Oh what a feeling ...

Kevin Garnett saved the best quote for last.

“Running through the tunnel, I had so much emotion,” Garnett said. “I had to slow down to run through the tunnel. You hear the building rocking, and the bleachers were shaking. I’m the last to run out so nobody saw me, but I had to take a minute for myself, man.

“I thank the lord I’m back in this position, and I’m going to enjoy this for a little bit. I’m not going to hold back. I’m going to enjoy it for as long as it goes. But coming through that tunnel I was like, ‘Whoo, this is a rush.’ Some of you guys that have fast cars out there, it’s like sticking your head out the window doing 140 [mph].”
