Eh. I like mogro and admire his tenacity in defending his guys. I may disagree w his take on KG but he generally knows his stuff. A forum where everyone agrees is a boring forum anyway.

I remember when KG, early in his career, used to constantly try and start with Tim Duncan. Blackjack used to just smile at him like "what's the problem, man?" and then bust his ass on the low block. KG spent much of the early part of his career jealous at Blackjack. I've never felt any hate towards the guy though. I just always thought he was the perennial runaway winner of the league's "pottymouth" award. Muthafuka curses like 10 sailors, man.
Can anyone who likes Dungeons and Dragons truly be considered a pimp?
this is coming from a huge nerd, by the way
Only a demented like Artest would consider the biggest whiner ever to play the game, Tim "look at me waving my arms up and down like a ballerina because I'm fouled in every paly" Duncan, a pimp.
LOL
I generally don't care to "defend my guys", you can go through my post history. The last few days have been different though, not a lot to do in my parents home waiting for a flight to go back home + a lot of mob mentality.
Forgot "bugging my eyes out"![]()
LMAO at trying to clown Tim. Your hyperbole is sickening considering you have Rasheed "Ball Don't Lie" on your team.
Everyone in the NBA whines, not everyone acts like KG. /thread
If you check the current Celts game thread, you won't see a ton of love for Sheed from me.
However, it's silly to deny that Duncan never thinks he gets fouled. And yeah, he bugs his eyes out half the time.
Sure, but every player does that. I never denied that. Maybe not bugging out the eyes, but to some degree all great players non-stop about calls. Some like Melo lay on the court for two plays. Some like Sheed freak out and throw tantrums. Some like Kobe stare the refs down.
Nobody acts like KG.
Duncan Face.
Hard to find much to dislike about Timmy. But you can't deny Duncan Face.
at people getting so emotional about KG.
I read the article.
I find the logic illogical.
The writer says that Garnett was a punk all throughout his career, but he is hated only now because his punkishness is being getting more attention than it deserves.
Well the counter argument could be, that his punkishness never got that much play, because he never played for a contender all his Timberwolf life; but he does now (or did till January 2010 and Ra'weed' T'Wallace taking over). So Kelly Dwyer's point is well made. The author has no defense of Garnett's punkishness, except that he says, "he was always a punk, so why call him out now". Poor argument.
Except that Dwyer's argument isn't that at all - in fact, it's the exact opposite. Plus, you forgot the other points the author make, about the writers+fanbase.
For example, I'm curious to see how many threads about the shove/Punch Kobe threw in today's game are going to appear here.
x over 9000!
take away the y aspects of KG (like his wannabe tough guy, picking on little people, etc) and you still have a great player. he doesn't have to do those things.
mojogrove is sitting demanding reasons why we dislike KG, when we've given plenty of reasons, while offering ZERO reasons to not dislike the guy.
You're probably illiterate. Otherwise, you have a terrific imagination.

Just curious, is your bedroom/office at home filled with newspaper clips, quotes, and pictures of Timmy? Do you have shirts from eBay that you've purchased just because the listing said he wore them at one time?
I mean it in a complementary way, of course, but dang, D228. You really never do miss a beat.![]()
No one gives a about that chump.
Duncan>KG all day, every day.![]()
Short answer: He's a sore winner that has acted like a since 2008. Pretty easy to understand. Your team won a le in 2008, props for that, but that doesn't mean we have to appreciate KG being a .
Garnett is a
Case closed.
Yep.
"I don't like KG because of all the silly posturing he starting doing as a Celtic."
"That's not a good excuse, he's ALWAYS been over the top, you(and nobody else) just weren't paying attention."
Yeah, cause angrily thrusting your hand to dislodge the ball after it being taken away on a non-called IN THE GAME foul is so similar to trying to take a guys head off with an elbow in a crowd of players/coaches off the court.![]()
