Miami Heat: The thing that bothers me most about Kevin Garnett Interview

The Miami Heat are always a hot topic, all puns intended. Kevin Garnett was living proof recently in an interview with Bill Simmons of The Ringer.

The Miami Heat are going along, just minding their business, off to a 20-8 record in the 2019-20 season as a matter of fact. Almost everything was right in Miami Heat Land.

Ok, we should be totally honest as, outside of certain Dion Waiters snafus, everything is officially peachy. As if Waiters’ string of suspensions this year weren’t enough though, culminating with his most recent on in PhotoOnABoatGate, NBA great Kevin Garnett has been at the Miami Heat in the media lately.

In case you hadn’t heard, KG was on a recent episode of Bill Simmons’ The Bill Simmons Podcast, and boy did he go in. He discussed many things, but one thing that came up was the rivalry between him and his Boston Celtics teammates and the Big 3 of the Miami Heat. Here is an excerpt that summarizes the thoughts of the future Hall Of Famer.

Yep, whether you listen to the complete interview or whether the above was all you got, you heard it correctly. While the entirety is a ton to flesh through, there is one overarching point above any other.

Kevin Garnett seems upset with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh because they did exactly what he, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce did. The sheer hypocrisy is stunning, maddening, and downright confusing.

While everyone is entitled to feel how they feel, at least make it somewhat sensible. While there is also a ton of fact in the accounts he recalls, all fact I am sure, the logic is just well… illogical.

That rivalry is clearly one that will never be forgotten about or let go of, as indicated by Garnett’s words in the above clip and interview as a whole. It was great when it was happening and is still awesome to reminisce upon, but can we at least be reasonable?
