47-year-old NBA Hall of Famer Kevin Garnett still looks extremely fit. After a 22-year-long NBA journey, the 7-foot-tall power forward has managed to stay healthy as he actively goes about his life after retiring from the NBA. During his playing days, the Boston Celtics legend never let any player dominate him or his teammates, physically or verbally. He is widely considered as one of NBA?s most ruthless trash talkers of all time.
However, in a recent podcast episode, the Boston Celtics legend seemed to enjoy Shilo Sanders? savage response to his former Boston Celtics teammate.

The Boston Celtics legend says that the possibility of that happening is highly unlikely because the athletes of today?s generation are not serious enough. He believes that athletes today have become less passionate about the game and are more interested in superficial things like looking ?cool?.
Kevin Garnett explains that his passion for the game and the need ?to win? won?t sit well with today?s generation of players. Coach Prime (Deion Sanders) completely agrees with the former NBA star as he recalls telling his son (Shilo) the same thing about him (Deion) coaching an NFL team.
