Then there was the classy moment late when Garnett dunked on Turner, then hung on the rim for several seconds, his crotch in Turner's face.
Old guys get away with murder.
Garnett isn't really 71. He actually turns 36 on Saturday. Monday night, he played like a septuagenarian: just 15 points in 34 minutes.
Garnett scored a total of 57 points in the Celtics' first-round finale and Game 1 on Saturday, his highest two-game output as a Celtic. Garnett entered Monday's game averaging 37.9 minutes per game this postseason, the most in 3 years.
Against Allen, injured Elton Brand and willowy Spencer Hawes, Garnett disappeared for most of the game. His 15 points included a meaningless, last-second three-pointer. Besides that shot, he was 6-for-11, 4-for-9 after the first 2:48.
"We tried to get a little closer to KG on those jumpers," Brand said.
"Tried to push him off the block," Allen said.
"Put some strength on him," Collins said.
And they hid his walker.
After Game 6 against the Hawks, Garnett seethed at the assertion that he's getting old - a silly reason to seethe.
Only one active player has played more minutes or games than Garnett, and that's Jason Kidd. Monday night, like Magee, Kidd was somewhere napping.
Garnett got mad when he was called old.
He got downright livid when, with 10 seconds left, he was called for his second moving screen of the quarter, his third of the game.
Correction: He was whistled for the foul.
He actually set about a dozen or so moving screens during the game, which put him at about 10,000 for his Celtics career, about 10 percent of them perpetrated against the Sixers. Almost none of them is called, perhaps in deference to his senior status.
"It's worth every [uncalled] one," said Turner, who bore the brunt of Garnett's bony backside. "I'm surprised they called it."
So was Garnett. He was mad enough to beat them with his cane.
Garnett needed a nap. Well, he's coming to town.
Maybe he can visit ol' Herb Magee.
