Nets' Garnett: 'I'm not happy with my play right now'

The Brooklyn Nets have shared their struggles much more than the ball during the first two games against the Miami Heat, with veteran Kevin Garnett appearing like a shadow of his former self. 

After averaging eight points on 56 percent shooting in seven games against Toronto, the 37-year-old has been nearly invisible on the offensive end in two games against Miami, shooting 2-of-10 for just four points.

"I’m not happy with my play right now. I’m trying to get in a flow and a rhythm," Garnett told the New York Daily News. "Try to bring something. It’s just frustrating. But I’ll grind through it.

"[I'll] continue to work. Continue to find ways to be aggressive offensively. Continue to look for opportunities. Rebound the ball. And continue to talk and inspire."

Garnett was limited to 54 games and a career-low 20.5 minutes per game this season as head coach Jason Kidd tried to preserve him for the playoffs, but if he continues to struggle, KG won't argue with Kidd if he decides to go to someone else. 

"I knew I was giving up things coming here [in a trade from the Celtics]," Garnett said. "I understand that. I’m not going to be a distraction or complaining about things that I kind of anticipated. Whatever [Kidd] needs [me] to be on this team I've tried to be and will continue try to be. I’m not going to come off and be a distraction at this point. I understand my job and go out there and do it to the best of my ability. If I have a chance to be aggressive, I’ll take those chances. If not, do what I can, do the things that I know I can."
