K.G. Shippin’ Off to Boston?
Big hoops news: It looks like Kevin Garnett is headed to the Boston Celtics after all. It may seem like the Celtics are giving up too much — Al Jefferson, Gerald Green, Ryan Gomes, Sebastian Telfair, Theo Ratliff and a No. 1 pick — but this move has to make the Cs the favorites to represent the East in the Finals next season. In fact, I’m not so sure a K.G.-Paul Pierce-Ray Allen trio wouldn’t be tops in the league. (And, no, I didn’t forget about the crews from Phoenix and San Antonio.)
Man, this is the kind of move die-hard fans dream of. As a Pacers fan, I can’t tell you how many times I daydreamed about K.G. trading places with J.O. (back when we had Reggie, Ron, etc…). I’m not going to lie — Beantown sports fans have it fucking made right now.
