I wouldn't say we are exactly rebuilding. Obviously that is not what the GM thinks. HE DID NOT GET EXPRIRING CONTRACTS IN RETURN. Therefore when you wrapped up so much in 3 guys how can you rebuild. We still have Bibby, Cat, Brad, and Peja.
If we move Peja tommorrow than i would say we are rebuilding but we will have to wait and see on that one.

curious: if its not rebuilding then what would ya call it?
especially considering the only major holdovers form last season are bibby, miller, stojakovic, jackson, and songaila. rebuilding is never a quick process, which is why this trade sucks so much. these guys ive mentioned are all gonna be victimized by the rebuilding curse. i absolutely hate using t-mac as an example, but why do ya think he was so eager to get outta orlando? they were losers, rebuilding around him....going nowhere fast. waste of talent. hope this doesnt befall the kings, but if it aint rebuilding, i dunno what it is...

excuse me? do you come here often? While there are many people who wanted Webb to be traded there are AT LEAST as many who did not want to trade him. And, of the people who thought we should trade him I think you will find very few who wanted to give him away for so little in return. Give me a break.
Well, I think some of the fans on this board got what they wanted. Sactown keeps Peja the Playoff choker and trades the best player on the team for nothing. Adelman and Petrie got extension for their 'job'.
Here is what Petrie's job is all about :
Philadelphia trades: PF Brian Skinner (2.0 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 0.2 apg in 10.3 minutes)
SF Corliss Williamson (10.8 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.9 apg in 22.0 minutes)
PF Kenny Thomas (11.3 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 1.6 apg in 28.6 minutes)
Philadelphia receives: PF Michael Bradley (1.5 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 0.3 apg in 6.4 minutes)
PF Chris Webber (21.3 ppg, 9.7 rpg, 5.5 apg in 36.3 minutes)
SF Matt Barnes (3.8 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 1.3 apg in 16.6 minutes)
Change in team outlook: +2.5 ppg, +1.6 rpg, and +4.4 apg.
Sacramento trades: PF Michael Bradley (1.5 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 0.3 apg in 6.4 minutes)
PF Chris Webber (21.3 ppg, 9.7 rpg, 5.5 apg in 36.3 minutes)
SF Matt Barnes (3.8 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 1.3 apg in 16.6 minutes)
Sacramento receives: PF Brian Skinner (2.0 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 0.2 apg in 10.3 minutes)
SF Corliss Williamson (10.8 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.9 apg in 22.0 minutes)
PF Kenny Thomas (11.3 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 1.6 apg in 28.6 minutes)
Change in team outlook: -2.5 ppg, -1.6 rpg, and -4.4 apg.
TRADE DECLINED => nice job regarding the boards!
I'm a Webb fan but as sad as it is I guess I won't follow NBA as much as I've done. Webb's heart was in Sacramento, he said it a couple of times. When on the other hand, Stojakovic basically was a King because he was under contract with Sacramento. Definitely a good move. I hope Peja won't let you down like he's down a thousand times before.

Hi everyone. I am a Laker fan from another board, but I just wanted to drop in here and let you guys know that I too was dissapointed in the Webber trade. The Spurs may be the #1 team in the West right now, but come playoffs the Kings were one Tim Duncan injury away from having a great shot at a ring.
I am really surprised that the owners apparently gave up on this season, especially since they really didn' t get much salary relief in return. At least you know Brad Miller will be a monster in the post without Webber, and Peja should return to last season's form as well. Still, what an awful trade for the Kings.
Good luck to you all.

I honestly feel awful for y'all King fans. For the last few years Webber was the Kings, and to see Petrie and the Kings organization jettison him, along with his 21 pt, 10 reb, 5.5 asst production, in exchange for the services of three overpayed, journeyman stumblebums with grossly long contracts is truly shocking.
For the sake of y'all loyal fans, I truly hope that Petrie's gambit will placate and mollify whatever hurt feelings Peja has been holding on to since last Summer, and that whatever financial benefits the Maloof-owned Kings are ultimately able to accrue by trading off Webber's giant salary in exchange for three 'more easily tradable' large junk contracts, will end up eventually making this ridiculous, abominable-looking trade look like it was a decent 'move for the future'.
In the meantime, again let me say that I hate to see my Mavs eternal playoff rival Kings unfairly gutted like this, and this may sound silly, but I'm actually kind of sad that we probably won't get to see that great 'Rivals Week' Dirk/CWebb commercial anymore...

Ok it sucks that we didn't get anyone one right now for chris but hey we are not dead in the water. Remember last year when weber was out and we had the best record in the west?!? Then he came back and we slupped. I still think we have a shot plus now we can pick up another superstar later. I love chris but lets see what happens before we pass judgement.
Oh geez. I knew it was going to come to that.
Last year we had Brad Miller AND Vlade Divac. Brad was able to step in at PF and fill in quite nicely. If he does that this year, we have a gaping hole at C. Tag isn't capable of being a starting center, at least not in any really productive sense.
A shot now? At what? The lottery?
