Kevin Garnett and Adam Sandler explain how KG got such a big role in 'Uncut Gems' | The Jump
Спорт
"Uncut Gems" stars Adam Sandler and Kevin Garnett join Rachel Nichols and Paul Pierce to discuss how KG got such a big role in the movie -- especially with directors Josh and Benny Safdie being such big New York Knicks fans; KG playing himself during the 2012 NBA Eastern Conference semifinals featuring the Boston Celtics vs. the New York Knicks; KG likely being a Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame nominee; and whether Pierce could get an invite to his induction.

You got a crush(that is him) that's why you say s'' like that.
I heard him say Chauncey Billups. Imagine that 04 Pistons squad with sheed coming of the bench and KG starting (sheed only played hard hard for about 15 minutes a game, but he was unstoppable in those 15, if he ever accepted the bench role he could have just come in and put up buckets on the second squad) that team would have won again and again and again. The only reason they didn't go back to back was because they didn't resign Okur and weren't deep enough with their bigs.
Adams so humble I love this man and he’s hilarious

I'm not American so I had no idea who KG was before watching the movie. I genuinely thought they just got a professional actor to play the role, didn't think it was self-acted.
I had not heard many KG interviews before this press junket but while I knew he was intelligent, thoughtful and erudite, I had no clue how comfortable he could be in front of the camera!
1:00 The definition of killing people with kindness.
I've always loved KG!!

Dude now I’m wondering what it’d be like with Kobe 🤔
Hopefully Amare makes HOF next chance he gets this class was too stacked
Adam my All time fav actor. He has too many classic movies.
If kobe was in this movie I would probably watch it everyday just because of him No offense to KG he's a legend too
KG always got to find a way to throw shade at Ray.
So we just goin forget KG was on The Jamie Foxx Show??? 🤔🙄 Classic episode!
Adam sandler is the best guy
