Most players in Sam Mitchell's position probably would've took the extra minutes no questions asked. Sam recognizing what they have in Garnett so early and saying, "he's better than me. He should start" is amazing to me. We always focus on the finished product but never really delve into the small moments that could change a career. This Prism series is really a great look into the small chapters that make up the book. Great video.

I saw Garnett play his rookie year, coming off the bench. He didn’t do much, but he went up for a rebound and got up so high he basically snatched it off of the top of the backboard. From ten rows back at the Arco Arena watching a rare (at the time) Sacramento Kings win, it was very impressive and I knew he was going to be a superstar.

@MPHswayze2 жыл бұрын
He's underrated culturally. KG had the "Mamba Mentality" without being a bad teammate or a diva, KG would raise his arm when he messed up a play or committed a bad foul to be an example to the team. KG was cool too. The blue KG Wolves jersey from the 90s with the spiky things is iconic. Garnett never slacked on defense, he became one of the most dreaded bigs ever protecting the rim. KG has the Relentless Gene on both sides of the ball like Moses Malone, Havlicek, Bob Lanier, Dave Cowens in that those guys never stopped trying their hardest at any second of a basketball game. No plays off. KG went 100% no matter what on both sides of the court.
@lastsinnersa80022 жыл бұрын
It's always intriguing to think about how different drafts would be in hindsight. But another factor is whether a player's career would have been ruined if they went to a hapless team or one too stacked that never let them develop/thrive. The real miracle is that the Timberwolves didn't ruin him. Failing to build enough around him is as expected.

I quickly became a Celtics fan during the Garnett/Allen/Pierce Era. Garnett became my favorite player of all time, and still is to this day. About a year ago I went looking for my first Celtics jersey purchase, hoping to find Garnett. Very jealous of T-Wolves fans because his Celts jersey isn't available in most stores. Ended up settling for a Bird jersey. Certainly not upset about it. 😅

Ed O'Bannon was a winning, seasoned, excellent college player with a track record. The way most teams thought of the draft was "who can come in and help the team." Coaches and GMs were always on the hotseat in that respect. The idea of using a high draft pick on a high schooler who wouldn't help your team for years sounded ludicrous to people.

He was rather soft spoken, and Kevin McHale jumped in and gave a few answers to questions when Garnett would pause. And that was fine. But Garnett seemed like a nice teenage kid who all of a sudden had the sports world spotlights turned on him. I'm glad he went on to have such a fine career.

He was a decent outside shooter just inside the 3 pt line, quick passing decisions, good face-up game, some nascent handles. I continue to 'what-if' about him being drafted in 2006 or 2016 so he could have played more of a role that AD plays as a pre-eminent roll man and stretch-4/5, or as a hub off of high pick-n-rolls that can also iso in the paint. Orrrr goodness, KG as a point-forward with a traditional big screening for him or inverted PNR where he is raining off-the-dribble triples, attack switches, spraying to shooters, finishing at the rim with his size speed and power. Couple that with his motor and Draymond Green level of defensive acumen and there was the makings of a top-5 all-time, possibly top-3. Hell, if the NBA only knew to push him out beyond the 3 pt line instead of having him take barfy long 2s that he could shoot well that alone could have been enough to elevate him above the underrated status he has in the basketball world. The KG greatest Peaks from Thinking Basketball shows just how impressive he was when he played, but this video opened the door for an even greater potential. Ahead of his time he was.
