“Dunked Kevin Garnett and Called Him All Types of ‘B*t*h’”: Iman Shumpert Reminisced About His Revenge on KG Amidst Carmelo Anthony Beef
Kevin Garnett is perhaps one of the greatest players in NBA history. He is certainly one of the greatest power forwards.
However, it wasn’t just his skill that made him great. But, rather a combination of that and his intimidating and competitive personality made him one of the best.
That being said, there were times when it worked against him. Like when he trash-talked Iman Shumpert only to get dunked on and called a b*t*h.
Carmelo Anthony paid Iman Shumpert’s fine after he dunked on Kevin Garnett and called him a b*t*h
Kevin Garnett never shied away from a fight. Especially when it came to mind games. The man had no boundaries and would target anyone.
However, there have been times when his trash talk has backfired. For example, when he decided to call Iman Shumpert a pu**y. A decision that ended with him being dunked on and called a b*t*h!
“I came in the game. They fouled me on a layup. So I was walking to the free-throw line, and KG goes:’I smell pus*y, Lord!’ I looked around like, yo! You talking to me? What’s up dude? You don’t like me or something? That’s not trash talk to me, but to him, once your mad, now he can play his game for real. Boy, I dunked that ball the next play and called him all types of bit*h! I got a tech. Melo paid it tho!”
Things didn’t stop there though. It just so happens that this encounter took place between the height of KG’s feud with Carmelo Anthony.
So on top of being dunked on and insulated, he had to watch as his rival got one over him by paying off the fine Shumpert got for the technical.

Safe to say things were heated between the two since then, and it is unlikely to change.
