"You should ask Erik about this, you should trust his professional judgment."
"No, Roger, I want to hear your opinion."
Kevin Garnett was willing to listen to Roger's opinion on such a crucial career decision. It was something to be proud of to be trusted like this. However, Roger also knew that what he said next could potentially change history.
"You know, I generally aim to win a championship with the teams I've been with, leaving no regrets. But if the team doesn't share that vision, going it alone will ultimately yield nothing."
"I understand, Roger."
Hanging up the phone, Roger sighed deeply, unsure of what impact this call would have on history this time.
However, Roger believed it was reasonable for Garnett to leave Minneapolis.
Because it was clear that the Timberwolves just wanted Garnett to help sell tickets rather than investing much for a championship.
