Damn!
Wed Jan 25, 2006 7:55 am
yeah... fuckin insane.
how will peja exist with sarivis jaiviso38yhf0e08hif3wuoerhefouefvhcwo[P
i cant imagine peja in yellow and artest in purple... this is huge

I think its a waste for Indiana. The last thing Indiana needed was a softy on the defensive end. Peja's gonna produce about the same amounta points put thats about it in regards to statistical categires.
Also I am not sold on the thought of Artest fitting in well with the Kings style of basketball.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:08 am
Keep it in one thread, thread whore.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:12 am
I'm thinking the pacers will get some use of Peja this season and not re-sign him next year. Or they'll do a sign and trade. Peja really don't fit in Pacers system. He can't defend. He'll probably be their 3rd scoring option.
I expected a lot more from the trade.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:13 am
yeeeeee Peja finaly out of kings!!!!

(peja fan)
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:15 am
artest in the kings is better than peja in the pacers.

Same here. I expected a some significant shift in powers regarding the strong teams in the league, either for the team receiving Artest or the Pacers. I dont see any side getting much better.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:20 am
Artest should be in La in my opinion, The Kings aren't the Kings anymore so this isn't the best solution for both players, Pacers will lose on defence definitley!
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:31 am
Not sure about Pacers, but Kings should be a potent team now assuming they can stay healthy...oh wait this is the Kings.
I predict an ACL tear for Artest.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:35 am
Peja's probably here for salary reasons as it was said before. But I guess if he surprises the Pacers and helps make them elite... (not likely IMO)... then he could stay with the team.
Seems to me like it was just a desperate trade to get rid of Ron Ron.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:39 am
Pacers been preaching how they need that instant impact guy to help make that playoff push but I don't see this anywhere in this trade.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:43 am
JO + Peja to Minny for KG.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:44 am
Pedja is a one dimensional softy who can only shoot.
The Kings ran away with a steal in this trade skill-wise, but the Pacers get cap relief and rid themselves of a very volatile player.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:46 am
Well, now that I consider it, I think getting something is better than nothing for the Pacers since the guy wasnt even playing.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:57 am
Now I heard on ESPN that he doesnt want to go to Sacramento and he might even push for them to trade him.
One word...wow.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:57 am
i'm watching ESPN and omg
now artest don't want to go to the kings
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:59 am
they report that the kings are now rejecting the deal.
WOOOOWW
Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:59 am
The league should just ban him from the game.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 9:00 am
This guy is quite a character. It seems now that we all should still consider him a Pacer.
I am so very surprised by all this that is happening. I thought he was dying to get on the court but I guess I was wrong.
We should change the name of the thread to
ARTEST FOR PEJA: OFFICIALLY UNOFFICIAL

wow now hes not being traded.....
man artest is crazy...
Wed Jan 25, 2006 9:03 am
pacers should get rid of him now. Get the deal done and don't say anything. Artest is just a mad man.
Do the team doctors check for sanity when they do the check ups? if not they should start considering it.
Wed Jan 25, 2006 9:04 am
well he is still traded but he don't want to play for the kings
i think peja is still going to the pacers

I dont think it was approved by league officials just yet. Plus, ESPN just reported that the Maloofs are rejecting the deal upon hearing this news.
