" Lost among Kevin Garnett&amp;#039;s MVP, his 2008 title ring, and his famous &amp;quot;Anything is possible!&amp;quot; battle cry is the reality that the future hall-of-fame forward is, not even arguably, a total dick. Most are just realizing this thanks to near fisticuffs Monday night at Madison Square Garden, after Garnett, as Knicks star Carmelo Anthony put it, &amp;quot;crossed a line.&amp;quot; Apparently, the Big Ticket had some creepy words to say about Anthony&amp;#039;s wife of two years and the mother of his son. La La Vasquez, Garnett told Anthony during the game, &amp;quot;tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios.&amp;quot; But if this is your introduction to Garnett&amp;#039;s trash talk, you&amp;#039;re all forgetting about the time he said Charlie Villanueva, who suffers from alopecia, looked like a cancer patient. Or when he wished &amp;quot;Happy Mothers&amp;#039; Day, motherfucker,&amp;quot; to Tim Duncan, whose mom famously died of breast cancer when he was only fourteen. Garnett has previously taken home top honors as the league&amp;#039;s biggest trash-talker when he earned 62 percent of a players&amp;#039;-poll vote by Sports Illustrated, but no matter the &amp;quot;off-limits&amp;quot; subject matter, Garnett&amp;#039;s insults get the job done. Carmelo said the comments affected his game Monday, and he&amp;#039;s actually facing suspension after the altercation, while Garnett is riding his mouth to a three-game winning streak and a likely fifteenth All-Star Game appearance. Add to that the fact that Honey Nut Cheerios are actually pretty delicious, and you have to wonder if we can really even blame the man for his exploits.
