Katz Sitting On KG Rumor? June 28, 2007 - 6:24 pm RealGM -
Andrew Perna of RealGM is reporting that ESPN's Andy Katz just received a phone call from an NBA executive, regarding a blockbuster deal. Katz repeatedly said the words "I won't say anything until later." The name Kevin Garnett was mentioned several times.

We're hoping to figure out the details before it's announced.

Yes! It's a 3-way with the Suns and Toronto!

No wait. Not Toronto... Charlotte!

Wait. Now it's Atlanta!

Oh. False Alarm.

Why does the story of the boy who cried "wolf" keep coming to mind when discussing the "Wolves"? :D

Like anyone cashing checks from Bristol could keep from breaking a story.

This is the ultimate in post-modern journalism: Someone reporting a reporter for another network is going to break a story.

Some kid prank calls Andy and says....

"Hi, I am an NBA Executive. Kevin Garnett is going to be traded."

At this point I'm hoping for no KG trade at all just so its a guarantee we could look forward to future Amare highlight reels IN A SUNS uni. People seem to forget that he started out really slow and then gradually got into shape. Just think about what he's gonna do next season. Next victim: Oden

How can Katz say "I won't say anything until later", and yet the name Kevin Garnett kept coming up? That's weird.

It was a bunch of the prank callers friends in the background chanting "Kevin Garnett".

Unfortunately guys he is going to Boston. A poster who claimed this blockbuster deal would happen before it was even posted on realGM has stated that KG is going to Boston. Ainge is willing to take on KG without an extension as well. Makes some sense since Paul Pierce has been threatening them to trade him unless they bring in veteran talent. And nobody can beat their offer of Jeffers+#5 pick.

to be honest, I'd be fine with that - it still gives KG to realize the Celts aren't the Suns, he doesn't go to the Lakers and we still have a chance to sign him next year at the MLE when he inevitably leaves Boston.

I aslo think it makes the East better, thus improving the NBA overall, which it needs. As long as he doesn't go to LA/We don't give up Amare, I could care less where he goes.

Ainge has continually said that he would not give up Jefferson. Why would he give him up in the first place and secondly why would he trade away the #5 pick (what a waste of a trip to AZ if he knew he was going to trade away the pick)??
