Last week the wildest rumor on the Internet was that Boston Celtic Kevin Garnett told Carmelo Anthony that his wife La La tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios in the middle of a game [click here if you missed that].
Welp, Celtics coach Doc Rivers says it never happened and that Carmelo started the rumor to get the heat off his back for fighting...
Doc Rivers tells radio station WEEI
“No. 1, I know what’s been reported did not happen. I know that as a fact.”
“Guys, you know how this works. A guy does something crazy like Carmelo did, and the way to get out of trouble is to say, ‘Well, he said this.’ It happens all the time, and what bugs me about this whole thing is this is not a Kevin Garnett issue. And it was made into one, and it shouldn’t have been made into one."
