Why KG to Clippers is unlikely

By Nick Borges

According to Yahoo! Sports, the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Clippers have held trade talks which would send Kevin Garnett to the West coast and a Eric Bledsoe - DeAndre Jordan combination going back to the Northeast.

Garnett has said he wants to finish his career with the Celtics, however he might allow this deal since he has a home in Malibu. Garnett owns a no-trade provision in his contract and he can not be traded without his consent.

The Celtics would probably accept this deal, however the Clippers are the team likely to decline this proposal, according to ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard.

Clippers front office won't make a the deal
"Vinny Del Negro wants KG, willing to give Bledsoe/Jordan for him. Clips front office totally against the move. Front office has final say. If Boston wants Willie Green, Ronny Turiaf & Caron Butler, sure the Clips front office will take KG, but not for Bledsoe & Jordan."
