Kevin Garnett doesn't want to play for the Boston Celtics

These days, are there still people who want to play for the Celtics anyway?

The Boston Celtics are pathetic. And we proved that when they lost the overall No.1 pick to the Portland Trailblazers in the NBA Draft lottery. That's after they probably started losing games on purpose to get the best chance to land either Greg Oden or Kevin Durant in the 2007 NBA Draft on Thursday.

Apparently, Kevin Garnett knew how sick he's going to get once he dons a green Boston Celtics uniform. And judging by the way KG simply turned down what would be the biggest trade of this year's offseason, KG won't be a fan of these guys anytime soon.

Hmm... I wonder what his good friend and Boston Celtics superstar Paul Pierce feels about the Big Ticket now?

''The Boston trade isn't happening,'' Kevin Garnett's agent, Andy Miller, told ESPN reporter Chris Sheridan. ''If a trade were to happen, that's not a destination that we're interested in pursuing.''

The Boston Celtics - Minnesota Timberwolves trade would've sent Kevin Garnett and Troy Hudson to the Boston Celtics for up and coming Celtics star Al Jefferson, Theo Ratliff and Sebastian Telfair. The Wolves will also have Wally Szczerbiak return to Minnesota, as well as a No.5 overall pick in next Thursday's 2007 NBA Draft.

''This would be a major trade that would affect a franchise and those in the organization, so you better be sure [he wants to be there long term],'' said Miller. Miller, KG's agent, informed both the Wolves and the Celtics that there's no chance in hell Garnett would play for a pathetic team like the Celtics.

So where exactly does Kevin Garnett actually wants to play?

Apparently, KG would like to play for the Phoenix Suns after becoming good friends with Phoenix Suns superstar Steve Nash. Garnett and Nash became good friends when KG congratulated the Canadian on his first MVP trophy. And judging by the way Shawn Marion is currently having some problems with the Suns organization, a deal involving both KG and ''the Matrix'' was definitely possible.

If it wasn't for Marion saying he doesn't want to play for Minnesota... OR Boston.
