  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
It is weird- so he doesn't put up the best numbers in NBA history anymore and now he sucks? I guess the guy doesn't understand what it means for a team to win together (Big 3 compared to being the 'one' in Minny) and he certainly doesn't understand how important his defesnse is and how he changed everything when he came to Boston.

It's kind of like in Tom Brady's first few years when we were winning super bowl after super bowl, but people still refused to accept that he was a superstar quarterback and not just a product of the system. When his numbers went up, he suddenly became better than Peyton and a media darling...I guess it's kind of the opposite actually, since Brady was overrated at first, then became 'good' and Garnett was 'good' at first and is now overrated...

No matter, the guy is a choad.

Rosen has hated KG for years, so there's nothing new there.  But the interesting thing is just how lazy that analysis was...I mean, it doesn't even make sense as a criticism point.  In the two games that the Celtics lost, as Rosen pointed out, KG shot poorly...and did most everything else great.  He averaged 13 points, 13 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks in what Rosen is considering games to prove he is terrible.

Meanwhile, in the 4 wins, KG averaged 21 points, 13 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block.  Those are down-right dominant numbers. 

So Rosen's argument, as far as I can tell, is that because KG played poorly (by his standards) in the two losses but played great in the 4 wins...he's overrated?  And because he saved the best for last, putting his foot on the Lakers' throats to make the final game a blowout, he's...even worse?

I can't even wrap my head around this logic enough to get angry or try to put together a rebuttal.  It just doesn't even make sense.

I think Rosen is on the glue again.
