Carmelo's Wedding Highlights: Lebron Gets Booed and Spike Lee Nearly Faints


Previously on That NBA Lottery Pick, we mentioned that Carmelo Anthony was getting married to his fiance, former MTV VJ, La La Vasquez.

Well, the wedding happened over the weekend and there were two interesting highlights that had nothing to do with the actual wedding itself.

First off, Lebron James was in attendance and got booed by fans as he entered the building.

We get more from Fox Sports.com:

NBA star Carmelo Anthony tied the knot with actress LaLa Vazquez in New York Saturday — but the event was almost upstaged by guest LeBron James.

James was greeted by a round of loud boos from angry New Yorkers outside the wedding in Cipriani 42nd Street when he arrived with his girlfriend Savannah Brinson, myFOXny.com reported.

The basketball player star has attracted plenty of criticism since his televised announcement Thursday to join the Miami Heat.
The second highlight came with Hornets guard Chris Paul was giving a wedding toast which he discussed the possibility of a Big Three in NYC of Paul/Carmelo/and Amar'e Stoudemire.

We get more from the New York Daily News:

It was a wedding toast heard from Broadway to Bourbon Street.

During Carmelo Anthony's wedding Saturday night at Cipriani's on 42nd Street, Chris Paul, the superstar New Orleans point guard, predicted a future Knicks Dream Team.

According to a person who spoke with wedding attendee Amar'e Stoudemire, Paul made the reference during a speech of a potential union of himself, Stoudemire and Anthony, saying, "We'll form our own Big 3," Paul allegedly said.

Attendee Spike Lee nearly passed out at the suggestion.
To be honest, I think all New York Knicks related stories should now end with, Spike Lee nearly passed out.
