Kevin Garnett Tells Craig Sager He Looks Good. Wait, What?

Kevin Garnett has been known to say some bizarre things in postgame interviews, so when he started dropping borderline swear words and talking about bar fights after the Celtics came back from 27 down to beat the Magic I wasn’t at all surprised.  This is basically a standard chat with KG, except he’s on TV so he refrains from using his full vocabulary.  What did take me by surprise, though, was what he had to say about Craig Sager’s outfit.  Craig takes a lot of sh!t for his selection of… interesting suits, and over the years KG has been one of his harshest critics.  Garnett once told Sager to “burn his clothes,” and even when he’s worn relatively normal suits KG hasn’t approved.  It’s gotten to the point where a Garnett/Sager discussion isn’t complete until Craig has been insulted, and that’s why I damn near spit out my apple juice when I heard the end of their most recent talk…

“You look good, dawg.”  …wait, what?  I run it back… “you look good, dawg.”  …I don’t get it.  It didn’t even sound sarcastic.  This indicates to me that KG really was in rare form last night.  Bar fights?  Kevin Garnett’s life is a bar fight minus the actual fight.  A compliment for Craig Sager?  Unprecedented emotion.
