The ULTIMATE Kings prediction game

dominant team

PG - Mike Bibby
SG - Marquis Daniels
SF - Peja Stojakovic
PF - Brad Miller
C - Chris Kaman

Bench: 7 players.
Bobby Jackson
Joel Przybilla
Donyell Marshall
Greg Ostertag
Eddie House
Zeljko Rebracca

Cuttino Mobley- agrees to a sign and trade to La for Chris Kaman and Zeljko Rebracca.

Darius Songaila- opts out

Kenny Thomas- Traded to the Dallas Mavericks for Marquis Daniels

Brian Skinner and Kevin Martin- Traded to toronto for donyell marshall

Erik Daniels and 2005 pick- traded to portland for Joel Przybilla

I didnt make sure the salaries worked but they were pretty close. This will prolly not happen but it would be amazing if it did. Chris kaman as our center we could move Miller to PF and with the addition of Marqius Daniels in the starting lineup and Joel Przybilla, donyell Marshall, Bobby jackson, Zeljko Rebracca, and maruice Evans coming off the bench the kings of Sacramento would be kings of the NBA in 05.

Starters:

PF Stromile Swift (via Memphis Sign and Trade)
SF Peja Stojakovic
C Brad Miller
SG Bonzi Wells (via Memphis Sign and Trade)
PG Mike Bibby

Bench:
F Kenny Thomas
G Bobby Jackson
F Corliss Williamson
C Greg Ostertag
G Kevin Martin
G Eddie House
F Wayne Seimens (Kansas/ Draft)

Trades: Sign and Trade; Mobley and Skinner (possibly Thomas, Tag or williamson instead) to Memphis for resigned Stromile Swift and Bonzi Wells

Departures: Mo Evans will get a $2-3 mil per year offer from another club, and the kings will decline to match (see Jim Jackson and luxury tax), Songaila will get $3-4mil per year offer from another team and the kings will decline to match (see Jim Jackson and luxury tax)

Staying: Eddie House, willing to sign for near vets. minimum, thus staying with kings

I really have no idea. I'm gonna post what is feasible and what I would like to see. I'm sure Petrie will do something none of us expect but all of us will like anyway, so here goes.


PG Mike Bibby
SG Mike Miller
SF Shane Battier
PF Darius Songaila
C Brad Miller

Bench:
G Bobby Jackson
G Maurice Evans
PF Wayne Simien (Draft PF Kansas)
C Greg Ostertag
PG Eddie House
F Brian Skinner
C Jake Tsakalidis

I'm assuming we make a blockbuster trade with Memphis. I've had a hunch since the last playoff game we were gonna get Mike Miller so I'm sticking with that here. Trade Stojakovic, Williamson, Thomas for Miller, Battier, Tsakalidis. Leaves us a little thin at PF and really doesn't address our interior issues just like the last couple years. I honestly don't think this will be a surprise to anyone if we don't improve in those areas. We haven't really made much effort to improve in those areas anyway. Hopefully Simien will be able to contribute off the bench right away and provide something inside.

Somehow we get rid of Thomas/Williamson for low draft picks. Peja gets traded for Artest... ;)

Bench:

Kenny Thomas - SF/PF
Darius Songalia - PF
Eddie House - PG
Greg Ostertag - C
Kevin Martin - SG
Mickael Gelabele - SG/SF (draft)
Brian Skinner - PF/C

Unfortunately nothing to make you want to go and scream with joy at first sight, but might surprise in the end.

This has the Kings giving Songalia an increase and retaining Eddie House. The Kings also let Mobley walk to offset the other increases elsewhere. The only trade is Williamson and Jackson along with part of the trade exceptions in a sign and trade with Portland. Portland does this to get a veteran point guard and model citizen, both items they could use.

back up: eddie house, greg ostertag, Scott Padgett, Zeljko Rebraca,

basically, i think thats it, and i hate to say it but i think the kings roster is gonna look like that: a lot of common names but none that stick out.

REMINDER: PLEASE put the players whole names. There are more than one Jackson and Martin in the league and while you may think it's obvious, if we end up with Sam Jackson and Derrick Martin I don't want to argue about "that's who I meant!"

;)
 
Starters:
PG - Mike Bibby

Sign and trade Cuttino and B Jackson for Michael Redd (with something else, not sure what though...) and Memphis will sign and trade Stromile Swift for Corliss Williamson and Kenny Thomas (and some fillers in there).

For everyone: PLEASE follow the format. If I'm going to be checking all these predictions, it's almost impossible unless people do it the same way. I'm not trying to be a pain or anything...but I would like to be able to check each prediction when the time comes without having to continually revise what I'm looking it.

Thanks!
 
If you send me a PM, I'll make the changes to reflect the whole player names.

GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENT:

PLEASE - If you're going to participate, take the time to read the first post in the thread. I tried to make it pretty specific so we won't have problems further down the line. Having run the regular prediction game for quite a while, I'm pretty familiar with common errors, complaints, etc.

Thanks to everyone.

Hard to know if Petrie is in a trading mood or not. If we have Brad all year in the middle, we're back near the top. Bibby becomes interesting at he is almost more of a SG and definitely the "go to" guy late. Get a top PG and put Bibby as a SG? hmmm. Here is quiet (Petrie not making any trades) list:

PG - Mike Bibby
SG - Maurice Evans
SF - Pedja Stojakovic
PF - Kenny Thomas
C - Brad Miller
Bench - Bobby Jackson, Eddie House, Kevin Martin, Dejan Bodiroga, Corliss Williamson, Darius Songaila, Brian Skinner.

(acknowledged that this was edited to follow the rules. My bad. Now OK) :o

Hey, if they can't be bothered to follow the directions, just don't accept their predictions; throw them out with the bathwater, so to speak.
 
I'd like to give as many people as possible the opportunity to participate. I'm just reminding them to read the rules first... having done that a couple of times, I may now follow your suggestion.

How is it possible that we keep Bibby and Peja and get Kevin? Lets just say Geoff Petrie knows what hes doing. :)
