Grant hints of blockbuster trade - title edited

I dont want to add fuel to the fire but I was at Sac Airport last night to pick up a friend and I saw Kenny Thomas at the Airport sitting down. I really hope Kenny being at the Airport has something to do with this possible pending trade. I would be so ecstatic

Sorry for the bad image but I took the picture from my car using a camera phone.

You sure that's him. I can't tell from the picture.
 
KT's like "I'm on the damn bench, eff the world..." lol
ROFL....Thats just too good!!!! The funny thing is he was just walking around in circles for at least 20 minutes before he decided to sit down on the bench. It was like he was just lost and dumb founded by the HUGE "Terminal B" in sacramento airport terminal. :rolleyes:

I am just hoping he was waiting for a flight out of sacramento....maybe for a team physical?

I know its a hard picture to see (damn camera phones) but I am 100000000% sure it was Kenny. Its not hard to notice a 6'7" African American Guy walking through Sac Airport, especially being our starting PF for a majority of last season. He was all alone with just a single small carry on bag walking around waiting for something for about 20 minutes (then I had to leave).
 
I wake, up and still no news i'm not surprised though a 6-team 16 player deal is a tough task for every GM if anything i expect the blockbuster trade to go down around 8 o'clock ET or just around 7 eastern.
 
Damn. If floydian says he/she saw KT at the airport then give him/her the benefit of the doubt. Why all the doubts? There are many Kings players that go to the airport.

Thank you Rockmeister............as a side note its "him"


For all others if you dont believe me then dont.....its not going to hurt my feelings :D
 
Am I the only one who gets a little emotional when we trade players. I don't know why. I wanted Peja gone for son long but when we actually made the trade I felt kinda bad. Now I want Kenny gone and now that I hear he was at the airport with a picture for proof I'm getting a little sad. I'm pretty sure my feelings will change when we see the new player in action just like it did when we saw King Artest play. Hopefully a trade is in the works.

I believe you saw him, but him being at the airport doesn't really mean a whole lot. Its possible that it could, but its really wishful thinking.

BTW- I am almost dead sure I saw the Dad from Friday there about two weeks ago. It was hard to know for absolute because he was wearing a hat and glasses, and I really didn't want to flat out stare at a middle-aged man at the airport.

I get emotional anytime I see KT in our roster.
 
I just want something to happen. I want a trade that gets us what we need, not necessarily what we want. I think resigning Bonzi should be the task at hand and if he doesn't resign then sign and trade him for players we need. I wish the 16 player trade would happen and hopefully the Kings would be included and get good players in return for whoever we end up trading away. KT would be a good choice for starters...
 
I think there may be some confusion still going on. 16 players was never discussed. What Grant said was *6 Team*, which if you weren't listening very closely could be made out to be *Six-Teen*. The trade only was rumored to involve AS MANY as *6 Teams*.
 
I hope the Kings are one of the teams involved if there is going to be any trade at all. However, it would suck if we gave up Bonzi or Miller (example) for garbage players.
 
Actually- I hope that nothing happens until after 4:00 PM. There is nothing more amusing than listening to people call up Grant and ask him about something he said would happen and didn't (in this case either the Sac-Ind trade or his 6 team trade- if it hasn't happened yet). To listen to his retractions, spin,tantrums, hangups, and out an out denial of his earlier comments is truly funny, and well deserved after some of his stances in the previous years.

It happens all the time, and I cannot wait to hear about him getting on the defensive today if someone calls him up and asks about the trade that hasn't happened ;)

Yeah but as someone else pointed out, with all the verbally agreed contracts finally getting signed today, and other S&T's that may have been in the works, it's a lot for the league to approve. It may not break in the media until it's acutally getting approved and the media hears about it.

Like Grant or not, he would know as much as the player and his agent knows, since he has personal access to them. Unless that player or agent lied ot him, which he can't control.

Maybe he is being blackmailed and you witnessed the "drop off"
 
Wow, it looks like nothing really happened i guess this whole blockbuster trade was just a fantasty nothing else i expected the trade to occur around 7PM ET. looks like we were fooled.
