The hilarious scene unfolded during Garnett's podcast episode "KG Certified," where he shared his enthusiasm for Diaz's entrance tune, "Narco," with his former Boston Celtics teammate Paul Pierce. Garnett couldn't contain his excitement as he reminisced about the tune, even going as far as playfully mimicking playing the trumpet for Pierce.
The sheer joy exuded by Garnett was captured in a video that LeBron James later shared on his Instagram story. While sharing the video through his Instagram story, the Lakers star couldn't get enough of Garnett imitating xyz as he captioned his story, " TICKET IS HILARIOUS!!! But dead a** serious too!!”
Despite their competitive history on the court, it looks like LeBron James and Kevin Garnett share a mutual appreciation for Diaz's entrance theme. Expressing his own amusement, LeBron dubbed Garnett's reaction as "hilarious," indicating that even though the situation brought laughter, there was also a deep sense of sincerity behind the humor.

LeBron James have a decade-long feud with Kevin Garnett
The feud between LeBron James and Kevin Garnett has been a long-standing spectacle, with its roots tracing back to their intense on-court matchups. LeBron clashed with Garnett, who made his NBA debut in 1995 and later secured a championship with the Boston Celtics.
The tension reached a boiling point in 2008 during a game between LeBron's Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics. However, the face-off suddenly changed into a brawl as LeBron's mother, Gloria, rushed to the court to defend her son during a heated altercation.
However, throughout the years, Garnett continued to take shots at LeBron, even suggesting in a 2019 interview that he and the Celtics "broke" LeBron and forced his trade to the Miami Heat, stating that they didn't fear him and didn't think he could beat them all.
Despite a momentary truce, the feud between LeBron and Garnett took a dramatic turn when Kevin, alongside his former teammate Paul Pierce, made a stunning allegation about LeBron during an episode of his KG Certified podcast. Kevin alleged that LeBron James was using steroids to maintain his athleticism.
While insinuating that it was a generational trait as he referenced LeBron's father, Garnett said, “You seen his dad? his dad on that Balco. He on that new juice.”
This unexpected claim drew attention, especially as LeBron has never been cited for using performance-enhancing drugs, and notably, LeBron chose not to directly respond to the accusations made on the podcast, leaving the situation as it stands.
