Garnett is DONE!

[brandnew21]

lol i hope this vid makes every celtic hater on this board feel a bit better about next year. not that it changes anything, i mean they're still stackedand that video could have been cropped from one specific part of practice where he happened to stiff up. But if it makes you feel a little less nervous, then ithink the guy who edited the video did his job. lol people love to talk !#*+ when they don't know !#*+. u see a minute long clip of a dude with a stiffknee and u get all excited. i mean u gotta figure, if dude was limping like that all practice he would have been pulled... but u see a min long clip at the endof his first week of practice back from an injury where dudes knee stiffs up and all the sudden y'all stiff up. calm down. but for the record that neckpatch or whatever is terrible.

Pretty much.

I don't know... The footage didn't look THAT bad to ME.

Womp womp.

 

[ezflash26]

^^he's nowhere near done? Really? Dude is going on his 15th year fam (and has played x amount of minutes). Regardless of an injury, he'd be close todone (as an elite player) anyway.

Dude was putting up 15 & 8 before the injury. I think Boston is praying he can just get back to that level....

Athletes gotta let themselves heal. What good are you limping and putting yourself at risk for re-injury.

Why does dude have the deer-in-headlights look

Sweet, only 100 or so games to go full of stopping and starting for the multiples of old guys they have on that "stacked" squad.

That empty banner gonna stay empty a loooooooong time out there.

no way he is done...

give him some time

 

[banks2pierce]

He's got 7 months to get into shape. I'm told a lot of the time it is just the brain that is showing the nerves and that everything is structurally ok.And as someone else said, if he looked like that from the beginning of camp, there is no way that he would be allowed to stay out there. Ainge/Doc aren'tstupid.

 

[jthagreat]

tHAT sucks to watch. i hope he is able to recover.

 

[23mcpizzle23]

If this was any other team i would be sympathetic to this but the fact that its KG and the Cs makes it

im sorry...

 

[kn0wledgeable]

he's out of shape. he needs to strengthen that knee he had surgery on. he will be fine. c's cant outplay him though

 

[laker4lifeman]

ehh he better be ready for the playoffs I don't want to hear any excuses.

 

[beallsfinest]

That is a horrible limp. I've had knee surgery and problems. That clip is pretty bad. I really hope he gets better because he is a great player, but faceit, dude is old. He will never be the same player again-- even if he never got hurt, he was beginning to slide anyways-- and the only way this team wins atitle is if he is playing at the 07-08 level.


I am really nervous this could be a CWebb thing just like a lot of other people are speculating.

I dont mind the Celtics but I *@*$%$ HATE KG. By far the most hate I've ever felt towards an NBA player. Dude is a scum bag...his never-ending profanity,his inability to take over games when they're on the line, picking fights with players smaller/not as good as him, etc.

I cant believe back in 03 and 04 dudes on NT were saying that KG was better than Duncan. Never has and never will have the resume that Timmy had.

Oh yeah, if KG misses a prolonged period of time the Celtics will be fine with Rasheed in the line-up provided that Ray Ray and Pierce are healthy and canstill perform at high levels (which they are still more than capable of doing). I'm thinking though that if KG misses some time and something else goeswrong for the Celtics, the Raptors may make the Atlantic Division a 2 horse race.

This is sad.

This is one of the most pompous, arrogant statements I've ever read. No wonder everyone hates Lakers fans.
