Garnett's frustration mounts as Timberwolves struggle
By JON KRAWCZYNSKI, AP Sports Writer

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Kevin Garnett has seen some difficult times during his 11 seasons in Minnesota.

From the death of teammate and friend Malik Sealy in 2000, to years of first-round playoff exits, to last season's epic fall from Western Conference finalists to the lottery, the disappointments have been many.

Yet this may be Garnett's most challenging season yet, and as his Timberwolves sink toward missing the playoffs for a second straight year, the former MVP is letting it be known that his patience is wearing thin.

"I don't want to go through this any more," Garnett said after the Wolves squeaked out a win over the lowly New York Knicks on Sunday. "I think I'm more deserving of a better team and I think the city's more deserving of a better team, coming in here having something that's going to be competitive and having us getting back to the Western Conference finals. But I do know you just can't blink and it's going to happen; you have to actually spend the time and effort. So, we'll see."

It seems like Timberwolves' Management, is what is keeping KG in Minni...
The owner is not going to let Garnett go, easily. I think Kevin is going to have to work his way around that contract, somehow. "Where there's a will, there's a way"...

If Mitch, and the Lakers, were smart, they would already be talking to Garnett, and his manager. We should be discussing strategies, and trying to convince Kevin, that he would, practically, be guaranteed a ring, if he became a Laker... Of course, we've all heard that one before!!... :roll:
