Quote of the Night – KG To Laker Ballboy Trying To Get Ball Signed – “You’ve got a better chance of catching Bin Laden”
“KG to ballboy hoping to get his ball signed: “You’ve got a better chance of catching Bin Laden”
JAdande Twitter
So J.A. Adande tweeted this and ESPN printed it and then for some reason they both deleted it, but not after about a billion people retweeted it. Not sure why they took it down? Either way it’s fucking hilarious. In your fucking face ball boy.



With the beard KG may be mistaken for Bin Laden from a distance.
KG is on a roll with his comments this year
Wtf? thats just mean.
being a miserable dick to adults = normal
being a miserable dick to kids = kinda lame
They deleted it because JA is on an ESPN show and ESPN is in the business of broadcasting the NBA and anything outside the squeaky clean image that the executive level wants, can not be reported. Such horseshit that they are even considered media.
Hell, it’s not KG’s fault the kid doesn’t understand rivalries
you goons imagine if you were KG, the kid is obviously a laker fan all hes gunna do is sell it on ebay or something. love KG for the pride he takes in his team you wont see a basketball player with his intensity ever again. start acting like fuckin celtic fans jeeez
no “kinda” about it.
it is lame. and unprofessional, and childish, and immature, and is a shit move by a shithole human being.
Yeah! What a meanie! Pussies. What a solid fucking win today. Lakers bigs looked unbelievably soft. On their own floor. Good work boys.
Should have said “You’ve got a better chance of receiving a barstool sports T-shirt within 6-8 weeks”
At least he didnt have cancer.
if by “kids” you mean the 18-24 young adult ball boy for the LA Lakers. Um. Seems pretty clear what KG did here….
Kids a cancer to his team and ballboys everywhere. Get a real job bro.
No royal rumble blog pres?? Albert del Rio in a huge upset.
hey JA if u have something to then say it be a man about it. Don’t erase it. I will smash ur face in.
Then Mark Sanchez asked the ballboy if he knew of any kids who might have cancer so he could take a picture with him and send the story to the Jets PR team.
Shouldnt be mad at KG here..we really should be hating on the Laker’s ball boy/fan for asking for a players autograph who is on a team that just anally butt raped ur squad..fuckin Benedict Arnold
too bad LA ballfag
After Kevin Garnett threw a ball into the crowd out of frustration and was ejected. They showed footage of the man that got hit by the ball being taken away in a stretcher and his daughter was crying. Charles commented that players take passes to the face all the time. He topped it off by saying: “You know why that little girl’s crying? It’s because she’s thinking ‘my daddy’s a wussy’”.
Still the best KG moment.
God you’re all a bunch of bitches saying it’s lame, fuck that kid and fuck the Lakers…KG doesn’t have to sign shit
pussification of america if you think he should of gave the terd an autograph
JA needs to fucking shut his fucking mouth, real fast. This is some rat fucking shit here. Long live KG the terriable!

I always find it funny how stupid people are to think that they actually know a public figure based on watching them play a game on TV. Yup, there are murderers, rapists, child molesters, and criminal scumbags in all shapes and forms in this world, yet Garnett is a “complete shithole of a human being” because he plays for a team you don’t like, talks a lot of shit, and does some questionable things during a game.
Completely and totally ignorant. The truth is that neither you, nor anyone else here has any fucking clue as to what type of “human being” Kevin Garnett, any other Celtic, or any other public figure is based on watching them on TV.
KG = hilarious. fuck that ballboy.
I’m not even a Celtics fan, but I was pulling for them to beat the Lakers and I was glad when they did, but as an outsider with no real interest in either team, thats a pretty dick head thing to do to a kid. Its fine to do that to an adult, thats funny as shit, but to do it to a kid who is obviously in awe of you, you pretty much just have to be an asshole. Not that this is a reflection on the rest of the team or anything, just a single dickhead doing a single dickhead thing.

Nope, I don’t know Ben Rothlesberger is like either by watching him on TV, but my gut tells me I don’t want him dating my daughter. Never even met the guy and I’m making that call. Guess that makes me a pretty shallow individual huh?
dont attribute that holier than thou lameness to me son. thats father boston george with that sermon. i hate kg, the nba and idiots named boston george
KG is such a scumbag
KG knew that kid was a Lakers fan and was probably going to go and sell the ball on ebay. Then he has the grapes to go and ask KG for an autograph after his team just got shellacked by them? KG told him to take a hike.
And you know what’s really absurd? You hear people say, “oh its not like it used to be. Athletes don’t take rivalries as serious as they did back in the day.” But then when you have an athlete that really buys into the rivalry like Tom Brady when he said, “I don’t like the Jets” or KG do this, people say, “They need to relax its just a sport.” Morons.
there’s a better chance kg signs a basketball for that player than me not running over another dog with my car.
[...] …we get Monday started with a bang and Kevin Garnett telling a L.A. ballboy hoping to get an autograph that “You’ve got a better chance catching Bin Laden.” Now, of course the blogosphere is going nuts over this comment. We clap. Loudly. How cool is it for the NBA to have a true villain. A guy who’ll go out of his way to be a complete dick. Awesome! [Barstool] [...]
Still don’t understand why white people pay to watch this shit???? Just a bunch of thugs playing basketball. You can see that for free at any inner city basketball court. You don’t see black people going to hockey games do you?
cincy, if you were from a real city you might understand.
The pussification of America continues everyday on the comments section.
The 1 and only Derekio, No blacks in Boston, Fishy Fingers, Monkey Knife Fight – can you miserable cunts find anything better to do with your time than come to a Boston website, and whine about how much you don’t like Boston teams/players/fans?
KG is a pussy because he TAPPED a dude in the nuts Friday and he went down like a ton of bricks. Then KG didn’t come close to backing down, which I don’t think I have ever seen him do.
I will take this all day – imagine if he did sign it and it was on TV? then we’d hear he is a sell out, not into the rivalry, etc. I fucken hate when Ortiz plays grab ass with Arod and Jeter before the games and they all are buddies.
Shithole of a human being. Give me a break you fucken tool.
derekio you are a faggot for trying to hate on kevin garnett because of this. just proof that even after one of our big teams go down we still have the celtics bruins and red sox to look forward to. I’m guessing you are a pussy Jets fan still crying yourself to slepp every night. fuck off.
I forgot septic butt, the biggest cunt of them all.
Really Detox? I can go to our inner city and see the same people playing. Other than money, there is no difference in the types of people. All they do is talk shit, fight, and whine like little girls during the game. The NBA is a fucking joke. And yes, I used to love the NBA back when real players were playing like Magic, Jordan, Bird, Wilkins, ect…. Look at KG, leakin all over the fucking place, dude wipe your face, you’re not braveheart.
No Player should ever feel obligated to give opposing teams fans autographs. If you think what he did was unfair and mean then you represent everything that is wrong with this country you pussy!
the little laker faggot shoud have been fired for asking. ive worked in a professional sports enviroment and it is a big no-no for a club employeee to ask any players for autographs. kg should get the dude fired too. fuck la. think bird would have signed it? no fucking way.
So KG not only likes to touch other men’s penis’ but he also likes to drop Bin Laden references on children. Yeah, sounds like a classy bostonian.
a laker ballboy wants a celtics autograph? kg should have given him the ‘chandler nut slap’.
I believe that one of the truest things ever uttered was that you judge a person by how they treat the so-called “little people.” It’s easy to kiss the ass of a celebrity or a ballplayer or a CEO or somebody. But the true test of one’s character is how they are toward cabbies, waitresses, clubhouse attendants, or those littlest of NBA little people, the ball boys. And watching this it’s pretty clear that for all his Nike/Gatorade/McDonald’s image-packaging, Lebron James is a colossal dickhead and I wish the ball boy had just thrown his sweats back in his face. In this upcoming playoff series the Celtics are going to be on the side of the angels. – April 2010
Guess KG is “a colossal dickhead and I wish the ball boy had just thrown his ball bak in his face.”
I seem to remember a barstool article that ripped Lebron for throwing his towel at a ballboy or some similarly heinous action. If we’re going to crucifix Lebron for that, let’s keep it consistent and just agree that most of the NBA are a bunch of dicks

Oh I got it. So not signing an autograph for a “kid” (likely a mid teenager or later) or being a general cocky dick on a basketball court is akin to sexually assaulting multiple chicks.
Thanks for clearing that up, makes perfect sense now.
By the way, why do people assume the “Ball Boy” was 10 years old? Did a quick google, and this guy was a “Ball Boy” for the Lakers until he was 23 years old.
Kay, pretty sure I’ve seen you all over NY blogs talking your shit too. If you think hitting a dude in the nuts when he’s defenseless is an OK move, then you’re a fucking tool.

While I agree with you to an extent, LeBron douched the kid on National TV. He pulled his sweatpants off and threw them at the kids feet as he reached to take them from him. Then he took off his jacket and threw it on the floor. Then the same with his shirt. I really don’t see the situations as too comparable, aside from the fact that it shows the NBA and pro sports in general is and always has been filled with it’s share of dicks.

I would rather be denied an autograph with a wiseass comment than have this done to me on National TV personally.
to all the KG haters - go suck a fat dick you bleeding heart bunch of pussies. fuck that kid, he’s an LA fan, would you expect KG to volunteer to be his pen pal next? fucking fags…….
KG’s a real tough guy!
and if KG did actuall hit Frye in the nuts on Friday, there’s NO WAY that flopper would have been able to jump back up off the floor that quick. It was a flop by Frye, plain and simple
Chet Cuntslather
A simple “no” would have been just as effective no? Its just KG being a piece of shit, plain and simple. I have no beef with declining autographs, but to be a dick about it and say that to a kid is BS. Can’t wait until someone wrecks Garnett in the face. He’s a pussy.
Why don’t all you Kg Haters take your aprons off and act like a man. It’s a rivalry… THE BALLBOY IS CLOSE TO 20 YEARS OLD!!! He’s not a kid, stop acting like he spit in a 4 year old’s eye.
Just do like any other sports fan…sign that shit yourself and say KG did…geeezzz grow up and stop worrying about small potatoes…
We need KG on the jets
Big white, just wondering why KG feels the need to be a cocksucker about everything he does? I know he’s on your team and you have no choice but to defend him, but the guy is a piece of shit.
Don’t give the autograph, no need to act like a bitch in the process.
KG is an asshole, but he’s not a scumbag. Who gives a flying shit if he denied a dude an autograph? He plays with an edge, and if he was on your team you would fucking love him. He’s never done anything wrong off the court, and he goes 110% every minute that he’s on the floor. He doesn’t give a fuck who he rubs the wrong way, so if you’re one of the ones who’s offended by this move, you need to put your worries somewhere else. I wouldn’t want him to be any other way.
old titties, you seem like a bitter old faggot. what KG said to the “kid” was funny. it wasnt like he made some 9 yr old kid cry or embarrassed him in front of everyone the guy is an adult.
and nobody would have ever heard about this if JA Adande didnt join the Charlie Vilenueva club of being a little bitch and putting things that should remain on the court on their gay ass twatter accounts for the world to see. then he deletes it cause he’s a pussy like Hasselbeck.
awesome.
He’s an asshole to anyone he competes against, he’s a competitor… No need to call him a scumbag piece of shit because he told a teenager he’d have a better chance at finding Bin Laden… I mean if I asked Kobe for his autograph, and he replied like that… Shit man I’d have one hell of a story for my buddies not to believe, and I’d be good with that
Fishy Fingers is obsessed with Boston sports. It must be fun to come to a Boston website everyday and whine like a little cunt.
Go jump out of a window.
I have absolutely no problem with KG here.
First of all, there’s a time to ask for autographs, and pregame isn’t one of them. It’s way out of line for ball boys to ask for autographs in pregame. Just do your job. That kid should probably be fired for asking in the first place. I’m almost positive they’re instructed not to do that. I’m sure after the game, KG would have probably done it.
Secondly, NBA ball boys aren’t boys. They’re probably 16-20 yrs old from what i’ve seen. They’re men. Stop making it out like he made an 8-yr old cry.
Third, athletes use the pregame to sharpen their focus. Especially a guy as intense as KG. The last thing they want to deal with is stupid distractions like autographs.
I’m guessing the vast majority of the people who have an issue with this have never competed in any sport at a reasonably high level.
Fourth – stop be pussies that just like to bitch about everything, all the time.
*being
[...] Kevin Garnett being a dick to a Lakers ball boy? In LA? It's true because J.A. Adande tweeted it. [Barstool Sports] [...]
EZ nothing to be bitter about. Nothing like an internet tough guy, congrats.
This is just a culmination of who KG is. If it was Durant who said it, I probably wouldn’t have a problem with it, but it was KG, who has surged up the douche ladder since he got to Boston. I bet you thought his Cancer comment was funny to. Does he get a pass for that?
A lot of you guys from cincy or NY or wherever else are talking about how essentially KG was unprofessional. While his response may have been harsh (and hilarious) I believe it was the Ballboy who was unprofessional. It is your job to tend to the ball, not to collect autographs from players on opposing teams.
It was different with LeBron, that kid was doing his job trying to take his warm up suit. With KG, the kid, guy, whatever, wasn’t doing his job asking for an autograph.
Plus the Lakers are a bunch of rapists so who cares about their fans.
Ball Boy = Young Adult most likely over the age of 20. Come on people. Its not like he’s literally 7 yrs old here
Ballboy’s or any arena/team employees are always instructed not to bother the players especially for autographs.
