The Celtics are 25-5 vs. the West, and 8-2 vs. the Pacific Division. There goes your argument.

I agree with you there. He's right up there with KG. If CP3 wins I'd be okay with that.
Kobe is great but the Lakers were blown out by the C's.
The C's have an 83.3% winning percentage versus your beloved Western Conference. The Lakers on the other hand have only a 66% winning percentage versus the weak East. So your Eastern Conference argument is just embarrassing.
To even argue that anyone has impacted the entire league in 2007-2008 more than Kevin Garnett makes me wonder if you're paying attention. The Celtics are
60-15 and have completed dominated the Western Conference including the Lakers. They have the best record in the league, and it's all because of Kevin Garnett.
There are other angles too you're not considering. If KG didn't come here, our great bench players like James Posey, Eddie House, Sam Cassell, etc would never have come here. KG has changed EVERYTHING, and the impact has resulted in the best record in the league, so I can't even fathom how anyone could argue otherwise.
