Chad Hartman, a former Minnesota Timberwolves broadcaster, reflects on the Celtics-Spurs game, and, in doing so, basically calls out KG as a choke artist.
He advises Boston fans what to expect come playoff time. Highlights include: --KG is a "very insecure" player (history of shooting air-balls during final minutes) --KG "clutches up" in the fourth quarter (eg., bad pass at end of Spurs game) --He's not even the MVP of his own team (Paul Pierce) --He comes up with "brutal" performances in all four quarters of big games (e.g., Game 6, WCF's) --Leadership skills are overrated --Practicing hard and ball-sharing are not leadership skills --Hartman's sidekick echoes sentiment that KG is "greatest #2 player of all time"
The Celtics success sure must be a bitter pill for these various Wolves personalities to swallow, as they are coming out of the woodwork by the bushel-full. Here is the link to the full discussion. Scroll to the mid-way point of the progress bar, or thereabouts.
