It's great how unselfish KG really is despite his MVP season. He instantly called his teammates to share his award with them. KG is truly a player in his own right.
This is so much better than the nonsense award shows they have today. Let the fans share the joy of the MVP. In the home crowd in the playoffs. Nothing better than that.
Lol I don't remember commenting it. Crazy it was 15 years ago. That said I really meant good old days for the Timberwolves. As far as life goes I'm pretty happy with the present barring some things I can't really control. Funny though cause that MVP was only two years previous but it felt like much more to me at the time. I was like 21 though so 2 years felt a bit different.
If KG had a better team than Duncan in their careers no doubt he would be better.Duncan had a better team I wonder If he had a scrub team with him can he win MVP?
@@dannycooper8253 Duncan was clearly the player. He just sacrificed his stats so his team could win. If he wanted to, he could have easily averaged 30 ppg. But he's not that kinda player.
i'm a huge KG fan, and both are great in their own right, can't we just accept that? we were fortunate enough to grow up in an era where two of the greatest PFs of all-time dominated. why can't we just admire them both?
This is my all time favorite player. I of course love the Celtics and even like the Timberwolves a little just because of this man. He deserved this MVP award and the ring he won in Boston. I just hope he wins a few more.
@@ayazceyhan1968 True, damn I totally forgot I made this comment thanks for reminding me haha, must've been around the same time they lost the rematch to LA... Well, title or not those were incredibly fun teams to watch and thanks to Pierce & KG the new squads are just as fun
@@hxcpwnage999 Wowwww that's so fricking cool you came here again 10 years later 😃😃 Do you think basketball was better when you made that comment, cuz I'm kinda newbie compared to you =) My interest in basketball started in 3PT&D era and when I compare games from 2000s to now I usually think "Damn, those were good times"
@@ayazceyhan1968 I don't think basketball is necessarily better now, its just so much more fast paced... I like these new Celtic teams as much as the old ones its just too bad they havent made the Finals yet
I was at this game =)......God how I miss the twolves KG games.... me and a buddy of mine actually snuck into the Target Center right after the trade and took pictures of KG stuff there before they took it down =)
Ticket deserved MVP more than once! Queen James has four. Why? In Cleveland yes he was the Most Valuable Player, but the last two in Miami, no. James has been in the East his entire career, only the top four teams have 50 plus winning season. Where's in the West you need at least 50 to make the playoffs! Plus KG had to go battle Malone, Olajuwon, Duncan, Robinson, O'Neal, Nowitzki,
Prime KG over kobe anyday. KG was such a beast, sucks to see players get old but I'm glad he got his championship. Spurs are my team and as great as Tim Duncan is KG was better individual PF. Tim Duncan is just so smart at basketball and he has the fundamentals down 100% but KG was a Beast
Rasheed Wallace could have led those spurs teams to titles. They were STACKED. KG has held up better than Duncan as well... KG plays at a higher level with far more miles on his body (playing since HS and plays more minutes per game career wise) Garnett led teams with virtually no talent to great things... A 34 year old sprewell and 35 year old cassell and kg won the #1 seed in the west and could have won the title... So Garnett is fine at winning... Duncan was blessed with a great support crew.
@GEORGEIO111 Both are awesome players. Players who play as a PF are great to watch K.Malone, T.Duncan and especially my favorite of all time KinGarnett.
holy shit... he won the trophy because he was the "Most Valuable" player. If he shouldn't have won, then who? He led a mostly average player-filled team to the number 1 seed. He led broke all kinds of franchise records. What more did he have to do to prove to you he was truly the best player in the league?
Duncan and Garnett do not heavily rely on athelticism either and Duncan is still considered a better pf and some say the best pf of all time while garnett didn't enter the discussion
for any team will be the best fit for Garnett, there's no better team to go to than the Bulls! Joining Kobe will not help because Kobe will be too busy hogging the ball. Even when he had Payton and Malone in the 03-04 season, he's still too busy shooting the ball.
i love kg but i have to disagree with your point about him being a better post player than duncan. i watched an interview where he himself admits that duncan is way better than him on post because of his unpredictability. i do agree that kg is a better defender and leader tho.
KG > TD. Better all around player than Duncan. Better at everything, no doubt about it and of course TD has more rings..... HE HAD BETTER TEAMS! KG and TD- best PFs to ever play the game along with K. Malone.
Championships/rings are a team accomplishment. In your case, is Derek Fisher (part of 5 championship teams) better than Tim Duncan(Part of 4 championship teams)? Is Robert Horry (part of 7 championship teams) better than Tim Duncan? I think not.
kevin garnett won the season mvp not facing legends like jerry west larry bird magic johnson michael jordan kareem abdul-jabbar oscar robertson bill russell and wilt chamberlain
u kno its weird, the same year he won mvp, he went on to the conference finals with the timberwolves, and lost. now derrick rose went to the conference finals and lost, but he won mvp this season. so basically, wat MIGHT happen is rose leaves the bulls for another team in 4 years and gets a title kg timberwolves 1995-2007 now wat might happen to rose ...... rose bulls 2008-2015
@doudoub2005 lol i didn't hate him he still the best power forward in the nba for me. in minnesota if you saw his post moves. well i didn't see that moves anymore when he transfers in boston. the dude just want to win a ring. thats all he needed at that time he gets mvp. just a ring. so he go to boston
@XxShiftGamingxX what I mean is Duncan is better at getting championship rings than KG. I'm replied it to a comment questioning what one thing can duncan do better than KG so I replied.
dude lebron led the cavs to 1st seed twice in a row with a pretty bad team. Plus the east had kg, pierce rondo led celtics, dwights magic, rip hamilton rasheed and billups led pistons...
hopefully kevin garnett can turn 2007-2008 into a championship year for him.
12 years later i saw this comment! he WON it
He really did!
Damm yo ass still alive bro ?
No way
this comment is history

I'm a Lakers/Kobe fan, but I was soo happy KG got MVP that year
This man brought intensity and heart to whatever team he played.
I love him. my proudest moment of his.
Last of a dying breed
Man, those were the good old days. I didn't get to see him receive it when he got so I thank you for uploading it.
Damn bro do you even remember commenting this? Sheesh 2006!!
Wow this person really said "good old days" in 2006 and look at the world now smh. Wish it was 2006...
This just shows that people will always Charish the times before their present

@@Calinks wtf you still got the same account? Nice man I wasn't even born when this comment was written 😂
Would have love for kg to win a championship in minnesota
KG really desversed that mvp and I loved how he brought his teammates to share the award
If KG had a better team than Duncan in their careers no doubt he would be better.Duncan had a better team I wonder If he had a scrub team with him can he win MVP?
buto1118 I always say that and I completely agree! Duncan simply had a better team for a while but Kevin was the better player!
@@dannycooper8253 Duncan was clearly the player. He just sacrificed his stats so his team could win. If he wanted to, he could have easily averaged 30 ppg. But he's not that kinda player.
This video was posted in 2006 and I still love this video in 2011. The glorious day of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Go KG.
Still love it in 2021 :))

God bless you big ticket
The best PF of all time
It is Tim Duncan!
Underrated when you talk about the greats KG was unstoppable and a defensive machine
I was at this game =)......God how I miss the twolves KG games.... me and a buddy of mine actually snuck into the Target Center right after the trade and took pictures of KG stuff there before they took it down =)
He made his mother proud.
The most impressive moment of the MVP awarding ceremony
2022 july 07 ,,,still watching KG❤️❤️
Most underrated player in history

@@TannerWaxman 2010-11 to 2013-14 doesn't mean anything to you?
ua-cam.com/video/hNZUZm-sV54/v-deo.html
OK who else deserved MVP those years LeBron won?
Carmelo? Pierce? Tony Parker 😂😂
Lebron was a beast stop playing you dont watch basketball
Emmanuel Zanders not Lebron
Deryl Bright jr. Lebron ain’t shit
Gotta love KG, R.I.P David Stern 💯
Came here to say "Kevin Garnett might win an Oscar Award" lol
Prime KG over kobe anyday. KG was such a beast, sucks to see players get old but I'm glad he got his championship. Spurs are my team and as great as Tim Duncan is KG was better individual PF. Tim Duncan is just so smart at basketball and he has the fundamentals down 100% but KG was a Beast
the year when garnett dominate the league together with team
im crying.
If only Cassell never got hurt. If only...
Top 5 dog of all time. Kg was the last of a true breed of great combo bigs. Well deserved
Kevin Garnett is a Boss Hogg. The Celtics are fittin on winnin it all in ought 8 baby.
KG - the world is his
Rasheed Wallace could have led those spurs teams to titles. They were STACKED. KG has held up better than Duncan as well... KG plays at a higher level with far more miles on his body (playing since HS and plays more minutes per game career wise) Garnett led teams with virtually no talent to great things... A 34 year old sprewell and 35 year old cassell and kg won the #1 seed in the west and could have won the title... So Garnett is fine at winning... Duncan was blessed with a great support crew.
back when garnett wasnt a bully but hes still got my respect
@GEORGEIO111 Both are awesome players. Players who play as a PF are great to watch K.Malone, T.Duncan and especially my favorite of all time KinGarnett.
Love you KG
The time where KG was my favorite PF along with Webber.
LOCKED IN
@JASMSJARHEADS3 yeah duncan has more ring but KG is A FUTURE HALL OF FAMER what now SON?!
Love how they get a kg silhouette in the vid.
@GEORGEIO111 i totally agree with you. there has always been guys who criticize KG unfairly. KG is the best
holy shit... he won the trophy because he was the "Most Valuable" player. If he shouldn't have won, then who? He led a mostly average player-filled team to the number 1 seed. He led broke all kinds of franchise records. What more did he have to do to prove to you he was truly the best player in the league?
This video deserves much more than 38,920 views
he looked so much nicer on the timberwolves but since he joined celtics he made the whole nba hate him
Duncan and Garnett do not heavily rely on athelticism either and Duncan is still considered a better pf and some say the best pf of all time while garnett didn't enter the discussion
Damn I ain’t even know bro had a mvp
for any team will be the best fit for Garnett, there's no better team to go to than the Bulls!
Joining Kobe will not help because Kobe will be too busy hogging the ball. Even when he had Payton and Malone in the 03-04 season, he's still too busy shooting the ball.
evenly matched i would say.
garnett-allen-pierce
the best rope in nba 2008
That and they have two completely different styles. KG ALWAYS makes the right basketball play... Kobe always take and usually makes the shot.
i love kg but i have to disagree with your point about him being a better post player than duncan. i watched an interview where he himself admits that duncan is way better than him on post because of his unpredictability. i do agree that kg is a better defender and leader tho.

KG 💪
people forgot he was the mvp few years ago
Yeah what song is that at the end?
12 years ago.
I meant videos, not radios. Damn.
eversince i played basketball you are my idol.. & also i alaways used your number to... 21 :)
kevin garnett won the season mvp not facing legends like jerry west larry bird magic johnson michael jordan kareem abdul-jabbar oscar robertson bill russell and wilt chamberlain
So? U still had kobe Duncan etc
Prime Shaq
kobe bryant didn't win mvp until 08
in 80 the nba declared the greatest player ever as bill russell and there's a documentary called the greatest player ever starring wilt chamberlain
u kno its weird, the same year he won mvp, he went on to the conference finals with the timberwolves, and lost. now derrick rose went to the conference finals and lost, but he won mvp this season. so basically, wat MIGHT happen is rose leaves the bulls for another team in 4 years and gets a title
kg timberwolves 1995-2007
now wat might happen to rose ......
rose bulls 2008-2015
Duncan's a better winner.
KG >>>> Dirk
thats just like lebron with the cavs or tracy with the magic except they were doing bad
Wasn't this award given out during the WCF of '04??
@munir99 you obviously never saw duncan play in his prime
what about denver bro.carmelo,AI,kenyon martin
big ticket!!!
@GEORGEIO111 probably keeping a poker face i think thats the only thing
@Wasgewd08 Rose may go to a team with high hopes but has only an all star in it,think about which team,haha.
@doudoub2005 lol i didn't hate him he still the best power forward in the nba for me.
in minnesota if you saw his post moves. well i didn't see that moves anymore when
he transfers in boston. the dude just want to win a ring. thats all he needed at that time he gets mvp. just a ring. so he go to boston
thank god he is not going the lakers yeah.bye bye kobe ^__^
quicksilva ur funny
y does he get an MVP and kobe doesnt and kobe is like the most accomplished player right now
Go be a hater somewhere else, QuikSilva12. Obviously, you're too afraid to see Garnett beat your chimpass teams this year. Need I say more?
lol
rofl
@GEORGEIO111 winning.
2:51 his mom, right?
@XxShiftGamingxX
what I mean is Duncan is better at getting championship rings than KG. I'm replied it to a comment questioning what one thing can duncan do better than KG so I replied.

@GEORGEIO111
Duncan has more rings
@GEORGEIO111 more rings.
@jayjoetube14 who gives a shit about rings Brian Scalabrine has more ringss than Karl Malone does that mean he's a better player?
yeah but still he was robbed
is that her mom? or just an emotional fans?
His mother and ex-wife was seen in the vid.
kobe deserved this mvp
@GEORGEIO111 Duncan is better than all of those things. Kg is a better defender though.
yeah kg is great, but duncan is better championship , and that is all that matters...
Holy shit he one the MVP? I thought it was a joke.
