Carmelo Anthony Says La La Isn't Micromanaging His Career

By Michael Lopez

It’s not unusual for a wife to have a say in her husband’s affairs. It's also not unusual for bloggers to misdirect their anger.

Sports bloggers are accusing former MTV VJ La La Vazquez of secretly pulling the strings of hubby Carmelo Anthony’s NBA career after he turned down a three-year contract extension with the Denver Nuggets. Although some have claimed that La La told him to hold out for a possible trade to the New Jersey Nets, Carmelo quickly jumped to his wife's defense.

“La La has nothing to do with anything," Anthony told Yahoo News. "Whatever is my decision, she is going to support me. She has nothing to do with me staying or leaving. ... This my career. This is my decision. Of course, I got to consult her with everything. It wasn’t one conversation I had with her where she said, ‘Let’s get out of Denver.’”

While Denver fans may be unhappy with his contract extension rejection, it's important to remember that Carmelo Anthony was born and raised in New York and may want to return home. Of course, this writer would love to see the Anthonys stay on the West Coast. Have you seen how good La La looks in a bikini?!

Do you think La La’s secretly calling the shots? Comment below or @MTV3.
