PrintIt's now 12:00 PM and the Deadline is passed. Big deadline for Kings fans. More news might come out in the next few hours but for now, all we know is that Kevin Martin/Sergio/Armstrong for Landry/Dorsey/Hughes is official.
Kevin Martin says goodbye on Sports 1140 KHTK today at noon on the Jim Kozimor show. If you want to listen, tune into 1140 AM or if you want to listen online, this link should work.
UPDATE (12:48 PM):
Per Sam Amick: Kings to acquire Washington's Dominic McGuire and cash for a future second round pick, a source close to the Wiz tells me.

Why would we want Hill?
Landry / JT are going to devour a lot of minutes, unless you like Hill better than JT.
What we've got here is, failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach.
Take a swing at a young guy...
He could develop, but maybe not. Either way, hes locked long term for cheap. Capspace doesn’t do us a lot of good if nobody is going to sign here / the Maloofs aren’t going to pay.

I have a bunch if thoughts. Where to start...
*By Kevins “It was time” “now the young guys can grow” tells me he wanted out.
*If the Rockets were willing to take on Jefferies I wonder if Geoff tried to cut out the Knicks and offered Nocionis/Benos contract? If he didn’t i’d be disappointed.
*This was a trade with the future in mind. 4th most cap space, another top pick, and an attractive young nucleus. The Kings are in a good position.
*Earlier I wondered if getting Landry was going to make JT available in another trade for say Amare or Boozer. Looks like that wasn’t the case.
*I’m sad to see him go but I’m glad Kevins going to a good team. I wish nothing but success for K-Mart!

This is it in a nutshell

Bring on the future! Lots to look forward to: how the young Kings jell for the rest of this season, the draft and the offseason trades/signing prospects. It will be interesting to see what this team looks like at the beginning of next season.

jeffires only has one more year and is a lockdown defender. not a terrible pickup. seriously, it would not have been terrible if we ended up with him. not like he is a garcia like albatross
At USC we're not snobs, we're just better than you.
It would prevent us from being able to make a run at Bosh and Co., so...
…REALLY!?! You would’ve taken him?

The other Question is:
Was the Martin Bashing via Peaches and inside job of attempting to build fan dissapointment in a player they anticipated moving before the deadline?
If yr not happy with the results, lower yr expectations.

Landry is only signed through next year.
Who’s to say we even resign him down the line if he asks for too much. This deal may end up just being Kmart for capspace.
team option is for 2011...so he's here for 1.5 years then
I guess all of us thought that Kmart was worth more.
1.5 and the chance to sign him to a decent extension after the CBA
Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
hard to say how much a guy like landry is worth
he can have a beno/salmons type contract but that’s as high as I’d go
his PER is 20
he’s a ton better than those guys; comparing them is embarrassing.
What we've got here is, failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach.
not comparing their skill as much as how much to pay him....
We’ve paid too much for a lot of guys in the past.
in the new CBA
you may be right, he may only be worth $6-7mil a year. Using old CBA numbers though, the guy is probably a $9mil or so a year player.

20 PER
is a lot less of a statement for a forward.
Not when he's not a particularly good rebounder.
PER weighs rebounding heavily. So when a forward has a high PER without being a good rebounder, that tells you he’s pretty damn good at scoring efficiently.

but I wonder if he’s playing a lot of minutes against other bench players. If he can keep his PER while starting that’d be impressive.

Just FYI on the McGuire for 2nd trade
It could be a conditional 2nd rounder that never ends up changing hands like with last years deal we did with Boston. Washington may want slightly more breathing room under the luxury tax, so they deal him and some cash to make sure they save even more cash. Kings do it for the cash, they probably have no interest in McGuire as a player.

i don't think it was fair either....
but it’s done
So it is official everybody
We are FUCKED! Totally screwed. We just lost our #1 trading chip of a player and got back another stretch 4.
I mean, how many god damn stretch 4s do we need. Furthermore, we have true PFs at 4 and now we won’t have the low post defensive C that we REALLY need.
The only way this deal worked for us was to fill a hole in our roster and IT DOESN’T DO THAT!
We just lost our best player. We just gave him away. We should have at least got David Lee out of this deal or at least some serious picks in the upcoming (BIG heavy) draft, but no… WTF, I mean seriously?
The Kings are sacrificing any and all pieces to save money. They seem to have no interest in winning games at all.
Petrie, you really blew this so bad!
Chill out Mustang
First off, your info on Landry is way wrong. He’s not anywhere near being a stretch 4. He’s a very efficient scorer, inside to mid-range. Kings haven’t had this efficient of a scoring big in a while.
Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
I am pissed
This is in no way a fair trade. We did not get equal value and gave up something that your own assessment had most of the league interested in. We could and should have gotten way better. No way around that.
Think about all the trade offers that were rumored
Would you rather have had Hedo? Jose Calderon? Josh Howard? Even the good guys that were rumored, Iggy and Okafor, are locked for a long time.
This gives us a young PF who scores almost as well as Al Jefferson for a quarter of the price and a shot at a top flight Free Agent, possibly Bosh, next year.
Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
Still, this was not even equal value.
I do like who we are getting, but he doesn’t fix the fact that we have an incomplete rosterr. It also isn’t a fair trade value wise. Not as bad as some, but not good.
GP screwed the pooch by not getting more.
I think it's fair value
That doesn’t automatically make it a good deal unless it changes the dynamic on the floor though. So we will see…
"You know what I consider mentally weak? Using your audience to settle a grudge with someone who had the audacity to publicly call you on your sh*t. The only thing more offensive is that Napear thinks we're all too stupid to see it for what it is." - TZ, Sactown Royalty
Ultimately,
we still don’t have a starting backcourt. And our starting frontcourt or frontcourt in general leaves something to be desired. Ironically the only legit starters on our team are our two first round rookies. Tyreke is obviously a legit starter and to everyone’s surprise, Casspi is a legit starting Small already. I meen as a starter the guy is avg. 15 and 6. And he’s only going to get better. I still believe both JT and Spence Will be legit starters by the end of next year. But untill the search ends for a legit top 15 shooting guard, I’ll be restless.
Please stop with the Bosh fantasy already
There are 3 teams on the east coast with more cap space than the Kings. If he goes anywhere, he’ll go to probably go to Miamin who only has $30M in contracts next season.

Kmart is a piece for a contending team…not a rebuilding one. Still i wish we got more for him.
Yes, we can agree on that.
Martin would be a perfect fit on a contender. He is just being wasted on our team which has many things that need fixing, but tons of potential. It kills me when people blame Martin for not being a better defender. We are one of the very worst defensive teams in the league, with or without Kevin. Let him go try his prime years in a more developed situation. We’ll see our roster at training camp next season and then we will know how good or bad this trade was. Landry does give us a little more scoring in the frontcourt. That should help Tyreke a little. We’ll see.

I am talking about the scoring of other team's bigs.
They have looked like all-stars against us even when they really aren’t that special and it is our low post D that has been a serious problem.
Nothing here fixes that.
That is the disappointment of the deadline.
All this time and they didn’t pick up a big, not even for Kevin. I would have thought that would be their first priority, but apparently, not. Seems their first priority was to dump Kevin.
To be the best, you have to do your best. Otherwise, you are only second-rate.
Landry's a big
Just not the type of big you want. I know some people were clamoring for Al Jefferson. Landry is more efficient at scoring than Jefferson.
Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
With this trade we gained:
An inside offensive force
lost a perimeter defensive liability
gained cap space
Did not lose offensive efficency because Landry is more efficent than Martin
I've got gas - yea, i'm enviromentally friendly
I knew what you meant and agree that our inside prsence is wanting. My point was that our main perimeter liability is now gone. That fixes one defensive problem
I've got gas - yea, i'm enviromentally friendly
We give up more down low than up high usually.
If you look at most games our backcourt usually outscores the other team and the reverse is true for our frontcourt.
yes but also
one of the reasons we give up so much inside is that opposing guards can get around our perimeter D
Sharlon Schoop - de favoriete Nederlandse honkbalspeler van McCovey Chronicles.
You always have to be one step ahead of your drunk friends
--Daisy Owl
I have looked at the numbers
The other teams bigs hurt us real bad. Sure some of it is off guard penetration, but a lot is bad D by our bigs.
Yes, other teams bigs are better
But, you failure to accept that most of the scoring from the other teams bigs is benefited by penetration in the paint from our poor perimiter defense, must be due to your fixation with boxscores.
So, here’s a box score for you. In the last 20 game (the most time I was willing to waste on your education) the opposing team scored an average of 32.5 ppg at the rim. The same teams scored an average of 33.7 ppg on long range 2’s and 3 pt shots.
The Kings need defensive help everywhere. Better exterior defense would lower scoring on the long range jumpers, and in the paint by limiting penetration. A low post defender is only going to lower scoring at the basket. And, low post shoot blockers who can play good man defense in the paint are next to impossible to acquire.
So, the quickest way to improve the overall team defense in not going to be finding some unkown unacquireable interior defensive stopper, so we might as well concentration on the exterior defense

This isn’t a reflection of him. It is a reflection of the low value we got for somebody that should have brought way better.
Really!?! Come on...
If there was value out there, we would’ve gotten it. The fact is Martin is oft-injured and I haven’t heard one analyst outside of Sac describe Martin as having huge value. Most of them are saying “Sacramento gets rid of Martin’s contract” and that Kevin is a better fit in Houston anyway.
We all overvalue Martin because we are fans. The guy hasn’t missed less than 20 games the last three seasons, tho.

Really?
A PF whose upside is 20/7 and perhaps mediocre defense, and that isn’t low value? The point is that we likely could have done better by letting Martin rebuild his value over the course of the season, and then dealing him over the summer or next season for a package that actually addressed the Kings core needs.
What we got
Is a low-post offensive threat who is quite likely a better player right now than Kevin Martin, and at a much lower salary. It gives the team the ability to be players in the free agent market in the offseason.
Whether you like it or not, that is fair value…again, whether it turns out to be a good trade remains to be seen.

We aren’t going to go out and get a defensive specialist that costs a lot of money. Petrie believes in guys that have skills, that can put the ball in the hole. If you can get a Vlade Divac that does these things and plays some defense – well that’s even better.

Probably the only guy on our roster
who knows how to get the ball into the hole within 4 feet. How many lay-ups have we missed this season?
There's nothing to fear but everything.
Millions upon millions
Or so it seems.

The devil is in the details
1) Landry is arguably a better player than Kevin Martin right now.
2) Whether we agree or disagree on a big name free agent coming to Sacramento, this trade appears to put them in position to at least be in the bidding.
3) Landry is, by all accounts, a very good clubhouse guy and a hardworker, and is a year younger than Kevin.
It’s going to be hard to fully evaluate this deal until we see the roster at the start of the 2010-2011 season, but I like it overall.

Doesn’t Landry only have one more season after this one? It’s going to be hard to fully evaluate this deal until we see what the Kings do with Landry. KMart for two years of Landry? Not worth it. KMart for the right to overpay Landry in two years? Not worth it. Other stuff? Maybe.

Agreed
There are some additional variables. But we’ve also dropped off two years of Martin’s contract at what…10 to 11 million per year?

Definitely
But it’s a consideration if Landry turns out to be an important piece to the puzzle.

Big "IF"
It could work, but giving away Martin on an IF doesn’t seem like it makes that IF the priority here.
This really just looks like the Maloof giving away any and all they can to save money.
Martin and Evans working together as a backcourt
Was still a fairly big “IF” as well…no?

why does everyone think landry is a stretch 4?
I think his rebounding has room to improve also. Plus an inside scorer is defintiely a gaping need on this team. JT blown layups + terrible Hawes hookshots have me welcoming Landry big time

We need at least one
that can play CONSISTANTLY. We have that now in Landry. Fact is, Shock and Hawes are not consistant players offensively or defensively. So, quit with the whole duplication argument. Landry instantly becomes our best front court player.

Has Bosh ever stated what he wants?
I assume he wants out of Canada, also that he wants to win a championship…(DUH) …..but has he given any clues as to who he wants to play with/where he wants to play? Is he even willing to consider joining a building team like ours, or does he want to “win now” with Wade or Lebron?
Bosh stated at All Star Weekend that he feels he's a number 1 guy
he might not want to be a sidekick to Lebron or Wade. If he came here, Tyreke would be his sidekick. So he’d have the star next to him, plus a lot of other talent, and he’d be the man
www.mancancook.net
let's hope this is true....
if things work out…this could be a nice kobe/shaq type thing.
Shaq was the better player when the partnership started and kobe towrads the end.
Evan’s seems like a humble kid…not a punk like kobe.
Actually
looking back at it, it seems that maybe Shaq was the problem. He’s left every team he’s been on on bad terms. He even stole the idea for Shaq Vs. from Nash. He’s been out of shape for years and has just finally started to accept his role.
www.mancancook.net
He has never implied he wants out of Canada
Everyone just assumes that because that’s what they want. There’s a few articles about how much he likes it there and even spends his off season there.
I do think he just wants to be on a better team though
Which the Raptors aren’t doing a good job of building around him.
"It's as Ann as the nose on plain's face."
Yeah, it's assumed
That all big name players want to leave Canada due to exchange rate issues, living outside the U.S. etc. But damn, I’ve been to Toronto a few times – I’d live there in a heartbeat. It’s not exactly Memphis North.
I could see a guy like Bosh staying if he felt they had the potential to be a contender in the long term.

Yes
I remember a particularly good article on how Bosh truly enjoys Toronto. I like this quote from Bosh:
“It’s funny you say that, because I was thinking about it. I was just looking at what people say and it’s like, ‘Chris is going to go here and play with him or this, this and that.’ I’m like, ‘Wait a minute.’ I feel like I should be built around. And maybe that’s just my ego talking, but I feel that I’m a very good player in this league and I’m only going to get better. So … maybe we should be getting somebody [in Toronto]."

so extremely frustrating. cant find a virus either so im confuesd.
Dominic Mcguire.
Great pick-up for you guys. He isn’t the best player in the world. Doesnt have a good jumpshot. Doesn’t have great ballhandling skills.
But he plays defense, crashes the boards, and he’s one of the most unselfish players in the league. Just an all-around hustle guy that you’re going to fall in love with.
So long Taser. it was nice having you in DC.
Geting it done.
I'm wondering if he will even play much here?
No offensive skills normally means very little playtime in Petrie-ville

he shouldn’t even suit up for you guys. He gives Michael Ruffin a run for his money.

Think the trade was to sell a draft pick.

I'm not going to lie
He’s offensively challenged when it comes to creating his own shots, but he’s efficient when he lets the points come to him instead. Mcguire is the guy you play to set up a presence around the boards, or if you just need to guard somebody one on one, which he’s efficient at doing.

All about the money. Every deal has been about saving money. Maloofs must be hurting worse than they want to admit.

Kevin wasn’t working here. The break up could have been a lot uglier if he had stayed past the deadline, but by all accounts, the break up was coming.

Mustang I know you have great Kings passion but you do know the NBA is a business, right?
what is wrong with saving money? There are no standings changers available at the moment but the Kings are positioned to acquire one. If not, they save money and it makes staying in Sacramento better for the owners. They have lowered ticket prices.
Really, it is ok to have money on the books

Yes, I am just questioning the precedence and priority
You can build a team and still save money, but when it looks like the priority is to save money at the expense of building a team that is something that a fan should, IMHO, be concerned about.
The only accounts of this I heard were from Napear
Otherwise and from all other accounts KMart is a stand up guy. I think he would have been fine with Evans if the team had been so inclined. I refuse to believe that Napear was in any way correct or able to provide an objective or unbiased POV about KMart.
it is just the sort of thing I could see happening if the wrong group of fans goes to the game

I'm gonna be attending the Rockets game
And I will clap and cheer and yell for as long as they let me when they announce Kevin Martin.
Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
I like Landry OK, but
He’s a little undersized but that’s not a big deal. He’s super old for only being in his third year. He’ll be 27 before the start of next season. Granted he’s just entered his prime, but as his minutes have gone up his first three seasons, his rebounds have stayed the same. That means, as he becomes more of a scoring asset, his overall defensive effort decreases. Not to mention, by the time JT is Landry’s age, JT will be a much better player than Landry is right now. Landry could blow up for 20ppg next season, but it doesn’t look like his boards will ever go above seven. While we get a nice cheap front court asset to help during JT and Spence’s development, we didn’t get the back-up defensive rebounder, many of us hoped for. And when will the revolving door at the 2guard stop. All that said, I’m patient and look forward to seeing what roster shows up for camp next season. After all we did free up a little money. Maybe we can still trade Beno and Noc in the off season etc. etc.

Does Kmart start on the rockets? Or is he now the 6th man?
I can’t see Martin starting over Ariza or Battier.
Martin starts at SG
and ends the Ariza as primary scorer experiment.

Ariza shouldn't be a primary scorer...
but his defense is worlds better than martin
And Ariza would be starting at SF

With Kenny Thomas remaining after trading deadline, the clock starts ticking toward buyout. He is in final year of deal worth $8.5 million.

Aykis, do you know if GP will be on the radio later?
I've got gas - yea, i'm enviromentally friendly
So, back to Bosh....
It seems we have the cash to get him, now how do we make this happen?
what does Kings/G.P./Maloofs have to do?
My guess is build the new arena, but is that going to happen in this shitty economy?
And would that even be enough?
Well...
They could build a new arena overnight, give out free tickets so the place is packed, create a time machine to go back and win a few titles, and helicopter lift the city to a warm-water large city, like say San Diego. That should help.
Miami, NYK, and Chicago can all offer max contracts. The Knicks and Heat have 2. Bosh is not coming to Sacramento.
The ONLY way we land Bosh....
…is if
1) He truly turns his back on Toronto
2) Is even just OKAY with Sacramento
3) We trump all other SnT offers to Toronto(meaning Thompson/Landry, some picks, perhaps Greene/Casspi and basically all our cap space gone as a TPE to Toronto.
Could it happen. Yeah, sure, maybe. Will it? NOPE

there are only 4 playes that remain

Okay, so the Grizz off Mayo/Hunter's expiring for Ellis...
…How the HELL did we not get in on that for Martin who’s a better player than Ellis?
That deal alone is better than Landry and change.
While I was in the minority wanting Martin traded
I was hoping he would be traded for an un protected lottery pick for the John Wall derby, I just don’t see the value here unless it is just a cash dump
Just read this interview
with David Thorpe. Brought an interesting question to mind…if Thorpe only trains a certain number of players per team, and Martin is gone, that means we can send another player to train with him, right?

Petrie
When I woke up this morning and saw that we had gotten Landry and TMAC I thought Petrie had the potential to hit a HR! I love Landry, but since TMAC had the $22 mill coming off the books I really thought we would be able to get a 1st round pick, or my pipe dream of TMAC for Iggy and Dalambert. Though I don’t like dalembert too much, he would be a big expiring contract next year for a playoff team looking for interior D. It seems like we let TMAC go for nothing though. I would have done KMART for Landry straight up, if the salaries would have matched. KMART and K9 though for Landry and TMAC would have been great, if we could have traded TMAC for something besides LARRY H.
Wow
Looks like the Warriors turned down Monta Ellis for O.J. Mayo plus expirings…
