If you didnt like Kevin Garnetts footwork you dont like basketball.

[superduper]

More like when you're 15 years old and desperately trying to pretend like you've ever seen that dude play.

Bro you just personally insulted Corp, And1, Manny, Spacejam2.

Unfortunately for you I watched prime KG and nothing I said was remotely wrong.

Fcuk outta here boy.

Kevin Garnett was never the best player in the world. He was never also never than Tim Duncan. Been a silly argument since early 2000s ISH. It's not numbers but playstyle and impact.

In '04 he was pretty clearly the BITW

Based on what?

[GOBB]

Garnett was the best player in the league for a 2 to 3 year stretch... yet he never really gets discussed that much in that context. And as a result, he's easily the most underrated all time great from the 2000s.

What years was this?

[FKAri]

Lol he doesnt ever know the rules

Exactly. A man who doesn't even know the rules of travelling and pivoting. But simply put, KG never had "great footwork". He was an athletic big with fantastic mobility rather than great mechanics.

*with an occasional travel which is the case with literally 100% of players attempting to score in traffic after picking up the dribble.

Glad you wrote that. Move on Lakers is some big traveling, twice.

[QUOTE=Kblaze8855]Not relative to Tim Duncan or some of the centers but KG was a tall forward who played some 3. Has to move a bit more to get where he

Why was KG always so shook with game on the line?

Dude's legs turned to jelly if any kind of game-winner had to be attempted.

[Kblaze8855]

Kg hit quite a few game winners and had several game winning defensive plays too. People just choose to ignore them.

Media chose to ignore them because most of his prime and greatest days were in Minnesota where he won nothing. A small market grouped with under-performing in the playoffs isn't going to get you a ton of attention. Game winners or not.

[Bigsmoke]

it was cool.

McHale and The Dream did set the bar super high tho

[GimmeThat]

you mean the guy who had a 99 rating both offensively and defensively in the 2008 finals?

a lesson per Kobe/Gasol: the guy doesn't keep the ball high for a big man

Did you start watching basketball after 03-04?

Because he's a perpetually uncomfortable racist southern country bumpkin f@ggot who projects the opposite, since the days when he got sonned hard and threatened with death in a very real way, by Kings at farragut, hours after bullying a mexican, before Farragut was majority mexican, like it is now. Dude never said a word or looked at a mexican for the rest of his days at Farragut, after that day.

His foot work was nice, but I have zero respect for him as a human being, he is racist against latinos and whites (got kicked out of Carolina public school system for lynching a white kid). Son is not from Chicago, he is a bamma.
