His team(s) have/had too much to lose if he goes that far. Chris Childs could afford to do that. KG couldn't. It isn't about him doing a fake tough guy it is about him doing just enough to not get thrown out.

While with Sacramento during the 2003–04 season, he led the league in three-point field goal accuracy with 48.2 percent.[5] During that season's playoffs, during game 6 matchup between Sacramento and Minnesota, Peeler threw an elbow at former Timberwolves teammate Kevin Garnett, followed by a left hook;[6][7] Peeler was suspended for 2 games,[7] which included a game 7 loss, which ended the Kings' season

Nobody said that about Jordan or GP. Or did they? I know they didn't do as much as KG, but they talked a whole lot. And I am not condoning KG's behavior. Yes he does too much at times but honestly, how is it so upsetting to you all? It is pure comedy to me because I KNOW he does it partially as a joke. He does it to break into the mind of his opponents. And why would he "fight" Anthony Peeler? Come on, is that a fair trade off?

I can't waste any more time in trying to explain to simple minded nuts like you anymore.You will quote me and come at me because I'm a Wolves fan, which you think somehow makes my point invalid...Typical.

You being a wolves fan is probably why you riding, but he did display heart back then at times. Actually did more playing than "entertaining" time's have changed though. Now son is a mascot/hype man. You can find more videos of his antics than him coming up big when it matters. Talking trash and acting intense, is different than actually displaying your heart. Not much more to say

Anyway, I do agree that in Minnesota his intensity was more focused on game play than it was games with individuals, but he still did this and it really was only magnified in Boston (bigger market, Championship caliber team) and then manifested itself into something bigger than it really is.

Always playing hard every damn night. How is that not toughness? Oh yea because he isn't a closer? Really? We are going to use that as a reason to say he doesn't back up his bark? Ok.
