These are 5 trades that I think are plausible for both teams. All except for the Nets are deals I think KG would sign off on.
Minn, he returns back to original team.
Houston,reunites with McHale and plays with Harden, he ans Asik make for great defensive pairing
GS, joins a exciting young team in Cali. Lee and Bogut allow him to rest/ save himself for playoffs
OKC, if westbrook comes back healthy they are a top 4 team in the league and KGs best chance at another ring.



KG to Minn for Williams and Ridnour


KG to houston for Robinson, Brooks and Motiejunas


KG to GS for Biendris, Ezeli and future 1st


KG to OKC for Perkins, Orton , Liggins and #12


KG to Nets for Humphires and 1st

KG would be perfect for the Nets. Make them a bonafide title contender.

Ill add this to the Minn idea

"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" per hoopshype, per yahoo sports

This would make sense for him to go back to Minn then step into the front office after retirement. KG,Love and Pekovic would make a great 3 big rotation.

Personally I don't think all of these are vaible options.  He's not going to Minnesota just to play out the string.  At least not this year.  He suppsoedly has no interest in the Nets either and I don't bleieve he would go to GS.  To me the only realistic options would be the Clippers, Rockets (because of McHale) and the Bulls with a slight change to OK City...

Really like the Houston idea. They have some nice young pieces and Kevin Garnett and Mchale are very close.

I think we hang onto him until once a lot of the big names sign in free agency. I expect there to be a lot of teams left with cap space after they are spurned by Dwight.

I think Houston would be a good partner, because they have cap space and so many young assets. I think Minnesota is a viable option. They had playoff roster last year but they became riddled with injuries. I think if you keep the roster intact (minus Williams and Ridnour or Barea) they are a contending team out west if healthy.

One team that has been mentioned elsewhere is Chicago because of coach Thibbs. What they would be willing to give us remains to be seen. I would even consider taking a big salary if they threw the future Bobcats pick our way.

This makes the most sense to me. A lot of teams are looking to make a move this offseason and only a handful are actually going to be able to land that big name free agent. The GMs that don't end up with a Howard/Smith/Jefferson aren't going to want to settle for lower end free agents. KG has that game changing talent and probably doesn't cost all that much. I think some of the teams that miss out on the big names are going to be interested.

I'm just hoping that the right ones end up missing out. KG is only going to be willing to be traded to a select few teams (if that) so we really need to be rooting that a team like Houston comes up empty handed or a team like Chicago can't move Boozer and are looking to deal.

With KG a lot of things are going to have to fall into place for it to work out.

Houston reportedly plans on going after the big free agents.  Dwight Howard seems to be plan A and Josh Smith seems to be Plan B.  Dallas is probably doing the same.  Pierce and/or Garnett would make sense for both teams as a Plan C that preserves a salary slot for minimal assets and gives the team a chance to chase after a big-time player again in 2014.

Houston. T-Rob, Brooks, and Demo is an outright steal for us if we could get that done. Screw the Clippers!

Didn't Brooks already get released by the Rockets?

Humphries isn't perfect for us though, no way we make this deal.
