    While the undefeated Celtics are winning games due to outstanding team play on both ends of the floor, individuals are getting recognition as well. Celtics forward Kevin Garnett was named this week's Eastern Conference Player of the Week, an award that a Celtic hadn't won since Al Jefferson took it home last March.</p>

    The Boston Celtics' Kevin Garnett was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week for games played Monday, Nov. 5 through Sunday, Nov. 11.

    Garnett's 22.7 points, 15.3 rebounds and 6.3 assists helped lead Boston to a 3-0 week. At 5-0, the Celtics are off to their best start since the 1987-88 season (6-0) and are the NBA's lone remaining undefeated team. In Boston's three games last week, Garnett tallied a point-rebound double-double in each to go along 2.7 steals and 1.7 blocks. Garnett's 15.8 rpg for the season leads the NBA.

    Here is a closer look at the week for Garnett:

    It's a pretty safe bet that you'll be able to be bumping this tread up several times this season.</p>
