I miss the game but everyone i know that watch the game complain about the Tony Brothers ..
Personally, I think blaming refs is weak. 25 turnovers are not the refs' fault .. plus why didn't head coach Jeff Horn go off bout the officiating to get a fine n tossed like Melo.
Here is the petition if any of you are interested.

Carmelo Anthony told reporters that he believes there is "something going on" between he and referee Tony Brothers a day after the Knicks' star got two quick technicals Friday at Boston.
Anthony, in Toronto for Saturday's game against the Raptors, said he only said "a couple of bad words" to Brothers before being tossed with 4:44 left in the first half of the Celtics' 117-85 victory.
Anthony's wife La La took to Twitter Friday to say "it's personal" between her husband and Brothers. Carmelo Anthony said he didn't speak to the referee afterward because he didn't want to "make the situation worse than what it was."
Anthony had an argument with Brothers in Detroit last week. Brothers was also the referee when he and Kevin Garnett went at it in the "Honey Nut Cheerios'' game in 2014 with Brothers not intevening.
"I don't even know the last time I've been ejected from a game of basketball,'' said Anthony, whose previous ejection was four years ago. "I don't even know what that feels like. Being on the road playing in a game of that stature, to be kicked out of the game for what reason? Because of a couple of bad words?''
Anthony jumped on Amir Johnson going for a loose ball. Anthony argued to pick up the first T, then Brothers walked away and Anthony followed.
Brothers' Wikipedia page was edited Saturday to read that he "is an American professional referee, and profesional [sic] Melo Hater who works in the National Basketball Association (NBA) since the 1994-1995 season."
