"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On Wednesday night, an ancient Kevin Garnett made his much-heralded return to the Minnesota Timberwolves. As a fan of neglected NBA franchises, dominant&amp;nbsp;frontcourt&amp;nbsp;players, and poetry, this was pretty great. I love Kevin Garnett, he\u2019s one of my favorite players in basketball&amp;nbsp;history, and watching him bookend his career is everything that makes sports great.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&amp;nbsp;doesn\u2019t matter that he\u2019s averaging six points a game. The Big Ticket is already&amp;nbsp;screaming&amp;nbsp;at&amp;nbsp;Pekovic&amp;nbsp;to get back on defense.&amp;nbsp;Have you&amp;nbsp;seen&amp;nbsp;Nikola&amp;nbsp;Pekovic? That is a guy you\u2019d&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;never&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;scream at\u2026 unless you\u2019re Kevin Garnett.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;nbsp;think that\u2019s why Flip Saunders pulled the trigger to get him back to Minnesota. Yes, he\u2019s got the legacy factor, but we\u2019re also talking about a dude who\u2019s earned plenty of respect through fear over the last two decades. Want to get a team of&amp;nbsp;millennials&amp;nbsp;into&amp;nbsp;shape? A guy like Garnett is a great start. In case you\u2019ve forgotten, we\u2019ve collected a handful of videos that demonstrate just how real KG is willing to get. Watch and learn, Andrew Wiggins.\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;God,&amp;nbsp;That KG/Joakim&amp;nbsp;Feud Was So Hot&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To&amp;nbsp;be fair, if I received a below-the-belt elbow from Kevin Garnett, I\u2019d probably be dead right now. Either that or I\u2019d get the bruise tattooed. The best part is that years later, after&amp;nbsp;Joakim&amp;nbsp;became a better center than the older, slower, Garnett, KG was still&amp;nbsp;doing things like&amp;nbsp;trying&amp;nbsp;to bite his arm off.\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;The&amp;nbsp;Hero We Deserve&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why&amp;nbsp;is it that whenever anyone picks a fight with Dwight Howard, they immediately seem like paragons of justice? KG throwing that basketball at Howard\u2019s head is seriously the most altruistic thing he could ever do for basketball fans.\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;KG&amp;nbsp;Dresses Down Craig Sager&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This&amp;nbsp;is my personal pick for \u201Cgreatest Garnett moment of all time.\" We all love Craig Sager, he\u2019s a legit icon in an industry of pretenders, but I think we\u2019ll remember KG dressing him down more than any locker room interview he\u2019s ever done. \u201CYOU TAKE THIS HOME&amp;nbsp;AND YOU BURN IT. DON\u2019T ASK NO QUESTIONS. THE RED SOCKS THAT PEOPLE CAN\u2019T SEE AT HOME. BURN IT.\u201D Kevin Garnett is not a big fan of pink, which is the least surprising thing in basketball history.\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;Okay,&amp;nbsp;One More Sager/KG Clip&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seriously,&amp;nbsp;how much are we going to miss watching KG do post-game interviews? Was there anyone better at that than him?\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;I&amp;nbsp;Still Don\u2019t Know How Matt Bonner Survived This&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love Matt Bonner because he gives people like me hope. However if I&amp;nbsp;was&amp;nbsp;Matt Bonner, the literal last thing&amp;nbsp;I would ever do would be angering Kevin Garnett.\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;Kevin&amp;nbsp;Garnett Listens To Rap Music The Same Way We Listen To Rap Music&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Warning: Video contains explicit language&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Does&amp;nbsp;it make me sad that I never was talented or dedicated enough athletically to bask in an NBA victory with my teammates through the infinite bonding power of Rick Ross remixes? Well yes. How\u2019d you know?\r\n\r\n&lt;h2&gt;The&amp;nbsp;Day Garnett Solidified The Worst Nickname In The Universe&lt;/h2&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the above video Kevin Garnett yelled at&amp;nbsp;Glen Davis so hard he actually made him cry. Glen Davis now plays for the Clippers, and my dad, who is not particularly a huge basketball fan, exclusively knows him as \u201CBig Baby.\u201D That is his name now. Kevin Garnett forever christened a grown man \u201CBig Baby.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kevin Garnett is awesome.\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
