Last night Daddy and Camden watched our old friend Kevin Garnett make his debut with his new team, the Boston Celtics. It was tough to see KG in a uniform other than the Minnesota Timberwolves. It's a shame that KG had to leave Minneapolis. It's not just that he is a great player, but he is a great person.
Apparent in the passion KG shows for the game, he is the consummate professional. You never hear a bad thing about him. He's never been in trouble with the law and when push came to shove for him to be traded, he didn't say a word.
Before we had Camden, I always hoped that our child would have a quality local sports hero like KG to admire. When I knew we were going to have Camden and the news of KG leaving hit, I was disappointed to say the least. I guess Camden can still admire from afar, just like his Daddy had to with his childhood sports hero, Michael Jordan.
