引述 :『Multiple sources told ESPN.com on Sunday night that former teammates Kevin McHale and Danny Ainge revived discussions of a deal that would end Garnett's 12-season association with Minnesota by sending him to Ainge's Celtics, with the Wolves believed to be getting back two of the assets McHale coveted most last month -- Al Jefferson and Theo Ratliff's expiring contract. It's believed that the latest incarnation of the deal also would have Minnesota acquiring youngsters Gerald Green, Sebastian Telfair and Ryan Gomes. The salary-cap math involved would require both teams to account for Garnett's $6.75 million trade kicker. The Wolves would also receive a future first-round pick from Boston and take back the future first-round pick it sent to the Celtics in the Wally Szczerbiak-Ricky Davis trade in January 2006. (Minnesota still owes the Los Angeles Clippers one first-rounder as part of the Sam Cassell-Marko Jaric deal in the summer of 2005.)』

引述 :『"I'm just thankful for the opportunity to go to a winning environment," said Jones, who is in his 13th season. "I don't have anything bad to say about the Grizzlies. I thank them for the year and a half I played for them. I gave them my all and the organization and the fans gave me their all. I'm just moving on." Jones' buyout with the Grizzlies will pay him the rest of his $15.7 million salary. He agreed to refund the Griz the prorated salary -- nearly $600,000 -- he'll receive from the new contract. Jones gained his freedom. The Griz maintained their salary cap flexibility for the offseason when Jones' team-high salary comes off the books.』
