Kevin Garnett was a monster. Those Timberwolves rosters were often horrible. Garnett was such a defensive savant & his midrange jump shot was viciously deadly. The PFs in the 2000s were amazing & they almost all played in the West. Tim Duncan, Chris Webber, Dirk, KG, Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Rasheed Wallace, Pau Gasol, Amar'e Stoudamire, & Shawn Marion were all great versatile players. Man those were there days.

Reading your comment just nade me realize something. The nba has had an interesting descending history. First the league was dominated by centers for about majority of its existence, then as you mentioned, the PFs started taking over around the 2000s, then at some point I think the SF briefly took over before SGs and PGs exploded in the 2010s, and now I feel like bigs are trying to take that spot again with Giannis and jokic winning the finals, Joel becoming an mvp, and the young prospects in players like wenbenyama, chet holmgren, Anthony Davis (when HEALTHY) is absolutely dominant, kristaps (also WHEN HEALTHY) makes Hella noise too, Ben Simmons before he completely fell out. I feel like the age of big men are coming back and I love it lol

Best peak ever is 2003 Tim Duncan: all nba, all defense, MVP, finals mvp, went 60-22 regular season and DESTROYED( none of these series were close) the Dirk mavs, Kobe-Shaq lakers, and Jason kidd nets, while averaging like 27pts/15rebs/5ast/3blk in the post season. Man went crazy that year in the post season.

KG is my favorite player all time. Even as a kid born and raised in Cleveland, my favorite player wasn't Bron (a very close #2 though). His ability to just do everything on the court offensively, while arguably being a top 5 defender all time still leaves me in awe. He's locking down the 4 in my personal "one game to save the planet" type starting lineup. I see a lot of shades of his game in Evan Mobley, hoping he can ball out and take the spot as my favorite all time

I find it really interesting that you can say something similar about his teammate, Ray Allen. I’d bet a lot of people’s first thought of Ray is him on the Celtics/Heat where he had a lesser role on championship teams. Not to say Ray’s peak was on the same level as KG’s, but I think a lot of newer fans see them both for what they were on those teams.

I feel like the main reason why KG's peak is often glossed over is the fact that the Timberwolves front office pretty much screwed any attempts of of having a contender team surrounding KG. They were caught in a drafting scandal that pretty much limited the caliber of players they can sign during KG's entire tenure and pretty much his prime with Minnesota. If KG was surrounded by actual good players, he might have won a championship with rhat team.

@@isaiahwilliams2332 from what I remember it wasn’t a drafting scandal, it was a contract scandal. I forget who, but they signed him as a free agent to a small deal, when he was expected to get a much larger deal. That contract came with the under the table promise that they’d give him a large contract the year after. I believe the wolves signed him to another 1 year deal for 2 mil or something the year after, and the NBA investigated, found out about the under the table deal, and took a bunch of picks from the Wolves.

Genuinely one of those guys where u can legit question how much he couldve/wouldve achieved had he had the same level of support as his compatriots all those years.

Talent wise Kg is the best PF of all time. Fact is that He was relying on the jumper way too much and was not using left hand,spins in the post almost at all. Wolves back then had a slow paced spirit when it comes to the half court offense and you could fell asleep watching them like that. Garnett had a great game vs Lakers in his last season in Minneapolis and in this game he played like he supposed to but other than that,his talent was not used properly,by him,coaches,the organization-you name it.

The reason why Kareem doesn’t stand out as much to him is because he argues that the era Kareem dominated wasn’t very good (in general the 70’s is not looked back at very fondly admittedly). He also argues that the MVP Kareem won where he missed the playoffs shouldn’t have gone to him. Not to put words in his mouth, but I’m pretty sure he’d say those two things.
@HorizonOfHope
@HorizonOfHope Год назад
@@fortynights1513 I've heard both of those views before, and I think they're both a bit short-sighted. Kareem was still *the* dominant force in the league after the ABA merger, so it's not like he didn't prove he was excellent at the time. There's also the fact that you can't simply say an era was weak, as it's kind of a self-defeating argument. If it's so easy to be that dominant, then how come no one else was able to to do it? Kareem was the absolute #1 in his College days, which is about as even as you can get in terms of competitive balance, and was still elite in the mid-80s. The idea that MVPs shouldn't go to players who miss the playoffs is a flaw with the award even today, not something that should be held against him. For instance: is anyone *really* gonna argue that Garnett was only at an MVP level the years the Timberwolves were high in the standings? The point of this exact video is that he was elite most of his career.

KG was in Boston for 5 years. He played 14 seasons. Thinking of him as a Celtic is pretty weird in my eyes. KG was a machine in MN in the early 2000s. Fans need to stop this ignorant thinking that the NBA started when a specific fan started watching it. Or not factoring in rules, pace, possessions, defense, and average ppg when comparing eras. This idea that 50-75 threes being jacked up in today's game is somehow peak basketball is flat out ignorant. When are fans going to figure out that it's much easier to score now vs 10-20-30 yrs ago? Shooting 1-2 threes a game vs shooting 8-10, pace of play and spacing, rule changes, and no defense. Go look at the average ppg of teams in the 2000s vs now. Look at pace and possessions in the 2000s vs now. When you factor in the differences in how the game is played you should, as an example, easily see Lebron averaging 30 ppg in 2022 is the same as Jordan averaging 20 ppg in 2003. They were both scoring 25% of their team points in those seasons. But the average fan seems incapable of understanding basketball these days.

I think KG’s seasons In Minnesota get overlooked because of his lack of overall success there. He was in a ridiculous western conference and he often got overshadowed by the players and teams that were winning all the time ( lakers, spurs). People forget that he was runner up in MVP voting to both Shaq and Duncan and was even a DPOY runner up all before his own MVP season. Winning is what gets noticed the most and unfortunately that doesn’t always speak to the talent of an individual player or how good they really are. It takes a real to win.

True NBA fans know that the only major difference between KG & TD is that TD got drafted into a competent organization.

He cared about winning every game and that is what made me a fan since The TV wolves were so bad an KG got screwed out of some prime years with the tampering . I am from Wisconsin so The Bucks are my team and so to later on have Ray Allen and KG on the same team was I started watching Basketball more then Football. KG was the first "big man" that could and would do things a SG would do that I remember , I am sure there were others but yeah.

The debate of Dirk vs KG for me is one of the most confusing debate im basketball: KG: better two way player, clearly better defender, been the best player in the world, and have terrible team in his peak, slightly better head to head stats, leadong the USA to 2000 olympic gold, have MVP caliber season in 2003 and have MVP stats 2005, robbed finals MVP, bad and choke specialist coaches but while, Dirk: destroyed KG in the 2002 playoff, has better head to head record, most valuable championship ever, while KG has the most overated chanpionship, playoff MVP, better in advanced analytic stats, better offensive player, top 8 scorer, have peak that he could should have won 3 straight MVP (over Nash and Shaq in 2005 and over Kobe, Lebron and Nash in 2006) and international success as the best player in 2002 fiba world cup, also not have elite chanpionship contender supporting cast, only play with 2 all star during his prime, while lead Dallas to almost 10 50+ seasons and 2 finals.
