Celtics Kevin Garnett and James Posey were attacked by Chicago's Bennie the Bull during the Celts' win in Chicago last night, when the mascot's ingratiating capering included firing t-shirts from an air cannon at the stars. Well, at the star and Posey.
The incident happened when Garnett and Posey were walking to the bench during a timeout with 2:49 remaining. Garnett and Posey gave Bennie the Bull a glare, and, said Garnett, "We exchanged words." Garnett was sent back to the bench by the referees after trying to explain what happened.
"I felt threatened," said Posey…"Two T-shirts were thrown at me and KG. I don't feel safe. The T-shirts were fired out of that gun or whatever. I feel a little sore in one spot. I might have to get treatment… Let's see how the league handles this."
I, too, would like to see the league handle this responsibly. I recommend that Bennie be punished with an official eye-roll coupled with a stern wanking motion.

We're imitating the French military's approach to discipline now? If they do it your way, the NBA will be over run by the Nazis by year's end.
Here's to you Mr. T-Shirt Fring Cannon Iventor!
*firing
I feel a little sore in one spot.
I'm guessing that'd be his G-spot.
Has KG become a little unlikeable this year or is it just me? I've always liked him since coming outta Farragut with Ronnie Fields, and his entire NBA career has been phenominal, but this year, has winning gone to his head? He seems to be acting like a real James Posey this season.
Oh by the way, fuck James Posey. I would like to personally kick him in the mouth with a pair of Gators on.
"I felt threatened," said Posey…"Two T-shirts were thrown at me and KG. I don't feel safe…"
My eyes just rolled so far back in my head that my retinas might have detached.
Let's see how the league handles this."
The same way they handle all of the NBA's bullshit….Uh….By doing NOTHING!!
'In many ways, James Posey was a supporting player
in our lives. He didn't grab our attention with
memorable catchphrases, or comical accents.'
Later, it would revealed that Bennie was Bull was hired for the hit by Mr. Met, leader of the Gambino crime family. Bennie the Bull has since turned state's evidence.
Ned Flanders thinks this t-shirt cannon episode is no laughing matter.

@UU: Is it true that they wrote out Maude Flanders because the woman who did her voice was a insufferable bitch? If you're a true Simpsons geek, maybe you can verify or dispute this rumor.
@HHY, I have no idea. Maybe I'm not as big of a geek as I think I am.
This is a joke, right? If I click on the link, does it take me to a Rick Astley video?
@HHY
I've heard that before. Could have been from you though so I don't know if that qualifies as spell-checking or not.
Garnett and Posey were in the wrong place at the wrong time. That t-shirt "bullet" was meant for Larry Hughes.
Nothing gives you street cred like getting shot while ballin'.
Surely this is just a Leap Year/April Fool's mixup, right?
Yeah, the lady who did her voice quit a few years before that episode, so they just wrote her out to make things easier…
great, now all we need is for Oliver Stone to make a movie about the phantom T-shirt shooter.
on a related note, first Thunderbug and now this? Is there somekind of mascot rising going on?
That's what happens when you exchange words with the mascot. We get it, KG…you're a bad ass now that you've been traded to a team that gives a damn. You've always been known as the biggest shit talker in the NBA…now, it's just overly excessive and you've spread that persona to the rest of the Celtic scrubs.
A quick search reveals Posey and KG have bought the rights to the cantheleaguemendmybrokenvag.com domain.
For a dude named after a flower, Posey still sounds like a total pussy. Still, Benny the Bull should probably go fuck himself, just to be safe.
In an effort to expand the NBA's international appeal, David Stern will send Bennie to Pamplona.
