Just guessing but worse case Curry may have something like Wolf Parkinson White syndrome like Rebraca that is surgically correctable.
The attendance will go down anyway if they start under-performing or if KG starts being a malcontent.
Edit: and BTW, their attendance is going down.

I hope so. We'll have to wait an see what happens with him.
Is there a cure for his "7 foot 300lber that can't rebound" problem?
I would trade KG, for a combo fo Chandler, Heinrich, and whatever else.
Chicago gets a serious Superstar since Mj,
minnesota rebuilds on the fly with good young talent.
A lot of teams get stuck in short term, just hang on, next year thinking and never get out of a rut. If you have the balls and ability and there's little hope of being more than at best mediocre, you blow the team up, take a year or two hit in sales, get some great draft choices, young talent and renew the interest by people seeing young players grow. That' unless you have a front office that makes decisions like Chicago did after the MJ era.
Well, I'm happy they didn't make it, I knew they would not be a factor this year for a championship but I thought they would make the playoffs for sure, maybe a 4 or 5 seed, this was just a catastrophe, I think KG should have slapped sprewell and Cassell instead of that rookie last summer. Obviously heads are going to roll, look for deals, firings, and a strong effort to keep KG a Wolve. I agree with Whott that KG may start looking for greener pastures. There really isn't anyone out there you can trade this guy straight up. And no matter what kind of package deal, it won't make up for his talent level. But Milwaukee traded a still young Jabber, O'Neal got traded and that's just two that come to mind. I'm just looking forward to seeing KG with the TNT crew, but the way things are going for him this year, he will probably wind up with the ESPN clowns, sheesh.
You certainly aren't going to build around Chandler and Heinrich. If they do that, they'll have to suck for a while, get some high draft picks, develop talent, and hope to be a decent team six years from now. Just like the Bulls. Top free agents won't be banging down the door to play in Minnesota. It's like San Antonio...if you get a superstar, you've got to hold on to him or get something valuable in return. If Minny can't trade KG for another young star, they'll have to rely on the draft. That's a risky proposition.
Same as for 6' 5" undersized PFs.
Maybe KG will decide he wants to be a Spur
Malik>Curry(better rebounder too)Same s for 6' 5" undersized PFs.
Malik > KG ? Admit it, Whottt.
Malik 2 rings KG 0
Malik>KG
Malik can also lead a team to the lottery, just like KG.
But KG would be a halfway decent consolation prize for losing Malik.
Dwight Howard is going to be an absoluute stud. If you were Orlando would you trade Howard and maybe some baggage like Francis, +/- their first round pick for KG? If you were Orlando would you make that trade?
If I was Orlando I would make that freaking trade...I don't know that I would if I was Minnesota...mainly because Francis is the exact same type of dumb pain in the ass that messed up the TWolves this season...and in others.
Yeah I would.
I guess it depends what they would need to give up and who else they could come up with. It would be great to trade for Garnett if they could retain/obtain some quality talent to play with him. But they aren't going to win a championship with Garnett and eleven scrubs. So if getting Garnett means cleaning house, I probably wouldn't do it. If they are confident in their ability to trade for KG and retain talent and acquire talent through free agency, it would be a good move.
There's only one team in the NBA that doesn't trade everything they have to get Garnett...and that's us. I think even the Heat would trade for him(after this season of course).
t-pups and fakers
The Pistons? No way.
The Suns? No way.
That's amazing--both of 2004's western conference finalists will be watching from the outside this year.
Brodels...you left out Cleveland...
But I mean look at it realistically...working under the current CBA what team wouldn't give up their two best players or equivalency in contracts this offseason for Garnett?
I could see the Heat doing it...because Wade isn't enough to win a le on his own and Shaq's end is drawing near...on top of that he wants 30 million a season.
Phoenix?
I am sorry but I would trade Nash and Marion or Amare for KG in a heartbeat.
You yourself said that there really isn't a way to get equal value for Garnett...
Would you trade Kobe for KG? Or an unhappy Lebron?
Ben or Rasheed Wallace and Billups or Hamilton? Or a combination of 3? I bet Dumars would do it.

Yup that is definitely something to ponder about. Kinda funny too.
I think there are several teams that wouldn't trade their two best players for Garnett. San Antonio, Phoenix, Cleveland, Detroit, Miami, and Houston come to mind. Possibly the Lakers, too.
Would I personally? I probably would trade KG for Kobe. I probably would trade Lebron for KG if there was a high risk of Lebron bolting after his contract expired. But what I would do and what I think NBA GMs would do are two different things.
I can't see Phoenix giving up the probable league MVP and a budding superstar (who is a big man to boot) for Garnett.
