Oh so would I, KG is still a phenomenal player, but he's fugazy, his fake toughness isn't fooling anyone but Tommy Suckson.

You see this is where I lose respect for him, at least Carmelo Anthony flat out ran away, he knew he was wussing out and he didn't try to cover it up. KG on the other hand just keeps talking but as he's talking he's running away and throwing weak punches that miss everybody. KG is trying to cover up his wussyness but is failing at doing so, much like he failed in the majority of his playoff series.


Lose respect for BASKETBALL players because they are poor fighters?

Ok, you can have a team full of people who can fight and I'll have a team full of people who can play basketball.

BTW, I care more about players who play through pain/injuries and play at 100% percent every game and practice...that's more indicative of toughness in terms of basketball. In those terms, KG is one of the toughest players in the league unlike someone like Vince Carter.

I fully agree with you on that but it's not what I have a problem with. I have a problem with you're constantly saying that the bonner/KG incident shows that KG is a wimp. yeah he might be but in that incident there's no sign that KG is soft.

and I forgot to say that even if the refs hold him back you can say that to many other players because if the refs try to hold them back they'll mostly let it be and calm down

The ball throw, the smack talk, and the failure to back it up. It's undeniable evidence that KG isn't the big bad wolf he wants everyone to think he is. It's just an ego thing with KG, and one of the reasons why I've never been a big fan of him. If he's going to talk and yell so much at least have the balls to take on Matt Bonner.

KG was being jerk against Bonner in that play. All it was, was a hard foul and he didn't need to react like a thug. If Bonner got ejected for that, Kg should have been aswell for going after him.

Also, Pape Sow would have dropped him if he actually made a move.


I didn't say that KG a class act there either but I don't like it if people want to use that incident to convince people that KG is soft. yeah he might be but this incident is no proof for that matter

Or maybe he was back pedaling to avoid suspension? This is stupid anyway, I'm locking it.
