Prior to Sunday’s game between the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Clippers, Sporting News reported that Kevin Garnett could be on his way out of Boston to Hollywood to play alongside Chris Paul and Blake Griffin.
Sources tell Sporting News that the #Clippers have contacted the #Celtics about Kevin Garnett. Offer would include Caron Butler and Beldsoe.

While it’s hard to believe Danny Ainge would cut ties with Garnett, the Celtics current play of basketball is made for Eric Bledsoe. Boston does present a heavy number of guards, but there could be moves prior to the trade deadline. Names like Jason Terry and Avery Bradley, who doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, is on top of teams’ wanted list.
Garnett does convey an enormous amount toughness and positive attitude on the floor, but for the Celtics to pickup a rising guard in Eric Bledsoe may be an offer Ainge can’t refuse. As far for the deal on the ta...

Sporting News’ report Sunday that the Clippers are making a push for 17-year-veteran Kevin Garnett has become the rumor of the week. Follow up reports insist it’s not likely to happen, but either way, the six-year Celtic made it clear he’s as loyal as they come.

I am on record saying that the Celtics window has closed and it is time to blow up the team. KG and Paul Pierce would be considered valuable assets to teams who are in a position to make a NBA Finals run. Every trade should be explored by Danny Ainge at this point.
KG has a no trade clause, but from these quotes it appears if the right trade came around he would be interested....

With the recent news that Jared Sullinger will be out for the rest of the season, joining superstar point guard, Rajon Rondo, all hope of contention is lost. They could make a big trade to acquire talent, but it would cost all of their valuable pieces and long-term cap space, which is why Rudy Gay is not in Boston and why Josh Smith will not be in green either. With a healthy Rajon...

Could the Boston Celtics be willing to trade Kevin Garnett to the Los Angeles Clippers? That is a question Sporting News is wondering and thinks the deal would revolve around Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler. To me the move makes little sense for the Celtics as they have Rajon Rondo (who is lost for this season) heading into to next season and this one is pretty much lost without...
