Howard Beck of the NEW YORK TIMES writes, "Carmelo Anthony's introduction to international basketball was all about confusion and chaos and, most of all, discontent. He spent the summer of 2004 on the bench of Coach Larry Brown's team, watching as the United States finished with a bronze medal in the Athens Olympics. It will be another year before that memory can be properly expunged, but Anthony seems up to the task. With 27 points Saturday night, he led a 135-91 rout of Puerto Rico in the FIBA Americas Tournament, and the United States (9-0) clinched a berth in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing."
