Successful Scenario
Due to Sacramento and Minnesota being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Sacramento and Minnesota had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
On top of that we can throw in a first round draft pick...
KG would be in a familiar environment similar to when he was playing with Cassell. Except this time its Bibby to KG and KG to bibby.
KG plays better when he has a PG on his team that can shoot and Bibby can do just that. i don\'t remember Minni having much problem with Ervin Johnson at their center position so i suppose we can just sign a decent C during the offseason.
New Lineup would be:
C: Potapenko/Sampson or free agent we sign over offseason
PF: KG/KT/Sampson
SF: Artest/Martin/Monia
SG: Martin/Hassell
PG: Bibby/Hart
Few changes must be made in the offseason including a backup PG. Hassell can switch over to SG and SF. A center or two is also important and must be done via trade or free agency.
