Celtics legend Kevin Garnett, And1 icon The Professor pick their all-time starting five
When it comes to Hall of Fame Boston Celtics big man Kevin Garnett and And1 street ball legend The Professor, you would be hard-pressed to find two greater scholars of the game of basketball.
In a recent episode of the Showtime Basketball “KG Certified” podcast, the duo discussed their all-time NBA starting five teams and reflect on the evolution of the game. KG selected a team consisting of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Shaquille O’Neal, while The Professor went more old school with Allen Iverson, Kobe, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for his squad.
They also discuss the athleticism and skills of players from different eras, recognizing the physicality and underestimated abilities of past generations.
To hear the logic behind each of their selections and their talk about how the league has changed over the decades, check out the clip embedded above.
