Kevin Garnett, on Joel Embiid's breaks: "82 games man, that's what the damn job entails"

Kevin Garnett has gone completely crazy on the podcast he shares with Paul Pierce talking about Joel Embiid's rests. The former NBA champion with the Boston Celtics and Minnesota Timberwolves legend, visibly upset, made it clear what he thinks about the Cameroonian's breaks in a heated reaction to his colleague's question.

Pierce asked him what he thought was a good number of games for the Philadelphia 76ers player, who was the league's MVP a couple of years ago, and Garnett couldn't have been more clear: "82 games, man, that's what the damn job entails. If you play playoffs, then the Games, then the summer, then the season, that's when you rest, but I'm not going to criticize that crap, the son of a bitch is going to sit out the back-to-backs. Enough already with comparing eras, it has nothing to do with it if you don't play."

Pierce pointed out that Embiid missing many regular-season games could lead the Sixers to have bad playoff matchups again: "You could end up facing Boston in the first round, and that's not good."
