Kevin Garnett is apparently the king of holding onto heartache.

Minnesota Timberwolves teammate Gorgui Dieng says the league veteran cannot get over the fact that his Boston Celtics blew their 3-2 series lead to the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2010 NBA Finals.

"He always talks about the (2010) Finals they lost," Dieng told the Boston Globe's Adam Himmelsbach. "I think he can't swallow that pill. He always talks about it. You can see how angry he is when he talks about that Finals."

Dieng added, "They were great and they were going to win it and he still doesn't understand why they lost."
