According to his peers, Kevin Garnett is the worst trash-talker in the NBA.
And it isn't close.
Garnett received 62 percent of the vote in a Sports Illustrated poll of 173 league players who were asked to name the worst trash talker in the league. The second-place finisher -- the Lakers' Kobe Bryant -- had 7 percent.

Moment I realized that:
One of those series where the Spurs put the Wolves down in round one. (I think it was the one where Flip stole one of the two games in Texas.)
The contrast between Garnett and Duncan was so obvious.
"It has come to the editor’s attention that the Herald-Leader neglected to cover the civil rights movement. We regret the omission."
yeah
TD just whines to the refs. Garnett never ever did that.

Look for plenty of jawing from the Lakers' star
in the playoffs, as Kobe hates finishing second in anything.
off topic:

Gerald would have an still would be too thowed in minny!!!!
MAYN HOL UP!
There should be an asterisk next to it pointing out that he only talks trash to bench players. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him jaw with a player on his level.
When I get sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead. True story.
I dont know
62% is a lot of votes… And I know he has given Al Jefferson quite a bit of crap when they played.
Well, he does talk ALOT, just to worse players. Al is/was definitely not on his level. My point was that he never seems to talk trash to the Kobes/LBJs etc. It’s usually the Francisco Elson types that he rags on.
When I get sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead. True story.
Yeah for sure
I’m just a little surprised that anyone could garner 62%… good for him. It should be kept as a stat.
I don't know
I remember him getting on Lebrons nerve during the 2008 playoffs, and then there was the one time where told Kobe "F*** You, remember, hell, i even remember him trash talking Duncan and Shaq
You were a daydreamer, a sass-mouth, and, not infrequently, a bit of a gigglepuss. Somehow I doubt twenty years of amphetamines and failure have done anything to improve that.
