"]If KG was to be traded to Dallas, outside of Dirk is there anyone you'd be willing to take and be happy with? Any trade situation that could potentially work (no need to check it or anything) and is not a total robbery. I'm just curious on what Minn fans are looking for in return.
Also, what are the Minn's goals? I hear it's to sell tickets, but are they also in rebuilding mode or win in the regular season mode?
Thanks
I think one of the under-lying goals for any trade involving Kevin Garnett is get arid of one of the bad contracts in conjunction with Garnett's. If Dallas was to become a player in the KG sweepstakes Josh Howard has to be involved. They would also have to resign Jerry Stackhouse and put him in the trade as well to make the CBA stips work. Clearly Minnesota would need to acquire draft picks, as well. However, with Mark Cuban on board I have no reason to believe any of the picks acquired would be lottery because his drive to be in the playoffs and win a championship every year.
One possible scenario..
Dallas Receives:
Kevin Garnett
Marco Jaric
Trenton Hassell
Minnesota Receives:
Josh Howard
Erick Dampier
Jerry Stackhouse
Greg Buckner
2 1st-Round picks
