Quote from: kozlodoev on February 05, 2013, 02:08:32 PMThere's another part of the interview that's way more interesting:QuoteCan this team – as constructed – can compete?"My own personal views on this team, I won't share them," Garnett said. "Management usually makes those decisions on what they feel is best for the organization, and a lot of times the players are just parts, moving, and not decision-making. Danny talks to the key guys here about certain things, and that's cool. He has always given us informative information and been upfront with us. I don't anticipate that changing anytime soon."Yea that has me worries a little bit...

This is why KG's number will be hanging in the rafters, while Benedict Allen's will not.
Asked if he was open to a trade, Garnett said, "I won’t comment on things that haven’t happened."
Do you realise that the no-trade clause has not magically expired since then...?Did you read KG's comments...?Match the two pieces together Sherlock. If that still leaves you believing the no-trade clause is not a huge obstacle to any KG trade (at least as long as Pierce hasn't been traded away) then I guess there's no point to keep talking about this with you
I love the quote from KG. I don't think he's definitively saying he won't accept a trade, though. QuoteAsked if he was open to a trade, Garnett said, "I won’t comment on things that haven’t happened."Now, maybe KG has told Danny point blank "don't trade me, because I won't accept a deal". However, from the quote above, it sounds like if the team tries to deal him, he'll at least listen to the possibilities.
Of course KG's no-trade clause puts KG in the driver's seat with regard to any trade. However, KG is likely a complex individual with multiple values and interests. One of his interests is to remain a Celtic. But I'd imagine he also values championships. I would also guess that he values feeling wanted. If Danny is willing to trade KG and presents the offer to him, KG will weigh competing inerests. It would not surprise me if he were to opt to accept a trade to a conttender. In fact (and nothing to back this up of course), I'd be a little surprised if he would nix a trade if to a legit contender.
Are you informed about last talks between DA and KG? Seem to me you are Danny’s brother or personal legal adviser. Everything can happen. Let suppose KG will like to go to a big contender in order to get the 2nd ring? How about LAC offering him 20 mill/year and more competitive roster for winning championship??? Think over and over man.

I think it could just as easily be the opposite especially when you are talking about a guy like KG
Maybe they stick it out this year and try again next year...If that is the case then Rondo will have to adjust his game and learn how to play off the ball better.
