KG is crazy!

[JamStone]

Well think about it. It's not really that bad, but still, is that "pure" class?

I'm just saying...

[Ronaldo McDonald]

KG actually restructured his contract when he was still in Minnesota (when it was still allowed under the CBA) so the Timberwolves could do just that.

And, when he signed an extension, again he took a pay cut, even more than Tim Duncan is going to. This past season, KG made $24.8 million. Next season, he'll go down to $16.4 million.

Your bias and hate are not misleading at all.

I don't hate KG. In fact there was a thread not long ago where I was one of the only people who stood up for him (in fact, it was a TD vs. KG thread, so where you got that I was biased I have no clue). can you tell me? Exactly you're full of , so quit pretending you know who the I am.

Attention .

[SenorSpur]

Definitely a certifiably insane nut.

At the same time, I appreciate the fact that he appreciates finally winning a championship so much. Say what you want to say about the guy as a choker, a punk on the court, what have you, the guy cares about winning, is passionate about the game, and genuinely appreciated the moment.

A guy like Tim Duncan is all class, no doubt about it. But, all of his success has afforded him the luxury of not being as emotional as you saw KG last night. I give big ups to KG, despite all his flaws, all his chokes, all his screams and chest bumps. The guy cares. He has been destroyed by failure, and he finally is part of a championship. Go ahead, young man. Let it out.

The first time is always the best. I've even heard Tim say that.

I don't memorize the posts of other posters.

And, why go off topic. I just made a post that proved your assumptions and assertions incorrect. Why not respond to the fact that KG actually did take a paycut, and that it is actually a bigger paycut that what Tim Duncan is taking? That was the point of your post anyway to prove that KG prioritizes money and his passion is misleading. How about actually responding to the topic instead of defending your messageboard honor.

I called you bias because you made inaccurate assertions based on inaccurate contentions, meaning your argument was inaccurate, which led me to believe that you were grasping at false "facts" and jack squat to try to make KG appear something he's not.

Sorry for hurting your e-feelings by calling you biased.

[stretch]

im not a KG fan by any means, as many of you know... but i had no problem with him being emotional over the win, considering all the times he came up short. that is one thing i do like about him, is that he really appreciate winning. he was acting like a bit of a fool, but oh well, he was happy. why would i hate on a guy for being happy?

congrats to KG. but Dirk and Duncan >>> KG still.

[Ignignokt]

I hate watching Duncan win championships. His gay ass little hops with his one arm in the air suck. I said it last night- I always hate watching the Spurs get mildly excited before I get the feeling they're heading home to a cup of chamomile and a good book.

And... the children. Who are you Rev. Lovejoy's wife?

Don't take your scrote problems and your testicle disability that hinders you to sprout kids to make you angry at them.

You hate the boring spurs. Go watch karl malone nuts shrivel in the finals. With a posse of stockton and malone, you should be the last mormon wife to about basketball boredom.

Repent, put down the pipe and obey your polygamist husband before he backhands you like the pioneer dress wearing bohemian livestrong bracelet jog enthusiast you are.

Basically, you're wrong. You think I hate KG because I said I thought he priotized money. That doesn't mean I hate him, or that I have any bias. It just means, plain and simple, that what I thought to be true was actually false. I wasn't "grasping at facts" when in my original post I even stated that I "could be wrong".

[JamStone]

You didn't say you "could be wrong" about KG not taking a paycut. You said you "could be wrong" about the amount of money he made.

At any rate, your representation of KG based on inaccurate facts shows bias.

But if you want to make a semantical argument, fine. Take my claims of you hating and being biased as an opinion. At least my opinion is based on something reasonable. You based your opinion of KG as prioritizing money and having misleading passion on FALSE "facts."

"Could be wrong" referred to the fact that I thought Kevin Garnett hadn't yet taken a pay cut. This stems from the fact I thought I remembered hearing at one point that he made was originally making 30 mil a year.

[Ronaldo McDonald]

And, how do you come to the conclusion that I am being biased and hate KG because i asserted something that I thought was true, but was actually wrong? I was misinformed, plain and simple. There's no bias involved at all.

[JamStone]

Isn't he making like 30 mil a year? I could be wrong...

If a he cared about winning so much he would have given up some of his ridiculous salary before so his teams could have a chance. Timmy D did it. KG prioritizes his money - a ridiculously excessive amount of it - before of winning. His "passion" is misleading.

Then you're just not very bright or ignorant about how the CBA, salaries, and how taking a paycut works.

And, since you didn't even take the time to find out, it's your own ignorance that paints the picture that you're biased and just hating.

At any rate, it wouldn't even matter if KG did in fact make $30 million this season because the only way a player can take a "paycut" under the new CBA is when he signs an extension with his current club with a salary less than the current contract has. For example, Tim Duncan makes $20 million this upcoming season and and $22 million the following season. Duncan taking a paycut doesn't take effect until the 2010-11 NBA season.

Hence, one who is ignorant or refuses to do the proper research before making inaccurate contentions can say, "doesn't Tim Duncan make $20 million next year. Why is he selfish and doesn't take a paycut to help the Spurs re-tool the roster?" That would be in effect the same type of statement you made about KG. KG's "paycut" doesn't take effect until next season.

So, I guess you can just disregard me calling you biased and a hater. You're just an uninformed and ignorant poster.

My bad.

It's called a deduction based on your comment. An opinion.

I just said disregard that opinion in my above post.

You're just uninformed and ignorant.

I stand corrected.

[mavsfan1000]

I'll take passion over class anyday. Well done Garnett and the haters.

And you are uninformed, ignorant, and bias by presuming I hated and had bias against KG instead of being uninformed and ignorant.

[JamStone]

LOL good one

[SPURSGOAT]

I crack up every time I watch this...

To tell you the truth I am kinda glad KG finally won a ring and all.. but the guy is totally insane.

[ludda]

Did he tell Mic e that she "looked good tonight" at one point? I have a hard time understanding his gibberish. Funny stuff.

Duncan>KG still. But Dirk? C'mon man! Dirk has yet to win one!

[mavsfan1000]

That says nothing. KG couldn't take Minnesota to the playoffs a couple years straight. It's all about the team around you.

[SPURSGOAT]

ha-ha! yea he did say that....

[Ronaldo McDonald]

I would rather have KG than Dirk. With Kg on your team, your interior defense is going to be pretty good, and that's key for any contender. It's not an easy choice. It depends on how you structure the team around them.

[mavsfan1000]

Here is a song for you KG. You deserve it with your dedication. http://youtube.com/watch?v=k36RNvcvkvc

kleenex is looking for someone to promote their brand. so is prozac and lithium.

For some reason I stopped hating on KG after his postgame performance.
