorious for uttering those three words when emphatically getting the rebound.
The former scoring champion filled in nicely in the absence of Damian Lillard in Game 5 against the Lakers. Los Angeles, however, took control in the second half.
Meanwhile for Lakers fans, seeing Danny Green contribute in some other ways amid his shooting slump was certainly an awesome sight to see.
