Whether it's to blow the dust off a benchwarmer like Ime Udoka, or to inquire on Andres Nocioni...I think there's a good fit there. I would also love to see us try to get our hands on a young talented wing player like Donte Greene or Omri Casspi, but that may be a little out of the question. Then there's always the risky proposition of trading Ray for a younger Kevin Martin. The Kings have a young, talented starting frontline...but could definately use some depth in their frontcourt(i.e. Big Baby). Ideally, anyone of these guys could play alongside Quisy and E. Casa and provide some spacing for the bench.

The Kings have a few guys that I think our team would love to get, but all of them are well overpaid, so I think it's rather doubtful we'll make a move with them.

I think a guy like Udoka would fit. He strikes me as a cheaper alternative to Raja Bell. He can still defend and knock down the 3. Plus he has experience playing with a championship caliber team from when he played with the Spurs. Plus he could probably be had for next to nothing.

Like what? Who would you offer them, and why would they want him? Giddens? He should be playing in China? Hudson doesn't make enough to match salaries.

Are you asking me if Giddens should be playing in China? I thought someone like Hudson would interest them. I'm just throwing stuff at the wall. I'll leave the details up to those who clearly spend too much time posting here and get too worked up when minor trades for fringe players are brought up.

Sorry, Max. No question mark. I'm saying -- the guy should be playing in Tibet.

HAHA! Can't say I disagree with you on that one. Would've much rather had a young talented center like Deandre Jordan who would be a lot more enticing to a young team like the Kings...but then again, even Ainge has swung and missed in the draft recently. I still think a guy like Udoka is gonna be available similarly to how Cassel was available a couple of years ago or Joe Smith was last year. But by then Quisy will be back.

But my situations are still way more rational than you're 4 team-14 player trades for benchwarmers.
