5 best clutch shots hit by Carmelo Anthony

#4 First gamer for the Knicks, 10th March 2011

Amar'e

and Melo

3 weeks after forcing a trade to the Knicks, Melo was back to doing what he does best - take over games with his scoring touch during clutch moments. The 2010-11 version of the Memphis Grizzlies was a pretty dominant defensive team from top to bottom - and their faceoff was billed as a showdown between Amar'e and Randolph in the post.

It was Anthony, however, who nailed the tough shot following one dribble when being guarded by Tony Allen down at the left baseline, from about 20 feet out. With the scores tied at 108 and just 3 seconds left in the game, he pulled out a hesitation move, made his trademark jab step to his left and rose over the shorter Allen to make a game-winning shot.

While he's made countless such shots over the course of his career, the fact that this one came against Tony Allen, who was the best perimeter defender in the league then, pushes it into our top 5.
