I'll tell ya this much when it comes to dealing Landry I'd be real careful for what you wish for Kings fans. As someone said earlier in the thread Carl is a guy that lives on Championship teams, he's a guy that is pretty much a cog in a winning foundation. Sometimes people get too hung up on size, skillset and placing money value on a guy. We don't have anything proven on this team yet except our 20 yr old rookie of the year phenom. I think alot of us our getting ahead ourselves here(myself included) when it comes to wanting to see what we have. Also consider the fact that the bar has been set fairly high for junk PF's this summer, but Landry is WORLDS better than these guys that have gotten paid. He's tough as nails and consistent as hell and the way he plays it doesn't look like he'll have that terrible of a decline as he ages. If Cousins develops like we all think he will, then we can have random 7ft Joe Schmoe coming off the bench to spell him Dalembert won't be needed. If it ever came down to Dalembert vs Landry as to who gets re-signed I would definitely go for Landry.
But however if Landry was to be dealt I really hope we get a better package than the Phoenix one somebody suggested.Dudley is a 3, not a 2 and as for Clark? If you can't shine with MVSteve you can't shine with anyone, he has to breakout this year or well he's a bust plain and simple. I think Landry would command more than that from other teams, he's got a ton more value around the league than I think we are giving him after our big draft.
In the end I want all of our guys to succeed and if our bigs all pan out than that is fine with me. I would really hate for GP to jump the gun on dealing Landry and god forbid we are left with nada in our hand.
