What are the Kings going to do with veteran forward Kenny Thomas? Thomas, who nursed a strained back Tuesday during the team's first workout at its practice facility, certainly wanted to know.

Marc Stein, that master of dangling hope in front of the faces of frustrated fans, floated Cleveland as a possible endpoint of Ron Artest Fire Sale III, noting that Wally Sczerbiak’s expiring contract and expired legs would make sense in a swap for Artest and Kenny Thomas. You probably like this deal. Here’s why you [...]

Scott Howard-Cooper (can I just call him Scoop for short') wrote a well-researched article about how much it will cost the Lakers to take on Kenny Thomas with Ron Artest. The jist of the article is that the Lakers would take an enormous luxury tax hit by including Kenny Thomas Thomas in the deal for Lamar Odom. Scoop notes that substituting Qunicy Douby and Shelden Williams for K9 would save the Lakers...

LA. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. If Los Angeles can swing Lamar Odom for Ron Artest and Kenny Thomas’s contract, they should do it in a heartbeat. Ron Ron has gone a little nuts the past couple weeks, as he always does, but this was a far more mature temper tantrum. Artest [...]

You gotta love "Pick a name" Artest. Also an interesting take from the Bee's Sam Amick about how Ronny Turiaf's offer sheet could be tied into whether the Lakers would make the rumored LO for Bill Bill/Kenny Thomas trade. AK

Filed under: Knicks , 76ers , NBA Media Watch , New York , Philadelphia Of all the ousted NBA general managers who get their names tossed into vacancy rumors, Billy King would seem to be the most unlikely. King's oeuvre is known well; Kenny Thomas, Willie Green, Samuel Dalembert and Chris Webber are just some of the names to keep in mind. That doesn't stop Frank Isola of the New York Daily News from...

Chris Sheridan's ESPN trade deadline preview has a ton of rumors regarding Ron Artest and the Kings. He starts by saying Artest is the player most likely to be traded, and that the recent rumors are too small -- the Kings are really trying to attach Kenny Thomas' contract to Ron-Ron. Here are the rumors he offers up: 1. Artest & K-9 (woof!) for Linas Kleiza and Nene. An interesting combination of previous...

Pau Gasol is an All-Star. An All-Star big man, mind you. He can be had for an expiring contract, a young prospect-type player, and two draft picks. Shawn Marion is an All-Star. He can be had for the goliath contract of Shaquille O’Neal. Mike Bibby is not an All-Star. Neither is Mike Miller. So what does it [...]
