Yesterday on WEEI, Jackie Macmullan interviewed and said that she thinks that this is Kevin Garnett's last year playing and she expects him to retire after the season.
It seems crazy at this time because Kevin Garnett has been nothing short of amazing this season and playoffs. KG in the playoffs has averaged 20 points, 11 boards and shooting a blistering .55%. He is playing at a max contract level, and it would be crazy if this is it. She goes on and says that last year, people had no idea how much Kevin Garnett was hurt last year, and that it wouldn't surprise her if he's in pain even this year.
To me, obviously, I would love for the Celtics to win it this year and KG to ride off into the sunset. But if he was to come back, I don't think he will be cheap. I also think with the lack of free agents out there the Celtics should take the Papi approach and just give him a 1 year, 20 million dollar contract until he retires. I would hate to see him playing in any other uniform than a Celtics uniform.
However, this will all go away if the Celtics go out and win a championship, so they should go out and do that.
