So it would be:

Kings : Hedo
Knicks: Artest
Magic: Richardson and Lee

Let's get it done. I think all parties will get what they want in this trade.

I'll call Otis right now. ;-)

Craig

:lol: Did you get Otis on board?

If Isiah can manage to control a team of Artest-Randolph-Curry-Starburry that team is kind of scary. I bet he would love to have that problem. The key is there is to keep winning before the bottom falls out.

He said he's game as long as I find a way to get Darko on the team as well.

So, get to work!

Once again, wouldn't work. We'd still have to get Richardson. There is a huge difference in salaries and the Knicks are over the cap (who isn't surprised by that?).

Who needs Darko (and his agent) if we get Lee.

Because would you rather have Dwight, Darko, David Lee, and Tony Battie or Dwight, Lee, Battie, and some unknown?

If we had both Lee and Darko, seems like there would be a bit of a logjam.

I was under the impression that we needed big men at the PF and C positions.

I agree I would rather have the Lee/Howard/Battie/Darko, but with the way the negotiations (or the lack of it) is going, Darko is almost as good as gone. He is looking more and more like Deshawn 2.0.

I could live with a Lee/Howard/Battie/Gortat(Kasun).

I'm definitely with Archduke and Ben on this one. First, his attitude scares the hell out of me. The fastest way to ruin an NBA team is to sign a guy like Artest. If someone makes fun of his hair, he may shoot them.

Secondly, our biggest weakness (by far), is in the frountcourt. If we get rid of Turkoglu, we NEED to bring in a big guy. Counting on Gortat AND Kasun is way too much of a gamble. I completely agree that he is an upgrade over Turk, but he's an upgrade at the wrong position.

I'm against this in every conceivable way.

Did I miss something? Is Kasun coming back?

The Magic extended him a qualifying offer, which makes him a restricted free-agent. I doubt anyone will give him an offer sheet, and the Magic will own his rights. It certainly looks like he'll be back.

I can't believe you people are talking about getting David freaking Lee and you dont want artest. Are you guys kidding me? Everyone looks at his attitude and the negatives he "could" bring. What about the positives have you seen the guys numbers and what he can do defensively?

We could potentially have a lineup that includes Lewis, Artest, and Dwight!! Who cares who we get to back up Tony at the 5 and dwight at the 4!!
