[賽後精華] Kevin Garnett and Kevin McHale reunite

dmoomoo

This gesture between Boston Celtics forward Kevin Garnett and Houston Rockets coach Kevin McHale would stir emotions irrespective of recent events — a tragedy in Connecticut, the heartbreaking loss that befell McHale's family recently when his daughter Sasha passed away at the age of 23 — so we'll spare you a lot of text.
What we should tell you, if you're unaware of the back story, is that in 1995 Kevin McHale jumped from his Hall of Fame playing career to that of a Minnesota Timberwolves personnel executive, and he decided to tie his nascent days to the tail of the first NBA player to be drafted out of high school in 20 years in Kevin Garnett. Seventeen years later, Garnett may have superseded his onetime mentor as the greatest power forward in NBA history.
They're both much older, they're both fathers now, and Friday was a tough day for a lot of fathers.

so warm , first mentor.....just a little courtesy and acknowledgement go a long long way!!!!

Yeah I was watching the game and I was waiting for that moment. They go way back and it is really touching to see when they hug. KG maybe one of the most annoying trash talker in the league but outside the court he is a really nice guy.

It was a sweet moment. Even though they are all competing with each other, we are all still human.
