    Harsh way to say Hoodie Melo is never going to be Olympic Melo again.

    “I love Carmelo,” Colangelo said. “He made a great contribution. He was a very good international player. But for where we are and what we’re doing, that conceivably could have been a distraction. I understand why the request was made. He’s trying to reestablish himself. I think that has to be done in the [NBA].”
    Cuban ends the segment echoing Harper’s comments about Anthony potentially being a distraction to the team.

    “As far as distractions,” Cuban said, “you’ve got the best coaches in the universe coaching that team. How’s he going to be a distraction?”

    Cuban also didn’t make a move for his darling Melo.

    PJ got to fulfill his NBA dream much later than most other players, and playing for the national team has been a lifelong goal of his. This is most likely his one and only opportunity to get to represent his country playing basketball. He deserves this.
