Wiretap:
"Sports Illustrated released the results of a new poll that asked NBA players who was the league's biggest trash talker," wrote Alan Hahn of Newsday. "Super-intense Kevin Garnett took first place by a landslide of 62 percent out of 173 NBA players polled. Kobe Bryant (7%) was second, followed by Rasheed Wallace (5%). Fourth on the list was Nate Robinson (3%), who tied with Paul Pierce."

If Eddie got more minutes you could probably add him to the list. We were the biggest trash talking team last year and adding Sheed gives us that by a landslide.

This is quite an honor. You practice talking trash as a kid. You work hard at it your whole life. You hope for a day like this and when it finally arrives, it's such a wonderful feeling.

Funny..never really saw Kobe as much of a trash talker...he actually looks pretty classy and quiet..at least that's the image I have of him when I see his games..guys like Wade, Al Harrington, S-Jax seem to talk alot more..Pierce should def be in front of him on that list..

They should do an officials poll and see who they think complains the most. We'd probably have a few names up there too.

There was one game I know I heard Mr. Wallace tell one ref to "be a man" and back up his call. The talk does not stop with the players. Techs aside......I just love this team......they just need to get and stay healthy.....they will steamroll the East.

we're number 1! Larry Bird and Michael Jordan both talked a ton of trash and they were pretty good players as I recall- also won a bunch of championships. Personally, I don't like it but if it gets them motivated and keeps their head in the game then so be it.
