    They wouldn't be stupid enough to give him to LA, so where will he go? I'd keep him he's arguably the best player in the league.

    My guess is they'd want to send him to the East to a team with a ton of young talent. Maybe the Bulls or Celtics.

    I think the most likely trade for KG would be a Jason Kidd package. The T'Wolves were hungry for Kidd to play alongside KG last season (and probably always), but I imagine they would be willing to swap, since New Jersey has comparably freakishly-good-at-his-position players and both are teams who may need to rebuild if things don't start clicking. I think if NJ has another sub-par start, Kidd will return to his pescimistic ways and want to bolt. Then again, I don't think that kind of start will happen. But, I wouldn't say it's the stupidest trade idea ever...

    Minnesota has really stuck themselves in a tough spot. They can't improve all that much with what they have right now, but they can't totally blow up the team by trading KG and rebuild. They're just gonna have to hope that a guy like Wally or Jaric becomes a sidekick for KG, but that prolly isn't gonna happen. Things are gonna be tough for the Wolves this year. Maybe they should just trade him and get it over with, start the rebuilding.

    What if they traded KG for another guy who's been mentioned in trade talks a lot this summer...Paul Pierce. They could go Pierce and Al Jefferson for KG. What about that?

    I really love the idea of Garnett in Boston, but I don't think that would bode well with LaFrentz and the other group of young forwards waiting to play up in New England.

    Now in Minnesota, Pierce would almost automatically get the starting spot, leaving other capable and promising guys like Hassel, Sprewell (FA), Hudson, and McCants (oh, how I love this guy) to fight over backup roles and the 2. Jefferson can easily take over for Garnett with minimal difficulty, but I don't see this deal going through, period.

    KG needs to go somewhere with a capable team because these guys arent getting it done for him.

    KG should leave ASAP, I don't know why he would stay in that failure of a team i mean he obviously reached out to the team and even cried on television but nothing happened and so far the 102 sigs are showing a lack of support for him so i say he should move on because he doesn't have much time left even though he's only 29.

    KG will be 30 at the end of this season, meaning that it we wants to be traded , he better do it soon , or else he's going to play for another team while he's in the twilight of his career

    we're talking about Kevin Garnett here

    " I don't think that would bode well with LaFrentz and the other group of young forwards waiting to play up in New England."

    Wow, that's a good idea. Don't trade for Kevin Garnett, I mean you wouldn't want to risk hurting RAEF LAFRENTZ's feelings.
    I'm amazed that the Heat traded for Shaq when they already had Michael Doleac.

    ^^ Disagree. You see this man's intensity? He wants a championship so bad I wouldn't be surprised if he did leave his original team. I mean, he's been there damn near 11 years and they haven't done a good enough job to build a championship team around him. It's kind of like with AI, but at least the Sixers were TRYING to surround him with a sidekick.

    Oh yea, did you see how many losers signed as if they were NBA players? They're comments are hilarious too.

    I don't think Minnesota will trade him.
