    Great Trade for the Hawks. Don't know what Sacramento is trying to Accomplish. Isn't Shelden Williams a bust?

    Well, the Kings aren't getting in the playoffs, while the Hawks are fighting for the last spot... (even though the Kings are a better team, just shows you how crappy the East is)

    Won't make much of a difference for us. A huge minus in the PG but picked up pretty good forwards. Too bad they won't have Bibby leading them.

    The Kings will still miss the playoffs and Atlanta will still suck. But hey, maybe Bibby might just see the playoffs this year..

    Yeah, I guess so. Maybe he'll pull a Rasheed. I think Bibby would have been money on this team.

    3 expiring contracts + Shelden Williams.

    Their money is tied up in bigs.
    PF: KT, SAR, Moore
    C: Miller, Hawes, Williams

    Maybe Artest will go to whoever is willing to give up expiring contract/s and a pick/s in return.

    The same way our organization has competed without Bibby for the past 40 years.

    C'mon, we have to have enough expirings for Bibby. He'd help a lot of our PG problems.

    Good trade for both teams. Bibby is what the hawks needed and Kings save money for next year and get a solid big man in Shelden Williams. Also now Beno Udrih gets to start and he played very well early on. Hawks could be a sleeper team in the east with Bibby, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Marvin Williams, Al Horford, Josh Childress, Zaza Pachulia, and Acie Law.

    This is trade in any way related to the Kings Cheerleaders?

    Najera (expiring) + Kleiza (expiring) for Artest is looking very realistic now.

    Both those players play SF and PF.
