To the conference finals in 2004... The best player in team's history, and one of the best PFs the game has ever seen.

It's surreal when you realize that most of those guys on the team now probably weren't even born OR were small children when K.G. got drafted by the Timberwolves...

Me and Andrew Wiggins are both the same age (20) Kevin Garnett was drafted June 28,1995 at age 19, Andrew Wiggins was born February 23, 1995. It's crazy when you think about it he was only 5 months when Garnett was drafted and now there teammates.

Intro gave me chills. Garnett was one of my favorite current players back during his original Timberwolves era.

Don't forget this man is a legend and straight outta high school

I was lucky enough to be in attendance. Such a memorable night, every aspect of this game and presentation, Jiggly Boy, Montell Jordan performing at halftime… It was nearly perfect.

My childhood basketball hero! Still getting goosebumps by watching this.

My All-Time Favorites Magic MJ/Kobe/A.I. T-Mac The Big Ticket Shaq

I remember when I was young and went on a trip to nyc with the twolves with my dad. Kevin Garnett squeezed my head and asked me what game I was playing on my gameboy. And I got to meet flip Saunders as well, still the coolest thing that I have ever done and that was back in 04.

I disagree. I think they would get out of the first round, finally, maybe reach the WCF had Marbury elevated his career. But I still don't think they would have beaten the Lakers, Blazers or even the Kings in the early 2000s. Those three teams were loaded back then.

I agree on this one, Marbury could have been one of the best PGs in the NBA during that time. Building around the two key players would have made it easy for the Timberwolves to make a run at the championship.

I love this video. Sends shivers down my spine. Makes me think about the old days. Absolutely love this. My intensity is on 100 just like how KG's always was, is, and will be. Congrutaltions KG you've become one with the force (NBA hall of fame) just like how Yoda died in Star Wars and become one with the force to help Luke. Man this is epic! Who else is thinking about the first time through when KG was on the T Wolves!?!

goosebumps each and every time

Great to see KG back home!

I'm just now discovering this video.. Mann if that was me they would've had to take a TV timeout for me to get myself together from all the tears flowing what a soul touching tribute... I actually met KG what a cool dude& he was very down to earth 🏀👑

sutch a beautiful moment to see KG return to the Timberwolves for his last few years in the NBA. i guess you can go home again after all.

Goosebumps every time I watch this.

I get goosebumps at 4:07 with the wolf howling in the background.

His intensity keeps me playing ball all the time. The charisma, energy. It's electrifying

the best destination of his player career, best tribute to him !

Went to this game during my senior year of high school. Had fun being at it. Bought myself a KG jersey shirt as a souvenir. KG will have his T-Wolves # retired one day once Glen Taylor is out of the picture.

This gives me the feels!

I wanted to see this. Thanks!

That game was so much fun to watch. I wish I could have been there.

one of my favorite players growing up, he brings so much passion to the game

And then there's "jiggly boy" (intense background music)

KG is the OG of the NBA. For 20+ years, he has been the most intense competitor in the NBA and no doubt has himself in conversation for top 20 player of all time. If not that, he is certainly top 10 competitiveness

KG 's story is 1 of THE BEST one's. We've watch him grow from a boy to a man. And 1 of the best big men in the game. Killin part is he didn't even go to college, nobody taught to want to be gr8 & a pro, he just went out & did it, AND he NEVER HALF-ASSED on the court. He is 1 of the last few of the old school big men/players. #Passion #Heart #WarriorAttitude The man was worth watching.That's #KG

KG wanted to win with his own team. KG did not quit and tried so hard to win them a championship. KG could have joined Kobe or Tracy but he didn't. KG is one of best players to ever play against Jordan and Pippen, Kobe and Shaq. Easy NBA Top 5 All time.

1:28 what song is that ??

seeing that Nene guarded KG this game, in the introduction they should've shown Kevin Garnett's facial dunk on Nene back when Nene was playing for the Nuggets.

what is the music ???

KG actually wanted to stay in Minnesota even after losing seasons and wasting his prime there. he balked at other trade offers and only went to Boston after ray Allen signed he had no choice if he wanted a ring no superstar did more for a small franchise since Lillard.

what is the song they play

who will prompt that for music plays.

I hope they won that night

what is song name ?

Anyone got a link to just the music?

why would they cut david stern before saying : Kevin Garnett

Damn wish i was there

Best part of this night was the jiggly man coming out of retirement for KG

Someone know the song tilte

Way to fuck it up martin!
