7 years ago tonight in Utah

[gift]

Just occurred to me that it was exactly seven years ago tonight in Salt Lake City that Kevin Garnett injured his knee, effectively costing the Celtics one or more championships.

I say 2 more championships. The C's were playing better in 2008-09 than they were in 2007-08 and certainly would've made it back to the Finals, where they had the psychological edge on that Lakers team that hadn't won anything yet.

And in 2009-10 it's hard not to think about Game 7 where Bryant had 15 rebounds and I think KG only had 3. He was never 100% that season and got the team as close as you can to another championship without actually winning. Everything else stays the same, 2 more years of healthy KG means 2 more championships, I say.
