    So 2 #14 picks essentially nets us the #5 pick? Not bad. I suppose the kind of risk you have to take if you are the Rockets.

    I'd be pissed if I was a Kings fan. Basically a wasted top 5 pick for them in a suppossedly deep draft.

    Garcia team option for next year $6.4mill (bye?)

    Robinson = $3.526mill (Patterson $3.105mill) next season

    So $400k worse off - wow!

    Unfortunately, Thomas Robinson was never very good nor with much potential. Cleared some cap space next year though and Garcia will help this season.

    This does effect our cap room though, doesn't it? Garcia has another year.

    (Edit) Never mind...thanks....

    Need more info on the Mook trade part. I guess the whole 3 way trade is still being unsurfaced.

    I am confident in our future.... but what about the playoffs this year, Les?
    Patterson was more seasoned than Robinson or Honeycutt

    I love Robinson's story I remember hearing about during the draft, but hasn't he essentially been a bust of sorts? Why are we excited about getting Robinson? Hep me unnerstan cuz I don't watch the Kangs.

    Ok, there better be a buyout in Garcia's contract after this season or something. That's a hit to the cap and hurts our chance of signing a max player if not.
