Carmelo Anthony’s return to Denver doesn’t burn as before; Nuggets beat Knicks
Anymore, the Carmelo Anthony trade lives on the periphery. There are still scattered boos at the Pepsi Center when he touches the ball. There remains scant buzz when he is introduced to the crowd. But he’s not a huge draw in Denver, no longer a must see — even if it is just to come to the game to boo. A sparse audience Tuesday night confirmed that. It has been five years since Anthony forced his way out of Denver. The Nuggets beat his team in Denver, 110-94, but such an outcome has been par for the course since he left. Anthony has never won a game in Denver since he left, going 0-for-3. And while any pain inflicted on the court to Anthony mattered significantly to fans early on, it’s barely a blip now. So much has changed. In the Nuggets organization, the trade is hardly ever brought up. Coach Michael Malone wasn’t here for it. General manager Tim Connelly wasn’t here. Only one of the players involved in the trade was even on the court Tuesday night — the centerpiece, … [Read more...] about Carmelo Anthony’s return to Denver doesn’t burn as before; Nuggets beat Knicks

close Video Johnson & Johnson vaccine on track for final approval in coming days The single-dose vaccine is a 'big addition' the COVID-19 vaccine arsenal, Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel says. California is revamping its plan to help essential workers and seniors in underserved communities get coronavirus vaccinations after officials learned that appointment access codes were leaked to people who were not eligible for the shots.

Brian Ferguson, a spokesman for California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, said Wednesday that the state provided general access codes to about 1,000 community groups so they could sign up residents for reserved doses at federally funded vaccination sites … [Read more...] about California halts shared COVID-19 vaccine codes system after misuse
