KG focused on his Secret Santa

Kevin Garnett did an interview on WEEI's Mut and Merloni show this afternoon, with last night's "brawl" obviously being the main topic of conversation.  But he also gave us a nice quote to laugh at in the never ending "we don't talk to Ray Allen anymore" genre.  From The Boston Globe's Gary Dzen: In a bit of a lighter moment, Garnett was asked what he was going to get former teammate Ray Allen for Christmas. “Absolutely nothing,” said Garnett, after a long pause. “We have Secret Santas around here, and I want to focus on my Secret Santa.” And that's a real (and allegedly very rare) special Christmas edition Upper Deck basketball card from 1999.  Here's the back: Follow Mark on twitter @LucidSportsFan
