Carmelo Anthony has to be one of the most entertaining rebounders in NBA history.
No, he’s never come close to leading the league in actual rebounds. But every season he’s been in the NBA, he’s led the league by far in letting everyone know — including the folks at home on the couch — that HE GOT IT.
In the NBA’s bubble you can actually hear it a bit more now without the audience. And each time it’s so entertaining.
He put on a I GOT IT clinic against the Rockets in the Trail Blazers’ 110-102 win. He grabbed 11 rebounds and had a handful of GIVE ME THATs to go with it.
"I GOT IT!" 🔊🆙

That’s so good because it’s so relatable. Melo is the OG hooper at the rec who lets you know it’s his rebound and nobody else’s.
It gets even better when he’s outside of the NBA’s bubble. That’s when he’s just cursing everyone out and letting his teammates know they can run the floor. It’s glorious.
It normally goes something like this.

Ah, what a joy. Never stop rebounding Carmelo. Never.
