Should the Celtics retire Garnett's jersey?

The Cs can go in the bushes if they retired KG.

Hey man, fukking Memphis retired both ZBo and Tony Allen’s numbers so I can’t say these things surprise me anymore.

Celtics need to chill though. They have the most retired numbers in the league. They gonna be having a bunch of nikkas rocking #53 and #78 in 2040

For some reason when I think KG I think Twolves great before I think Celtic great

When he came to the Celtics he hid behind Paul Pierce on offense and never dominated on that end of the floor again. As a matter of fact that's when he started to be known for his defense.

of course.
6 great seasons, an NBA Title, ECF appearances, resurrected one of the goat franchises in sports..

what are they gonna retire his number in Minny for? what they gonna celebrate? a bunch of 1st round exits to the Spurs and Lakers

Minnesota is not a basketball city, they dont even care.

My bad was thinking of this

U good breh

 

[steph_harden]

KG is a TWolf....


Those Celtics years were freelance years...

shyt must be beyond toxic for something like this to even be spoken. 12yrs as a Twolf...their greatest player in franchise history and it’s not even close. Yet he’s out here talking about he’s a “Celtic”

Timberwolves dropped the ball something serious on this one.

Till this day he’s the best player that franchise has ever had. Which isn’t saying much because they are are 23 year old expansion team but still, my point stands. He came into the league with the team and made them relevant. They haven’t made the playoffs since 2004, which is also the year he won MVP. That’s 14 years ago, I was in the fukking 4th grade

That’s like saying Vince Carter’s number should be retired in Toronto.

KG, AI, and VC were their respective team’s identity back in the day. They deserve some recognition.

They earned that shyt

KG number needs to hang up in Minnesota though

 

[kickz]

He is and will always be a Twolf, we drafted him and he retired with us.

That said I don't mind Celtics also retiring him after we do.

 

[Smashius Clay]

Hell yeah. KG is a Legend in Boston. His year in Boston’s n will be remembered more than his years in Minnesota just like Ray Allen time in Boston(Ray Number shouldn’t be retired tho). They didn’t have the great numbers as earlier in their careers but they had ALOT of memorable moments.

I agree with everything in this post.

 

[Smokin Rider]

Retiring jerseys is dumb in general. It won't be in our lifetime but eventually they'll have to let that shyt go before they run outta numbers

 

[NatiboyB]

Nah with a franchise like Boston he wasn’t there long enough.
