It appears Kevin Garnett's strained knee is not progressing as anticipated and his availability to the Boston Celtics for the NBA playoffs appears to be in doubt.Celtics head coach Doc Rivers said on WEEI Radio in Boston Thursday morning that K.G. was not ready to play and may miss the entire NBA Playoffs.
“I don’t see it. I just don’t,” Rivers said. “I’ve flipped completely, because I was watching him move (before) and he looked great."
Rivers told Garnett who shall we say was not real thrilled.
"He was frustrated. He was mad at me, mad at everybody. Then he understood," Rivers said. "He put up a fight. He's really frustrated, but that's Kevin. That's why we got him, because he cares so much."
Boston begins their playoff run Saturday against the Chicago Bulls.
