Doesn't surprise me. The worst that he's done so far is against the Celtics.
I moved the cheese.

Maybe if he played some D on that pass instead of scrambling around for that shoe, the Knicks wouldn't have gotten a layup on the other end.

Celtics fans are a funny bunch. Kevin Garnett gets away with much worse on a daily basis. ie: His elbows, illegal screens, cheap shots. Why does he do this? To get inside a players head.
Wade hasn't broken any rules.
To me, this was a smart move and Wade is trying to get inside Bibby's (and the Knicks) heads.
Just throw it out the way and buy yourself some time.

People on this forum are very one eyed, which is understandable, but if KG did this no one here would blink an eye.
Wade is one of the smartest players in the NBA. If Bibby's shoe is on the court in front of him, he'll make Bibby go get it.
I would hope Pierce would do the same to Wade or Lebron if the situation arose. Get em' nice and angry. There are much worse things than this.

Right, except it failed spectacularly. It's such a pity that he Knicks are actually a pretty poor team.

Lol.. You my friend.... are overreacting.  Seems like you took this thread as an opportunity to bash Celticsbloggers... you could go to another site you know. 

As for the Wade incident, I'm all for competitive advantages.. Bibby shoulda tied his shoe better, like c'mon that's kindergarten stuff.. 

And I love everything KG does.  From the elbows, to the cheap shots, to the swearing.. It's all in the name of competition.  And it's not like KG is the only one doing these kind of things.. 

It's been going on since professional basketball started so.. theres that. Where do u think KG learned it from? The veterans that he used to play against when he was younger.....

I feel this is more an issue of human nature than anything else.. In competition, humans will always try to get an advantage.. If you want to win, thats what its going to take.

Oh you know something we don't do you? I thought they won easily. Once again, not everything KG does works, but he tries it because he's a competitor and wants any edge he can get bar blatant cheating. No one here would care if Garnett did the exact same thing and they'd laugh and say it was a smart move.

Don't see how I'm over reacting in the slightest.
It's like the pot calling the kettle black and it's important that people recognize their bias because many people don't. I don't think what I said was offensive- just an opinion. Doesn't mean you or anyone else has to agree with me.

Going away from your point, do you think we'd be reading this topic if KG did the same thing?

Agree with chambers 100%. Celtics fans love calling Wade dirty, but KG is easily one of if not the dirtiest player in the league. Who cares, if it's legal and gains them an advantage then a player should by all means go for it no matter what jersey they're wearing.

Red Auerbach would approve and I have no problem with it.

If anything I find it funny.

If you want to talk about being biased.. You're being biased towards celticsbloggers by assuming we're all biased.. which is wrong..  If you cared to read how i felt about the Wade shoe tossing, you would see that I am not biased... although I'm a celtics fan.. so yes.. you're overreacting.

I bet you most people on this site are OK with Wade tossing the shoe.. I'm willing to put money on it actually

Fair game, since when did tossing someone's uniform pieces or shoes became sportsmanlike?   

Wade is a dirty player and this just confirms it.

If KG did it to an opponent you would have laughed. Admit it.
