07:55 AM ET 04.02 | Even the mascots are getting tough. Last night, in the process of the Celtics completing a series sweep of the Bulls for the first time since 1986-87, Kevin Garnett and James Posey engaged in some late-game trash talking with Benny the Bull. "Bulls can talk," said Garnett, who initially was upset after he and Posey were hit in the back by clothing fired from a T-shirt launcher during a timeout in the closing minutes of the C's 106-92 victory. "Walking off the floor we got hit by some shirts." Garnett initially had to be restrained by a member of the officiating crew as Benny stood a safe distance away. "I turned around, saw the guy in the bull hat, and we had some words," Garnett said.

He's just joking. Still if one of the mascots fired one of those shirt cannons at me I'd be pretty pissed. I always did want to see what happened if you hit the guy in the first row with one of those.

I think after that whole Minnesota Boston trade, Garnett has been a lot more aggressive and if he has something to say it he will. Which was different in Minnesota where he played on a losing team and saw mistakes happen left and right.

If the Celts send in that leprechaun from the movies it would be safe to say that Benny the Bull is gonna be breakfast hash..

i think KG is becoming a bigger loser than he was before. from calling out al jefferson and getting mad and saying jefferson disrespected him when he said " we still have the same amount of titles" to now arguing with a mascot.
get over yourself get in the playoffs and get knocked out like you have done your whole career. what a scrub he is turning into. good thing he has two HOF players to finally get HIM out of the 1st round.
keeping it ghetto…

Kevin is in a real disadvantage... A mascott is literaly a Wolf hiding in a sheep's ...Ooopppss, I mean Bulls clothing.
That Mascott can say obsceneties under that cover and what's happening to Kevin is what exactly will when you deal with such character.
Woul d the league fine a Mascott? Come on....

k\KG you are better than that, just file a complaint with the league. DO NOT fight a mascot, yu can't win. If you beat it up, you look like a fool and if you loose, you look like a fool who got his butt kicked by a stuffed animal.

KG should handle these things better. Confronting a mascot won't get you anywhere except for the front page on fannation.

I wonder if it's the same Benny who was busted for pot possession last year.
He should break out his dime-bag launcher as an "olive branch" to the NBA players.
