I stumbled across a small piece from hoop notes.com on Boston Celtics power forward Kevin Garnett and how he likes to help his teammates. But he doesn’t spend all day trying to help them. They either get it or they don't.
"Does he play favorites? Of course he does. He loves guys who do what they can to help the team," Doc Rivers said. "Kevin is great. Kevin tries to help every big in here. If that big doesn't listen to him one time, he'll never speak to him again. Literally one time. That has happened a couple of times. Those two guys that he did that to are no longer here and that may be one reason." (NOTE: KG IS AN INTENSE DUDE!!!)
Are you one of the few who looks to help their teammates?
Or, are you someone who is all about themselves?
A great teammate is always looking to help another player on their team.
It can be positive advice. Rebounding for them after practice. Encouraging them to get up early and hit the gym or even a small dose of congratulations on a job well done.
Lend a helping hand to a teammate.
