hrm... interesting read here. just a rumor, but it does have some potential and puts a very solid player in the 4. I dont see it happening at all, but hey I didnt think that the peja for ron-ron deal would ever have happened either. I dont see KG wanting to go to SAC and I dont really see the Twolves wanting to put up with Ron all that much.
Yea i agree that would be a stupid move. Artest is just unpredictable Wolves have gotten better offers for KG they would not settle for Artest IMO.
on the other hand... here is an interesting scenario. Its possible to make a trade involving KG without sending artest. From minn: KG Change in team outlook: -1.8 ppg, -4.7 rpg, and -2.1 apg From Sac: Miller, Thomas and Rahim Change in team outlook: +1.8 ppg, +4.7 rpg, and +2.1 apg. RealGM trade ID 4053764. So, would Minny want Miller Thomas and Rahim? its better than having a sulking and unhappy KG on the floor and mixes things up a bit for them.

No way would they want three aging players in Miller, Thomas and Rahim... not even a question..
Kenny Thomas?? Shareef? Brad Miller?? No way. The T-Wolves can look at way better offers than these. Besides, no offense but I don't see KG wanting to come to Sacramento.
That rumor doesn't even suggest the Kings are trying to trade for Garnett. It says if the Wolves decide to keep KG, they may pursue Artest. Besides, the kings don't have enough young talent on their roster to make a move for Garnett.
KG for Artest? Straight up? Not going to happen. I think HG is either going to the Warriors, Lakers or Suns. McHale is going to milk as many prospects as he can out of this, if not, he isn't very smart.
