Chad ford rumor--C's/Kings

[Who]

I don't believe this though: Nocioni's contract goes for the next 4 seasons. Not signing Posey and now eating Nocioni's contract would be weird.

Agreed -- Not convinced Danny is willing to take that contract.

I'd echo what everybody else said - very good trade if we get Joe Smith, not a good trade if we don't.  

Interesting that Pruitt/Giddens/Walker aren't in the rumor.  That means one of two things:  that Danny wants to hang onto them, or that the Kings have no interest in them.

How can Sacramento do a 4-for-1?

Also, this trade makes no sense, in that it makes us weaker in the front court.  Nocioni is the type of player we could use, but only if Joe Smith was coming to fill BBD's slot.

TP, same thing i was thinking. Unless the wink wink, nod nod, is in with regardes to joe smith and the angry pickles. if thats the case, do it.

yup

One also has to assume that if a deal like this gets made, someone like Scal gets bought out or released, so I'm sure there would be more to it before a trade like this gets made... depleting our roster.

Well, wasn't the issue with Posey's contract the value, not the length?

Nocioni ought to still be productive in the last non-option year of his deal. Posey, not so much.

P.S. Nocioni and Smith play good ball together in chicago too..

nocioni can attach the basket too
his slashing is underrated

I am all for this, but I am going to have to take your word regarding your sister.

the issue with posey, as the team mentioned, was that the final two years of his deal he will be a very old player.

not an issue with noch.

so our smallest weakness gets filled, then our two biggest weaknesses get even bigger. NBA analists are the worst, at least on the national level, they know nothing about the makings of a team only the starting 5 and whoever played good on the TNT games.

Agreed and, IMO, we'd need another swingman. I like what Nocioni brings, but he's a liability defending the perimeter.

It's not weird at all. Posey wasn't signed for so long because of his age, but Nocioni is three years younger.

I don't think this gets done based on the Minnesota deal.  It would be the 3rd deal for the Kings.

Nocioni's contract is also front loaded. He gets cheaper to hold onto each year.

A Super Scal.

I didn't realize his contract was like that.

"Super Scal"? I don't see much of a parallel to Scal, but I'm not one to lump all white players together. Nocioni is a bad@@@ and has a lot more he can do on offense.
