unleadedword · Jul 31, 2007

Seems Randy Moss on Adalius Thomas are going to be pleased with Kevin Garnett coming to Boston:

I can see KG be a red zone option on 3rd and Goal.

now there's an idea

Rumor is that Pierce and Jesus Shuttlesworth did some major recruiting of KG but I also wonder if KG lobbed a call into old friend Randy to get the lay of the NE land...Just wondering, but these guys talk.

i mean..at 6"11..can u get it over him? im thinking about 15 INTs per season .. most from QB simply trying to throw it over him :\

not to mention his leaping ability and intensity. hes got the heart of Ellis Hobbs and work ethic of Brady. Size of King Kong.

Lets compare Asante and Garnett

5"10 vs 6"11
185 vs 255
26 vs 31 (age)
35 vs 45 (vert)
.27 vs 1.4(steals/INTs)..16 INTs divided by 59 games..average while KG has 1.4 SPG

i think we would be getting a steal.

But can he run?

Ray Allen and Garnett have been friends since they were kids. Garnett was ticketed to UConn in 1995 before it became obvious he was already NBA bound.

Right! Aren't they both from S. Carolina or something?

Well if the Celtics fail miserably this year it won't be for a lack of star power.

his 40 is unknown but he can run the floor in the NBA so we'll have to watch for the conversion to NFL

we believe hes capable of running with most WRs and with his frame..we dont think they'll get it over him so i think he would be nice for a zone and man verse bigger WRs or guys that wont juke all over

Who cares. The NBA is a **** league anyway. Back to football por favor.
