Kevin Garnett Has A Message For LeBron Fans: “For All You LeBron Lovers Who Don’t Know Sh*t”

LeBron James’ name may always come up with winning, but it was a little different back before he joined the Miami Heat. During his first tenure in Cleveland, his biggest foil was none other than the Boston Celtics which featured the big 3 of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.

James faced the ruthless Celtics team in the 2008 and 2010 Eastern Conference Semifinals where he was sent home in seven and six games respectively. After the 2010 loss, LeBron took an exit and teamed up with Dwyane Wade in South Beach, and the rest was history. 

Now, on the ‘Load Management’ podcast, Kevin Garnett shed a light on their past matchups with LeBron James, elaborating how they broke the now-Lakers superstar back when he was still with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

“For all you LeBron lovers who don’t know sh*t. Who was actually four or even two years old when I was talking about this and this was going on for probably what? 10? Like what, 12, 13 now? And ‘oh, you didn’t do anything.’ I get it. You’re defending. You love LeBron.

“When we formed in Boston, and you can never get past that. That’s why I say, we took the jersey off in 2010, he buried that jersey under the TD Bank Arena. That 23 Bron jersey was buried under the garden.”
