    "WojYahooNBA If T-Mac gets buy out with Kings, he privately hopes to sign with Lakers or Cavaliers for the playoffs, source close to him tells Y!"

    if Mcgrady went somewhere, where would you rather see him go? Lakers or Cavs? I personally found that funny, I think he brings more to the Cavs than he would to the Lakers though, he would be be starting material on the Cavs, but probably wouldn't start due to Parker not needing a lot of shots, being a great 3pt shooter, and being a good defender.

    Because obviously if morey wasnt looking to get bosh then scola would have been in this deal who is also coveted by teams as well it can be done and remember if Bosh is going to go anywhere it will be texas this is where hes from so advantage HOUSTON!

    Love carl, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. I just liked we one up dallas on this one they wanted martin, instead we got him. Seriously not a bad trade though I see carl about where hes gonna be at. Not an over powering four a great bench player like bobby jackson but a 4. What martin gives you is a 2 guard who can get his own shot off and play well with yao when he comes back. I will say this ya gotta belive were getting hill also in a 3 way i dont see us only having kenny thomas as our back up 4

    If Kings move TMac to NY, it would be 4 same package Knicks were offering Houston: Jeffries, Hill, Hughes, picks.


    Well, since Morey didn't agree to it, the Kings are going to take the deal. Freaking sucks. :(

    And he's a better fit with Yao (aka our franchise player).

    Well Ariza is more athletic than Martin and Hayes more than Yao. So yes.

    I can't wait to see the details of this trade when it becomes finalized ... for now, not sure what to think of it.

    The more I think about it, I'm with you here. It's not an all smiles trade, but it might very well be in the long run. If NY really values this Rodriguez kid that much then maybe we'll get something even better. If not, we have an upgrade at backup PG.

    Wow.

    Why did we have to part ways with Carl? He's emerged in to a borderline All-Star this season.

    I'm going to miss his face-up midrange jumper, vicious dunks, and all out hustle and dedication. He was a baller.

    I really wish we'd dumped Scola on the Kings. Landry's going to be missed.

    I would've been more willing to throw Landry in to the mix had we been receiving Iggy in return. Bummer.

    He was playing out of his mind before the injury. It took a little while to settle back in but he had back to back 30 pt games a couple of weeks ago.

    He's shooting 40% this season but he has only been back for roughly a month man.

    I wake up in the middle of the night 2:48am and find this, lol, first thing out my mouth was, "oh *****".

    I don't know if I like Sergio or Kenny Thomas, there's got to be more to this deal? Matin is kind of a chucker, don't know what to say, this doesn't seem to be a Daryl Morey trade.

    It's the final revenge of Tmac. She hates Rockets organization so much that must took away Landry to revenge.
