Stojakovic: Has been kicking some ass, averaging 24 points, 5 boards and 2.whatever assists, shooting 50% from the field, 42% from down town and 92% from the line as the main man on the Kings.
Would everybody consider him as one of the NBA's elite now? I know some questions need to be answered come playoff time.
Divac: Played pretty well today (26 pts, 7 assists against Blazers) and has been playing well all season, with 12ppg. Divac and Miller have combined as the best passing front court in the league, so I thought I'd give Divac a shoutout since he continues to be a solid contributor at age 35. His team play and unselfishness has certainly rubbed off on Brad Miller. Miller has been solid statistically, even better than solid, and I like to think that 'The Bearded' one has had some effect on his development.
Webber: Does anyone know what's going on with Chris Webber and how far off he is from returning? I saw an article on ESPN which disappeared before I got to read it and got to thinking about C-Webb. He has had a history of injuries throughout his career, legal troubles, and playoff failures - chocking so to speak at times. His talent is undeniable, but I'm thinking, do you guys think it might be time for the Kings to deal him?
Right now they are one game behind the Lakers (or Rapers if you prefer) for the league's best record and this, along with the their two big men dishing out plenty of assists, a reasonably well balanced scoring attack (Stojakovic not included) and their most important players shooting in the range of 45-50% from the field would suggest a team with great chemistry, a fairly cohesive unit which shares the ball and hits the open man. So... do they really need Chris Webber?




Once Divac retires after this year, that leaves Webber and Miller up front. Perhaps the Kings could deal him for a young relatively talented forward such as Marcus Fizer + whoever else. Perhaps Orlando would give them Howard and someone else + a first rounder? I know salaries need to be matched. It is early to be looking at the next draft, but this could be an advantage for the Kings.
Doug Christie, Tony Massenburg and Divac are old. A guy like Fizer might not fit in because he might be too selfish, but Howard (though around Webbers age) is a good passer and you could get a pick too and some other talent from Orlando. I'm aware that you're giving up a lot in Webber.
Just some suggestions/ramblings, if you have objections/or suggestions please share!
