The trade will most likely help the Kings if Artest plays well and bites his tougue. I say they move up to the middle of the pack and compete for the playoffs if Artest has any kind of impact, which he will most likely. The Kings were going no where fast and by getting Artest, they could make a run for the playoffs.

It won't help because he isn't going.

Yeah Wig, just reported that Artest doesn't want to play for the Kings and will not be going to Sactown, instead the Pacers are suspending him without pay or something like that. Peja will not be going to Indy and will not be playing tonight either against the Sixers

yeah i dont see him going there...he isnt gonna want to go to a team that is going no where fast, i still think eventually he ends up w the clippers for maggette...i wish he would go to sacramento, suck it up and just play, for all those millions he is getting jesus just go play ball

Tommy · 01-25-06, 07:32 PM

Done deal, He is going to the Kings for Peja

I won't hold my breath though lol.

what a steal for the pacers! to be able to unload artest someone who clearly wasnt gonna play another game for them for a shooter, something they clearly needed after reggie retired, def helps them
