When asked if the Knicks were ever in the Kevin Garnett sweepstakes, Knicks coach Isiah Thomas said: "The hottest it ever got was with Boston. I think it was a deal that they had together [with Minnesota], then it was in the media and then it cooled down and then they were able to put it back together again. But I don't think [the Wolves] were ever serious with anyone else in terms of moving him."
