"Tim is a cool cat. Nothing fazes him," teammate Mario Elie said. "Kevin Garnett got in his face and Tim just smiled and walked away. Tim doesn't brag. He just goes out and does his job."
For the record, that game (Game 1) was on May 9, 1999, which just happened to be Mother's Day, 1999 -- leading to a pretty good supposition that if Garnett was ever going to wish Timmy a Happy Mother's Day, it was that day. (curiously, the T'Wolves were almost always out of the playoffs by Mother's Day in other years and when they were in at that juncture (2004), they were playing the Kings and not the Spurs).
That's the game it supposedly happened. Supposedly, when Duncan was shooting free throws, Garnett said, "Happy Mother's Day, mother fukker."
of all time?
garnett is not better den karl malone or barkley and its debatable as to whether hes better den dirk.
hes definitely top 5 of all time though.
breh offensively & defensively KG is easily better than all them except Duncan. Eventhough he doesn't have the offensive numbers that are comparable to Malone, Barkley, & Dirk, none of them and Duncan gots a Defensive Player of the Year like KG does so if we talking both sides of the game, KG is the second GOAT PF

I would take Barkley over KG, definitely not Malone though. He's damn near overrated at this point. More on an Ewing level than a Duncan level.
ehhh....Mailman over both imo.
Barkley was more naturally talented though. Just lazy as hell

so saying a surefire HoFer and to many the best PF ever is better than KG is now a diss ?@ anyone dissing KG. In his prime, KG was considered the best player in the NBA and was viewed as a revolutionary player at the 4-5 spot.
What the fukk is wrong with some of y'all?![]()
That's not how basketball works. Larry Bird couldn't guard his shadow and he's a better player than kg will ever hope to be. Same with Magic.
kg's bytch ass will never be a top 3 PF, regardless of the vocal minority who claim otherwise.
And on top of that, I'll take Dirk over kg to start a team any day of the week.

How is KG better then Malone & Chuck offensively?
