PHILADELPHIA -- Carmelo Anthony helped bridge the gap between the Chicago Bulls past and present Thursday night by hosting a Thanksgiving dinner that included Derrick Rose and Dwyane Wade.Various pictures of Anthony, Rose and Wade popped up on social media Thursday night, with all three smiling among family and friends.Wade posted a photo on his Instagram account of himself with Anthony and their wives, thanking the New York Knicks star for hosting them.Anthonys wife, La La Anthony, also posted a picture on her Twitter account of her husband, Wade and Rose.I was happy to get a home-cooked meal, Wade said after Fridays shootaround. It was cool. Last year [the Heat] were in New York, so I was able to have Thanksgiving with the Anthonys, me and my wife, and this year because we were so close we were able to go up there again.Derrick obviously didnt have any family in New York and did the same thing [we did]. So its good to have somewhere on Thanksgiving to kind of feel like youre part of a family.Wade took a helicopter with his wife, actress Gabrielle Union, from Philadelphia -- where the Bulls were staying in advance of Fridays game against the 76ers -- to Anthonys New York home. Wade said he and Rose talked about Chicago a little bit at the Thanksgiving table.Rose, who grew up in the Chicago neighborhood of Englewood, was dealt by the Bulls to the Knicks over the summer after eight seasons in Chicago. Wade, who is from Robbins, Illinois, signed with the Bulls after playing 13 seasons for the Miami Heat.We talked a little bit, Wade said. Obviously it was table talk, so I cant tell you all what we talked about, but obviously we talked a little bit about Chicago and he asked me how it is to be home. And he knows that my family is probably excited that Im back at the crib because hes played at home before. And I think him being excited hes in New York -- so just regular banter.Rose said he enjoyed the catering at Anthonys so much that he plans to hire the caterer for meals in New York. He noted that Anthony had four different types of turkey.They had everything you could think of. Hes doing it right. Melos doing it right, added Rose, who said he brought five or six bottles of wine to the occasion.Rose said it can be difficult to be away from family for holidays.But being around the people I was around yesterday, it didnt matter. They made me feel like I was home, he said. It was perfect.Information from ESPNs Ian Begley was used in this report.

Subscribe today!Game day is all about preparation, and for Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson, 26, that means factoring in the season and the city hes in to develop a signature look. We caught up with Peterson after the Oct. 30 game between the Cards and the Panthers Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte.?Heres what Peterson had to say about how he puts himself together:Any thoughts on our idea for The Walk-In? I always believed photographers should catch us right before we leave our hotel or go into the stadiums. It helps the League, fashion-wise, which then helps our marketability. My image is part of my brand and kids want to see what were wearing pre and post game. ?How would you describe your style? I guess I would say laid back, business causal, but I could also be into todays?fashion trends, as far as?the?skinny?look goes, European-fit jeans with the long white tees. Im very versatile with my style. I take pride in it as well because I have a brand and image and I want that brand to represent who I am.?How do you put this outfit together? Its all about feel. I always try a couple of things to see if they look good?and see how I feel in them. It also depends on weather and at what point of the year it is. The seasons dictates the color, but its really all about feel.?How did this outfit come about??I use Elevee, its a custom suit maker. Jennifer Duran is my stylist, she put this look together for me. Before the season starts, she comes to my house and I buy 8-12 new suits for the season. We go through colors, fabrics and looks and really plan out these suits before the season starts. So when it comes to Sunday, I dont really have to think about it much. It still takes me about 30 minutes?to an hour?to get the look ready and to get dressed, but the color combos are usually all planned out.?Jacket: Its for the winter and I thought it was a great touch to bring into November. I go for the slim-fit looks, its in style nowadays. Its a look I love. Ive been going for this style for a while.?Silk Tie: The tie is an Elevee product. I picked it because I needed something to give it a pop. I have the plaid jacket and the button-down shirt. That tie was chosen so you can get the focus off the jaccket with the polka dot tie.dddddddddddd ?Silk Pocket Square: Im not really big on the pocket square, but I am huge into the detail and that adds. If you look at the picture, you will see my left cuff, above the watch, you can see my logo P2 in the shirt.Do you consult your stylist every Saturday night before the game??Every weekend I have a game plan for my outfit. It actually starts in the beginning of the season when I pick out the colors I am going to wear and the ties we choose. The planning is in the beginning of the season but I do think about it each week. ?Watch:?Its a Rolex, I got that in 2013 as a gift from my jeweler for making, I believe, my third consecutive Pro Bowl. ?Pants + Shoes:?The pants are Elevee as well. I love the slim fit, a little more slender around the ankle so you can actually see the details in the shoes that you may wear. I went with my Size 11 Louis Vuitton two-toned shoes with no socks. So I have a European look all the way down, from top to bottom. ?Your backpack: What is it? Whats in it? And it looks like your backpack has a backpack??Yes, (laughs) my backpack does have a backpack. It is a Gucci Sport backpack. I keep my iPad, my toiletry bag and pretty much my notes from the game plan in there. Youll see I have a backpack on the backpack, its really nothing, its just a Fendi bag. I thought it was pretty cool, I basically have a different one on every backpack. Theyre just fun. ?Sunglasses:?Those are some Tom Fords. I take good care of them. In the early stage of my career I was the guy who would lose almost every pair of sunglasses. As Ive gotten older and more responsible I dont lose them anymore, I take good care of my things.?Are you using skin care products?? No, not really, I am not into that, though I do get?a facial?twice a month. Right now I am growing my facial hair.Whose style do you admire??I like the style of Russell Westbrook, I also like the way will.i.am dresses, and I like the way LeBron puts together outfits. They all have t
