    It's surreal when you realize that most of those guys on the team now probably weren't even born OR were small children when K.G. got drafted by the Timberwolves...

      Me and Andrew Wiggins are both the same age (20) Kevin Garnett was drafted June 28,1995 at age 19, Andrew Wiggins was born February 23, 1995. It's crazy when you think about it he was only 5 months when Garnett was drafted and now there teammates.

      @ernestomorales8160 Před 9 lety +19

      I disagree. I think they would get out of the first round, finally, maybe reach the WCF had Marbury elevated his career. But I still don't think they would have beaten the Lakers, Blazers or even the Kings in the early 2000s. Those three teams were loaded back then.

      @lamariustangible6179 Před 9 lety +6

      I agree on this one, Marbury could have been one of the best PGs in the NBA during that time. Building around the two key players would have made it easy for the Timberwolves to make a run at the championship.

Killin part is he didn't even go to college, nobody taught to want to be gr8 & a pro, he just went out & did it, AND he NEVER HALF-ASSED on the court. He is 1 of the last few of the old school big men/players. #Passion #Heart #WarriorAttitude The man was worth watching.That's #KG
