http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2917781You mis-understood, This three-way deal involving Garnett is just discussion. The Lakers-Timberwolves talks seem to have hitten a snag apparently.

I have been pretty anti-Marion to Boston, but if an extension is agreed upon, I'd welcome the deal.
Until something happens I refuse to think this has any shot of being done. This is about the 34th rumor involving Phoenix in the last month and they all seem to be of the "very serious discussions" variety.

It wasn't even close to this level last off-season. This is insane. What happened to the Marion - Jamison trade rumors.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CB4AllStar @ Jun 26 2007, 08:34 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Would this mean that Minny would get Al Jefferson?</div>From what I have read and heard there has been no mention of him which would lead me to believe one of two things.1. This is just another b.s. rumor that will go away in time or2. KG went to the Wolves front office and told them in private that he wants out and he will opt out next season if they don't trade him.

I'm not sure if Minnesota will pull the trigger without Al Jefferson going there.

I just remembered that marion said he didn't want to go to boston a while back? probalby he wouldnt get the extention
