Brooklyn Nets GM Billy King welcomes critics who question whether Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce are done being elite players at the ages of 37 and 35, respectively.
King believes Garnett and Pierce will prove those critics wrong.
When asked how much he still has left in the tank, Garnett responded, “Next question.”
Both Garnett and Pierce were less than pleased when reporters asked them about their age at Thursday’s news conference. “I’m 35. There are 50-year-olds and 60-year-olds in the house,” Pierce said.
Don’t look for KG to look to take over as the main leader on the team. Granted, that might change.
Garnett said this is Deron Williams, Brook Lopez and Joe Johnson’s team.
