    I think its most likely A. Brooks because he would have the most value. Man, that means we still have a lot of leverage for another trade!

    Funny how, the last time Artest seemed to be happy and well behaved he was coached by Adelman. He even offered to donate his entire contract for the year to keep him.

    How much is Artest making for the next year? 7mil? BJax is making 6mil if I am not mistaken. We can't be sending someone's contract worth more than 2 mil as filler. The filler is along the line of SF3, Gerald Green, etc. If this is true, we are getting a legit 3rd scorer without giving up a thing? WOW! Now, let's get the Alston+Battier for AI deal done!

    AI
    Artest
    Tmac
    Scola
    Yao


    :eek:

    If nothing else, we got ourselves one less Rox killer to worry about. For whatever reason, he always goes nuts when we play the Kings.

    between artest and Tmac, you think there will be enough shots for AI? I don't think it's a good idea putting those 3 together.

    It's 3 in the morning over there. Seriously SJC, why reading the Chronicle at 3 in the morning?

    here's the thing, with this price, it's a low risk high reward proposition.

    Damn it! I love this video so much. We finally got a man who can beat the man with biggest breast muscles from that team. Long live Daryl Morey!

    AB makes sense for the kings. Otherwise they are getting nothing back for Artest. They just extended Artest for just one more year, so they don't need money back.

    I'm not so worried about losing the most likely late 1st round pick next year. We have a most likely early second round pick that we picked up during this years draft.

    The Rox finally have our BIG 3! Boston better watch their backs now. We now have 2 of the best defensive players in the league and 3 of the best offensive players in the league. Kinda funny how we have been through 3 ex Kings in the past couple of years. Trade might not be announced till Aug 14th (due to newly aquired rookie contract terms) but I'm already announcing it to the world baby!!! Season tickets...here I come!!! :p
