The Celtics got the better of the deal for the here and now. They become instant contenders and you just might see them in the finals this year. The East is not like it use to be. The T-Wolves smell like a rose for the future but this is the Celtics best team since Larry led the crew.

The celtics of course!
KG is definitely a top 10 player in the league right now!!
He brings intensity and passion to the team
Dude can hit jumpers from everywhere, rebound, defend, post up...he can do it all!
He's one of the best big men in the league in passing
YEs this is a very good trade for Boston
They already had Ray Allen and Paul Pierce who are in their 30s hungry for a championship...both of those guys are good shooters and explosive scorers
on top of that they added an inside presence in Kevin Garnet...they've put some of the best players in the league in 3 slots and all 3 of those guys will definitely will be all stars
if those 3 start playing defense and kick up their defensive efforts up a notch...watch out
Celtics are definitely gonna be top 3 in the East fsho...who knows maybe they might win the Eastern Conference after all...they have a great chance of doing that!

McHale got the better end of the deal (unlike the Shaq deal that landed some bums in return). McHale still has lots of other problems but this was not a bad move on his part. People are all excited about seeing these 3 in Celtic green, but 3 All-Stars aren't very impressive (since two of them are not great defenders). Now if they can play some monster defense constantly, then they should be taken seriously. At this point they might not even make the playoffs!

Probably Minnesota in the long run, they get 4 young players. Boston is now probably the oldest team in the NBA now. Getting KG, and Ray Allen who's both over 30. Also Paul Pierce, who's 33.

id say minnesota. Boston is a franchise in shambles. He will maybe elevate their status to sub par contention for 2008.

If the Celts win it all then yes, but if they don't then no and will have to rebuilt in a few years.
