"The Denver Nuggets, who tried to obtain Ron Artest two years ago, should be interested. Artest, who by NBA standards is paid a relatively reasonable $7.4 million, would immediately improve their perimeter defense, enhance their low-post game and add experience in the tightly contested Western Conference. In return, Petrie is thought to be interested in a package consisting of young players and veterans with expiring contracts, including promising forward Linas Kleiza ($2.82 million through next season) and Eduardo Najera, whose $4.9 million deal expires this summer. He also remains intrigued by the New York Knicks' David Lee, an Isiah Thomas favorite who is said to be unavailable. Or he could simply allow Artest to complete his contract and pursue a sign-and-trade during the offseason". -- Sac Bee

kings are not getting lee...

Hope you are right there!!!

the move to the nuggets makes a lot of sense, especially with the lakers just making the move to get gasol. the nuggets adding artest to a team with camby and kmart gives it a ridiculously strong defensive front line.
