Greene/BJax Press Conference

[killermamba]

I am assuming the Artest deal will officially be consumated sometime early tomorrow. Does anybody know when/if the press conference will be held? Thanks

Anything that doesn't go well with Artest is breaking news and his fault, so for there to be no info is a good thing. I looked on Sacbee.com and ESPN and no info is available.

The league will approve of it at 5:30PM EST, which is at 2:30PM for you pplz in Khali...

so once its approved the players will arrive in Sacramento within the next few days... expect a press conference then.

Well it's official, Bobby and Donte are on the front page of Kings.com. Looking forward to the press conference.

Bobby Jackson's Press Conference today at 1:00pm.

Bobby's back – The Kings will officially reintroduce Bobby Jackson at a 1 p.m. news conference today. Jackson returned to the Kings as part of the Artest trade after stints with Memphis, New Orleans and Houston.

Jackson will wear the same No. 24 jersey he wore during his first tenure in Sacramento. Theus said he had a good talk with Jackson recently and looks forward to what he brings to the Kings. "We always talk about leadership on this team – or lack thereof," Theus said. "And Bobby brings that."

Yes! My Jackson jersey will be relevant again.

hope it isnt as crappy as the last press conferene....you couldnt even hear anything

Well I've always rooted for the Kings and now I have another reason too. I was pumped about drafting Green but definatley not as excited as aquiring Ron Artest !! Honestly Im said it was Green who had to go but we are a team thats trying to win now and Green probably wouldnt have seen much PT in Houston. I think hes in a great situation in Sacramento now. Its obvious he is going to have more oppurtunities in Sacramento. I look foward to seeing 2-3 combo of Martin and Green !!!

Good luck

[KF10]

Yeah, thanks. I like Greene as well. And Sacramento is a right place for him in terms of receiving playing time. But yeah, I always rooted for the Rockets for some reason, even before Adelman came there. But for the incoming season, I will kinda root for the Rockets. We want that pick high as possible. No hard feelings.

I hope so, but we may be even deeper in terms of guaranteed playing time at the SF/PF spot than Houston was. Salmons, Garcia, Moore, Reef (?), Thompson, Williams....just a lot bodies there still. Now if Moore and Reef were out of the situation it begins to look a little more promising.

Yeah, I know. But I think Greene will be in the same situation as Hawes last year. Like he will receive limited minutes (10ish minutes) in the first half of the season. And the next half, he will receive like 20 minutes consistently.
