Why I Can’t Be a Basketball Wife
When I saw this profile of La La Anthony, wife of Carmelo, I thought, “Finally.” La La is one of those people who’s poked around my consciousness for months now. I hear her name but don’t understand who she is or why her name is repeated so often. Then I read the profile, got how awesome she is, and decided I wanted to be her.
Five Reasons Why I Want to Be La La
1. Her name is La La.
2. She hosted “TRL” and “Flavor of Love.”
3. She interned at a radio station with Ludacris, who the article notes in the way only a Times piece can, “left to start his rap career.”
4. Her “financial guy” is the same one who got 50 Cent his deal with Vitaminwater. That guy is a genius!
5. She produced the documentary “Tyson,” which includes the unforgettable line from Mike that he “knew the art of skullduggery.”
And One Reason I Can’t
1. She is married to a basketball player and everyone knows I have questionable — Luke Walton, Joakim Noah — taste in basketball players.

Don’t forget you also had a rather misplaced obsession with one Kobe Bryant. That’s my thang!
