See the trend......big men (besides kobe). Gotta build around the bigs. However, Chris Bosh and Dwight Howard would also be great young bigs to build around.
I feel bad for KG. He's a real talent... but HE CANNOT WIN. Even with talent-in their prime, around him. (See: Latrell Sprewell, Sam Cassell, Wally Sczerbiak) There is no doubt that Kevin McHale and the Timberwolves franchise believes he is the answer. I just don't believe that 30 GM's would take him with the first pick. Not even Kevin McHale. Mind you, Dirk, Yao and Lebron haven't won anything...yet, but if it was today and you took player history, age, years left to dominate, marketability and just pure skill and talent, Garnett could slip below the Top 10. Don't quote me on that just yet, I'd have to re-assess it again, but it's close.
