![]() "We’ve sat down and we’ve talked about it," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. Anthony was once suspended 15 games by the NBA for punching former Knicks guard Mardy Collins in the face during a brawl while playing for Denver, and the Knicks need their leading scorer and the reigning Eastern Conference player of the week to walk away rather than be baited into exchanges. #KnicksĪnthony has been called for eight technical fouls, one off the league lead, and was thrown out of a physical loss against Chicago after he picked up two. Says air has been cleared between the two. Source says KG and Carmelo had a phone conversation after last night’s incident. "I lost my cool yesterday, I accept that, but there’s just certain things that push certain people’s buttons." The words that was being said between me and Garnett, it happened, can’t take that away," Anthony said. After the Knicks’ 102-96 loss, Anthony went the wrong direction toward the Celtics’ locker room in hopes of finding Garnett. No altercations, it was just some words and a conversation that we needed to have."Īnthony and Garnett had both received technical fouls with 9:03 remaining in the game after some physical play followed by jawing back and forth from the baseline to midcourt. I think it was something we both needed to get off our chest and see what really the problem was. "Nothing happened for me to be suspended," he said. It could decide to penalize Anthony, who said he shouldn’t be suspended. The NBA is investigating and has video evidence. Kevin Garnett supposedly told Carmelo Anthony his wife LaLa tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios. He shot 6 of 26, seeming at times in the second half to be most concerned with pushing and shoving Garnett, and acknowledged Tuesday that he "allowed some negativity to come into my circle."Īccording to some reports, Garnett allegedly told Anthony that his wife, LaLa Sanchez, tasted like a certain breakfast cereal. The All-Star forwards exchanged words during the game and Anthony clearly was affected. Nobody needs to know what was said behind closed doors, so that situation was handled." "I felt like we crossed a line, but like I said, we both had an understanding right now, we handled it the way we handled it. "There’s certain things that you just don’t say to men, another man," Anthony said. He said they have spoken and sorted out the matter. He would not elaborate on what was said.Īnthony went toward the Celtics’ locker room and waited for Garnett outside the team bus. Anthony said he sought out Garnett after the Knicks’ loss to Boston on Monday night so they could discuss it.
