Is KG Serious about Winning?

hrmm heard the rumours of ai and webb possibly being traded.. i dont think that minnesota has the pieces to be able to trade for ai tho.. perhaps they would need a 3rd team involved with some sucker GM (isaiah thomas im talking about u haha)
 
Poor Isiah....everyone picks on him LOL...perhaps AI could go to NY to play with Marbury, Francis and Jamal Crawford?

perhaps a team of shoot first shooting guards?!
 
yeah I agree Webber and AI will stay in Philly.....I think they need to use iggy allot more on the of offensive end and let him go to work...maybe they would of been in this years playoffs......hey what ever happened to Sprewell? (I know off the topic)

Sprewell, being an older player, didn't realise getting greedy would screw him over... Minny said no thanks yer a cancer and everyone else agreed....

that, my friend, is what happened.
 
sprewell refused to play for anyone as the league minimum for a vet of his experience was beneath him...gee Id love to turn down a cool million!
 
man what an idiot.....you should be playing the game for the love...not for what it provides...they get millions and millions over the years...you thinkkkk you would be set for life lol....god if i were in the NBA and i got paid $100,000 for 1 season to play less than 30 seconds a game id be happy lol

I never said any of those players would out-rebound that frontline. I said that those players would still get boards against that frontline, as there will be a lot of defensive rebounds around for someone to get.

Only the 2 Wallaces would get close to out-rebounding that line, and only with Tayshaun & McDyess to help. And note, I said, 'get close', and not do it.
 
it's being talked about again:
Minny would welcome return

DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER

Isiah Thomas already has a prospective taker for Stephon Marbury.
Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune on Wednesday that his team is interested in acquiring Marbury, whom Minnesota drafted 10 years ago and traded to the Nets in 1999. However, Taylor admitted that Marbury's contract - he'll earn $60 million over the next three seasons - is a major stumbling block.

"Yeah, it isn't that we couldn't use somebody like that. We certainly could with his experience, and we know him," Taylor told the newspaper. "It's that he was signed at a salary that's going to cause us problems. So it would be difficult, it would have to be one of those things where New York would have to say that they really want to get rid of the player and could help us in some financial way to do it. We wouldn't know until this summer if that would even be a possibility."

The Knicks can give Minnesota a maximum of $3 million as compensation for Marbury. The only other way for the Knicks to provide salary cap relief is to take back long-term contracts.

If the Wolves decides to keep Kevin Garnett, they will attempt to add veteran players like Marbury in order to placate their franchise player. Last month, both Garnett and Marbury said they are amicable to a reunion; Marbury wants Garnett to join him in New York, while Garnett wants his one-time teammate to return to the Twin Cities.

According to several team sources, Isiah Thomas is committed to trading Marbury, whose skills have diminished while his reputation as a malcontent has grown appreciably.

However, Marbury's trade value never has been lower; he is showing signs of breaking down and he is a point guard who makes his teammate bitter, not better. Another possibility is Allen Iverson, a player Thomas long had admired. The Sixers likely will shop him this summer.

The Knicks may have to take back a number of players in order to rid themselves of Marbury. The Houston Rockets could potentially put together a package featuring Rafer Alston and others. The Clippers, who could lose Sam Cassell to free agency, also may be interested.

If Starbury has the right team next year, mark my words he will be back to Starbury, not Stephon Marbury. He has such great ability to be a 22 ppg, 8 apg guy and I know everyone calls him selfish etc but that's how he plays best so I'll leave him at it.
 
i disagree.. marbury is a cancer.. look how he talks/treats one of the greatest coaches in history.. and brown coached iverson.. marbury isnt iverson, but still he is very very greedy and a show pony.. his attitude stinks.. but then again, i'd like to see the wolves struggle.. take him in, that way more chance of k.g leaving to a team with $$ .. hello chicago
 
I just really wanna see KG play in the NBA Finals one day.....if that means going to the East then so be it, i agree i think the Bulls would be a great fit for him there
 
when you think about it, he would be a great fit to their team..the bulls dont have a real great great super star....and i think for the Bulls to go to the next level, they need a guy like KG..bulls will be very nice with him in the lineup

to get KG the bulls would have to give up some major scratch, either gordon, deng or chandler to begin with...

Either?? Trey, it'd be all 3 to begin with, then chuck in at least another 3-4 players. Not sure about salary, but if you talk about player value I wouldn't give up KG unless I was getting another all-nba calibre player and a few others.
