Clippers should target KG in offseason

[2Mas]

You guys are nuts.. KG is not going anywhere? He's as loyal as they come.

And that's how he left Minnesota to Boston right?

If you really think he left Minny for Boston & didn't cry on camera cause he didn't wanna quit on Minny & refused to demand a trade & then Kevin McHale himself had to tell it to KG's face that there not building around him anymore their gonna blow it all up & you're not in the future plans so pick where you'd like to go out of there 5 teams.

Yeah that pretty much shows how KG is AS LOYAL AS THEY COME. You wouldn't know anything about that though because you're longest tenured player is D. Jordan.

No offense other clip fans but the fact you say KG isn't loyal just shows that you know nothing. SMH!

Cares is a Laker fan. The majority are looking at KG as a hypothetical possibility. Is it likely? No. If it's possible, then it's something that we and host of other teams would be interested in. Don't take it so personal.

I don't care how "loyal" KG is, he's not sticking around for a rebuilding process at this stage of his career. I think the Clippers should go after him and wouldn't be surprised if they did. He'd start immediately at center, his midrange game would open things in the paint for Griffin, and his defense would help the team immensely.

Another possibility, albeit FAR less likely, is Tim Duncan, who is also an unrestricted free agent this summer.

I can say with certainty that the Duncan possibility is in the negative, yes, even less than 0%, there's a higher chance of Olshey giving the Spurs a random draft pick than of Duncan leaving them

Garnett would be an outstanding acquisition for you guys. I dont see it happening for a few reasons though.

1. With how well KG has played in these playoffs i think the Celtics will outbid anything you guys can offer. They really aren't rebuilding quite yet, they will have a ton of capspace this offseason with a poor class of available free agents. I think they will try to roll over that space to the summer of 2013 while remaining competitive next season.

2. KG loves Doc Rivers. Like full on man crush love. As long as the Celtics don't low ball him, if they want him back hes back.

3. KG may just retire. Hes different then most professional athletes. Hes never been the type who wants to bounce around from team to team at the end of his career just to stick in the league. I get the feeling that if he cant get what he wants in a contract from the Celtics he may just say screw it i"m done.

I'm a Celtics fan so i really hope you guys don't get him as i want him back. But my god would you love him. He would instantly turn the Clips into a top 5 defensive team. He does not allow guys to check out defensively. The Celtics have had some bad defenders the last few years, but it was not due to lack of effort because KG does not allow that.

Great points, which is why we basically all see it as a long shot, but of course, one can still hold on to that slight hope. If not, hopefully Elton Brand is amnestied and the Clippers have room when that happens to get him. Not close to the same impact, but having a big that can shoot and also defend of the bench is sorely needed.

[Neddy]

eh, what the heck... i have forgiven elton now that time has healed the wounds. if he is amnestied i would not mind at all if we billup a player like elton.

it maybe true that KG would want to retire a celtic now that he has won it all once with your team, but it is not true that we are a team to "just to stick" in the league. KG can play 30 minutes a game playing behind griffin and DJ while schooling both how to be a big in this league, and play alongside of the best PG right now in CP3. Caron is no slouch either, IF Olshey can muster bringing in KG AND a legit sized starting caliber SG we can become a head and shoulder above the team we have as is. if his desire was to play and not take a stupid level of paycut just to stay with the celts to retire a celtic, then we are a very desirable destination along with rayray. maybe both will even take significant paycuts just to play with us one season to win it all? lol
