Jeff Goodman

Fourth and final hour Dennis and Callahan Bob -- Meyer along side about three hours and ten minutes ago we told you what Jeff Goodman. From fox sports dot com had written on the website and mister Goodman -- some very very good sources -- say impeccable. We've since been able to confirm that exactly what Jeff Goodman said was going to happen is going to happen indeed. Jeff good but from fox sports dot com nice job this morning Kevin Garnett headed to Boston.

Certainly looks that way unless I think it's going to be up to Kevin Garnett if you get a change of heart here at the last minute but from what I have been told. He's he's found out what this series could go as far as from the Boston.

You know we've we are the same thing that that both he and and ray Allen and Paul Pierce of I have not only signed off on a -- it'd be thrilled about the opportunity. The three of them to play together and win a championship here in Boston so -- like whatever hurdles about warm weather climates or whatever had prior to the June draft he has somehow gotten over Jeff.

What that part of it is if they -- himself to do I want to be here at Minnesota at this point nothing happened. Nor Peter Minnesota where from you know I've got no chance to win there's no talent really around him. -- at least want to be with Paul Pierce and in reality have a chance to -- the Eastern Conference.

We're told it to Rajon Rondo will not be a part of the deal but I'm sure they still had the kind of since up their belt a little bit grit their teeth to apart with Al Jefferson too steep price to pay underestimation Jeff.

She still not a 100% sold their -- not a part of this deal. I was told that that Minnesota is really holding now.

Well it they have been for two weeks according to some the sources I've talked to near the west coast and they said it would have been done two weeks ago had the Celtics acquiesced and Rajon Rondo into the deal but Danny -- one the -- the the the battle of -- here with Kevin and Rajon Rondo is not part of the deal.

Well I take it can you could be right I'm not my sources are art tellem it's still could be -- deal either way. I think -- to do you gotta make.

Right let's stick a look at his big picture now is this is should deal in your opinion that. It comes from two ex teammates that you know looking for you desperate measures at this point you kind of clubs that have not. Got as far as they should have them under achieved over the last five years ago with the frost of this deal coming from your view.

I think it's up to date for sure that they keep it would interest went when he gave the reality deal. You know you have -- for the reality obviously you want to Garnett that was the guy you want to more than anybody. He will depart without 2% the three of four players you know what brought Colby Garnett will probably real. And and this is a -- that he wants not only what can drop a two week but the guys worked epic it is expensive ability ammunition -- guys respectability in all NBA defensive it was seven or eight years that's something you need desperately with this group right now. And I think as -- you get in what does that I don't think he brought I personally I'd rather see somebody who's been in the league freighter tenure what rapid Brevin Knight runs the I'd rather runners you back appoint somebody who can really get the ball -- it and make everybody happy you make good decisions are holding runners --

We're talking adjustable from fox sports dot com and an in -- it's pretty clear that NBA success -- large is based on star power not one start but to is it safe to say that this constitutes three for the Boston Celtics in -- KJ.

Oh absolutely and 60 million between the three next year you better have -- start in -- our -- out of those three guys yeah I don't I don't see anybody honestly the top -- There's nobody east recovered to combat that obviously securities clothes -- you know -- Carter that they keep jumpers and they're they're closed but you've got to like your chances were these resort up against anybody in the mister --

ask -- this same question I asked that Cedric Maxwell at ten minutes ago in the east in whatever order you want to put him Chicago Miami Cleveland Detroit Boston anybody else how do you rank them how far up the latter has Boston move when they pull the steal off.

You know I'd pick the top order addict or somewhere in that. Upper echelon of Eastern Conference and again. You know the hardest thing is they still don't ever report card or spot you can get away with one or the other. I'm not sure you can. Actually I -- he can't win it all without both of those two -- Easter copper and when you're not beating the powers in the west recovered without those peace.

How does this deal going to play in Minnesota

probably govern well I -- you think about the one piece of disorganization. It is Kevin Garnett people you know -- only know about out -- percent but do you really think people Minnesota go out separates him from. You know from Wally Szczerbiak they don't know. I mean they don't put up 16 and 11 last year but they're not going to be yelled identifier without Jefferson high -- from Mississippi.

injury aside how does this not work out well for the Boston Celtics

chemistry -- now. I mean that's the biggest thing is is assisting implode I don't think it does because I think you've got three guys out of which have really -- So it and you know obviously appears want to you know college -- Garnett never played college ball so I think you know -- well just stop who you know -- weren't sure the ball a little bit and notes about appreciate. What they've just got to be good in the locker room. With these young kids I think that might be their biggest thing is keeping the game together with these three big egos. Three big salaries and guys that got a lot of attention they've got a mixture of young kids that are just got to forget about. Because that's going to be -- it is -- the other piece.

When you look at the three egos are going to be asked to be checked at the door do you suspect might might have the most difficulty doing that wouldn't be logically Paul Pierce because it's his -- they're coming.

No question about it yet -- systemic guy here. If you say it all it wants it he's been macoute soldier. But we know a couple of years ago he was not it is soldier and -- so -- revert back to that. I still don't think he's a great leader I think he's -- open -- leader but I you know Kevin Garnett. It read outcome it is he's how -- sort of speak to take a lot of it kept away from him because basic Garnett can do all the attention. Dominated training camp noted that your it's it's Garnett it's not reality but -- it's Kevin Garnett he's the big start here he's the best what are the three clearly and an epic -- could have some you know it he won't say it but I think he -- out some by jealousy itself.

If your work to be jealous or to rail against this with the -- to -- this what you were asking for this is what you wanted to have happen you -- a veteran presence and now you have not one but two others beside yourself honesty you got what you wish for.

Absolutely it should but but we go out some of these MBA players if -- he's been -- for years and and you know again especially if he's not if if if his numbers suffer. Because of it and they're going to suffer all the readable. They're not allowed an average whatever west 4225 whatever they average last year but they are averaged 20 you know this a bit tough game defend against what you're talking about you -- you go after in the became for a bottle gotten I've been pretty dark.

You said the -- will not play well in Minnesota I think that's clear. -- kills job be on the line or perhaps even changes with these steal when you look at I mean. It's -- that Dana has Kevin Garnett is going to be a lot of positive publicity going. You know to Boston's way with his deal with Garnett coming into town however as you say Jefferson the going to go who's this guy -- Gerald green -- tell fair number one who cares we've done nothing it would get Ricky Davis and Mark about going nowhere. Do you believe that this is Kevin mchale -- last stand as GM of the timberwolves with this deal.

I think in my people with a bit less -- I mean if if if the Celtics don't kid into the playoffs this year. Computers no weight gain -- up next here. Yeah I just can't -- it I mean this is. This is sick you gotta give because let's face it you know he has had some what are well I don't want Cypriot arrived. But but we all -- we hear it yet at a lot that you got to value put these -- together. You know I feel that there's no way that this team can't get in the second round of the -- with those three guys I've been shot but if they -- It somehow -- don't give it -- playoffs yeah I keep seeing not not being here next year eight they would you know the -- You know this is a team appearances you know bottom five in the NBA which certainly take it could it should. With -- tell what I mean now you got out there simply it would Ricky Davis and it's just -- I mean there's not a very attractive team.

We'll talk with Jeff Goodman from fox sports are common -- hum -- I'm told you just up the phone with -- agent Andy Miller. What he had to say.

I don't know a lot of B he honestly sounded like -- in the dark -- Summitt as she just got back in from Mexico and it was going to be with Chauncey Billups and it it you know took the one thing about this -- as we know is agent killer so tight. That if they want to do they can do a deal without anybody talk about that would run you don't know what not at all I've got. I don't know how it all they've -- Miller was KGB's agent all this you'd like particulars involved at some point. But I that your team goes all the specifics at least that's what he told me he wasn't sure at this point what this.

Well that that's a little interest -- because I'm told the Celtics would not make this deal if they weren't convinced they're going to be able to extend KG do you have that same under.

Yes absolutely a little bit -- insight on the -- and and not unless it's a change of heart over the next 48 hours. You know that they that this is a done deal from his perspective.

My understanding is the Dallas Mavericks at Mark Cuban we're going after -- heart as well do you have any any details of of what they were offering in and why the Celtics deal with preferable to Kevin mchale than dallas' other -- that shipping used to set this thing in the west.

Yeah I think that was to be part of you to -- didn't want to send him to another Western Conference power. I mean out of that -- would doubt that spot you know. If they -- had been when that the title next year that -- not look good I think I think Miguel knows that the Celtics are winning the title here.

Plus Jefferson to the idea about not so if you notice that. -- he's got to go around.

No -- your questions about his -- to get to get a win the championship the -- Great piece for the future the next ten years and I got it not a lot of people out that --

Kill have to sell to these fans because like I grew up in well -- they get killed us it looked up hi guys a budding star he's young east.

And the arsenal that -- right now -- it -- probably -- guy. That your big time player he's a great number three and that's why I think this straight and so I think you've got. You know hey you can tell you want about out opposite he put up -- in the wet plaster that's terrific. We don't know he's going to do that every year we know Kevin Garnett is going to put up 20 at every single year but you know the next 34.

But what Al Jefferson Paul Pierce and ray Allen been such a bad deal would you -- of consider them to be noticeably improved had they stayed pat after rail comes on board Jeff.

I cannot set and I I think it would award you know 4345 games this year. But I particularly if he was Kevin Garnett.

His name's Jeff Gordon fox sports dot com Jeff thanks very much nice work this morning. We'll talk it down the road just like Jeff good minute during on the Dennis and Callahan morning show received a gift from our friends at golf where -- golfers where else. Your game just got better
