Bricklayer said:Just thought I'd throw this out there:
Word over here is that the Nets may be looking to move Zoran Planinic. Zoran who you say? And why should we care?
Well, Zoran is a young (23) Croatian 6'7" guard who is really more point guard than OG, but can play both. Not much of an athlete, plays old style Euro-defense unfortunately, but a creative fairly unselfish guard who can shoot (from everywhere but the line). Kings style player, both good and bad. I don't think he's ready to tear up the league or anything, but a guy who as a 6'7" backup PG could help, or as a creative OG with size could do a lot of the things Doug could do, and add in shooting as well.
Like most of these things, highly unlikely. And even if it did happen, minor in impact. But purely from a stylistic standpoint not out of the question.
Gary said:Peja - Bibby - KT, or Corliss to Indiana for Jermaine O'Neal - Anthony Johnson or J. Tinsley..
Would be
c-Miller
pf-O'Neal
sf-SAR
sg-Wells
pg-Tinsley or Johnson or Hart
The problem with this lineup is we have no outside threat, so maybe we could do a 3 team thing with Cleveland or something, and try to get Damon Jones. Maybe send Wells or something. Geez, I wish we never let Hedo go.

D-Mass said:The other problem is that Indiana would never do it.
Gary said:Bibby, Peja, and skinner/kt, or corliss would benefit both sides I believe. Artest could slide to SG, play Peja at SF, and either Start Pollard at C, or Croshere at PF. Bibby would be their PG (who is better than tinsley, and johnson). They can trade Jackson and Tinsley for a C or PF type player.
But yah it is far fetched. I can see Indiana shaking things up though if they don't win it all w/in the next few years.
Ruben Patterson couldn't believe what he was hearing Wednesday: After being told Monday to leave the Trail Blazers, the team now said it was going to suspend him for two games.
"For what?" an incredulous Patterson said Wednesday from his home in Columbus, Ohio. "They are the ones who told me to go home, so I went home. They are the ones who put me on the inactive list. I don't know what else to do. I mean, since they ain't going to play me, why don't they just trade me?"
Patterson could be traded today, his agent says, if Trail Blazers general manager John Nash was willing.
"There is not only interest in Ruben, there are trades out there," agent Dan Fegan said. "Two weeks ago New York offered Malik Rose; yeah, that's right, they offered a trade, but John Nash only wants short-term contracts. He could trade Ruben tomorrow."
Nash, however, is sticking to his game plan of making trades that are responsible, both from a fiscal and competitive standpoint. He said he is hopeful but skeptical a trade can be found that meets his parameters.
"We are hoping his agent can come up with something," Nash said.
The suspension was retroactive to Tuesday's game at Memphis, and coupled with Wednesday's game at Miami, Patterson no longer is suspended, only inactive. Nash said the Blazers came to the decision to suspend Patterson on Tuesday, taking an extra day after sending him home to review the facts.
The NBA played a part in the decision, voicing concern Monday that the Blazers were using the inactive list as a way to punish a player, which was against the spirit of the guidelines outlined in the new collective-bargaining agreement. However, Nash said the team was leaning toward suspending Patterson after Sunday's incident.
Patterson, who stands to lose $115,512 in salary, said he will file an appeal with the players association. He said Sunday's incident is being blown out of proportion.
"I didn't cuss Nate out like everybody thinks," Patterson said. "I did go at it with Nate, and I used some swear words, but I didn't cuss him out."

Interesting, iffy stuff there in Portland.
I'd like to see Patterson in Sac.
Kings113 said:Indeed. I was just talking about as a player, and don't think the behavior would be a problem.
BMiller52 said:How could you want that guy on the team with what he's done though?
Kings113 said:I've already stated how I feel on that.
Diabeticwonder said:While most Kings fans like to hate on Shaq, Kobe and Finley...they are all better persons by far than Patterson. Ruben truly is a bad person.
