Newspapers and Internet websites have been reporting that Kevin Garnett has quietly asked out of Minnesota, but Sam Mitchell played with Garnett and doesn't give credit to the rumors.
"I just can't hear him uttering those words (trade me)," said Mitchell. "Everything he's been through thus far he hasn't said it. So why would he do it now? I can't see it. Because he's not the type of guy who's going to give up."

Abed Hassuneh, the brother of a man who filed a lawsuit against Eddie Griffin, called police shortly after 6 p.m. Thursday, about an hour after Griffin and a friend came to his store near the University of Minnesota.
Once at the store, Hassuneh said, Griffin had a store employee call him at home and that was when the player threatened him and called him names.
"It's an uncivilized way of settling something," Hassuneh said Saturday. "He started making threats that he'd have people to deal with me."
Griffin confirmed to a reporter that he went to the store and had spoken with Hassuneh on the phone. "I went there yesterday and asked him why he was doing that," Griffin said late Friday.
He said he told Hassuneh that an allegation that he was masturbating at the time of the accident was false and that nobody should have said that.
