Kevin Garnett NBA Trade Rumors

Could KG be traded from Minnesota?

Jan 28, 2007 Mark Barnes

NBA trade rumors are heating up with big names like Kevin Garnett, Pau Gasol and Andre Miller rumored to be switching teams.

NBA trade rumors are often nothing more than speculation from the media, to get NBA fans talking. The latest NBA trade talk involving Minnesota’s franchise player, Kevin Garnett, may be far more speculation than fact.

What got the Garnett NBA trade rumors going is the idea that this struggling team would be better off unloading the superstar while he’s still super and starting over with younger core players.

For his part, Kevin Garnett thinks NBA trade rumors about him are just that. He has said he wants to remain in Minnesota, and he’s been very critical of analysts, saying Garnett should or could be traded.

Currently, it is uncertain if the Timberwolves are entertaining trade offers for Garnett. If this NBA trade rumor becomes reality, it would be a true blockbuster – even bigger than the Allen Iverson deal.

Paul Gasol NBA Trade Rumors

It is beginning to look a lot more like a fact and less of an NBA trade rumor that Memphis will move Pau Gasol.

Not only has Gasol been seen moping on the basketball court lately, he has openly complained about his situation and suggested that being traded might be best.

The hottest new NBA trade rumor involving Gasol has him headed to the Celtics. Reports from Boston say the club has asked about the price for Gasol, leaving many to wonder why the Celtics would want to improve their chances of winning, lowering their chances at getting the top pick in the draft – certain rights to Ohio State star Greg Oden.

Andre Miller NBA Trade Rumors

The Philadelphia 76ers were recently in Cleveland, and Philly’s new point guard, Andre Miller, was asked about trade rumors that have him being shipped, a second time in one season, to Cleveland.

Miller played it cool, saying he has no information about a possible trade to Cleveland and that he is just trying to fit into the 76ers’ lineup.

When asked about Miller by the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown said, "Andre’s a guy who can deliver the basketball."

Miller could certainly upgrade the Cavaliers, where they need the most help. Current point guard Eric Snow offers no scoring punch and often looks like he’s playing in slow motion.

For now, though, this deal is still just an NBA trade rumor.
