KG suggests that his quote was taken out of context. He says he was speculating that he wouldn't make the team in the future, not that he was planning on retiring.
KG also indicates that he wants to retire a Celtic and be "buried in green".

Good to hear. I love watching KG play.
-
Not surprised. KG ain't retiring unless the team gets completely blown up. And even then he might not retire.
-
I knew it was a big to do about nothing. It sure was funny watching everyone get all twisted up over it though.

Not shocked that's what he's saying now, but not completely buying it either. KG seems like a very candid person, and I think he just let something very personal slip without thinking about it. This is all damage control.

I'm less likely to take KG too literally, especially right after a tough game.

Absolutely a fair point. Being that exhausted can lead to saying impulsive gut reaction things you don't mean in hindsight, at least as likely as saying true things you didn't mean to reveal to the media.

I really don't think KG ever thought he'd be voted in as a starter this late in his career.

I don't know... We saw the video: i still think (or better: fear) he was referring to two things
1) there is a possibility he is going to traded this year (will retire in the offseason)
2) he knows danny is going to rebuild in the offseason (same conclusion: kg will retire in the offseason

Same here, I was shocked myself
Not saying he didn't deserve it this season, but that the casual fans wont think so

Disagree completely. I thought this is what he meant from the beginning.
KG is a humble person and knows he probably didn't even deserve this all star nod.

Obviously, reporters make a crazy story out of it.

yeah this is true.
As Doc suggested, there is also a strong possibility KG would say he wanted to retire right up until he actually had to stare never playing again in the face... then he'd have to come back again. Too much of a competitor.

Didn't listen to the link, but I heard him on NBATV this afternoon and he basically said the same thing there. I too did not buy it then and I still don't.
I think you nailed it. He momentarily let out too much and is now playing it down because of all the attention it got nationally (all over ESPN yesterday).
