Nets to Pursue Garnett in Offseason?

Basketball News & NBA Rumors

What the Nets are thinking— reportedly — is that they need to upgrade the roster and power forward is one place they feel they can do better. The team reportedly plans to chase after Boston’s Kevin Garnett as they try to add star power for when they move into the Barclays Center.

(Kris) Humphries claims not to hear all the speculation, and goes about his business not thinking about any of it.

“There’s not a team in the NBA that doesn’t want Dwight Howard; there’s not a team that doesn’t want whoever the best player is at each position,’’ he said. ”Hopefully, I’ve put myself in the position these last couple years where teams value me and (want me to) be a part of the future.

“I’ve kind of lived by the motto of ‘Control the things you can control,’’’ he continued. “I can control how hard I play and put myself in a position where I can help a team, whether or not it’s this team. I’d like it to be this team. Maybe it’s not. You’ve got to just keep plugging away.’’
