Garnett

Although there has been no official announcement, the KG-to-Boston trade is done. There are conflicting reports on who the Celtics will ship to Minnesota. Al Jefferson, Theo Ratliff, Gerald Green, Sebastian Telfair -- as well as two first round picks -- are considered locks to be new members of the Timberwolves. Ryan Gomes has also been mentioned as a candidate to be traded. Also, the NBA rumor site Hoopsworld is reporting that Garnett and the Celtics have agreed to a 3-year, $60 million extension that would kick in after the 2007-08 season. That would guarantee the Celtics have more than one shot at the title with Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. With this move, the Celtics are contenders again and the NBA will actually mean something in the northeast.
