Is Garnett out-of-control this season?

[Marley2Hendrix]

I don't know, I just think it's hilarious that a guy thought it would be a good idea to get down on his hands and knees and bark like a dog at someone, and have everyone be like "YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS OF KG!!!!! We won championship and that mean he can act like dogman!!!" or "You'd kill to have THAT sort of intensity on YOUR team. The type of intensity where you pretend to be a dog."

I mean, I'd probably be like "Hahaha, whoops! Guess he just got carried away there!" I don't know, maybe I'm wrong here, in fact, I'm looking forward to what's he's going to do next. I'm sort of at a loss trying to figure out how he could top that.

Awesome, I actually want Adidas to make that the concept of the shirts for the next playoff run.

----------------------------------Boston.-------------------------------------
We are so intense, we will pretend to be dogs... rabid dogs.
---------------------------------Believe.--------------------------------------

again, I don't mind KG's displays because they truly seem to be in the flow of the game, and I doubt he ever orchestrated the dog barking like an Ocho-Cinco endzone dance, he's just showing the psychological ramifications of what it means to have millions of dollars hinging on playing a game. I await his next actions, and hell, I'd love to have seen grow up in Europe and become a soccer star, Zidane was equally intense, and he manifest his emotions in the form of the most wicked headbutt ever, KG, who knows? flying crane kick to the face? (*not condoning violence, just condoning awesome GIFs/youtubes)



edited to add: Nothing, NOTHING!!! KG will ever do will be as insufferable as DEEETROIT BASSSSKETBALLLLLLLLLLL

Agreed...much ado about nothing. And all of these haters would be defending KG to the death if he was doing this on their team...

You're right, I wish my favourite player got down on his hands and knees and barked like a dog at an opponent. It shows strength of character and powerful game-changing intensity. What is more frightening than a dog barking at you? A grown man pretending to be a dog, that's what!

I think you can think about it to another level too. Getting down on your hands and knees and barking like a dog illustrates that the TD Banknorth center is a dog pound, and that the fans are his "dawgs", dawgs that are willing to ignore even the most egregious taunting and defend their dog-man's ability to do whatever he wants, WHENEVER he wants. Strong survive baby! Darwinism at work!

If you think about it on that level, Garnett is almost a philosopher. Didn't Neitzche himself say that the ubermensch is the goal for humanity to strive towards? Those who refuse to back down, those with the strength of character to take what they want? This is that philosophy in action, and Garnett clearly had that in mind when he launched into his vicious bark-attack on the tiny Bayless.

Jerryd Bayless was clearly shaken by the display, barely even managing to score on the next play, as if to indicate that he had completely given up hope.

Very funny, Alfred. But you're still wrong KG will do anything to win. It's that simple. Even Nietzsche can agree with that--KG has what Nietzsche called the 'will to power'. It's funny that since KG's will to power has translated into an NBA championship, people--all of a sudden--take issue with his antics. KG came out the womb this way, but when he finally wins people want to hate on him for it. What you people should do is take his example to heart and start getting championships in your own life.

Marley2Hendrix, I agree with you...I've always hated the stupid **** "dancing" Ray Lewis does before a game...it looks idiotic, and coupled with the fact I think he's overrated and I've hated him for years, it pisses me off to no end. Same with the retardation that is the Pistons (led by Rasheed Wallace) dancing prior to tip-off.

At least KG does most of his **** in the flow of the game (and as an aside, is anyone else irked how the whole chalk dust in the air thing is being associated with LeBron when KG was doing that **** when LeBron was in elementary school? Anyone who's seen those commercials knows what I mean...not a big deal but it's like, dude, get your OWN gimmick!)

abso- friggin- lutely. Im also sick of hearing about where he will sign in 2010. I for one hope he stays in Cleveland just to stick it to the teams trying to clear cap to sign him. coughKNICKScough.

I'd be surprised if he doesn't sign with the Knicks FWIW. Some guys (and I dont know why) are just attracted to NYC. I live here though and I think its overrated. I would rather live some place nice warm clean and sunny..

Anyway Lebron is one of those guys who wants to make a big splash. Like it or not NYC is a better place to do that. Throw in the fact that Cleveland is called the "mistake by the lake"... and not really considered a nice city at all..

I mean does anyone go on vacation to Cleveland...?

Hahaha, I thought I was the only one who knew it was called Mistake By the Lake!!

Yeah he'll bolt. He has stated repeatedly he wants to be a "Global Icon"...where better than NYC?
