    For one Wolves wont get alot for Kg. No superstar player that is.. They will get like one allstar and role players..Maybe if they traded KG 2years ago they could of got an allstarWith the lakers ofcourse the main player will be odomAnd with bulls... You can do alot... Gordon Deng Pj Sweets Knicks pick noc Tyurs... Im not sayin all of them.. But those are players that will be in the deal.. two of them . Being they have alot of gaurd I dont think gordon will be in it... I would see deng Pj t.thomas knicks pick...I wont hate to see deng go... But if we can get a lineup ofKirkBenNocKgBenWOO

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>He stayed loyal to them when in reality, He should have been gone awhile ago.</div>Eh, he signed the contract, now he has to live with it. I don't really care if he's in a bad situation and not winning a championship. He's not the only one. As for the topic at hand, it would benefit the Wolves to trade him and start rebuilding. Their obviously not doing anything with him. But it's kind of a double edged sword. Rebuilding means 2-3 years of all time low basketball, fan adjustment and also not getting fair value in a KG trade. Keeping KG, their stuck in mediocrity till the day he leaves and then are left to squander and replace him. With that said, Wolves are better off starting the rebuilding stage quicker and actually getting some pieces via Garnett.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (LightsOut @ Nov 18 2006, 01:50 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Jefferson, Kristic, Boone, and a future first?</div>That actually isnt that bad of a trade at all. I would consider doing that if I was minny. But the more that I look at it, I dont know if NJ would want to trade Boone and Kristic even if they would be getting a quality player such as KG in return.Back to topic: KG definitely has to go. With the team he has right now, they arent getting in to the playoffs. They are all selfish players and dont know their roles on the team. I really want to see him get a ring, so he needs to go to a close to title contender, or a title contender obviously.

    He should go to the Suns! That would make me happy, which is all the more reason that he should come to AZ!

Marion, Atlanta pick, James Jones and probably another pick, either ours or Cleveland's but I'd do it for sure. I love Marion but I'd be a lot more comfortable with KG in the playoffs and he wouldn't shoot so many 3's and miss, badly.

Why would you root for a guy against your own team getting a chip? If KG is not a Mav, I could care less if he doesn't win a ring.

Let me know about Kidd in March.And as far as Thorn, all I said about him was he begged ATL not to send Sheed to Detroit, which you can't dispute because it happened.

But who knows how that would all effect the team's chemistry. It would break up the Big 3...but add in a much better player at the same time, one who wants to win badly and would greatly benefit our team.But it's all about the chemistry here...and who knows how it would effect Amare's return?

Especially since JO and "healthy" don't go together well.

Now does that mean that he will get 30 points a game let alone 20? no it doesn't....but he has the skillset and the shooting ability to do so whenever he is on, or on "any given night".

That is why I said, "WHEN HEALTHY", he can fill up the stat sheets. Is he 100 percent healthy right now?? NO....will he ever be 100 percent healthy? I have no clue....but if he does get back to full health, he is a good pg. 2 years ago, he was averaging 16 PPG, 6 APG, 4 RPG, and 2 SPG...and guess what? He was 100 percent healthy then.

If his man scores, he posts him up on the other end. Seriously, I wish the dude would go back to Rucker Park, or to Minnesota.

So he has started off slow this season...he is not going to continue to play this bad. It would be too dramatic of a dropoff from the last few seasons for that to happen. As for Tinsley, I dont need to watch a whole lot of games to know how he plays. Im not saying he is doing well this season, but two years ago when I did see him play a decent amount, he did not play bad what so ever. For every turnover he had, he had at least 2-3 assists which isnt an awful ratio for a PG. Its not great but its not bad by any means. When you have the ball in your hands as much as PG's do, you are bound to have turnovers. Did you ever think that he posts up because he has the size advantage on the opposing PG. He is a very strong PG...

    Re: It's time to trade Kevin Garnett

    Look guys, KG is much better than JO.On a good night here's what they'll get youJO: 22 points 10 rebounds 2 assists 3 blocks 1 stealKG: 22 points 13 rebounds 5 assists 2 blocks 2 stealsThe stats don't tell the whole story, but it's obvious KG is better.Add in that we have:PF - HarringtonSF - GrangerSG - DanielsPG - Armstrong/Sarunas/GreeneWe'd be greatSo would Minnesota:C - BlountPF -JOSF - DavisSG - JacksonPG - Tinsley6 - FoyeJackson is not a great shooter, and has an attitude/off-court problemHe'd probably flourish in a new start (in Minnesota)Tinsley can do whatever he wants to. He will have the high-flying Davis. The "shooter" Steven Jackson. The scorer JO. The role player Blount. And the do-it-all-energy guy Foye.In Indy Garnett would flourish with a great sidekick post player (Harrington), three all-around/athletic/versatile players (Granger and Daniels and Marshall), a couple of shooters/role players/leaders (Armstrong and Sarunas), and a point guard of the future (Orien Greene).This trade would be perfect for both teams. It would be a win-win situation.
