“Slippage man, some of the hardest games are between 30 and 55 of the season and those are the grind games and at this stage, we have to grind all these out,” Garnett said. “It’s a good time for everybody to be coming back and coming back strong.
“It’s accountability, man. I’m telling you, our defense is built off grit and effort. You either you can do it or you don’t want to do it. The man behind you having your back, that’s what it is, nothing more, nothing less than that.
”WEEI: KG on his Celtics: "It's accountability, man"
This is the second time today that we're hearing how difficult this part of the schedule is. I know we shouldn't expect a magic turnaround with KG back... but if the Celtics main problem is intensity and focus... why WOULDN'T we see a dramatic improvement?
KG also explained why he's so stubborn
“It’s a Taurus quality, and all you Tauruses know what I’m talking about,” he said. “For the most part, I feel really good and I’m just going to listen and when he said I’m able and they give me the green light, then that’s when it is.
Yeah, that's what it is.
JR Giddens won't be around to see any dramatic team improvement. He's going to be in Maine, playing for the Red Claws.
