By this I mean his intensity. This guy goes balls out every game of the season. It's pleasure to watch this guy go all out and give the Twolves their money's worth. The only guy I can think of offhand who's the same is Ginobli. In the Spurs game against the Heat this guy looked like he swallowed a bag of aphetomines(sp) followed by a dozen candy bars. He was all over the place, it was insane. If most NBA players played like these guys the NBA would be so much more fun to watch like the NCAA.

Re: Why can't players play like Garnett?
Exactly. Thats why NCAA is so much better. Half those guys out there don't have careers at the next level so they try hard and bust their *** everygame. -

Re: Why can't players play like Garnett?
Iverson shows up and plays hard for games. Now practice, practice is another story.
There are more than two players that give 100% every game, and I think to say that there is only one guy giving his all every game is an ignorant statement.
I would agree if you were talking about their play during the Olympics (aka exhibition play), but when I watch NBA games, I see a lot of guys busting it and playing their hardest every night.
Sorry, but I just disagree completely. One of the reasons I enjoy the NBA so much is because the talent level is so high, and that if players are slacking off or doggin' it, they will get beaten, badly; and eventually, will see the bench.Enjoy football? Enjoy Goal Line Blitz!Comment

Re: Why can't players play like Garnett?
There are a number of guys that play hard every game, but it is true that there are much more that don't - or at least give this appearance that they don't."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

I agree that there are more players than Garnett that play hard every game. It is still fun and a treat to watch KG play every game though.Comment

KG sometimes plays too intense and attacks other players
No need for an avatar(gif) example.
