KG Returns to Minny (kind of)

The Celtics are in town tonight and while KG won't be in the lineup he will make a cameo appearance. I was kind of bummed that KG wasn't still a Woofie until I read this Souhan article in today's paper. While Souhan is basically doing a 180 on a team he has criticized all season and an ownership and management that he has crushed for years, his article quoted the following exchange between KG and Al Jefferson during the Woofies 1 point loss in Boston a few weeks ago:

Garnett yelled "Eleven years! Eleven years!" at Jefferson, reminding him of his All-Star berths. Jefferson responded with the kind of surgical strike we expect of smart bombs and heckled comedians: "We both have one thing in common -- no championships."

Good for Al.

Let's hope KG gets a nice ovation. Absolutely no reason to be bitter at him...dude played hard. I think he's a bit overrated as a guy who can carry a team, but hey, at least we got to the Western finals one year.
