Kevin Garnett Is A Nice Guy

I don't remember him being this mean in his MVP days. I guess winning changes everything.

I remember I read in Beckett Basketball Monthly (back in '01) that KG has a serious attitude problem. The article was about players that you shouldn't approach for autographs and KG was #3 on the list.

They said that when they tried to get his autograph he snatched the pen and intentionally smeared the ink with his hand while he was writing... I'm really not that shocked that he would haul off and punch a rookie.

For all you weak ass fans keep in mind he was playing in LA. Why give an LA fan ballboy his autograph? he doesn't like the lakers, thats how to act. your all *******

[The_Yearning]

Why would you ask KG for his autograph anyways?

Right, and he didn't have a more respectful alternative to turn him down.

lol that's funny

[Bernie Nips]

that is absolutely brilliant. I tip my hat to you KG.

[SoCalMike]

yep, he's definitely a class act...

[strifed169]

why do all the known a hole players treat ballboys like crap, see lbj vs ballboy

[jasonresno]

What a *****. Take his ability to hoop away and he's just a fan like the kid.

[AMISTILLILL]

I don't blame him. I'd expect a similar attitude from Lamar Odom in Boston.

Agreed.

some lessons are meant to be taught the hard way. the kid will now learn not to try to get signatures from boston players while working for the lakers.

KG is an asshole but he is a correct asshole :)

So most believed that KG wasn't enough of a wordsmith to say that Villanueva was cancerous, but everyone believes he can pull out an Osama line like that off the top of his head?

Well, whatever works for disliking KG I guess.


KG is in the right to not give the kid an autograph, but he could've been nicer. Still, it's not a huge deal.

KG's in the right to turn down a fan, a kid no less, asking for an autograph?
