Payton is just mad cuz he wanted in on the Celtics bandwagon but couldn't get on cuz he's well past his prime. He's always had a mouth on him, and he's just hating on KG, otherwise he would've had an answer immediately for a SF replacement. He had to be told Bosh's name to dispute stats. Yeah, Bosh is playing well, but KG is the allstar. IF, I had to replace KG though, I would actually pick Granger cuz he's on a garbage team but still making it happen against the best teams (Spurs, Lakers, Celtics)
Either way, KG deserves to be starting b/c w/o his game, our team wouldn't be doing as well. And as Kenny said, Bosh COULD NOT replace KG in a green jersey and produce the same results.
