Well it looks as if that little scuffle between Kevin Garnett and Andrew Bogut on Saturday in the match-up between the Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks is resulting in a one game suspension for KG. Well at least that is what is being reported by the Boston Herald here. I haven’t been able to find too much more information on the suspension yet, but it seems the suspension for Garnett is being attributed to the little slap in the face he gave Bogut at the end of the scuffle. KG has been feisty his whole career, but hopefully the Celtics won’t have to deal with too many distractions like this for the rest of the year from KG, as they need to focus on defending their title. An achievement that most Champions have ended up failing to do over the history of the league.
I’ve got to admit, even though Garnett probably should have refrained from retaliating when Bogut inadvertently slapped him in the face, Bogut’s reaction of shock and disgust was ‘overacting’ at its best. Even Jim Carrey would be proud, Bogut!
If you didn’t catch the game, or just want to watch the replay of the scuffle a million times over, here is your chance thanks to good ol’ YouTube:
