Well this is hardly newsworthy, but we love it anytime we can post something about how much of an asshole Kevin Garnett is. Saw this particular nugget over at SportsGrid.com just now.ESPN: The Magazine has a regular column where an anonymous player dishes the dirt on stuff that goes on in the NBA that we, as regular ol' fans, don't always hear about. In the latest edition, "Player X" had this to say about KG:
"Easy for me to say behind this column. Don’t worry, I’ll tell him to his face, too. And I’m not the only one who thinks that: If you’re not on his team, chances are you hate the guy. You can learn a lot about him by watching his eyes. If he’s talking to you — and he’s always talking — he avoids eye contact. My advice to other guys in the league: Stare him down, and he’ll retreat. From what I’ve seen, he’ll never mix it up with a player who’s bigger than he is. Personally, I think he’s scared to fight — like a playground bully who barks but doesn’t bite."
We love this. Loooooooooooooooooove this. If we were to guess who wrote this, we would say Channing Frye, after the much publicized nut-punch he received from KG a couple months ago. But it doesn't really matter who wrote it. I personally believe that if they were given the opportunity, at least 87% of all NBA players would agree that Kevin Garnett is a complete asshole.
