Linton Johnson: We're Beating Garnett

Денг Гордон · May 2, 2009

A photo from Game 5 that made the rounds appeared to show injured Celtics all-star Kevin Garnett screaming from the sideline in the ear of Bulls guard Ben Gordon.

At least 25 times per game, the cameras catch Garnett either cheering on his teammates, sticking his chin out or mouthing some R-rated language.

Bulls reserve forward Linton Johnson says Chicago fans shouldn't worry, because the No. 7 seed bench is holding its own in this series.

"Actually, we're leading. We're ahead in this thing," Johnson said Thursday. "It's just that KG is Kevin Garnett and they give him more airplay. But we're killing him on the other end. We had him so quiet when we were up 10 (in the fourth quarter of Game 5), he had to put his head down.

"He's Kevin Garnett, but if you look on the other end, we're giving it to guys. We're winning this battle of the bench, I'm telling you."

Johnson gave a rundown of his bench lineup. The Bulls do have a couple of loud guards in Lindsey Hunter and Anthony Roberson, while 7-foot center Aaron Gray brings intimidation potential.

"Lindsey, like the Vanguard. So we follow Lindsey," Johnson said. "We've got the muscle with Aaron. We've got a heck of a bench. If they ever turn that camera down on our end, they've got something really good. KG's by himself, but we've got the whole clan down there."

Do the Bulls' reserves ever hear what Garnett is yelling?

"We can read his lips," Johnson said. "With him, it's easy. He only says about five words."

Kevin Garnett's going to get laughed out of the league if he keeps up his antics. Ouch, getting pwned by Linton Johnson.
