KG was asked about Joe Johnson who is normally a more subdue player coming out publicly and saying the Nets are playing selfishly and here is what KG had to say.
Kevin Garnett was asked about Joe typically being quiet and just what kind of leader he is behind the scenes. KG-ism coming in next tweet.

KG said you don't last long in "this league by just whispering or being a nice guy or a guy the ladies like. You’ve got to be an asshole."

Besides the obvious point, I think what KG is saying in regard to the ladies is “Nice Guys” finish last or he could mean that if you are more focused on women than your game, you won’t last long.
Either way awesome quote.
