“That’s something I’ve gotta work on I guess,” Brown said of his frequent travel calls. “They pick and chose when they emphasize the traveling call. It seems like every (expletive) game that’s the person, I’m targeted. But if you look around the league you can pinpoint a lot of players doing the same thing. So you can’t pick and choose when you want to call stuff. But that’s something I’m going to work on.”

“I’m definitely gonna keep my pivot foot down because a lot of my turnovers tonight came from travel calls.”According toBrown has been whistled for a travel call in Boston’s past five games dating back to a loss against Golden State on Dec. 10. According to ESPN, travel calls doubled from 1.7 per game in October to 3.4 in November.
