Re: CHUCK HAYES
I love the idea of adding Chuck Hayes. He's coming off his best season, is just entering his prime and brings the work ethic and leadership our young guys need to be influenced by. He fills a perfect role for the Kings and that is just as valuable as adding a starter IMO. I'd love to see us keep Dally as well. Maybe dump JT for another PG (Teague?). I don't see JT in the long term plans for this team, it will be interesting to see if Petrie looks to deal him.

Re: CHUCK HAYES
Just saw this one on hoopshype:
Dalembert told FOX Sports Florida last week three teams he’s targeting are the Heat, New York and Houston. It sounds as if the Rockets, with a gaping hole at center due to the retirement of Yao Ming and plenty of money to spend in free agency, are his preference at this point. “Houston, that one is the best," said Dalembert. He later added, “I’m interested in the Rockets. They have a good team over there, a running team."

My feeling since TraderJoe mentioned Daly to Houston is that is where he'll end up because they need a C and have more than the MLE if they let Hayes go. Hmmm...can you do double sign and trades?

Re: CHUCK HAYES
The thought of getting into a bidding war with Houston scares me. I'd rather pony up the cash for Nene than sign Dally to big time money. The more I think about it Houston may be doing us a favor.

Like I've been saying for months now, I really don't think Petrie wants to re-sign Dalembert. Depending on what the free agency chances are now that numbers are out there it could change, but it just seems like a very un "Petrie" like move for him to re-sign Dalembert unless it's a steal of a deal. I also think Dalembert has gotten the idea and if he didn't after the kind of love affair in the papers the Maloofs were having about re-signing Thornton where Daly's name kind of got tagged in there at the end I don't know what it would take.
Also I would like to add that I agree Dalembert is good for this team but it comes at what price?

Re: CHUCK HAYES
It wouldn't surprise me one bit to see Petrie go hard at Chandler or Nene. We always seem to be the darkhorse that nobody mentions. The last time we had this much cap space we ended up with a big man named Vlade Divac. Just sayin...

Chuck Hayes to Sac is a done deal.

If you want media confirmation you'll have to wait. But it's done.

Re: CHUCK HAYES
Should be pretty cheap at least. And the nice part here is that he can pester the shift out of PF's I stead of trying to guard centers.
I go with the guys out there that say go ahead and throw max at Gasol (who is actually worth a four year max) and dare Heisley to actually pay him.

Well if its done this early, I feel the Kings must have offered LOTS of money.

Re: CHUCK HAYES
It's not only that but he is such a liability on offense it's like playing 4 on 5 on offense. The other teams D can double up on our scorers with no hesitation. Not to mention he is a terrible free throw shooter. I can't remember how many games we lost by missing free throws last year <sigh> this blows.

I agree . I have heard we had some interest in him . Though I think he is a mistake . That said I wonder how much truth to the user that said it was done really is ? Usually if a deal is done it will come out via espn , sportwriters etc. . So far nothing . Hope it just a hoax ?

Re: CHUCK HAYES
It isn't like we are going to lose offense if we insert Hayes on court. Sammy wasn't really a factor offensively other than dunking, tip ins & the occasional J.
To me, this would make it easier to distribute shots to the other guys. Especially, a guy like Salmons will need his.

Yes but again Hayes is way undersized and IMO he would be a better fit if he played a smaller position for his size . I do not feel he would be much of a factor defensively playing against the majority being significantly taller at the same position .
I would feel better if its a 1 year deal but I seriously doubt that.

Sammy actually showed some good offense last year. I was impressed with his mid jump shot, I never thought he had that in his game. Sam had a much better offensive game than Hayes IMO. But the point is we aren't losing offense directly it's that having Hayes in the lineup allows the other team to play off him more so our scorers will have a harder time scoring. Daly at least kept the other teams defense in check to a certain degree.
