    I mean really i was watching the highlights this morning and after they lost to the Utah Jazz 94-80 KG left with his head down like ''Damn this is unbelievable''.

    Like one of u guys said in another thread that Minnesota organization has thrown KG's career down the drain, and McHale said he has no plans of trading KG but if he demands a trade they gonna have to trade the guy.

    Should he go to the Hornets and really make them an official playoff team?

    There's a thread like this already. And yeah, KG has choice to leave or not it's up to him.

    Man, I have felt sorry for KG from the past years. In some years, he has played better than Shaq and TD but never gotten credit for it because of his teammates.. which weren't so good and couldn't help him out. I dont care where KG goes, as long he goes to a good team. I'd sure like him as a rocket, but that wont happen for sure..

    I would love him to see play for Denver tho. Denver will be killer! Hm..
    I got this idea because Denver is looking to trade K-mart, maybe they can add someone else for K-mart and end up with KG. Denver will have a big chance of winning the finals if they can come through with this deal

    If KG feels that the franchise is going no where, and he`s really hungry for a championship, I`d request a trade. Its all up to him.

    In my honest opinion, the question is this...........Is Minnesota's Time Running Out With Kevin Garnett? And it HAS! KG is bigger than that franchise. Hell, Garnett IS that Franchise. With KG's contract, in order to build around him, build a REAL team, you have to go over and into the luxury tax threshold, which the Wolves will NEVER do. Too small of a market, and too passive of a front office. KG needs to go to a team that will pay him and the players it will take to make a championship run around him...............

    I can see KG going in a Baron Davis type deal.

    Some team is going to get damn lucky.

    If KG is not traded by 2008, he will likely opt out of his deal. I wouldn't be surprised if he's traded this summer.

    You're willing to give up Paul Pierce and a couple of good kids, because that's probably the only way you're going to get him given you don't have any expiring deals of significance this year.

    I think KG going to the sixers to be with iverson and iguodala(hopefully he improves his shots taken during the next season) would be a pretty solid team.

    McGrady 4 Garnett are you kidding me...your nuts. T-Mac(Fave player) is fine with the Rockets KG needs to go somewhere with a good/great PG/SG like Hornets or the 76ers with A.I.(that'll be something if that happened).

    I think it's time for KG to move on and so does Minnesota. How many years has it been? It's about time for a change of scenery for KG. He would be a factor to any team he goes to , but it's important that he goes to a team that already has a good cast. New Jersey is definitely a good fit, a trade with Carter would be a good idea. Carter can strut his stuff anyway he wants to in Minnesota while KG will be most welcomed by Kidd and company. A lineup with KG, Kidd and Jefferson may very well spell NBA CHAMPIONSHIP! With Kidd at the point, jefferson running, KG and Krstic inside, there's no question that they will be at the top of the east.
