Former Minnesota Timberwolf Kevin Garnett is showing Boston Celtics fans just how underrated he was when he was in Minnesota, leading the Beantown team to an easy win in playoff-opening action against the Atlanta Hawks.
Garnett and the Celtics have the best record in the NBA and home-court advantage through the Eastern Conference finals. Their 104-81 win over Atlanta - in a game that didn’t even look that close - seems to indicate a four-game series and easy advancement to the second round; Garnett only made it past the first round once with the Timberwolves, when he led the team to the Western Conference finals before falling to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Look for Garnett to get at least that far with Boston this season; seems Garnett will make frequent use of the Dymo labels to add to his award shelf this season. And here at MinnesotaSportsScene, we’re happy for him. No one worked longer or harder to finally be rewarded with post-season bliss.
