Garnett can't "force" a trade to LA. He doesn't have a no-trade clause in his contract. He had a trade-kicker, but the new CBA did away with those. So if he gets traded, McHale will trade him wherever he damn well pleases, which will probably be an Eastern Team like the Bulls for several reasons, the more obvious being:

1) The Bulls can offer multiple YOUNG, TALENTED players (Deng, Nocioni, Ben Gordon, Duhon), not just one talented player (Odom, who is 28 ) and garbage (whatever combo of Slava, Luke, George, Mckie, Miami pick)

2) McHale is not gonna give Garnett to a western team and watch Garnett beat up his wolves in the playoffs on the way to a ring for Garnett.

Why is it that everytime someone posts some KG idea, they seem to think they're the first person to come up with a great idea? Everyone would make this trade, except Minnesota. Come on. This is ridiculous.


I never said it was a great idea. Just wanted to know what everyone thought about the likleyhood of it happening. Obviously, everyone thinks zero which is fine.

As long as McHale is there, a trade seems unlikely.

I think it's less than zero... But everyone can dream...
