Watch: Kevin Garnett Tries To Bite Joakim Noah

(CBS) Bulls big man Joakim Noah and Nets counterpart Kevin Garnett have shared many hard-fought and sometimes contentious experiences on the court over the years, dating back to the latter's time with the Cletics.

On Sunday, they shared another odd moment.

In the second half of Chicago's 102-84 win at Brooklyn, Garnett attempted (pretended?) to bite Noah's hand. His chomp didn't draw flesh, and both players took it in stride afterward, with Garnett saying, "I was messing around."

But it was still pretty wild.

"Kevin Garnett tried to bite me," Noah told the Tribune's K.C. Johnson. "That's crazy man. It's unbelievable. I don't even know what to say.

"If somebody tries to bite you, I think it's a little bit more than trying to get in your head. It's pretty amazing."

You can watch the video of the sequence above.
