Per Ric Bucher on ESPN just now:

Lakers and Bobcats talking about Artest for Wallace (possibly S. Jackson) swap.

Artest for Crash. Do it Mitch! But i don't know if it'll work salary wise.

Isn't Crash a much worse shooter than Ron? Would work if we move Barnes into the starting line up.

Either these rumors are totally false or none of our beat writers seem even remotely interested in them. No mention on anything from the K-Bros, Ding or Plaschke.

I hate ESPN. For the next couple of weeks we're going to have to listen to stupid **** like this.

Artest for Crash? GTFO. That's as realistic as me signing a 10-day contract with the Lakers.

yea Crash wouldn't solve Artest offensive issues, but he is a bit better defensively and much more athletic.....but yes very unrealistic.

I would take SJax first too. Bucher reported this so it 100% will not happen.

The Lakers with Captain Jack and/or Gerald Wallace would be real nice.

More the reason why Michael Jordan will not assist Kobe on his quest to his 6th ring.

Artest's attitude during last night's game might've been the last nail on the coffin for his career in purple and gold.

I personally think Wallace is a better move than Jackson mainly because he's 4 yrs younger than Jackson.
