The greatest defender of all time

[MavAlbert]

If you want to know something about KG's earth shattering defense, you don't have to look further than the 2002 playoffs.

Before the first round, KG made this announcement:


Garnett was asked about how Nowitzki is handling the ball more this season, similar to what Garnett does. The question brought forth one of this season's best quotes so far.

"Dirk can see this black angel pick him up 94 feet," Garnett told the Minneapolis Star Tribune. "We'll see how well he handles it then."
The result?

A sweep, Dallas won 3-0 and Dirk dropped the following numers on his sorry angel ass: 30 pts /15 rpg in Game 1, 31/15 in Game 2 and 39/17 in Game three, on 52% shooting and 72% 3pt.

Hard to defend when the talent discrepancy is that wide. Garnett be defending every goddamn player out there w/ the Wolves.

KG mixes in some of those trollish Rodman antics, but sometimes he would back off when someone actually confronted him, so hmm.

Prime Artest was beastly on the perimeter.

[masonanddixon]

Shawn Marion, actually.

So he didnt talk shit and then get smoked??

[Psileas]

Definitely Russell overall and one-on-one, Thurmond.

[stalkerforlife]

Ask Dirk and Duncan how good he is.

Great, but don't go overboard.

[Harison]

Russell is a GOAT defender IMO, but after him KG is up there on a short list.

Epic.

Dirk > KG without question.

dirk is a monster. easily better than kg. if you say otherwise, then youre high af.

kg is pretty damn overrated

[ProfessorMurder]

It's almost as if he was talking loudly because they were an underdog playing a better team...

Dirk, Nash, Finley, Van Exel with home court advantage in a 5 game series vs. KG, Billups, Szczerbiak

Real shocker who won that one.

KG averaged 24/19/5/2/2, but I guess he didn't show up or anything.
