Chad Ford Rumor: Jefferson et al for Garnett

[Berry, Mark S]

KG is 31 with a ton of miles on him. He just put up career best stats on
a team that missed the playoffs -- again. You don't mortgage everything
for a 31-year-old second banana.

KG just averaged stats near his career best, 22+ points and almost 13
rebounds a gameto along with almost two blocked shots. He's a hall of
fame type player. You get thoseguys when you get the chance....the deal
may need some tweaking, and it would be niceto keep something back, but
I'm really surprised at how down on this deal everybody is.I'd rather
have KG than Kobe any day. ----- Original Message -----From: Troy Hash
