After last evening's game where the Chicago Bulls stunned the Celtics by 1 point, Bulls front court player Joakim Noah spoke of Kevin Garnett crossing the line.

Past


"[I was] just playing defense," Noah said. "Just playing sound defense, just contesting his shots. He's a helluva competitor. He's always on some bullshit. Always on some bullshit...Just trying to throw elbows....Cheap shots. Just trying to get you off your game. But he's a vet. He's been doing this a long time, but it's all right....He's a dirty player, man," Noah said then. "He's a dirty player. That's messed up, man ... I'm hurting right now because of an elbow he threw. It's unbelievable. He's a dirty player. It's one thing to be competitive and compete and all that, but don't be a dirty player. He's a dirty player."

When asked if he thought Garnett crosses the line when he plays, Noah replied no, before adding, "When we lose, I feel like he crosses the line. But since we've been beating their (butts), I'm cool with it."
