RedsArmy.com Player of the Week: Kevin Garnett

Kg and kids

Games this week

  • @ Detroit:  14 points (4-8 fg) 9 reb., 3 assists, 2 steals
  • vs. Charlotte:  12 points (5-9 fg) 5 reb, 4 assists, 2 steals, 4 blocks
  • @ Philly: 22 points (8-11 fg), 8 reb, 4 assists, 3 steals

Each week, it seems like KG is taking another little step closer to being where he wants to be.  Shooting almost 61% this past week is one indication… but it's the types of shots he's taking.  It's not all long-range shots for KG.  He's mixing it up and taking more shots from 15 feet and in than we've seen this season.  He's getting in there for the rebounds a little more… and the 4 blocks against Charlotte were a great sign that he's getting a little of that explosiveness back.

KG is the emotional leader out there.  And if he's got his game… and confidence… back, then the Celtics are going to start playing more like we expected them to play.
