The Facts of Life
featuring Kevin Garnett
Docfunk (@docfunk) shows us why Kevin Garnett’s new shoe deal with Chinese shoe company, Anta (who?), is great for everyone. The hilarity continues over at the funk’s place.
Now I just need to learn how to curse in Chinese.
Kevin Garnett is a man of character and class. In the off season, while the boys in Miami are poppin’ bottles, Kevin is indulging him self with courtside seats to a gentleman’s game; Tennis.

Frozen moment:
Maybe it wasn’t exactly “all ball,” but when Pau Gasol finally blocked KG’s drive to the hoop on the left block with three minutes left in the third quarter, it may have been the turning point of the game. It was Boston’s most reliable offensive play, and after the block, Garnett and his teammates seemed unwilling to go back to it. The Celtics stayed ahead for a while longer, but their only reliable offense came from transition the rest of the way.
On the ensuing Los Angeles possession, Rasheed Wallace picked up his fourth foul and missed the next five minutes. If Garnett finishes, or if the refs call the foul there, we may have a different champion right now.
Kevin Garnett doesn’t have the hops to win a jump ball against Derek Fisher, yet he still pulled down ten rebounds on Sunday night. It might be a positioning thing, it might be a desire thing, it might be an Andrew-Bynum’s-swollen-knee thing. Regardless, if KG racks up double-digit boards tonight, the Celtics are going home with the trophy.
In Case You Missed It: KG’s clutch 20-footer buzzer-beater (this time it counts) in OT against the Knicks. I know right? I’m just as surprised as you are the Knicks took the Celtics to OT and lost only by two points.

Danny Ainge on Kevin Garnett’s recovery
I hope Lamar tweets about how upset he is when Adam Morrison steals his sixth man position on the Lakers cause Morrison in between epic bong rips (with a Pantera soundtrack!) is in the gym working his ass off right now. Kevin Garnett probably turned his basement into some bizzaro, creepy Clubber Lang esque gym and is going insane right now.
