Garnett Among Historic Group Of 2020 Hall Of Fame Nominees

Talk about an absolutely star-studded Hall of Fame class.

Earlier this week, the Basketball Hall of Fame announced the 2020 Hall of Fame Finalists. The four most-notable names were Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Chris Bosh and former Timberwolves star Kevin Garnett.

Garnett will no doubt be a first-ballot Hall of Famer. In an era in which there were so many good power forwards (KG, Duncan, Rasheed Wallace, Chris Webber, Dirk Nowitzki, etc), Garnett was the best defender out of that bunch and helped transform the basketball scene in Minnesota. And while there's no stat for this, Garnett definitely played with more intensity than anyone in the history of the game.
