Just combine Artest with a productive PF and good night again.

Like a productive PF is easy to acquire? We have one now, why trade that away along with an all-star caliber player for one guy who can destroy your team in less than a second.

You're making it looks like Kwame Brown was a Saint in Washington.. Ask Wizard fans how Kwame tried to destroy their team! Anyway the answer is that the one who can destroy your team in less than a second can also make your team a contender one in less than a second, if he focus on basketball. And with Phil Jackson coaching him i like his chances. Parker, Kobe, Artest (what a defence!!!!), PF, C is 2/5 a real contender team. Just wait 1-2 more season to sign a big guy and you have the best team in the NBA. That's the plan. With Brown and Odom it's all about "let's hope they'll turn into superstars". Way more risky, cause in 2 years you might have to rebuild that team again.

The plan is to acquire a top-notch superstar by 2007 or 2008, you dumbass. In the mean time, we have a lot of players with a lot of potential, the best basketball player in the world, and the best coach in the world to keep us a strong team. Kwame didn't destroy shit, everyone knows how Doug Collins and Michael Jordan would tag-team on him, and later Eddie Jordan had him in a bottemless pit...He's young as fuck, he still needs to learn and be coached. He has the skill, he has the talent, he has the physique, he has such a tremendous upside, and he's also been playing great this pre-season. He's going to be a beast...If Ron Artest reaches his full potential, he'll be great. If Kwame Brown reaches his full potential, he'll be AMAZING...There's just no reason in the world why this trade would be logical at all, given Odom & Kwame's upside and Artest's history, no fuckin way would this be a good trade...

Do you guys realize how much you went front to back over a fantasy trade that will NEVER happen? :D

We're not arguing about the trade, we're arguing about the logic behind the trade.

It's just that you 2 got that subtle beef going on in the last couple of days.. it's some petty shit to me, there are people dying out there, those things do happen. You 2 basically argue about Lamar Odom for days. I mean Im not the one to tell people what they should talk about, but yeah, sorry to interrupt.
