So why is KG on the Wolves payroll? Does he do anything to help the organization? As I recall, I don’t think he even attended any of the Wolves playoff games last season. KG was a great player and remains the 2nd best player in Wolves history. But I’ve alway viewed him as a dick and a bit of a clown. He is probably the least interesting commentator among all the former NBA players. Actually, watching him is downright embarrassing much of the time.

I am so confused. Do explain how Garnett is the 2nd best player in Wolves history. Ya know.... the guy who won an mvp and a defensive player of the year. An ACTUAL hall of famer.

Results matter. KG is the best player to ever play for the Wolves, but he's a hall of famer for the success he had in Boston. It took Ant 5 seasons to pass KG's 14 season Wolves legacy of playoff wins. Took 5 years to pass him in playoff points as well. It should only take 10 years for Ant to pass KG's 14 years for all time Wolves points.

And where do the two stack up in rebounds…blocks….assists…triple doubles….calling KGs wolves career meaningless towards his Hall of fame career is criminally stupid.

Following this logic, no wolves players are great because non have achieved the result of championship and therefor all the time we have collectively spent watching them has been a waste and is not worth remembering.

What? I said KG was the best player to ever play for the Wolves period. Clearly everything he did on the wolves was important to his legacy. Boston is where he solidified his hall of fame. Playoff success is everything in this league. It's why Lebron is still chasing the ghost of Jordan, despite having the regular season stats. As long as Ant plays here 10 years he should have every Timberwolves playoff record and every regular season record except rebounds, blocks, double/doubles triple/doubles, and free throw percentage Doesn't mean KG success here was meaningless, it was a lot of our youth watching years. If this Wolves team wins a championship in the next few years, it's not even a conversation who the best Wolf was. Not who the best player in the NBA was, but who the best Wolf was.

Ant has how many defensive first teams? How many MVPs? Don’t count chickens before they hatch. Kg is the goat till someone finishes him off. Ants in a good trajectory but could be traded before he’s half way to the rest of garnetts numbers. If it only matters what they do for their current team then Ant s has a ways to go in maybe a short amount of time if we don’t win it all before the extensions come a calling.

KG was making the hall regardless of what happened in Boston. Meaning.... had he stayed with the Wolves and not won a title.
