Thunder: Steve Adams:KG’s trash talk makes you question whether playing basketball is worth it [Archive]

Thunder center Steven Adams, via Anthony Slater of The Oklahoman:

“KG and (Kendrick Perkins), those two are ridiculous,” Adams said of the legendary smack-talkers. “They make you question, like, why you are playing basketball and stuff. You’re like ‘Why am I doing this?’ It’s really weird, you get depressed.”

Has Garnett ever specifically targeted Adams?

“Thankfully, he doesn’t talk to me,” Adams said. “But he was talking to Serge once and I was like ‘Woah, that’s some stuff.‘ I cannot repeat it.”

How about when Garnett starts talking to himself?

“Yeah, it’s like really weird,” Adams recalled. “He’s talking to himself, but he like makes you feel bad because he mentions you in it. You’re like, ‘What the hell? This is crazy?’ I walk away so I don’t hear it because then, I don’t know, I’ll get real sad.”

I don't think KG is a fake tough guy. I think he's a marketing expert and made a fucking fortune even playing in that shitty ass state. He didn't throw punches because he's not an idiot. I don't like him, but his act fueled that and that was his intent.

Hmmm. Doesn't sound like something I'd say in that context. Produce a quote and we'll talk about it.

There's little to say that's stupider than Kevin Garnett's marketing genius being the reason for his money earned in Minnesota. He came out of high school and got picked at the right time so he could get his rookie deal out of the way and make way more money than he was worth right before the '99 lockout. The shit he yelled after the finals was an act, but that has nothing to do with his career-long habit of going after little Euro guys and backing down to anyone that stood up to him.

That is, by definition, a fake tough guy.

OMG this is the craziest thing I've ever read. I cannot believe you people would wonder if Blair putting up 20 and 10 would be good for the team and do it with a straight face. There's a reason DB led the entire nation in PER in college, better than Blake Griffin, better than Stephen Curry.

Blair is in shape, he's interested in playing. The only danger this team has is not keeping him interested by not letting him be himself. There's a fucking reason he goes into beast mode in exhibition games. Let the kid loose. :lmao

So you think a player scoring 20 points and 10 rebounds in a single game would make his defense worse? That's the post I was responding to. It's right there in the link.

BTW, Blair fell off for this team because he lost interest and got fat. I'm waiting for an explanation of how my take was in any way wrong. Did you miss the first round of the playoffs last year?

The Mavs must have missed it, because they traded Blair for basically nothing and he's getting shit minutes on a shit team. Your takes speak for themselves, now get back in your fucking lane upstairs, you'll get your snatch bruised down here.

The Mavs most certainly didn't miss the first round of the playoffs, since they're still talking about it up here. They traded Blair because, again, he lost interest and got fat. Swing and a miss.

BTW, three-year-old post smack isn't nearly enough to bruise anything. I'm honored that you did the research and went that far back to find such a weak bomb to attempt to drop.

Like I researched your shitty takes. I don't have that much time left in my life tbh. I recall you being a big Blair faggot and you mysteriously walked away whistling as it unfolded. Now you come here where basketball is discussed sans the obligatory homer cock sucking and try to make a point about a player, against what I have set in stone?

If you're going to come here, come heavy (not that you have a choice), or don't come at all.

Clearly you did. It's okay, you don't have to be ashamed about it. Makes it a little bit funny that you can't handle the discussion in the thread but say shit like "Come heavy, or don't come at all."

By the way, that's also an example of a fake tough guy. You got it down.
