Well we added Bonzi to the mix so we have 4 capable players who can score in our starting lineup. We need somebody in the lineup who can do the dirty work for us which means hustling after the ball, sacrificing his body to get an extra pocession for us and Skinner is really the closest thing on our current roster who can do that. With 4 players in our starting lineup who can get 20 points on any given night, we can afford to have a player with the offensive capabilities like Skinner to start.

I think RA will probably start Thomas in front of Skinner at the PF, because our system is in love with players who can stick jump shots, but Skinner would be a better fit given the players we have in our starting lineup. If we keep Thomas, I wouldn't mind having him in the second unit as our offensive weapon, though highly unlikely.
Chris Bosh may be available since toronto drafted charlie villenuava, who plays the same position... he would be a great player to get- young, athletic, long, rebounder and shot blocking.... but for the kings to get him, they would definitley have to trade one of their core players.... either peja, bibby or miller would need to be included in any trade for him....
for toronto to trade bosh, they would almost certainly want the other team to take jalen rose's massive contract.... if the kings could package Peja (since he will be a free agent next year), Thomas and Corliss in a package for Chris Bosh and Jalen rose then toronto may make the trade.... but would the kings take such a huge move???... Bosh is a young and upcoming PF, he may be worth the risk, especially since Peja will be asking for max money next summer...

Yup. This could be a good move for the kings. Granted, Jalen Rose's contract is massive but i think it is down to 2 years. When his contract expires the kings will free up enough salary cap space to sign a significant free agent OR the kings may use the one-time amnesty clause and waive Rose(is this applicable for newly traded players?). Just a thought.
rumor has it the spurs are trying to trade rasho nesterovic for a small forward to backup bruce bowen, the spurs only glaring need right now... they are looking for a small forward with a smaller contract than rasho to trade for....
if we could get Rasho Nesterovic straight up for corliss williamson, would you do it???...
at the very least, he would be a great backup center... at best, he could start at center and allow brad to move over to power forward... if he backs up brad, he allows skinner to play his more natural position of PF... he definitly would give us some much needed rebounding and shot blocking....

The Rasho for Corliss idea is actively being discussed in the official trade thread: http://www.kingsfans.com/forums/showthread.php?p=177771#post177771
