Mike Woodson: 'Carmelo Anthony gets hit more than ever'

New York Knicks head coach Mike Woodson believes that forward Carmelo Anthony is getting fouled more than ever.

Mike Woodson has said that New York Knicks small forward Carmelo Anthony gets hit more than ever.

The team's head coach believes that other big-name players in the league receive preferential treatment from officials.

Woodson told ESPN: "Absolutely. And I'm not going to shy away from that, either. I think Melo gets hit more than ever.

"I've been at this thing 30 years, and sometimes I'm starting to wonder what's a foul and what's not a foul.

"The offense normally has the advantage when you're making plays at the rim, Melo draws a lot of contact, but he comes up empty a lot of times as well."

Anthony has averaged 26.1 points per game so far this season.
