Kevin Garnett’s Unique Villainy
↵
Kevin Garnett's cup check on Channing Frye a little more than a week ago unleashed another torrent of accusations of punkhood toward The Big Ticket (and rightfully so). Suns coach Alvin Gentry even went so far to say he had lost respect for KG, which is actually pretty serious when you consider how calm Gentry usually is.
↵Jeff Clark of SB Nation’s CelticsBlog looks at Garnett’s villainy through the prism of being a Boston Celtics fan and a father that doesn’t feel comfortable with KG as a role model. It’s an interesting perspective on the age-old question of what we want out of athletes, and well worth a read.
