Gilbert Arenas here we come
Jason Jones @mr_jasonjones
Petrie said adding more creativity to the backcourt is also a priority
Jason Jones @mr_jasonjones
Petrie said Kings still looking at ways to solidify the small forward position, looking at free agency/trades too.

Petrie said team hopes to make a move in the next couple of days.
Jason Jones confirms we "HOPE" to make a move, kingsfans have hoped there are moves for tooooo long.
This is Petrie's way of making it look like we are trying to do something when they are sitting on their hands, from Anderson, to Thompson, to Scola, etc.
Let's see who else could we add besides adding J. Akognon? I have a feeling we are going to get selfish-4$$ Gilbert Arenas, because we need more shooters, right?
Jones also mentions Gay was watching the kings game, but I like all kings fans haven't had my hopes up in what eight years (and counting).
Summer league has shown Jimmer is up there with Morrison, you know crap, and noone seems to mention Robinson is summer leagues leading rebounder at 8.5, remember only 40 minutes.
Kings trade Jimmer and Reke for a cheeseburger....
IT/Akognon
Thorton/G. Arenas
Cheeseburger/TWill/Honeycutt
JT/Robinson
Cousins/Hayes
Damn we suck......

i can see the bidding process now...
maloofs: we would like to bid $500,000
nba: sorry the minimum bid for scola is $3.3 million
maloofs: 3.3 million?!?!? no way, if we aren't going to pay that much for development fees for a brand new state of the art sports complex, we're not paying that for a player. is there any way we can bid for cash considerations?

Just a shot in the dark but I think Petrie goes after Tayshaun Prince since either Gay, Iggy, & Granger are out of the question. This is somewhat a short term fix at SF by trading some of our scraps. Another possibility is bring Matt Barnes home as well. As far as the back court creativity I see him offering a 1 yr deal to Aaron Brooks or Agent Zero
Something in the works for us generally means that we are after a once reasonably big name player on decline with a terrible contract. Probably someone like Prince or Villanueva!
Oh this creativity in the backcourt scares me because I know how much of a crush Petrie has on Aaron Brooks who is an unrestriced free agent.

Devin Eubanks: And welcome back to the Newlydraft Game. We've got Tyreke Evans in the back, just selected by the Sacramento Kings with the #4 overall pick and I'm sitting here with team President of Basketball Operations Geoff Petrie. Hello, Geoff!
Geoff Petrie: Hello, Devin.
Devin Eubanks: Now Geoff, as you know, we have asked Tyreke several questions. We're now going to ask you the same questions, and you get five points for guessing Tyreke's answer to each question. Are you ready to begin
Geoff Petrie: Yes, Devin.
Devin Eubanks: OK, our first question was: "Now that you have left Memphis, what are you going to miss the most?" Geoff? What did Tyreke answer?
Geoff Petrie: Well, his family is close, and his brothers are going to be spending a lot of time with him in Sacramento, so I'll have to guess that Tyreke said "Coach Calipari".
Devin Eubanks: Let's check with Tyreke. Tyreke, we asked you: "Now that you have left Memphis, what are you going to miss the most?" Your answer?
Tyreke Evans: That'd be 20-foot jump shots, Devin.
Devin Eubanks: Oh...sorry Geoff! No points!
