2007: Landry (T-Mac trade) 2008: Greene (Artest trade) and Dorsey (T-Mac trade) 2009: Casspi (from Artest trade) They also wanted Brooks badly ...
Greene and Dorsey are both guys I'd love to have as projects on my team. Greene has been pretty good in a reserve role this year. He might have a future. I'm not saying we made a mistake trading them, but they are solid prospects. Really since DM has been here in a consulting role we have had a lot of really good prospects come through this organization via the draft.
And we been stealing their veterans: 1. Adelman 2. Bobby Jackson 3. John Barry 4. Ron Artest 5. Kevin Martin
that's the best part, when teams don't feel screwed after you trade with them. A good deal always leads to more in the future and the Rockets and Kings have that.
The kings trust our scouting team better than their own. We should trade our scouting team to them for Landry.
actually over the past 5-6 years the teams we've dealt with the most in trades have been: new york new orleans memphis sacramento the orleans and memphis stand out as its almost generally said not to trade within your division
Also, the Rockets were really interested in Jason Thompson before the draft, until the Kings eventually picked him.
Technically, Landry was drafted by Seattle. Greene was drafted by Memphis and Dorsey was drafted by Portland and they came here in a 3 team trade.
It's great that the Kings don't feel that they got raped after the Martin trade. The Maloofs are too cheap to pay their veterans; we can always trade them young players to them for solid veteran players.
