What deal would be right? LeBron? Dirk? You can't find a team cornerstone any more solid than KG. There is no way they could ever get anything close to equal value if they traded him. If they're in the same position in three years, when his contract is almost up, yeah - trading him might make some sense. They could get some value. Now? Hell no.

With the new CBA and as evidenced by the Lakers trade of Shaq in the off-season, I think the whole league knows that unless you're trading a superstar straight up for another superstar, you're going to be getting 0.75 on the dollar.

If the wolve traded K.G. they would piss off all the loyal fans.There is no one out there that could put to gether a deal that would worth the wolve to even thing about it, But look at the deal the VIKINGS did with Moss. So anything could be possible, i just wouldn't hold my breath

Bullshit. KG gets traded if the deal is right. He and Szerbisuck are holding the team ransom with their contracts. I don't think they deal him outright for another huge contract like Marbury's, but for a couple of contracts so they can go out and sign some younger talent. The 'GM guarantee' should be held alongside votes of confidence from ownership regarding the status of losing coaches.
