Boston Celtics legend Kevin Garnett devoted 21 years of his life to the NBA. During the same, the player was often known to be not the nicest person to have around, often engaging in trash talk?and using other means to distract his opponents. Very people have been able to create a bond with the player during that time and Garnett made sure that he wouldn?t forget them.

Only a few days after Garnett took a stance against the network that fired a close friend and teammate, he once again took to social media to praise another former teammate.

A former Celtic opens up about Boston’s snub

A few months ago, former Celtics player Eddie House sat down for an interview on the podcast Celtics Beat. Amongst the various things discussed, a topic was raised about the time when House was traded to the New York Knicks after spending three seasons with Boston. The NBA Champion said that he had no idea that he was getting traded until he pulled up for a practice session. After his teammates told him the news, which was later confirmed to him by team coach Doc Rivers, House wasn?t in a good mood.

?I was pissed. I was destroyed,? said House when describing his feelings at that moment. Apart from leaving and uprooting his life, he had to bid adieu to ?a championship team, a winning team,? in exchange for ?guys that just wanted to get the season over with.? No wonder he didn?t stay even five months before shifting to the Miami Heat.

The Celtics were able to reach the finals that season but lost to the Los Angeles Lakers. Touching upon this particular subject, the 45-year-old former player made his opinion clear.

?Quite frankly, I feel like if Perk (Kendrick Perkins) doesn?t get hurt and if I was there, I feel like we still win that championship,? said Eddie House, ?I definitely would have been able to make some shots that other guys didn?t hit.?

Kevin Garnett shares a reel featuring House’s highlights

A reel was recently shared by ?throwbackhoops?, an Instagram handle with over 565,000 followers. It featured then-Arizona State Guard Eddie House facing off against California. The match was held on the 8 of January 2000, at Berkley.

The video showed House dominating back-to-back, leaving not only the audience but the commentators in awe as well. From making shots from the corner to confusing his opponents by moving in their opposite direction and then turning back to deliver the ball through the hoop, House was continuously proving his effectiveness on the court.

The game ended with Arizona attaining a 111-108 victory, with the future NBA champion having scored 61 of them. The match led to Eddie?s score being tied with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s then-Pac-10 record.

Kevin Garnett took to his Instagram account to share the same video on his story with his million followers. He captioned the story, “shoutout to my dog ehouse @_ehouse50_Remind y’all…”
