Always humble with that light-up the room smile. KG always a class act.
Not on the court😹
Kg is NOT humble haha. People change once they retire but this dude was definitely not humble as a player haha
KG was my favourite player growing up. Not just for his skills but the passion and energy he brought to the game. My goat 🐐
Guess skinny jeans your favourite too
@@nassiglutt6587 shut up! Ugh!
He sitting in that chair like the way I sit in my son's elementary school chair when I go to parent teacher conferences.
So accurate lol
Wow...what a man. Humble and many praises to his mother.
Humble??? U must not know him at all
@@makaveli6873 oh.. you know him? pfft
All I know is I have only known Kevin Garnett for being one of the best defensive players of our time up until this point. He came across as a very humble, & down to earth guy, everything about it just felt genuine.
@@danp1471 *Garnett*
@@WalkingWallet lol thanks I can't believe I did that.
Shout-out to mom, for changing her mind. She changed sports history!
changed her mind ? NBA MONEY ! DONT BE FOOLED
She didn't change her mind. She just recognized there wasn't anything she could do about it. At least she was reasonable enough to see that and still keep in contact with him. Most JWs wouldn't.
@@benji3900 - What are “JWs”?
@@mikelmoon100 Jehovah's Witnesses. The religion his mother was/is. I was raised the same. Wasn't allowed to play any sports. Unfortunately for me my parents had plenty of time to force their religious bullshit on me.
anytihing is possible tomorrrow on showtime
The Big Ticket! Man what a delight it is to see KG flourish in this media angle of his post-NBA career. If you have never seen the videos for yourself, you won't believe this is the same guy who was a literal barking dog on the court.
This is probably the best interview I've ever seen on Kimble.
I don't usually read many biographies of people, but I might have to check his out.
(Got curious & looked it up)
Turns out he had one come out back in 2015 & I see nothing but high ratings for it. I have no doubt it'll one day be made into a movie. They could easily make a great one with just the details he's given here
What a tall, handsome, melanin Prince.... Kevin Garnett everybody [KG]... yeah!👍🏾👊🏾💯🇺🇲
Charles Barkley gonna talk about those skinny jeans when he sees this.
Oh, you know he is! I can't wait to hear it!
Soooo true 😅
Haha I hope he does
KG always in skinny jeans
Lmao
He wanted to buy the twolves, but they turned him down. He still has respect for them, somewhat lol. I'm glad the celtics are retiring #5. He was there a relatively short time, but his impact while there was undeniable
As a Kobe guy I HATED him during those years lol but much respect to KG. One of the greats.
More like the owner said no and was on some bs after Flip passed away. Flip was the glue guy trying to make it work for KG and Co to buy the team.
Should’ve been the finals mvp in 08
Man, the guy is still ripped. He could still kick some serious a** in today's NBA. But then again, he's KG, he could still kick a** at the age of 80. Like Bill Russell.
The fact that KG chose his path to stay away from trouble while his busy (absent) mother worked hard to keep him healthy and productive. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yeah man. As a young guy from the hood, KG really made something out of his life.
Also, the fact that he is so humble off of the court, which is totally unbelievable to me given I have only seen KG highlights on TH-cam, speaks volumes about the legacy he has left behind which we will definitely see in the docu.
@@nitishsonu67 im sorry.. That you never saw him raw. He was intense alright. 👍🏼👍🏼
Who cares? So dramatic. People should get credit for being decent people???
@@mattz8775 Haha.
So you're saying it's ok for him to be a good person but someone else can't? Lmao!! Talk about "who cares" 🤭🤭🤭
@@jadeduh4555nope. Just saying the community is so proud of itself when something goes right. Everybody else just does it as a matter of fact.
Kevin Garnett my favorite basketball player of all time
KG, watched his whole career. Beast on the court, glad he got a ring, and now hes just so awesome off the court.
2nd favorite player of all time behind the Truth. I'm sure you can guess who my favorite team is lol
❤@@ef692
Still Love you all the way down here in The Bahamas. We love you KG!!!
This is the best ever Kimmel has brought out. Kevin is a Natural STAR. I have never laughed so hard.
Really? Lol I've loved KG since his Minnesota days but I think that's a bit much
I love KG, he's so genuine. And HI-LA-RI-OUS!
It’s crazy to think what his life would’ve been like if he listened to his parents. It just goes to show that adults aren’t always right
Yeah. Unfortunately for me, my JW parents had plenty of time to interfere in my life. They found out I'd been winning every event in which I competed in track while they were going door to door. The person thought they'd be proud of me. Instead they went straight to the school and told them they were removing me from the team and I wasn't allowed to play any sports at all. Never even cared about talking to me.
It's parent's responsibilities to support their children positively, and show their kids they have faith in them
@@benji3900 worst religion ever.
Well I can certainly understand any parent who wants their child to focus on more than athlectic dreams. Any player, no matter the skill level or untapped potential, is a bad injury away from losing that path to their future. You always want a backup plan.
@@benji3900 well that’s how YOUR parents were… not all JW parents are like that. They sound pretty unreasonable 🤷🏾♀️
I can't wait to see his documentary and your Mom sounds wonderful bless her soul for raising you right.
KG has a knack for storytelling. If he will be on a podcast and tell some story it would be fun..
All the smoke TH-cam channel. He tells stories for like an hour
Great player and deserves the best. I was a freshman when he was a senior in high school. Great memories
Born and raised in Minneapolis and I'm embarrassed that we haven't recognized what KG did for basketball here.
That’s not on us it’s on that bum glen taylor
No way Celtics actually retire his number first. Glen, you have one job.
Legend. You still got the key to Boston my dude! Come through!
Kevin Garnett one of the best power forwards to lace em up.. Only bad thing he did was spend too much of his prime in Minnesota overall he’s still a great nonetheless
I don't mind that he spend so much time in Minny, he put up historical numbers there in an Era where teams only scored 100ppg, it was fun to watch even if they were a first round exit
Unfortunately it happens to many great players. Being a franchise player is great but some gets stuck in a subpar team that doesn't have good long term plans. Some feel Christian Laettner couldn't make it after Duke but I think was from being stuck on a struggling team.
it's ironic this comment is probably what would've happened to LeBron if he committed to Cleveland after the first stint
@@midealabi5535 , people will never forget he left the first time. The first thing I heard when the Bucks won was look Giannis stayed. Lebron seems caught up in the discussion of whose the best so he needs several championships to feel he can compete with Jordan and Kobe.
A seven foot guy and the mother doesn't want him to play basketball. Thats insane
and MJs dad wanted him to be a pro baseball player, good thing that never happened
@@BGRUBBIN mjs dad let him play and pratice basketball atleast lol kevins mom was gonna make him leave and stop playing lol
KG is such a real down to earth everyday person, also he was 👍 Great basketball player. 🏀 Mom did a beautiful job raising him. Hope Kevin still buy and own a nice basketball franchise, 🏀
I thought, K.G. getting standing ovations in L.A. wearing a yellow top, isn't something I get to see in my lifetime. I guess anything is possible.
KG was a damn good Basketball player!! Glad he did get a championship ring !!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Could listen to his stories all day
Kevin looks SO GOOD!!
This is a GREAT interview!
That beauty shop talk got Kevin got🤣🤣🤣
Best power forward to ever play the game.
KG is lucky that ex didn't set him up to get robbed or just rob him outright.
One of my favorite NBA players all time.
Love kg Celtic for life!
As a Celtics fan from Boston, appreciate that comment 🙌🏼
I’m sorry but if my son 7’1 you best believe I’m making him play ball 😂
I have always loved Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, always basket ball crushes!
The Kid Who Changed The Game ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kg is the best and in the best talk tv show 😍
I thought I was the only one that used to listen to Kenny g all the time especially at night at the beach in California
Never get tired of this.
Once the Wolves ownership changes in a couple years KG needs to come back and get his jersey retired. Enough of the pettiness.
I love how Jimmy put in the “Celtics are one of the great franchise, second to the Lakers!” 🤣 LAKERS ALL DAY!!! 💜💛
I love him.
KG is such an awesome dude
KG brings it best interview ever
Love KG!!
I grew up watching KG. He was and will always be my favorite and my first love ❤
Thumbing down on good mom stories should be illegal.
KG!!!!!! I love the shoes!
why wasn't this guy in the new Space Jam
Great documentary!
Let’s go KG!!
This guy is pure class
Hell Yeahh! KG! A beast on the court hated him as a Celtic but can’t deny his Skills.
Lakers for Life though lol
This is so sad in some ways. We are in the 21century there are people who still didn’t understand basic finance and banking systems. It’s almost insane
Definitely shout out to his Mom. ❤️
Seems like a good guy. I know he is funny! Blessings too him
Chuck: There go Kevin Garnett again with them skinny jeans on
Kg was the man!! Hated him because I was a lakers fan lol but he was the most intense player I’ve ever seen tbh.
love this guy! the breed
KG was outstanding
KENNY G makes relaxing music (for all language's) and is 1 of the greatest Christmas time music Artists of all time! He's truly a golden treasure to still have him in my solid Utopian dimension.
Even though these are still pre-Utopian times for everyone else/every clueless person in the World,I forgive you.
And I feel sorry for you because our media and Government ignore all interviews with anyone with genius level Utopian ideas to fix America's problems (the World too) and because more troubles are heading our way probably until they actually make it WE THE PEOPLE and not WE THE RICH AND OR FAMOUS OR BOTH!! 😢
Love it.
Nothing but love for Big ticket…KG
I will always call him Jesus!😝 Loved KG in the film!❤
Kevin is still beautiful sheesh 💜
Thats how my dad was and unfortunately I wasn't able to hide it like KG 🤣🤣
What a fantastic man
never really been a fan of KG but that was good
My hero
When I hear "Kevin Garnett anything is possible" am I alone in seeing in my mind immediately Andy Samberg ON A BOAT :D
KG!
I like this immediately. KG is my guy!!
Go celtics!!
❤️
Best moment as a Celtics fan was landing KG!!!
Wow I love KG
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
KG
This guy doesn't age
Big Ticket 🎫 ©️'s ☘️
Kevin Garnett is the only 40 yr old grown man wearing skinny jeans - Chuck
2021
KG must have some serious dirt on the Timberwolves owner for him to be treating him the way that he does.
Kevin Garnett was nasty on the court
ayy kg wit da 3s
I didnt know he was a Jehovah's witness. My grandmother is a Jehovah's witness
I didn't know he was RAISED as Jehovah's Witness either. I am one myself, tell your grandmother(who is my sister I say hello) 🙂
@@cindygarnett3090 thats funny u all have the same last name. I will tell her 😊❤
2nd to the LAKERS 💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛😂🤣😂🤣😂😂
10/10 player
KG is sweating from the forehead. He probably was hyping himself up in the green room 😂😂😂
🤣
@@CarolSpen4000 it's a joke. As a NBA player, KG was known for his intensity.
Micro Mamba 2.0
KG and Flip wanted to buy the wolves.
Good on you KD! Easy in 75
when he said his mom didnt know .... I KNEW THEY WERE RAISED JEHOVAHS WITNESSES
Bruh I’m pretty sure those jeans are cutting off his blood circulation
KG a top 40 player all time
Imagine KG knocking on your door discussing our lord and savior Jesus Christ.
