Kevin Garnett

  KG arrived in Harbin, China around 10pm EST last night. He was greeted by tons of fans, Anta representatives & local media. Garnett is travelling with some family members and Celtics strength & conditioning coach Bryan Doo. After heading back to his hotel for a bit, KG made his first official appearance at a [...]

Kevin Garnett left California this morning and is headed to China as we speak. The country and his fans are ready and waiting. Anta has been having contests and drawings all week for opportunities to meet KG, greet him at different cities in China and win signed Garnett memorabilia. Banners and signs have been hung-up [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. Earlier this summer, Kevin Garnett became the richest player in NBA history. Of course, we’re talking pure on-court earnings here. If we expand the conversation to outside [...]

We’ve spent a good portion of the summer trying to figure out where the Celtics stood salary-wise… and now we’re finding out some real specifics.  HoopsWorld has all the salary details… which ESPN Boston broke down nicely. SIGNED FOR 2012-13 WITH SALARY ESTIMATES (13) Guards: Rajon Rondo ($11 million), Avery Bradey ($1.6 million), Jason Terry [...]

While looking for more info on the upcoming Anta KGIII, I came across an alternate colorway of the KGII on EBay. Now I want to be clear that I have not purchased from this seller before, but these do look legit, and with EBay/PayPal you’re protected. These are the 2nd signature shoe for Kevin Garnett [...]

For much of the tournament this year, the top seeds have advanced rather easily.  There have been a few lower seeds that have won their respective matchup, and later this week the sweet 16 will be revealed and the next round will begin.  But first we need to round out the first round with the final two [...]

I was scrolling through my Weibo (Chinese Twitter) timeline before work, and I came across the first pic of Anta’s “KG III”. This appears to be an away version, based on the black/green colorway. I noticed they added “GARNETT” on the outsole, near the toe. Also, the bottom of the shoe looks much different from [...]

  KG is headed back to China next week. The Big Ticket has always had a huge following there, but since he signed with Chinese sneaker company Anta, his popularity has simply exploded. Anta is holding contests to give folks the opportunity to meet and greet KG, win autographed items, sneakers etc. Fans are being [...]

In the previous matchup we saw KG’s debut in the tournament.  Today’s matchup features a much louder play from KG, perhaps ranking number one on the jump-out-of-your-seat-and-scream-YEEEAAAHHHHHH play list.  KG played several monster games for the Celtics this season, but not many singlular plays were quite this loud, especially coming against the Heat, in Miami, in a [...]

So far we’ve seen magical passes from Rondo, posterizations by Avery Bradley and Brandon Bass, and Paul Pierce taking command against ATL in the playoffs all advance to the next round of the tournament.  We have yet to hear from Kevin Garnett, but the next two matchups will feature some of his plays.  KG had an incredible [...]
