If The Wolves Don't Improve, Garnett Wants Out

I could see him taking less money to be on ANY championship caliber team. I would think getting a ring is worth more than chump change to this guy.

Agreed. Garnett is a team player, it's just unfortunate that he hasn't had much help throughout his career.

I wouldn't want any of the crap that currently resides on the Lakers roster.

I could see him in Chicago for a couple of their young players plus some draft picks, like say, the gem they'll be getting from the Knicks next season.

I always thought that the Bulls could make the bst offer for KG. The Wolves need to make a decision (capt. obvious) betwen KG and rebuilding. If they could get 3 good young players and a couple of good draft picks they could begin life AKG... I even think the fans would understand both sides on this one.. I do feel for KG as well..I like him quite a bit more than no ski..

How sure are you of this?

If he opts out of his contract next summer, he would be walking away from $46 million guaranteed over the next two years.

Any championship caliber team is likely over the salary cap. The likeliest scenerio to sign with a championship caliber team would be signing for the MLE. So, you're saying approximately $33-35 million is "chump change?"

Even for KG, that's not chump change. You really think KG would take that much less to be on a contender?

If KG wants out, it would most likely be in a trade, and if it's a trade, KG is not taking less money. His contract is just traded to the other team and he'll make the same amount.
