La La Anthony calls out NBA ref for personal vendetta against husband Carmelo

La La Anthony is sticking up for her husband after one NBA referee decided to send the Knicks All-Star forward to the locker room early.

Carmelo Anthony received two technical fouls and an automatic ejection after arguing a personal foul call with referee Tony Brothers on Friday night. Anthony became furious after he was hit with a loose-ball foul for diving over Celtics forward Amir Johnson with 4:44 remaining in the second quarter.
