Well, I'd like to see the context first before making a true judgement.

I mean if the kid came up to KG right before the game, I totally understand KG blowing the kid off.  If I'm getting ready for a game, the last thing I want to be is bothered by someone for an autograph.

Knowing how geared up & focused KG gets before games, if this happened during the pregame shootaround I have no problem with KG blowing off the kid's request.  

I'd like to know the setting when this request took place.

Also, did Spears see this firsthand or was this reiterated to him by someone else?

You know what would be really really great would be if the kid joined the army and caught bin Laden.  Then he could probably get KG to sign the ball.

I dont see any lack of class in not sharing anyuthing with opponent or opponent fans, every player face the things in their own way, I dont have anything against players that socialize with them either i think thats a player right and wathever works for their motivation is fine by me.

So?? He doesn't want to sign it..big deal.

I know you're one of the few people who sticks up for LeBron on this blog...like the time someone posted a video about him throwing his jersey while the the guy had his hand stretched out. If I'm not mistaken you didn't find anything wrong with it (not faulting you for having a different opinion)....so, why does this bother you?

If you are going to throw "classy" every other time you talk about KG..atleast have the same definition of "class" for all basketball players.

I'm actually surprised that after a nice win against LA, all you could do was come up with a tweet that tries to paint a Celtic in bad light...and frankly I don't see anything wrong with what KG did..I'm not staying classy this weekend either.

I usually like Marc Spears, but does this really need to be reported?

Very nice, love it.  TP.

No problem with what KG did either.  If you're part of the Lakers you're part of the Lakers.  As long as he didn't cuss the kid out or anything I like that mindset.

Yes. We all need to know how awesome KG is and how dumb Lakers ball boys are. If I have to watch the Celts get refed by Joey Crawford then I get to hear this stuff
