Hammering out KG deal

Talks between Minnesota and Golden State about a trade that would send Kevin Garnett to the Bay Area are real and advanced, according to a person involved in the discussions. But it's too early to say whether No. 8 pick Brandan Wright, reigning "most improved player" Monta Ellis and an assortment of fat and/or expiring contracts will be enough. Wright can't be traded for 30 days because he signed his rookie contract Friday ... Isiah Thomas so far is refusing to include David Lee in a Ron Artest trade. "No chance," a person with knowledge of the situation said ... Derek Fisher's interest in playing for the Knicks so he can be close to the best care for his infant daughter, who has a rare form of eye cancer, is not necessarily shared by the Knicks. The Lakers are a more realistic suitor.

Just include that Biedrins cat in that deal and be done with it.... I'm fine with GS gettin KG as long as the Suns or Lakers don't... I also don't want to see Dallas do something dumb just so the Suns won't get him... Biedrins+Ellis+Wright+salary dumps sounds like something Minny would take.

One of Kevin Garnett's closest friends on the Timberwolves said the face of the franchise doesn't want to play anywhere else. Guard Rashad McCants has heard all the trade rumors and speculation about Garnett but doesn't buy it. "We really try not to talk about basketball when we're around each other," McCants said Sunday. "It's a friendship. We try to leave that on-court stuff out of the way. But we talked about it a couple of times, scenarios and places. There's no other place he wants to be. When you're a king in your own kingdom, why would you want to go somewhere else?" St. Paul Pioneer Press

Can't say I'm suprised...

LMFAO@if Minnesota takes that over Odom+Bynum.

They don't like Odom's age and contract, what don't you understand? They want young players and expiring contracts. Odom doesn't fit in there. End of story. Stop acting as if Bynum was a certified soon-to-be All-Star. Even Kobe said he's pretty average, and that he wanted his fucking ass shipped out. Even Phil criticized his work ethic. Also, a KG and Kobe combo could be too good, so it shouldn't be done. (From McHale's valid prespective)

sorry NIK but if Im Minny, I would easily take the GS trade over the LA trade, its even close imo

I love Biedrins. He's just 1 year older than Bynum, and he's a better defender and intimidator.
Ellis is a good scorer. I don't really like him, but he can score, no doubt.
Wright is a good prospect.

That's a nice offer.

Odom is by far better than any player in the GS deal...And he's still just approaching his prime years. McHale is a dumbass for not liking his contract...Kobe never called Bynum average, he said he didn't wanna wait 10 years for him to develop. Still, he'd of been a top 3 pick in this years draft, no question. McHale is a fucking dumbass douchebag, and if you think GS's offer is better, then you'd make a horrible GM as well...PeACe

LOL

Both Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum hold more value than any player in GS's offer...

^^I disagree.  I dont think u understand how fuckin awesome Biedrins is.


Biedrins, Ellis, Wright>>>>Odom, Bynum

Biedrins is nice, but by the second half of the season, his minutes and production started drastically decreasing...Bynum is still the much greater prospect, and Odom is unquestionably currently much better overall...PeACe

i agree with NIK, in Odom you get an all star caliber player who still has some prime left and will get you more than either ellis, wright, or biedrinis. period. then you get bynum which gives you a big body in the middle. you get rid of KG's contract, and obtain a smaller odom contract. also you make more $ with odom then you would either ellis, wright, or beidrinis from crowd draw and merch.

i was in las vegas yesterday at the thomas and mack center watchin a couple summer league games. word is that wright is not going to participate for the W's in any games cause they dont want nothing to happen to him so the W's can ship him off the Wolves. Looks like this is pretty much a done deal
