a 3 way trade involving Sacramento, Chicago, and LA which would send Kobe to Chicago, Ben Gordon and PJ Brown to Sacramento, and Artest and Ben Wallace (match made in heaven, eh?) to LA falls through.

Skip Bayless thinks a Chicago team with Hinrich, Kobe, Sefelosha, Joe Smith, Ben, and Nocioni would win the east...what a dumbass.
That is the stupidest trade I have ever heard. Every team gets worse.Quote:

not they ever did. I don't think Ben and Artest would be on the same team either and never will be.Quote:

the backcourt would be outstanding, but they'd still lack what they lack right now...
post scoring
not that keeping Ben would mean they'd score more...but still
almost seems like a lateral move...especially if Luol Deng takes the giant leap most expect him to take this year...
Wow! I don't remember making this thread! Anyway, Artest and Ben Wallace being on the same team is apparently what killed the deal. Having them on another team together, in LA, would be awesome though...for us!
The kings get butt fucked. They essentially have the same 2 players in Kevin Martin and Ben Gordon. Shooting guards who are one dimensional but are fucking good at what they do, scoring.
Maybe ben would play the poiint until bibby comes but they'd still lose their great defender in Artest.
the trade's off anyways...
