Chad Ford sources: "unlikely" a deal happens before the draft
From Chad Ford/ESPN:According to multiple sources, the Timberwolves have been talking to multiple teams about finding a third team to help facilitate a Garnett trade...
On Wednesday, sources say one of the Hawks owners vetoed a hypothetical deal for Stoudemire.
The Suns claim to have never had any direct contact with the Hawks about a deal. While they have shown strong interest in acquiring Garnett, the deal never reached a stage where they were asked by either team to give up Stoudemire and never offered him in a trade.
While teams like the Lakers and Suns will continue to pursue Garnett, and the Wolves seem intent on trading him, sources say that it's unlikely a deal goes down by the time of the draft.
