I thought this was pretty cool

A legit career power forward pulling down more boards than all time great centers like shaq and dream? Incredible #goatpf

What a humble move by KG. He didn't have to take anyone's shine like Duncan did to Kobe. He let the whole summer play out and is going to quietly retire. Let Duncan and Kobe take all the shine. All class

Not cereal

Is Duncan even going to attend the Hof ceremony? Seeing how he's so humble and doesn't like attention or recognition and all. He should stay home and have kg accept the induction on his behalf like how they do at awards shows

Only 3 going on 4 years after the '13 title and none of the big 3 are playing for Miami. Unbelievable.

Same thing happened with Boston's big 3, no?

Paul pierce just auditing the clippers at this point

 

[JD617]

With his 25,000 points, 10,000 boards, 5,000 assists 1,500 blocks and steals, Kevin Garnett joins...no one. He’s all alone.

So long to the GPFTAPPFOAT

Salute to the greatest player I've ever watched.

Certainly a better center than KG, I give him that

 

[nick.]

So long to the GPFTAPPFOAT

I see it

 

[Bert.]

KG retired?

 

[rolaholic]

KG needs to invite Melo and Lala to his induction

 

[ill steelo]

Less surprising given the age of Boston's 3 at the time of the acquisition and the parade Miami had after signing their trio, also the infamous Bron quote during that parade.

Shocking that 3 years after a repeat, none of those guys will be suiting up for them next year.

The end of an era
