Lakers-Kings Begin Talks

[.GR]

Guard Michael Redd might be heading to Cleveland from Milwaukee, and the Lakers are talking to Sacramento for a deal involving Lamar Odom for Ron Artest and Kenny Thomas. If they fail there, the Lakers will go after Houston's Carl Landry on the free-agent market

I LOVE this trade. Getting rid of Thomas and Odom would expire the following offseason. Great for rebuilding.

If this trade would go through, I wonder how Kobe and Artest would co-exist.

Lakers would be the favorites no doubt.

sweet
we get that toughness and scoring we need at the 3 spot

Ron Artest isn't really a scorer though, it'd probably be hard for Kobe and Artest to coexhist...

he's a better scorer than Lamar

 

[CameronCrazy06]

True, but that also discards of the Lakers best rebounder...

They're getting Bynum back... I thought they needed Odom's rebounding, but with 2 7 footers, I doubt they'll miss it much

the Lakers got to the NBA Finals without Bynum being SOFT
Artest definitely adds some toughness to the Lakers which can only be a plus

Dont forget about overpaid Kenny. ^_^

rewards come with sacrifices

Dang Michael Redd and LeBron James would be nice together.
