    Kevin Garnett on the marvelous game 7, with M6, Uzis, you know, missiles:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3J2zudcnYkY

    Garnett on cooking team chemistry:
    "Timing is everything," he said. "Chemistry is something that you don't just throw in the frying pan and mix it up with another something, then throw it on top of something, then fry it up and put it in a tortilla and put in a microwave, heat it up and give it to you and expect it to taste good. You know? For those of you who can cook, y'all know what I'm talking about. If y'all can't cook, this doesn't concern you."
    More cooking tips:
    "I always like to use baking a cake as an example. Nothing's going to come out of the first two minutes. You have to sit there and wait on it, for y'all who know how to bake. Some of y'all don't know how to bake, but don't worry about it. Ask your mothers and fathers or something - someone who knows how to bake. But it's very similar to that. You have to give it time for it to turn into what it's going to be. Time tells everything when the results come, and I'm just glad we're in a nice rhythm right now."
    Garnett on winning the championship:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_gL_H9zAY8
    You ever go to school and you had a bully mess with you every day? I know everybody ain't no tough guy here. It's like that bully that you go to school every day [with] and you know when you get out of your mom's or dad's car, you know you're going to see him as soon as you walk through the doors, he's sitting there waiting to pat your pockets and mess with you. Then one day you say, 'This is going to stop today!' You walk in and as soon as the bully pats your pockets you lay his ass out and you see the expression on his face. You're sorta shook because you know what, you just knocked the bully out and you don't know how he's going to come back. The next morning when you come in and he's not there, it's like a sigh of relief. It's like getting rid of the bully. It's like I knocked the bully's ass out! I knocked his ass clean out. That's what it feels like. For all y'all who ain't been bullied, y'all got no idea what I'm talking about. But for y'all who have, you understand my story."
    On hyenas in the team:
    "Hyenas. Running in packs means that we help each other. Since I've been here, we've built the code on what these great organizations have been built on -- and that's history. And that's gained not by individual, but by team. And I just spoke upon that with everybody in here, without the coaches and everybody. Just letting all the new guys know what it is to be a (Celtic), reiterating that and letting them understand the severity of putting this jersey on and everything that comes with it. I won't go into that -- it's none of y'all business -- but I had to reiterate it tonight. I thought tonight was the perfect night to do that."

    actually all this and more on a SB link:

    Kind of weird that such an intense guy rocks metaphors about baking and cooking more than a few times. Especially when he didn't go to college, the time when most men get the understanding of how they work in daily culture. This is also a guy that won best interview a couple of years.
