KG as talks dragged on grew less interested in joining the Clippers

[j804]

As the Celtics-Clippers discussions dragged on, Garnett – who had to waive his no-trade clause – had become increasingly less interested in making the move to the Clippers, sources said.

Garnett has two years, $24.4 million left on his Celtics deal, but there's a growing belief that he'll play one more season before retiring and joining his old coach, Flip Saunders, with a ceremonial role in Minnesota Timberwolves ownership, league sources told Y! Sports.

I love KG talk about loyalty.

He better start opening his mind up to joining other teams.

If he's going to go back to Minnesota after his career would it make sense to trade him there? I bet they would be pretty good with KG

Or? lol

Funny how this is kind of the opposite of the CP3 situation.

CP3 is threatening to break up the team.

KG is threatening to keep the team together  .

I'd be happy with keeping him as a mentor to the youngins on our scrappy lotto team.  Good bridge to the future and keeps the culture alive for the next generation.


I'm not reading too much into the "sources said" thing, though.  NOw that Doc is with the Clippers, I'm sure KG would happily go to the Clippers than contribute for a 25 win Celtic team.

Let's move Pierce and see how KG reacts.
