I add my name -- I think that's the best deal you can get for Peja straight up.

Artest for Peja is barely a downgrade. Their contracts are similar, and Artest is one of the best defenders in the league, and is just as capable as Peja when it comes to scoring.
I wonder what Pacers are thinking.. oh well.
Pull the trigger already.

personally, i like the Vince and 1st Rounder for Peja and Christie trade idea better.
Nevertheless, if thats impossible, good trade

hmm...maybe..i dunno how Webber would react to him..personally i think they should trade Webber instead..Brad, Bibby, Peja, and Doug were the core last year..that is what should be kept 2gether...

Webber wants to stay.. Peja doesn't..
If you want to keep a player on your team who doesn't want to be there, so be it, you just won't get the full effort and potential out of him that you normally would...

I think kings should trade peja while his stocks are still high. RON ARTEST!! This kid is the best defensive player in the league and is very capable of scoring as well.
Peja, especially if he does't play with full effort, is not as good as Artest. I think Artest is a great fit.

Artest is nothing close to Peja in scoring, but his Defense Makes up for it. I hope there is Brad Miller and Ron Artest reunion in Sactown, and they can take on Shaq again
I give the okay on this one

From what it sounds like, it's basically a him or me situation like the Lakers was..I don't think Peja would mind staying if Webber was gone.

It is going to happen,

The Pacers qualify as a logical destination, given president Larry Bird's public admiration for Stojakovic and the fact his contract closely matches that of Artest.
Stojakovic's agent, David Bauman, told the Sacramento Bee that Bird had inquired about an Artest-Stojakovic deal in June. Friday, Bauman confirmed the Pacers' interest and Stojakovic's desire to leave the Kings.
"Larry Bird is a very tenacious general manager and he's going to do everything he can to make something happen," Bauman said in a telephone interview from Serbia and Montenegro, where Stojakovic has been making promotional appearances for the Serbian national team.
"I dealt with him in the draft. He's calling and pushing and coming up with ideas all the time."

Asked what changes he'd like to see Kings management make in the offseason, Webber asked for a player fitting Artest's description.
"I'd just like to see an aggressive defender at the three (small forward) spot," he said.
Bird, meanwhile, has stated the Pacers need more scoring and improved outside shooting to take pressure off Jermaine O'Neal around the basket. Bird has called Stojakovic "the best shooter in the NBA by far."
Stojakovic, 27, has hit .398 from 3-point range and .885 from the foul line in his six NBA seasons.
Stojakovic, whose girlfriend is due to give birth to their first child Aug. 15, has not stated a preference to play for a specific team, but Bauman said he would be happy with a trade to the Pacers.
"He's looking for a team that's successful and has a chance to win," Bauman said. "We did look at Indiana and Indiana does fit his parameters."
