If The Wolves Don't Improve, Garnett Wants Out
9th August, 2006 - 7:38 pm
Slam Magazine - In a recent Q&A session with Slam Magazine, Kevin Garnett
stated he'd like to see management make more player acquisitions and hinted
at the possibility of leaving Minnesota if the team doesn't improve.

Regarding the moves management made so far, Garnett said, "I feel like
getting Mike James was a start, but that's not enough. We need some more
solid players to contribute..."

When asked if he'd want to leave Minnesota if the team didn't improve,
Garnett said, "I got to...If you're not working towards a championship, then
why are we in this? I'm in it to win, man, I'm not in it to be coming back
talking about next year. I'm 30. I've probably got 4 to 5 years, you know
what I'm saying? My clock is ticking, man. I'm almost like a woman who's
trying to get pregnant. My years are limited, so my clock is definitely
ticking."

Same story we've read for the past 3 years. I wish KG would actually
get serious with his threats. Maybe then Taylor would go out and get
someone capable of running the team.

This McHale thing is bloody absurd. I've been calling for his head so
long that I've lost my voice. Hell, even Krush doesn't defend him
anymore.

James will prove to be one of the best free agent acquisitions and Foye
will be one of the best rookies. Nothing absurd about those two moves.


One move that is turning out to be a blunder was McHale's assumption
that he could build around KG. Bad move. KG is a great complimentary
player, not a "number one go to guy."

KG can make all the threats he wants, it won't do a thing. He's not
good enough to garner enough in return in trade, and he'll have to sign
for a lot less if he wants to leave when his contract is up.

Besides, KG is only stating the obvious.

We've wondered aloud here if the Wolves management is actually
interested in vying for a championship or just trying to be good
enough to keep enough butts in the seats to keep the team afloat
until Taylor can make a big profit selling the team, be a BMOC,
or whatever.

My advice is "Don't drink any McHale Kool Aid."
