A3 Garnett's second-generation signature exclusive basketball shoes designed for kevin garnett, the NBA's most valuable player, will go on sale in February, and Garnett will wear them for the first time in the NBA Star Game in February.

1On May 9, 976, Garnett was born in Maoding, a small town in South Carolina. His parents parted ways when he was very young. Garnett lives with his mother, but her mother doesn't have much ability to raise Garnett and Esley. Later, his mother remarried, and his stepfather was not very kind to Garnett and his brother and sister.

Childhood was a difficult experience for Garnett. "It can be said that I didn't have a carefree childhood at all." Years later, Garnett didn't want to recall the past.

Since 13 years old, Garnett has to go out to work every day to earn money to support his family. He has done more than a dozen different jobs, from carrying luggage to washing cars. Garnett will rush to do any job that can support himself and his sister, no matter how hard and tired it is. He used to work 20 hours a day during the holidays.

The experience of his youth made Garnett more responsible than the average person. He always feels obligated to help others. In his last year of high school, Garnett promised his neighbor's old lady that he would come back to help her grandson, Hope, regardless of his ability.

The old lady is Harper's guardian, but she can't discipline her grandson. Garnett decided to adopt Harper as his guardian after signing a huge contract with the Timberwolves on 1995. Garnett said, "I can really give him a lot of money to live comfortably with his grandmother." "But I think it is one thing to give money to others, and it is another to care for him and help him grow up together. I hope that he (Haipu) can become a useful person to society in the future, don't make bad friends, and take fewer detours. " No matter how busy he is, Garnett will take time to chat and play ball with Harper. "I think this is much more useful than simply writing him a check of 654.38+0 million." Perhaps because of his hardships, Garnett is very helpful. Two years ago, Garnett also founded the xxxxl Foundation, which is a foundation dedicated to helping young people, guiding them to the right life path and providing them with employment opportunities.

Won the NBA championship in 2008.

A rare gift

Although Garnett has little contact with his biological father, it cannot be denied that his basketball talent is not unrelated to his father's inheritance. Garnett's biological father is O Lewis Garnett. He is a very talented basketball player, but he has never played in the nba, only in the army basketball team.

In Garnett's impression, Austria's image has been somewhat blurred. I only remember being on the sidelines countless times when I was a child, watching my father train with his companions and helping them pick up the ball. It is said that Garnett's smooth movements are similar to those of his father Opal.

After his parents divorced, Garnett's stepfather didn't support him to play ball because he didn't want to put a basket in the garage or backyard, which would make the originally spacious house more crowded. The mother also doesn't encourage her son to play basketball. In her opinion, playing basketball is not the right way for her son. She wants her son to study, receive higher education and find a decent job after graduating from college.

But obviously, the mother underestimated her son's basketball talent. In middle school, Garnett was highly valued by the coach of the school basketball team and began to show his face.

I left the quiet South Carolina and went to Chicago, where I entered the basketball middle school, namely farragut College. Here, kevin garnett met his first legendary teammate-Ronnie Fields. Garnett, a high school partner, once dunked at the free throw line. Because of him, vincent carter, the most famous "Dunk General" in NBA, is afraid to take part in the national high school dunk contest. It is around this genius that Garnett is called "the boy". When Garnett first entered high school, he had a one-on-one "bullfight" with Fields, and Garnett was hit by 1 1. Since then, Garnett has worked harder than before. Two years later, he has become another legend in the senior high school team of farragut University. Today, Garnett has won the highest honor among basketball players, but Fields can only fool around in the minor league USBL because of a car accident, so Garnett has always said: "There are many people with very strong strength, but not everyone has enough luck. I can be today and must learn to be grateful. "

Although in the four-year high school season, Garnett scored 2533 points 1807 rebounds and 739 blocks; He also won the title of the most outstanding player in McDonald's national basketball game, but when he first entered the NBA, people still called him "boy". Almost everyone has a low opinion of him because he is a high school student-a thin high school student.

On Garnett's growth path, john hammond, the manager of basketball affairs of Piston Club, is a key figure. Hammond has a unique eye. He found Garnett in the high school league and introduced him to Chicago training camp at 1995. Garnett became famous overnight. In the same year, the fifth place in the first round of the nba draft was selected by the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves signed a huge contract with him, which became a sensational news at that time.

Kevin McHale, general manager of Timberwolves basketball affairs, still remembers Garnett's first scene. Garnett completed a difficult dunk. "At that time, everyone was shocked. Everyone opened their mouths wide and could hardly believe their eyes. On the way back, today's Timberwolves coach Sanders (former general manager of the club) began to mutter, "This guy, we must never give up."

It turns out that Sanders' vision is not wrong. After Garnett joined, the Timberwolves entered the playoffs for eight consecutive years.

Outside the court, Garnett's life is rarely noticed. In fact, this strange and even funny star is a very tasteful fashion designer. He owns his own clothing brand, named obf, and his business is quite prosperous.

Garnett belongs to Taurus. People in this constellation have one thing in common: perseverance and great emphasis on learning new things. I like the fashion industry, Garnett said, because fashion can make people keep abreast of the trend.

Garnett has an eye for texture and color. He is not only interested in clothes, but also has a lot of research on interior decoration design. Garnett's new house is so big that he designed it entirely by himself. He always decorates his bedroom with good taste. "I don't want to invite anyone to decorate my house," he said. "I am a person with a strange taste. The decoration at home, even a small decoration, reflects my thoughts. " In Garnett's mansion, there are only two simple colors: white and black, whether it is wall paint or furniture color. That's Garnett's favorite color. He said it was the "best" color and "never out of date".

Garnett, who is 2. 1 1 m tall, also pays great attention to his usual clothes. He thinks it is important to dress appropriately and wear his own style.

Look at Garnett outside the stadium, he really has a way of dressing: diamond earrings and silver necklaces always complement fashion, and his tall and thin figure gives Garnett a unique temperament like a model. While pursuing fashion, Garnett does not blindly follow the trend, but pays attention to wearing his own style. He prefers black and white in dress, and there are the most black and white fashions in the wardrobe.

Even if the income from playing in the Timberwolves is not counted, the successful operation of obf makes Garnett among the rich. Garnett insisted that he didn't do business to make money. "Although money is tempting, it is not everything. I think the most important thing is to make myself and the people around me feel happy. " Because of this, after having a fortune, Garnett's first thought is how to repay the society. "The ultimate goal of doing business is to repay the society. Pass on what you have learned to more people. "

Garnett often says that his private life is the last thing he likes to talk about. His good friend and former teammate Maric Shawn was killed in a car accident. Although many years have passed, until now, Garnett's eyes will still be wet as long as Maric's name is mentioned. Obviously, Garnett is a sentimental person. He won't forget the past, he will only remember it.

KG2 is equipped with Adidas' most powerful shock absorption system, and adopts a3 revolutionary technology to provide extremely light shock absorption system and super durable support. The three-line design embedded in the upper brings customized comfort and provides complete coverage.

The feeling of fit. The forefoot is made of adiPRENE+ elastic damping material, and then the torsion system is used to strengthen the support and protection effect of the arch, and the heel is made of a3 three-dimensional structure to enhance the damping and conduction functions, thus taking the first step faster than others. The tongue is made of mesh material, so that both feet can feel the perfect covering effect and comfortable breathability on the court at the same time.

Garnett's personalized design can also be found on KG2, such as KG back number 2 1 on the side of shoes, KG exclusive totem and Garnett on the heel and sole, and the signature of KG relief. The most special thing is that the inside of the shoe is embroidered with 2Malik to commemorate malik sealy (malik's teammate and friend of Garnett Grey Wolves died in a car accident (Malik's jersey number is 2, and he was killed by a truck driving in the opposite direction on his way home from Garnett's birthday party in 2000).

From the beginning of the research and development process, Garnett joined the discussion, and he completely participated in the control of the sole on the ground, technology, color and design. He hopes that through continuous discussion, he can create a pair of exclusive models of KG Wolf King style.

Garnett was the most valuable player in the NBA in 2003-2004, leading the Minnesota Grey Wolves to win the Western Conference championship for the first time. This season, Garnett has continued his consistent excellent performance, currently ranked first in the rebounding list, averaging more than 20 points per game, and was elected as the starting forward in the Western Division of the NBA All-Star Game with a high vote.

Since Jordan retired, all parties have been busy looking for a successor for him, including Kobe Bryant, Carter and the latest James. Most of the successors are similar to Jordan. But if you want to find a basketball player who can compete with Jordan in his bones, Garnett should be the first among the active players. Garnett is like Jordan, and their * * * nature is their persistence in winning.

Every successful NBA star has his own struggle history, and Garnett is no exception, which can be confirmed by his tattoo. Garnett wrote "KG" on one arm and basketball on the other. These three words record the growth of MVP.

[attack]

As we all know, kg's attack is softer than SHAQ and TD, which is caused by its thin body ... Its attack means are mostly mid-distance back jump shot and back turn jump shot, with the extremely fast speed in F as the main way. Although its play is out of bounds, its shooting percentage is guaranteed because it is difficult to be blocked and interfered, and its score is very stable, averaging 20 points per game. However, because of stability and selflessness, MSKG has no strong scoring explosive force, which is even worse than Manu. The highest score of his career didn't reach 47 until the outbreak of the sun this year. It can't be said that KG can't get 50+, but he doesn't seem to have this desire, which may also become a bottleneck problem in his attack. KG's passing vision is excellent, so that opponents dare not double-pack, and the overall situation is very good. The ability to shoot key shots is also very strong, such as two three-pointers against the Kings and the Clippers' whistle ball. Sending away is more gorgeous and elegant than TD, so it is a big basic principle to call big tickets and TD.

[defense]

Defending the first team for many years, the individual defense ability is extremely strong. Yao Ming once called it Okumo, with extremely flexible pace and extremely slender arms. Coupled with its BT physical quality, it can still interfere with the ball even if it can't stop the opponent. Defensive rebounds ranked first in the NBA, with excellent prediction and control, and became the NBA rebounding king for two consecutive years. Because of kg's flexibility and predictive ability, his steals have been kept at the top level of F, and he can keep 1.5 steals per game. However, due to his mobility, he often covers the perimeter and even directly guards his opponent SG/SF, and his physical confrontation is slightly inferior. His cover shot is not very good, except last season, which averaged around 1.7 per game. He is an active defensive player with a strong sense of rotation and transposition. Under the condition of 1V 1, almost all technical players are free from death except meat sticks. ...

[in good health]

Abnormal physical fitness, unofficial history said that he can touch the upper edge of the rebound ... Although it is not necessarily true, it can definitely be used as a reference. The wingspan reaches 228CM, and the height seems to be the same as SHAQ's ... It can defend Kobe alone, and McGrady's lateral speed, sprint speed and explosive power are also first-class. When I first entered the league, I was praised for my passion and dunk. The fans' hats in the air are waiting for the opponent's ball to come out directly, and the ball is pulled up and shot at an unparalleled speed. Dunk is explosive and flexible (like of 205). If I want to take part in the current dunk contest, I'm definitely better than Xiao S. Now I've got my skills on my back and started to protect my body. There are fewer super dunks like Xiao S, but the dunks are still gorgeous, and gorgeous ... KG has never been banned for a long time, but in recent seasons, MS's knee injury has had a great impact, as if her physical fitness has declined slightly ... KG, hold on!

[potential]

As a high school student, KG has been making progress. Until now, it has been competing with TD. At that time, it signed a sky-high contract because of its unlimited potential. Now it seems that it should be worth it. I have reached the pinnacle of my career. Because I am only 28 years old, I should be able to keep this state for several years, hoping to find a good helper and get the ring.

[secret skill]

Turn around, step back, jump shot, and the blocked shot rate is almost zero. ...

[honor]

2003-2004 NBA regular season MVP, 2002-2003 all-star MVP.

In recent 10 years, he is a representative of high school students and a template for all-round players, but he may be the next all-star after Malone to struggle for a lifetime without a championship. On the court, KG did his best. Rebound king, defensive barrier, offensive hub. The offensive firepower may be a little insufficient, but you can't ask him for more.

This is related to the beginning of Garnett's basketball career. Garnett's biological father, O Lewis Garnett, is a man with great basketball talent. He used to be the main force of the army basketball team. But after his parents divorced, his stepfather didn't encourage Garnett to play-because he didn't want the garage at home or the driveway in the community to be a basket. And my mom wants Garnett to go to college-basketball? She thought her son only played on the middle school team after school. But obviously she was wrong. In middle school, Garnett set himself a goal in life. After a fight with his teammates on the school team, Garnett carved the word "KG" on the wall of the classroom, vowing not to lose to anyone on the basketball court, which also doomed him to become the Wolf King.

Khan represents Garnett's struggle in the past eight years. Garnett is one of the few players who directly entered the NBA from high school and achieved success. In four years of high school, Garnett scored 2533 points, 1.807 rebounds and 739 blocks. He won the title of the most outstanding player in McDonald's national basketball game. So 1995, Garnett was selected by Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the draft. After entering the NBA, although he weighed only 99 kilograms, Garnett had to confront some superstars inside because of his height of 2.08 meters. Malone, Kemp, Webber, Ewing and Olajuwon all made him suffer, but at that time he was afraid to face O 'Neill. At that time, two lines were drawn on the wall of the general manager's office of Timberwolves, one with a distance of 2. 10 meter and the other with a distance of 2. 14 meter. These two lines are used to measure Garnett's height. The idea of the Timberwolves Club is that when Garnett grows to 2. 10 meters, his position on the court will change from small forward to power forward. If it grows to 2. 14 meters, Garnett will be the center. So since Garnett's height has exceeded 2. 10 meters, Garnett has never been straight in the weekly height measurement. His analysis is: "Hey, you know I will defend O 'Neill when I grow up! God, don't let my body grow up again. "Fortunately, Garnett only grew to 2. 1 1 meter in the end. After eight years of hard work, Garnett has become the best inside player in the NBA with O 'Neal and Duncan.

Tears recorded Garnett's unhappiness in the past eight years. In the past 20 years, only two players have played all five positions in NBA official competitions. They are Antoine Walker and toni kukoc. But now, almost everyone thinks that Garnett can do it as long as Timberwolves coach Sanders agrees, and it is definitely better than Walker and kukoc. Unfortunately, basketball is a team sport. Although Garnett can play all positions on the court, he can't make his teammates in the other four positions reach the same level. The teammates around him didn't give him enough help. First, Marbury and Giuliota left him. Then Joe Smith's "black gold case" made the Timberwolves lose the chance of the draft. In the end, Brandon's career was completely scrapped. Garnett struggles every season. However, for seven consecutive seasons, Wolf King and his team stopped in the first round of the playoffs.

Last season, the Timberwolves finally came to China, and Garnett reached a new peak in his career. Garnett won the first MVP with sweat, blood and tears.

In addition to winning the MVP last season, Garnett officially signed a lifetime contract with Adidas, the world's second largest sports shoes manufacturer. Andy Miller, the star agent of Minnesota Timberwolves, declined to disclose financial details.

Garnett, one of the best-selling stars in NBA, suddenly ended his contract with sports manufacturer AND 1 and switched to another sports brand giant Adidas.

Garnett didn't explain why he parted ways with AND 1, but he promised that his products would keep their street characteristics after cooperating with new sponsors. Before entering the NBA, Garnett was the famous king of street basketball in Chicago, and 1 company has always supported street basketball, which is in line with Garnett's unrestrained style. After signing with Adidas, Garnett quickly assured the fans or consumers who supported him.

Garnett has been playing for the Timberwolves since the first day he joined the NBA, but the sponsor is the third. Before AND 1, he was a member of NIKE. During Nike's five years, he sold 530,000 pairs of sports shoes, while McGrady sold 750,000 pairs of Adidas shoes. Garnett thinks it's not that his appeal is not as good as McGrady's, but that Adidas has invested more. "You can see McGrady, TV, magazines and radio everywhere, and Adidas has provided great support behind him."

Adidas is very excited about Garnett's joining. They already have two superstars, Duncan and McGrady. Plus Garnett, the "Adidas lineup" is even more impressive in the league. "We have the three best players in the NBA, and they can compete with any opponent." Wolf, director of sports marketing at Adidas, said. Adidas also values Garnett's "street background", which is also a place to attract young consumers. According to the analysis, the most valuable stars in NBA are Iverson, Garnett, McGrady and future star James. Without exception, they are all young talents who are good at fighting alone. For the target consumers aged 65,438+05 to 32 in the sports shoes market, such idols undoubtedly have great "lethality".

"We really don't just want to see Kevin wear our shoes on the court. We also want him to wear them after he retires. Because Kevin is excellent and can inspire people to move forward. " Adidas spokesman Travis said.

In the past few days, Adidas has been trying to open the sports shoes market in the United States, and until now they are still catching up with Nike. Adidas has signed a star with McGrady, the scoring champion of last season's regular season. tim duncan, who won the MVP twice in a row, also switched to Adidas after ending his five-year contract with Nike.

Garnett ranked second only to Duncan in MVP last season. This year is the last year of his six-year contract with the Timberwolves, and he will get 28 million of1260,000 dollars.

Andy Miller said that signing a life-long contract with Garnett was unanimous within the company, just like Michael Jordan was to Nike. "He is only 27 years old. We can't see the future clearly. Maybe Kevin will be interested in the shoe business and formally join our company. "
