Minnesota is reporting that Kandi hasn't been playing because a trade is in the works. They say in 72 hours they can announce something.
The source says Kandi is coming to Boston. I do not have a cell number to a Celtics player however this guy has nailed a few trades before as well. This from a contact he knows.
Sounds like a 3 way deal. Flip Murray is involved, going to Wolves along with Blount while Marcus Banks and another player (probably a T-Wolve) would head to Seattle.
Anyway...as with all this stuff until it's announced who knows but if it were on vBookie...I'd bet it all on this...
Kevin Mchale is officially an idiot. Blount isn't bad per say (except for the turnovers)
but he is overpaid even for a center.
Boston makes out in this deal just getting rid of his contract. Somehow I doubt
this deal would even be taking place if Danny Ainge and Kevin Mchale weren't good friends.
Mchale is one of the few friends Ainge has back from his Celtics days.
Well basically, Blount is not even that productive, Kandi is actually better. As bad as Kandi is, he will still get us rebounds and is still going to give us an expiring contract.
T.K.O.T.W said what I was thinking too... I really don't want us to become the New York Knics of the West.... Please no.
He's a better scorer. But he's a horrible rebounder and turns the ball over all the time. Given those very important factors I'm not sure there's really much of a difference.
alot of players seem to think mark could be a really good player. i remember last year gary payton s aid with himself, mark, pierce and ricky he thought the team could do anything. of course, mark had a horrible year a year ago. i have always been an olowakandi fan jus because he was the #1 pick pretty much and i always thought hed be okay but hes been terrible. Id still prefer his expiring contract to blount on the celtics, but at the same time if Blount is with KG who knows, maybe KGs intensity will somehow rub off on Mark. I think he has the talent to be a solid 15/7 guy but hes a moron and doesnt seeem to care about winning all the time.
That's just an excuse if a player really has the determination and the aggressiveness, he will and he can grab a rebound.
