The C's can pick him up cheap as Minnesota is basically paying him for 1-2 years I beleive. Nice deal

I think people underestimate how much of an impact that Garnett has on
his teammates. I don't think we'll have trouble with anybody on the
team dogging it this year, KG just won't allow it. I can't wait for
the season to start.
