Well I don't agree with you on this one. KMart and KVH actually is a good tandem if KVH is consistent. KMart plays PF and KVH at SF offensively and the reversed roles defensively. KVH is athletic enough to run and is a very good rebounder if his mind is on, besides KVH could really shoot the lights out if, again, his mind is on, which of course is a rarity...Originally posted by jericho
Second, while I like both Van Horn and Martin well enough, I don't like them together. I think they're both power forwards and need a certain mix of players around them to be effective, especially Van Horn. Given Keith's strengths and limitations, he needs to be playing next to a rebounding, athletic small forward like Shawn Marion.
It's not a big trade rumor. Minnesota just said that's what it would take for the Nets to get KG. The two teams haven't even discussed it yet:no: .Originally posted by Tom
Kevin Garnett for Keith Van Horn, Kenyon Martin and Kerry Kittles. What do you think?

Minnesota would get a great deal!
So do John Stockton, Donyell Marshall, and Andre Kirilenko(all average players) equal Antonio Davis or some other star? The T-wolves had a bright future but can never get out of the first round. Why not try to trade Garnett?Originally posted by JoeF
Why?
KG is ranked by the same site you got your number from as #21 player in the entire NBA. I don't know how they got that number because he is definitely a top 5 player in the NBA. Kerry Kittles is ranked as 173 best, Kenyon Martin is 171 (also way low) and Keith Van Horn is ranked as the 146. That means that the three players going to Minnesota are average players. Three average players doesn't equal 1 Superstar. If it did NJ would have easily beat the Lakers.
It is a great deal if Minnesota wants to in the Lottery for the next 10 years. Remember they lose several picks over the next few years so you would blow up the team now and have very few picks to rebuild with. Would you rather give up a pick in the lottery or in the 20s? If they trade KG they must get a player equal of KG i.e. Kidd. If they are going to blow it up and start over you better find a team willing to give up lottery picks over the next three to four years.
