The Paris Olympics witnessed lots of changes including the introduction of breakdancing which made its Olympic debut at the Games, but not everyone was impressed. NBA legends Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce on a recent episode of the podcast show KG Certified shared their candid thoughts on the new addition.

The two basketball greats aren’t alone in their criticism, as breakdancing’s inclusion in the Olympics has sparked a heated debate. Many memes were created and abuse was directed at Australian breaker, Rachael Gunn (aka Raygun), who stunned viewers with her moves and style.

Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett were mostly upset because the competition wasn’t original. They felt it lacked certain elements to make it connect with the viewers. Furthermore, fans would be surprised to learn about the other side of the legendary KG, which is different from his basketball side. 

The backlash from fans against breakdancing’s Olympic inclusion was swift and severe. Garnett and Pierce’s comments are just the latest in a long line of criticisms. As such, it seems that the IOC has taken notice as it was revealed that it will not feature at the 2028 Games in Los Angeles.
