Possible Ron Artest Trades

[TurnNiggazDreams2Flames]

INDIANA trades Ron Artest, Jamal Tinsley to NEW YORK


NEW YORK trades Stephon Marbury and Trevor Ariza to INDIANA

[remingtonbo2001]

Hmmm.....Pacer management would have to be smoking some serious crack to pull that trade out of their pockets. Great trade for the Knicks. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to see a Tim Thomas- Ron Artest Trade. I don't think Ron would mind playing for the Bulls, considering it is under new and improved management. Similar coaching styles, but not identical. Skiles might be more hard-lined. Chicago would take his ass in. Tim Thomas would take the chance to play for a Championship caliber team. I would think he might even fit well into the mix. Good trade? I believe the contracts would be similarly close. Anyone know?

[TurnNiggazDreams2Flames]

TT's contract is close to double Artest. Paxson will not take Artest back. The Bulls are a team on the rise, filled with young players. Deng and Nocioni cover the SF position just fine.

Artest would love to play for the Knicks who have trouble scoring at times, need a true SF, and is in his hometown.

did you make this trade up or did you hear the rumor?

[exstatic]

If Artest hates playingt in the Indy system, because it's "too confining" wait unitl he gets a load of Larry Brown's offense.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

It is HIGHLY likely that Artest will be dealt to NY. I can guarantee you that much.

Sure it's "highly likely". New York will trade for anybody, heck they took Rose off our hands didn't they? That's like saying that it's highly likely that Atlanta will not make the playoffs this year and that you have a reliable source who can back you up. You crack me up GiG!

I doubt that Indiana will part with him, but I've been surprised before.

I'd be surprised to see the Pacers trade him to a team in the East unless it would be to a non-contender like Toronto or the Hawks.

I don't see why Indiana would want Marbury.

[Kori Ellis]

I think they'll definitely trade him. But he's basically asked to go to New York, so I don't think that they are going to jump to abide by his wishes (unless they can get rid of Croshere's contract too). As someone else said in this thread, they'll try to deal him to the Western Conference and to a non-contender.

[Kori Ellis]

By the way G_i_G, Artest and Tinsley make a total of about $11M while Marbury and Ariza total $17M. So there'd have to be more involved to the trade than that.

[leemajors]

he is not going to the eastern conference.

[exstatic]

He will get traded somewhere where they can get
a) a young player and/or unprotected pick.
AND
b) the shortest matching veteran contract in return, if required, as deal ballast.

They can't get value for him. That's a given at $6.8M. What they can get is potential, and no bad contracts in return. Marubry would be a horrible pickup. He's just as bad for chemistry as Ron, and makes easily twice as much, and has YEARS left on that deal.

I'd rather have tinsley than Me-bary

I hope the trade happens just so I can watch he and Brown duke it out. I can see it now.

[ALVAREZ6]

Artest, Jermaine,Tinsley for Zaza Pechulia is a rumor that I heard.

[Dre_7]

GiG, stop using racial slurs!

[mrpach]

for lamar odom?

[tsb2000]

Latest from espn was he was going to NY for Q-Rich.

"Turn zDreams2Flames"

"Im off tha chain ."


Last time I checked, the N-Word was racial.

[Kori Ellis]

When the did I use a racial slur?

Many actual black people are offended by a wigger like you using " z" in your user name. So please don't use it anymore.

[Kori Ellis]

All blacks are different. Some care, some dont. I dont like ya all callin me , but do i complain? No. That SN is a lyric in a Jay-Z song.

No one calls you anything racial. Several black people have complained. Just don't use it.

Back to the topic of Artest.

[Dre_7]

I am not black, but my cousin is. And he cant stand it when white people use the N-Word.

[Kori Ellis]

I am not black, but my cousin is. And he cant stand it when white people use the N-Word.

Well I can't stand it either and I'm not black. So it won't be used anymore.

So do the Kings even want Artest? Or is Peja for Artest just a media fabrication?

[sickdsm]

That wouldn't go over at all for the kings. Miller is a nut already.
