 Kevin Garnett will not, will not get a Christmas gift from me at all. We didn't give a fuck about LeBron, we didn't feel LeBron and we didn't think that he can beat all five of us. What do you say to you when he was running up the court game torn out? I don't understand Italian. I don't like him. I was not there trying to be friendly. When I played, when I competed friendly I wasn't, I wasn't no good at it. I didn't play to make any friends. I wasn't playing to be liked or anything, man. I played with a ternationist of understanding that I'm about to be stepped on versus let me step, you know. And that's how I play, man. I play with no apologies. If you didn't like what I was doing or if you didn't like how I played, you either met the level or you quit. Kevin Garnett is one of the greatest NBA players of all time. An NBA champion, an MVP, a 15-time All-Star, an NBA defensive player of the year. He is one of the most ruthless, savage, cutthroat killers of all time. He's mostly known for his determination and crazy antics. He was a trash talker and that's exactly what this video is about. In this video we look at six trash talking moments by Kevin Garnett. All these stories are pieced in together. We have players telling the story as they recall it with interviews and actual game footage over the top.

The first story starts off with the young Austin Rivers. Austin Rivers was obviously a high school kid by this stage and was Doc Rivers' son, so he was around the Boston Celtics practice facility all the time. On this particular day he was facing off one-on-one against Paul Pierce, then Big Baby, then Kendrick Perkins. But then he faced off against Kevin Garnett and this is the story of what happened next. I saw him play Austin Rivers when he was like a junior in high school. Right. He got like a bucket on ticket. No, no, no. Let me tell you the story. Go ahead. Go ahead. So we come into practice probably two hours early. Everybody's in there. So we got practice. I'm saying 10. Everybody's in there about 8.30. So in there, Austin Rivers is seeing his father. You know they should come up and visit his dad because his dad, they were still living in Florida. Imagine he juiced up too. Man, he juiced up. This kid is juiced up. Guys come in here. He's feeling himself. He had a little joint. So he's playing one-on-one with Paul. So then, you know, I see him and Paul. He could Paul play ones in the morning just to get himself going before practice. So he's, you know, playing one. And he's giving Paul some good work, you know? And Perk like, hold on. Let me get some of this. I got to get some of this because he's the stopper. Everybody, if you want to see what your game is, you play Perk one-on-one, right? Perk ain't going for no pump fakes. He's just real sound. Man, he giving Perk the business. Austin Rivers. Yeah, got him. I came in here. So I'm like, I came in here. And, you know, he's playing gosh-to-five. I think he's Mott's. I think he beat P. And then he Mott, Perk 5-0 and, you know... Yeah, can you go to court? I have my shoelaces on line. I came in from the weight room and he rolled the ball. And I said, what? And I looked at it and hit my toes. I said, what? He said, check. I said, check. Yeah, everybody like... And then, you know, I'm a dragon, bro. I'm a dragon, and I know this is... I know your dad, the coach, so I got to be real careful on how I let this dragon out. This a kid. This is a high school kid. He got a lot of confidence, but I'm a dragon. This throw the ball to me, so calm and collective. I just, you know, kick the ball to him. I walk back. He says, check. Now, I went on the other side of the check, you know, when you're checking on the bottom. So I got on the top. I said, you're a kid. What you mean? You check. Get the ball. Like, you don't get the ball first. Yeah, he was on him. So I took the round and gave him the ball. And my shoes was untied. And he shot the first one. Made it. Made the five. Boom. I said, hold on. I saw off the over. Matter of fact, he dunked it. Remember, he dunked it, and the ball went all in. And I went like this. I said, hold on. And I tied my shoe, and I heard a piece say, yeah. I heard him and T.A. say, yeah, tie them shoes. Tied them shoes. And that's when the dragon came out. And I just... I'm off thing five one. I had to go dragon. He had so much swag that I was like, man, do I spit fire on him? When I saw how hard he dunked it. Oh, no, this kid's shit. Let me tighten you up. I tied up, and I went five straight. But I tapped him. He working on your game. He was hot through the ball. The man was a scrap. He was hot. That threw him out. Get out. Go get him. We'll work with you again. That's why you got mopped up. Let's start practicing. Listen. That's what I knew, man. This man is not losing nobody. That's what I knew. That's what I knew right there. That's what I knew right there. Austin Rivers is going to be in our league about two years. Yeah, he said that. You said that. I said he's going to be in our league about two years. He said that. He's going to be in the league. He hated losing. He wanted to fight. I said, boy, you don't get out of here. Boy, I was a dragon. Boy, we just who? Boy, if you don't... We was both going. But the way he was reacting, he was acting like he was a pro already. That's incredible. Then I almost slapped him in that horn game. You don't calm down, boy. You what? You remember that? During the one game, he said something. And I caught myself. When he made it to the league? He got to the league. We got into it. He said something real slick. And I almost raised up the slap. And I caught myself like, man, I ain't finna be kicked out again. Boy, let me quit. The next story talks about a moment where Stephen Adams was facing up against Kevin Garnett for the first time, whilst Kevin Garnett was entering the end of his career. But still, he was an amazing trash talker and wanted to get into Stephen Adams' head. The story is just so funny because of what Stephen Adams says next. He's got this presence about him. Yeah, it's intimidating. I played the English card one time. He said something and I was just like, no English. No English, mate, sorry. So kind of left me alone, which is brilliant. Yeah, but the way he just talks to everyone, it's not so much as a trash talk. Obviously, he's like phenomenal at it. But it's more sort of like how he runs the team and how everyone in the team kind of picks up off his energy and it just does what he says. That was probably the only story that doesn't involve an actual story about anything KG said, but I just had to put it in this video because it was just so funny that he believed that Stephen Adams couldn't speak English and never spoke to him on the court ever. Most of us know about the feud between Joe Kim Noah and Kevin Garnett, but if you don't, here's the story. It takes place when Joe Kim Noah was a rookie entering the league. He was a huge fan of Kevin Garnett growing up. He had posters, memorabilia, and absolutely loved Kevin Garnett. He idolized KG. But when Joe Kim entered the league and played against KG for the first time, KG wasn't having any of it and ripped into Joe Kim Noah. Ever since then, the beef has been on and this is what happened. All right, here we go, ready? Because you have famous beef with Joe Kim Noah. I don't have any beef with anybody. Can you tell us your first interaction with Joe Kim Noah? Listen, I don't have any. We don't have interaction. I'll handle this, Kevin. He does not need to. Let's go. That's the end of the interview. We're here competing. I'm not going to give you anything. The end of the story was Joe Kim Noah. It was like, you were my idol growing up and Kevin just turned to him and said, fuck you, Noah. I don't know. He asked real shit. He asked me the move I just gave him. They could figure it out. Get out of here. Fuck, I'll look like. I'll fuck I'll look like, man. I'm going to get that out of you. You've got a bull right now. I'm getting mad. All right. So tell us your side of that story. I'm going to tell you straight up. KG was, first of all, I just don't understand how I don't think he remembers because I think the story meant a lot more to me than it did to him. Right. What sucks is that when I was growing up, I used to have his poster in my room. I used to wear his jersey. And the truth is, you know, my rookie year, I was, you know, in admiration of this guy. And, you know, he kind of shut me down. And, you know, he was very mean to me, my rookie year. It was like, Kevin, I had posters of you when I was growing up. Listen, it's a time and place for everything. You don't ask someone during the game or during competition to, no, not me. You don't ask me anything during competition. I'm not, I can't, you can't. Focus. Right. We're here competing. I'm not going to give you anything. The end of the story was joking. No, it was like, you were my idol growing up and Kevin just turned to me and said, fuck you, Noah. I had KG posters in my wall. I had a fucking KG jersey growing up. So this is the story. This is what happened. The first time I played KG, I'm hype as hell. Like we're playing the Celtics. I'm on the bulls. And I think they're up like 30 points. And I'm in the game, like it's like the last seconds. Like nobody gives a shit. So we're at the free throw line. And he used to work out with this guy called Joe Abunasar. And I was working out with him for pre-draft. So I was always excited. I was always hoping like KG would walk in the gym. And, you know, I was, I would be able to like work out with him. And I remember asking him a question about, you know, you like, you going, you going to work out with Joe? I was just trying to be cool. Like I was just wanting to be, I just wanted to say something to my idol. And he just like looked over and he was like, you're like, who the fuck are you talking to? Who the fuck do you think you're talking to? And then like when he said that, I was like, oh, shit. I shouldn't have. And then like, I kind of fell back knowing that I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have said that, like not, not during the game. Right. You know. And then I didn't say anything. And then when I didn't say anything, I guess he thought I was the fucking, I guess he thought I was pussy or something because he was like, he kept like getting like louder and louder. And then I was like, and then from that, from that moment on, I swear to God, I was like, yo, I'm going at him. Every single time we play, we are going at it. And he's only mean to the young guys and the heroes for some reason. You know, I don't know why, but he's, that's who he doesn't like. Charlie Villanova too. I mean, what was that all about? Did you guys catch the Villanova story? I mean, it's just not nice stuff to say, you know. Too far. This next story of Kevin Garnett going in on Camelo Anthony's wife is one that many around the NBA thought to have been way too far by Kevin Garnett. Kevin Garnett probably did say what he did because Mello wouldn't have reacted the way he did. Hello everyone. If the Knicks and Celtics were not a rivalry before last night, it sure is one now. The Celtics getting the better of the Knicks 102 to 96, but everyone's talking about what went down after the game. We know KG and Carmelo got into it a little bit during the game. Both guys getting the technical. Well, Carmelo let it spill over to after the game. You see him in the red hat right there waiting alongside the Celtics team bus for Kevin Garnett. A lot of people want to hear from you about this whole honey night cheerio. But a lot happened in between. Jordan Crawford of the Boston Celtics apparently told Carmelo Anthony KG after his wife. Possibly one of the bench players. All right, it started right here. Yeah, it was Crawford and Felton. But then that year they played off in an All-Star game, so they obviously hashed it out and worked out everything in the end. One time during the year you and Kevin Garnett got into it a little bit as his teammate right now, have you been cheering locker, sharing stories, getting along with it? Yeah, you want to take it. There you go right there. You want to make sure everything's cool with you guys? Come on, man. You would come in here with that outfit on and ask that type of question. And this last story talks about KG and Big Baby Davis. There are two stories involved in this one story that we all know about Glenn Davis crying on the bench. KG ripped into Big Baby on the bench, but what was their relationship like in the first place? Glenn Davis tells the story. So what's the real story on that story? I'm going to clear this up for the world right here. I'm going to tell the story with you and KG, the big ticket story. I'm a rookie and it's kind of like the first day everybody's coming back and they're getting acclimated in. You know, they're playing pick up, everybody's working out and stuff like that, so we have a pick up game. You know, he's the four and I'm the four. So I get the ball at the wing and I shoot it. Like I shoot it. I tell myself, I tell myself, I'm talking to myself though. Get up, get it up. He turned and looked like, that little motherfucker, you talking shit? First, you know what I'm saying? Because I'm really aware with crazy stuff like that. So I'm like, I ain't talking shit to you. I'm talking to myself, big fella. Like I ain't at you. He was like, and then I was like, I'm just trying to get my little swag, right? They say, fuck your swag. Then, you know, the other side of me was like, okay, well, fuck your swag. And I'm literally like, yo, fuck your swag. Yeah, I'm running back. He's like, all right, shit, shit, all right. You know how you born? Born. Like a bull. Yeah, okay, this bitch is like, you know what I'm saying? That's how you say it. That's how you know me. I'm like, all right. That's what I gotta do to get on. How many of you come out? Me being a rookie the next day, I'm thinking like I'm in there early. Ticket walk right by me. I'm like, what's up, Ticket? He just walked. Like, he ain't even see me. Like, he ain't wanna talk to me. You know what I mean? Don't acknowledge me. You saying what's up? That crushed me. I gotta make this right. So you know, I walked up to him and I was like, bro, did I do something wrong to you? You know, yesterday I thought that stayed on the court. If I did, I apologize. And he looked at me and he was like, you know, we're young and I fuck with you. And after that, we was locked in. Garnett doesn't miss words. And sometimes it's tough. And now, David's down at the end with a towel on his head. Garnett didn't wanna come back in the game, but he's had to because what was a 25 point lead is now 13. Funk was just frustrated. And he was in a moment to where we all felt he needed a second. So, you know, he went to the end of the bench and, you know, he cried and had a moment with himself. But I'm gonna roll with a guy who's gonna show me his heart and wear his heart on his sleeve and gonna play with passion over anything. I was a rookie and you don't get to play. So when you mess up and, you know, you about to come out of the game. Right. And we were up and I'm upset because my bills need to be paid. I need to, you know, I can't be taking me out of the game. It's chop minutes right now. So, you know, I'm really passionate about, you know, and that's why I played with them because I took every possession serious.
