Garnett To The Denver Nuggets?

Well in ESPN’s fantasy world Kevin Garnett to the Denver Nuggets makes complete sense. But in the real world this is about as likely as JR Smith coming back to Denver, which isn’t very likely.

Austin Link seems to believe that a deal involving Garnett for Andre Miller and Arron Afflalo would be logical for both teams. Of course in the real world, a deal wouldn’t make sense for either team. The Celtics really don’t have a need or a spot for Afflalo or Miller, while the Nuggets are more interested in building around their young players than adding a veteran who is past his prime.

Link also pointed out that Anderson Varajeo would be a cheaper alternative for the Nuggets and he would fit in better for the Nuggets than Garnett. A deal for Varajeo makes much more sense, because the Cleveland Cavaliers would at least have interest in Afflalo and he’d be a key part of the Cavaliers rebuilding squad.

Of course neither deal is likely, because, Afflalo can’t be traded until March 1 which is after the trade deadline and also the Nuggets are more interested in keeping their current core together.
