[Boston Celtics News]

Mitch Lawrence, a writer with the New York Daily News, speculated on why Kevin Garnett refused a trade to the Celtics:

"Garnett last week, Minnesota’s franchise talent was angered by the team’s recent trade talks with Boston. The Celtics never had a shot at landing Garnett - who wanted no part of a reunion with ex-teammate Wally Szczerbiak - because they didn’t have the pieces."

Interesting... sounds like Wally was one of the main reasons Garnett passed on the Celtics. You guys buying this speculation?

That would be petty on the part of KG...less than classy to actually leak it out...but hey the NBA is about egos.

KG is at the age where he really wants to win a title. I think it has more to do with the Celtics not being close to winning.

I think azrael is right on this one, KG wants to win. I read an article yesterday that said he's too loyal to demand a trade like Kobe has done but he desperately wants a chance to win.
