Jeff Hornacek, apparently, has had enough of Carmelo Anthony's offensive approach.
The New York Knicks bench boss looked visibly upset Monday against the Orlando Magic, walking away in frustration after watching his All-Star forward call yet another iso play.
Hornacek isn't the only one irritated with Melo's tendency to hold the ball for too long, as team president Phil Jackson voiced his displeasure just last month.
Hornacek's frustrations appeared to carry into the postgame press conference, calling out his team for a lack of effort on the defensive end.
