DONE DEAL: Miller/Salmons to Chicago (with Portland)

Wow, that'd be interesting.

Go Boston!!!! We just saved you some money with the Cassell trade....PLEASE take Nocioni off our hands!

True Story. Plus I wouldn't mind having Tony Allen or Big Baby. It would add some toughness to the Kings which has been lacking.

^^ Allen is injured for 10 weeks right now...but yeah, Allen/Big Baby would be nice off the bench!

Guys, Petrie WANTS Nocioni, for those that don't want to believe that....sorry. He also fits in much better style wise than Salmons.

I have no problem bringing him in. I think his value will increase once he starts playing here. I think by the end of the season Kings fans will be happy with him. Also, I think in the long run this gives Kevin more shoots. Both Miller and Salmons averaged quite a bit of shoots a game. I think at points that Salmons would take a lot of shoots away from Martin.

Added toughness? And how does Nocioni not bring that?

SacKingzzz got it right, and I really hate to say it, but Nocioni FITS IN better than Salmons.

Salmons is still > Noc however.

More like Salmons >>>>>>> Noc in EVERY WAY POSSIBLE (contract, age, player, etc)

Eh, you look at their production and you can see just how Nocioni fits. He's big, spot shoots, and rebounds. In the past if he averaged 36 mpg he'd be close to or above 7 rpg, not to mention a 15-16 ppg scorer. I can't wait to see what he can do with legit playing time. Sure Salmons might be more talented but it's all out fit, we don't need a ball stopper and basically another SG (which John is) out on the floor. Cisco and Nocioni could be the perfect compliments next to Martin.

The sad thing is...Salmons was our best "PG". It seemed like every game, he was the top assists man...will we see less assists now? If that's even possible...
