I keep being asked about deals involving Kevin Garnett going somewhere. Hard to imagine that happening if the

general view among GMs mirrors the feeling that two I spoke with have: no chance KG plays the remaining two years of his contract and no chance, with him making $11.5 million and $12 million the next two years and the super luxury tax looming. Keep in mind, this is being said of the ultimate competitor and conditioning fiend. The execs have the ultimate respect for KG, they simply believe, no matter how he works, he can't squeeze another two seasons out of his legs and won't want to hang around just to hang around. I find it hard to imagine KG not taking, and finding, whatever means necessary to stay on the court for as long as he possibly can, but his athleticism and mobility have fallen off precipitously this season. No matter how much KG has been paid -- and, I've been told, he's earned more than any player ever in total salary -- no one has ever questioned whether he was worth every penny. KG made it so. Could he stand, for the first time, the view being otherwise?
