Kevin Garnett's intensity and propensity for running his mouth on the court were trademarks of his NBA career that includes one MVP award and an NBA championship.
It's as if Garnett did not have an off switch on the court.
That's a lot like Harry Giles, who hasn't stopped talking since summer league began last week in Sacramento. Giles had 11 points and 12 rebounds in a 94-80 win over the Memphis Grizzlies at Thomas & Mack Center.
Giles smiled when Garnett was mentioned after Tuesday's game.
