Fucking pathetic. For a guy who's heralded as a great samaritan and shit like that, ambassador of the game or whatever bullshit they label him, all I remember is him being a complete douche on the court. From his scuffle vs Zaza a couple years back to him mocking whoever it was, the guy's been a complete thug and a douche on the court. Hate him. Absolutely hate KG.
Edit: Just watched the highlights of the Lakers/Thunder game 1 and they show a highlight of Bynum deliberately bumping and nudging into Jeff Green off an inbounds pass. It's disgusting how the highlight commentators call it "playoff basketball". That shit doesn't happen even if it's playoff basketball. That's just a cheap shot.
During the game the announcers saw it and said how lucky he was for not getting a personal or even a flagrant there... highlight commentators rarely know what they are talking about and just try to keep the flow of the highlight.
I really hope KG doesn't turn into a whiny bitchy version as he gets older, aka the Shaq route. At least in his post game interview he seems to acknowledge the mistake (on what level is open to debate), but I don't think a playoff game suspension hurts anyone (in the playoffs right now) more than it hurts KG.

For what its worth, I am still willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, remember Fisher's suspension last playoffs? There's a thin line between intensity and stupidity, KG just crossed it in game 1 and he realizes it just as much. Shaq on the other hand is obviously past his prime but wants to live in it, antagonizing Bynum and Howard. KG's got 1 more season and if he carries it past that then that'll be a sad sight.
This is coming from someone who hates the Celtics, the only redeeming quality of that team is Rivers and Allen. (/hate)
i'm not talking about that specific incident, if you think that's it then you don't know KG. he talks more shit than anyone in the NBA but can't back it up anymore, and just plays dirty as fuck. he's worse than Shaq, because he doesn't play dirty
You guys get caught up bitching too much about players that talk shit. IT HAPPENS. Get over it. Whether you think KG can back it up or not anymore is irrelevant as he's still going down as one of the best players to play the game. MJ talked shit more than anybody in the damn league why don't you bark about him? Just give it a rest.
Being a dirty player and a trash talker are not the same thing Ace... and you might wanna relax a little bit when someone has an opinion opposing your viewpoint.
It's just annoying to hear this same rhetoric every time we talk about the Celtics. And mind you I'm not talking about KG being a dirty player - if that's the case then obviously the hate is warranted. I'm referring to the arguments about trash talking as if it's really a big deal. Anyone who balls know it's part of the game so just let it go.
Well, we wouldn't have to talk about it if he didn't smash a guy in the face with his elbow. So, how about you think about that we only bring it up when he does shit which is a lot. Sure, a lot of players trash talk, but not all players talk trash while getting on all fours and barking like a dog or clapping their hands right in a players face who is dribbling up the ball. Yeah, so you're right KG is just your normal every day shit talker and a regular ole aggressive player.
The cavs playing very well offensively and the bulls only down by 2 at the half, plus Lebron is already his scoring self (18 pts first half). I smell an upset.

he is in the sense that they have no one can guard him, for their point guards dragic and nash theres no way they can cover him, and if they move to a shooting guard, j rich and barbosa arent fantastic on the ball defenders. With Batum running hill around their most versatile player is already busy.
Not to mention portlands front line seemed to absolutely dominate pheonix, ill say amare stoudemire played worse than miller played exceptional.

Did you see me say I play ball in the NBA? I thought so. The point is anyone who plays basketball competitively knows you deal with trash talking. Doesn't matter if you're in the NBA or not.
