Mitch Lawrence: KG a "classless winner"

[bleedingreen]

Mitch Lawrence, your dead to me.

jesus l live in new york the day l pickup the post someone better pay me some good amount of money by far the worst newspaper

[SamuelAdams]

Classless is the new way to whine when you are on the losing end.

"Oh they beat us but they didn't have to run up the score."

"Oh they were better but they celebrated too hard."

It comes fromm too much non-score keeping soccer games, overly concerned about self esteem baloney used by LOSERS today.

I think it's actually the NY Daily News.

[eddietours]

yeah am sorry is the post also a bad one lol new york times for me

[bbc3341]

all of these guys from Lawrence to Vecsey are saying much, much more about themselves than they are about KG. Anyone who thinks KG is classless or "counterfeit" should turn in their NBA press credentials, unless they retract...

[CoachCowens]

He looks pretty dimwitted to me

[Triboy16]

so kg got emotional that he won after how many years in the league and he was spilling alchohol on his teammates??

You never see kg act like a clown like that all the time, he had the right to act a little crazy that night.

[Truth Hurts]

What a complete joke. KG is one of the classiest players in the league.

Maybe he takes exception to KG's hard foul on Odom up big late in the game. Let me tell you something, Mitch, you whining NY loser...when a guy takes a cheap shot at your teammate during the regular season, practically knocking him into the 3rd row....and then almost puts his [dang]ed eye out in thr Finals.....Odom is lucky that's all he got. Garnett should have hammered him to the floor.

Mitch Lawrence is a "classless writer."

[TerreHaute]

These are probably the same guys who, a year ago, were saying that KG, Ray, and Paul would never be considered great players until they won a championship. These guys have been listening to the "expert sportswriters" say that crap for years. Then, when they finally get over the hump, the "experts" don't like how the way these guys acted when it was shoved in their face. Looks like the "experts" don't like eating crow any more than us regular folk.

On another note, I guess I would be a bit crabby if I had to watcht he Knicks and Nets all season, too.

Hahaha...quotes of wisdom from the pre-Finals "article":

"They're the most dominant team still standing and the favorites, as far as we're concerned, even if they won't have the home-court advantage."

"Here's why they can prepare to hang another banner at Staples Center. They have what Boston and about 28 other teams don't possess. Bryant is the best closer in the game..."

"'We play for one thing and one thing only, and that's championships,' Bryant said after taking out the Spurs. 'Now the real season starts.'  The Celtics can consider that fair warning."

Tells you about all you need to know about this cat...he's a bandwagon jumper when making picks, then after things happen he plays the "shockingly contrarian" card like so many others.  Guys like this need pageviews and media appearances to survive, and praising winners isn't what gets them.  Who knows if clowns like him and Plaschke even believe what they're saying themselves, they're just looking to be controversial to attract more attention.  Sad thing is, it usually works.

LOL I fired off an e-mail questioning the validity of his statements and he fired an e-mail right back at me.  Here is the quick response:


First off, I am a huge KG fan.
But his post-game rant at courtside was BS....
I know he was in the moment, but show a little humility. Or is that too much to expect?

[celticinorlando]

that was 100 percent real emotions by KG....maybe if the knicks had some of that they wouldnt suck as bad

Would love an explanation of how he lacked humility on the sidelines. And if he did, he had the right considering how much criticism he has gotten over the years don't ya think? I guess hugging Russell and asking him if he was proud of the team was not good enough. KG also thanked Minnesota, Chicago and his birth place. A 'writer' who comes back with saying something is BS is the one who is BS.

He is still getting criticized after he wins the title. Nothing is good enough for these clowns.
