Kevin Garnett didn't feel sentimental in returning to Minnesota on Wednesday night as a member of the Celtics.

“It’s easy to come in here and focus, because they don’t have any of my old teammates here now,” he said. “My history from here has passed. I did take a moment tonight to look around, but there are so many changes here that I can’t relate to, so I have no reason to.”

Garnett hopes the fans in Minnesota are demanding in their wishes to support a winning team.

“There was separation for me the moment I was traded (to the Celtics),” Garnett said. “The guys I had a special relationship with had moved on, and I never looked back. When a new page in my book turns, I try to embrace that.

“Minnesota’s home, or my second home, or a home for me, but I don’t think of anything right now but playing in Boston. But this was nice.”
