What really happened between Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett?
The Internet was abuzz yesterday over an on-court verbal exchange between NBA superstars Carmelo Anthony, of the NY Knicks, and Kevin Garnett, of the Boston Celtics, during a nationally televised game on Tuesday.
According to a source (who wasn’t within earshot), KG said something derogatory about ‘Melo’s estranged wife, LaLa Vazquez. Whatever he said led Anthony to the Celtics’ dressing room door after the game, where he shouted at several Celtics players. Videos uploaded to YouTube.com shows Anthony waiting near the Celtics team bus to confront KG. A phalanx of police and arena security stands between him and what could have been a rumble of epic proportions.
“There’s certain things that you just don’t say to men, another man,” Anthony said when asked what KG said to upset him so. “I felt like he crossed the line.”
Anthony and KG later settled their differences. “They spoke on the phone and resolved it,” a source told the NY Post.
When reached for a comment, LaLa told a reporter that KG didn’t say anything about her.
The NBA is investigating what appears to be another case of professional ball players acting like street thugs in a controlled sporting environment. Talk of a suspension floated around the team practice facility on Tuesday. But Anthony dismissed the notion.
“Nothing happened for me to be suspended,” Anthony said. “I went and I wanted to talk to KG. … No altercations. It was just some words and a conversation that we needed to have.”
“I just wanted to know what was being said, where was all that coming from. What was said on the basketball court, where was it coming from?” Anthony said. “I just wanted to have a one-on-one conversation with him, talk it out like two grown men.”
KG is a notorious trash talker on the court. But sources tell Sandrarose.com that Anthony was a bit more sensitive than usual to the trash talk because he and his wife, LaLa, have separated.
“I lost my cool [Monday]. I accept that. But there are just certain things that push certain people’s buttons,” he told reporters. “You guys will never know what those certain things [are], and I would never sit and tell you what those certain things are or what was said [Monday], what was done. What’s done is done. Like I said, I accept that. I lost my composure [Monday]. For the most part, I’ve been very positive this season.”
Watch the video of the on-court altercation and Anthony waiting outside the Celtics dressing room.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I can tell you don’t watch any sports of almost any kind. This is exactly what they are. Maybe not thugs per se; but most if not all sports contain folks who were literally plucked off the playground, out the streets, etc and are groomed to play that sport. We not talking white/black even here. Even hockey has hard knock life stories and that is the whitest sport I can think of right now. Chris Stewart grew up poor as all kinds of hell. You in that environment…by circumstance most times you become “about that life”.
So do not put this on the NBA. Please and all kinds of thanks.
I heard that KG shouted to Carmelo, “Your wife tastes like Cheerios”
Good morning roses, thorns, weeds, fertilizers, and home skillets! Oh, and Man.
On topic: How do you start the new year with ratchetness, especially when Black History Month is right around the corner? I mean, can’t we just hold hands and sing “Lift Every Voice?”
Off topic: Sandrita……..can we please have a medical minute on hypertension/diabetes in the Black community? Please and thank you!
Good morning everybody

I guess it’s ok if dude still thinks I smell like water but, Personally if I gotta be cereal I wanna be the sweetest one cinnamon toast crunch.
talking junk is common in b-ball and melo and KG both not about that life. Melo needs to stop being b*tch made u know u married a door knob so what u expect

@such yea im about to take them boxes down to the homeless shelter. Let them munch on Lala flavored cereal….hell not me!
@miany i just want to taste like fruit. Strawberry or peaches pending on what day (snickers)
KG ain’t chit but the cheerios line was funny…and what exactly makes LaLa a lesbian…is it because Sandra said so…has a former lover come out…and does it matter???

a phalanx of police? whoaaaa.
But in hockey the term “thug” is used for a player usually with less skill who is really only there to protect the more skilled players. It doesn’t hold the same connotation as it does when used to refer to black athletes regardless of backround. They don’t call Nascar dudes that run clear across a track to fight another driver thugs.
cocoa!
ace!
I didn’t know la la was a door knob or trash…learn something new everyday

GIRRRLLLL you know about that too??
Cuz Lala trying to act all new n shyt knowing she was creeping with Melo’s ass..and when Lala’s ex found out he damn near molly whooped her ass in Club Babaloo’s in NYC (Ed Lover used to host the joint on Sat..it was live)…Melo fought him and now they husband and wife.
Beautiful story to share with their son on how they got together
NASCAR & Baseball are two sports I just can’t get into
I can understand how folks see KG’s trash talk as tacky BUT that’s what they do! They talk even worse than that. I am sure that Duncan is and was mentally strong enough for the talk, because you kinda ‘expect’ your opponent to go for the jugular
Hey family!
I wonder if Melo, would consider a regular chica like me ?
I’m sure Melo is offended because he doesn’t believe his wife is loose like that.I don’t care how much trash they talk in sports. If my man is in the gym playing a bball tournament and someone says ‘your girl smells like fresh spring water & tastes like pineapples” I expect him to go across dude head.. I never heard about LaLa being an industry door knob/ trashy? Who has she been rumored to sleep with? Does she have any exes I may know of?
GiGi who was her ex again? or is it that Ed Lover that you mentioned?
Jenie, oh ok.
KINGSTONN!!!!! Why do you have that dreadful, oily face, Armenian version of Kim avi going?
Phalanx is defined as:
any closely ranked unit or mass of people (the police formed a phalanx to protect the embassy)
a number of people united for a common purpose

Not in national media they wouldn’t/don’t. Certainly not with the comfortablity they use “nagger” code words.
Fck “trash talk” being acceptable. KG sounds like a bitch. Keep the name of another man’s woman out your filthy mouth unless you want to get hit in it.

Knowledge 105 was for you
I remember when LaLa went from being engaged to single in a span of 2 seconds…they say Melo pursued her hard but they made it seem like dude wasn’t wrapped too tight and Melo had to check’em
Oh u will like soho. Is this your first trip to NY?
Look at Melo’s Assistant, lingering in the background…SMH! LaLa, get your MAN!! Til death do ya’ll part!
