“I actually wished to cheer. I’m like, ‘I can’t present no emotion, simply settle for what comes with it’. I actually wanna be like, ‘Yo that was loopy’. I wished to level at him. That most likely was one of many best video games I’ve ever, ever been to.”
It’s value noting that Bogdanovic has been doing the “three to the dome” celebration for a very long time, so this was hardly one thing he whipped out simply because Carmelo was in attendance.
