    I don't know if anyone ha posted this one yet,but i just read it on realgm.com!Sam Smith wrote an article aout Garnett leaving the Wolves after their first round loss to Dallas!He says maybe they trade him to Milwaukee for Ray Allen,Tim Thomas and Anthony Mason/Jason Caffey!Man,that would be awesome for Milwaukee!
    New Lineup for Them:
    C-Draft Pick??
    F-Garnett
    F-Robinson
    G-Redd
    G-Cassell

    lay off the !'s and trading:

    *ray allen
    *tim thomas
    *anthony mason
    *Jason Caffey

    is pretty ludicrous IMO. Ray Allen is their bread and butter. The ones they should think about trading first is Big Dog and then maybe..just maybe... Cassell.

    Chances of that trade happening are zero to nothing

    The trade looks alright to me. Ray Allen and Tim Thomas is a lot to give up. But, this is Kevin Garnett. And those two look a lot less valuable when your team doesn't even make the playoffs. Milwaukee has two problems: (1) Defense (2) too much of their talent is weighted in the backcourt. Garnett would solve both of those issues.

    It may be good idea for Minn as well because their biggest hump has been an inability to give Garnett enough good players to work with. In this trade, they would get three very serviceable players to spread their talent on the floor a bit.

    milwaukee will have to give up a LOT more than that. think in terms of:

    *Robinson
    *Cassell
    *Thomas
    and a draft pick

    the thing about Minnesota is that i don't think they would do this. if you can't get past the 1st round in the playoffs w/ a top 5 PF how can you survive with a top 5 SG in the west? west is all about big men (as you already know). they want to get farther than the 1st round and i dont' think ray allen can do that. and milwaukee would probably rather trade robinson and cassell than to trade allen. you put KG and allen together you have a lineup that will get you places in the East

    McHale went to Minnesota...Pryzbilla played collegiately at Minnesota... I could see the TWolves trying to add him into a proposed trade.

    I'm probably in a minority, but I see the TWolves wanting Cassell more than Ray Allen. Allen has 3 more years for $40.5m. Were as Cassell's lower salary makes it easier the get Pryzbilla or Earvin Johnson added to the trade.

    Plus Wally World plays alot of SG and at this point there is no guarantee Terrell Brandon can make it back from surgery.

    I don't think Przybilla is very well liked in Minnesota. Wasn't the draft when we picked him for Milwaukee in Minnesota that year? It seems like he got booed.

    I think a Sczerbiak and Terrel Brandon + filler for Ray allen would be fair. Move Brandon to PG .. Sam I am to the 2 gaurd. Sczerbiak at the 3 and Big Dog and Pryz as front courts. With Tim THomas off the bench.

    And for Minnesota Garnett+Allen would be a duo to kill for that will finally help get Minnesota out of the first round.

    This trade seems like it can be very bennificiary for both teams.

    Milwaukee would literally laugh at that trade, and so would any other GM who has not lost his mind. Ray Allen is a top five shooting guard and the Bucks can do much better then Wally "Ball hog" Sczerbiak and a pg who might never be the same again.

    Trading Ray Allen is probably the last thing the Bucks are thinking about. They need to move Tim Thomas or Glenn Robinson and get some frontcourt help.

    I think you've got a good point about Allen and Szczerbiak being redundent at SG. Somehow swapping out Terrell Brandon for a PG that doesn't get injured right before the playoffs (Cassell) would be a good idea if Garnett is still around. But, if you trade Garnett, you're rebuilding and Cassell isn't needed.

    Vince Carter's name could get thrown around too.

    at carter for garnett? that would suck for minnesota. minnesota don't have bangers like toronto. garnett will flourish but carter won't get out alive in the west

    You are correct. Przybilla was suspended from the Gophers after repeatedly skipping classes. Rather than serve his suspension and start going to class, he quit on his teammates in the middle of the season.

    Well Sczerbiak is doing a lot better since the T-Wolves have moved him from the 3 to a 2, but i guess if they got Cassel that would be the best thing for them to do is move him to 3. But i see this trade going nowhere, i dont think Garnett will be going anywhere anytime soon.

    If Garnett is not going anywhere then Sczerbiak is for sure. This T-wolve team has been eliminated in the first round of the playoffs for the 4th straight year or something like that. Something Needs to be changed. Change will be good for this team.

    I agree with Asian that they are going to make some changes this offseason!This is for sure!Kevin Garnett,Wally Szczerbiak or Terrell Brando WILL leave Minnesota!And it isn't so unrealistic that the Bucks aren't interested in a trade for Garnett and perhaps for Wally!They need some changes,too!!!!

    Another Trade:
    Szczerbiak,Jackson,Garnett to Milwaukee

    FOR

    Allen,Mason,Thomas,Ham,1st Round Pick,Future 1st Round Pick

    New Bucks Lineup:
    C-Jackson
    F-Garnett
    F-Robinson
    G-Szczerbiak
    G-Cassell


    New Wolves Lineup:
    C-Mason
    F-Smith
    F-Thomas
    G-Allen
    G-Brandon

    In the west it would more then SUCK. It would be almost comical. Minny does need some changes though. I dont think they are going to trade Garnett. Scherbiatch probably will be traded though.

    Ok,Minny's Team would really Suck in The West,but the Bucks team would win the east!When the are trading Garnett i assume that they get some players and a good C in return!
