Does referee Tony Brothers have a personal issue with New York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony?
That’s what Anthony’s wife, La La Anthony, tweeted on Friday night after Brothers whistled Anthony for two technical fouls against the Celtics, triggering an ejection.
He hates Mel. It's personal. Always has. https://t.co/oHGrrOe30Q
Anthony wasn’t around to comment after the game, but Brothers told a pool reporter in Boston that he had no history with Anthony, a 13-year veteran.
La La Anthony, however, wasn't buying it.
Anthony was tossed with 4:44 left in the second quarter after consecutive technical fouls issued by Brothers.
