Also interesting that we weren't high on Knight and Leonard. Sucks though we couldn't get Vucevic.

Not surprised to hear that about Knight and Leonard. If the Kings actually really liked them, they would have just kept the 7th pick and picked Knight or Leonard, as both play positions of need for the Kings. Instead they elected to trade down and pick Jimmer to fill the backup PG/SG spot and Salmons to fill the SF spot.

Hmmm...so I wonder what GP's working on...and you can rest assured it's SOMETHING as opposed to nothing.

Now that's a Voison piece, which means you always have to step lightly to avoid all the agendas that you may not even know are there. But the interesting if true portions are:
1) that maybe they still want to keep Casspi, althoguh I have no idea at all what we'll do with him otehr than wash his career down the drian wiht all the pslinters in his butt
2) that, and here is where you have to be careful, the Kings plan to use the cap money to pursue a major frontcourt talent. you have to be careful, becausde we only have the amount of money she is talking about if we don't resign Daly. And us not resigning Daly is Voison's own plank, which history tells us she will use every inch of her bully pulpit to try to make true.
Assuming amore reaosnable interpretation, that we resign Daly and THEN try to a dd a major frontcourt piece...is that in addition to Daly/Cousins/Thompson? In place of THompson? Does frontcourt include SFs in this case. Maybe a big one like AK47? Its been noted since last summer that the majority of the major PF in the game signed new contracts or switched teams just last year. There are few enough left to move. So a center? The Bogut idea for 18 games a season or however long he lasts? But that would be a second deal with Mil. Gasol as well as Daly? How could that be? Maybe it means we're doing my trade for Dwight.

I think the #1 priority is to re-sign Dally and then add a 3rd or 4th froncourt player. If I am not mistaken, Nene is still possibly an option.
Donte Greene and Omri Casspi are expiring contracts. (Casspi not really, but his next year is a team option). For that reason, they're trade bait.
I expect them to dump Greene for a pick or cash and to keep Casspi.

For $8-10 million/per yes, he is...not sure he's what we want to spend that kind of money on.

Adding a VETERAN backup PF that can defend would be nice.
