Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

Also its not the Celtics decision, your point is absolutely stupid. Try to make some sense. Great so the Celtics would just trade Ratliff, Gomes and #5 straight up for Marion. You guys don't decide what the Suns do with your parts, its OUR decision to involve a third team and send all that plus Thomas and more picks to Minnesota.

It is the Celtics decision; however, to decide to get involved in the trade and the Suns cannot offer the Celtics' players or selections to the Timberwolves without the Celtics' consent, as it violates the tampering laws of the CBA. Unless the Suns plan on waiting two months and then trading the former Celtics players, they would have to disclose intentions of transforming an agreement into a three-team deal.

Also, since Garnett does not have a no trade [edit, mistype] clause in his contract, he could not block a trade to Boston. So, Boston could offer Theo Ratliff, Al Jefferson, Sebastian Telfair, Delonte West, Gerald Green, and multiple draft picks including the fifth selection for Garnett. Would the Timberwolves rather trade Garnett within their own conference or would McHale rather trade him to an Eastern Conference team if the deals are comparable? My guess is that McHale would elect to choose the latter option.

Personally, I don't think either team will trade for Garnett, but do not assume teams are more willing to trade players to Phoenix than other teams.

Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

KG doesn't need a trade kicker, you know for a fact that the Wolves will respect his trade wishes and you also know for a fact that no team will trade for KG if he doesn't want to go there as he can opt out after next season.

My guess is that McHale would just rather do the best trade for the Wolves and KG, he could care less if KG went to a contender in the West, he knows the Wolves won't contend for as long as KG will keep playing anyway. They will be in complete rebuilding mode.

Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

this would be between two of the worst gms in the league conducting a major deal that could change the face of a whole conference. I doubt this is true.

Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

Pierce would be the best sidekick KG has ever had. They would win the Atlantic together. Until Garnett publically states which teams he would like to go to, your point is irrelevant.

Yup. For the same reasons everyone chastised Ainge for helping the Pistons in the Rasheed deal.

We have the advantage of being 1: an EC team 2: a team with tradeable salaries 3: a team with tradeable players. Just by that, the field is narrowed down to about 3-4 teams.

IF we can somehow swing a couple of the deals I've been hearing about like AJ, Danny's Kids, and salary for Garnett, and the #5 for the 12 and Josh Smith I would be very impressed. This team needs a boot in the rear beyond strong words from our backup center.

Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

#1AWF, that deal does not work under the CBA. The Celtics would have to send out more salary [Szczerbiak, a player that Minnesota would not trade for] or they would need to involve a third team.

Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

Give me Jefferson + #5 and you can throw whatever else you want at me. Except Wally.

Re: Garnett to Boston rumor

Minnesota spent two years trying to trade Wally. They are not going to trade for him.
