Teams already looking at one shots and role players from the 10th pick onwards.

Hope mitch trades up for a pick and gets Skal

would be such a good fit at center next to Randle (they would compliment each others skillsets well, skal is a good shooter, good defender but not the strongest rebounder and not that strong whilst Randle is good back-to-back).

Not that they were doing so great before he got there, but Divac is about to push the Kings off the cliff.

I assume this can be apart of the draft talk?

Woj hasn't reported it I don't think, so I don't look into it.

Yeah, Marc Stein has been the most credible national media guy for the Kings over the past year. Everything he has reported has been legit.

Reminds me of the Rajon Rondo and Pau Gasol rumors. This DMC for Russell rumor is going to go on for another year or two.....

One thing is the Kings trying to get Russell, the Lakers listening is another.

Yeah Im not sure if those talks ended earlier this week which prompted Mitch to tell Russell dont worry about the trade rumors meaning nothing is happening, or if this is new speculation.

Luwawu or Skal at 32 thanks

actually why wait, trade Lou Williams + 32 for 19 (denver doesn't want it) and draft Skal and buy the 24th and get Luwawu

We worked out skal and he's still there, very weird he started last year as projected #1 pick.
