Kevin Garnett's response was two words, but it will stir many interpretations on what he meant.
After Saturday's shoot-around, he declined to share his thoughts on whether Timberwolves interim head coach Sam Mitchell is the right fit for Minnesota next season.
"Next question," Garnett said.
Garnett has often said "next question" in response to inquiries he feels are negative in nature. After an 8-8 start, the Wolves are 13-31 this season. They've have lost 15 of 17 games since Dec. 20, and Mitchell's uncertain future is a hot topic.
Although Garnett didn't stand up for Mitchell on Saturday, the two have a close relationship dating to Garnett's first run in Minnesota.
