I remember Anthony Peeler messing KG up in the playoffs a couple years ago.

Honestly... who cares. It wasn't like players like Larry Bird,DrJ,MJ, and countless others refused to talk smack to other players.

KG no doubt leads the league in fist-to-mouth expressions of frustration/anger/whatever. If anyone's popping anything, it's him anyway.

I'd be more concerned about the snotty little perimeter players who think they're tougher than they are.

Must be true, if it's a rumor you read on Hoopshype.

Showed how much he cares about winning and his passion for the game. Much rather have a passionate player than a guy who doesn't care about whether his team is winning or not.

If Garnett likes to pump himself up during the game, and plays great as a result, who really cares?

He's had like 1 in-game altercations in 12 years.

I can't really see any head coach, regardless of what PORT's said or not be like "Omg guys KG just said get that **** outta here as he blocked your shat! go in there and **** him up!"

Really it's not going to come back to him, this isn't the WWE, this is the NBA post-Palace fight era.

If anyone was going to get anything in return physically it would of been the god trash talker known as Payton or "The Glove".

He has had at least three and always looks like a wuss coming out of it. He should win a few more basketball games or some fights before he talks so much.

Edit: Maybe just two now that I think about it.

I don't mind it, think it's fun a good deal of the time, but sometimes it's just like "what are you doing?" and not necessary.

Not sure if this one is included, but he and Ron Artest had something above-average, at Boston. Physically and verbally. Artest didn't back down to him, after KG initiated the situation, double technicals were assigned, I think.
