"My game is not perfect, by any means. But I do work hard on it. We all need to work on every phase of the game," said Garnett.
When I was with the Timber Wolves Kevin McHale would grab me and we would go through footwork on the post countless times, and I've been able to acquire some of his knowledge.

"Now it's my turn as a vet to try and instill this in some of the younger guys. Whether they want it or not, I'm here to give it to them. At the end of the day, it's whether they want to be better players or not. If you want to work on things, I'm in here every day. I have a bit of a cold, but I'm in here. My leg is messed up, but I'm in here. So, if those younger guys are willing to work hard, I'm here," said KG.
"Ask anyone who worked with me, I never had a problem staying in the gym countless hours. I was obsessed with the ability to get better, I always watched Michael Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon and their go-to moves, moves they are comfortable with and had the confidence to use in big time games and big time moments."
"I was always infatuated with how you work on something, from footwork to confidence, and how the better you get at it the more confidence you have. This game is all about confidence in yourself and your ability. "
"There is nothing like going out there and showing off your art, nothing like going out and showing people what you work on, seeing if your stuff actually works. That's the beauty of working hard, is when you see the results."
