Artest will miss a month at most. The crap part is that it's for Boki, who is a marginal player in an 18 team league. Why not just drop Artest if you're so eager to get rid of him?

I suspect he'll be out longer than a month, but no one will know for sure until they open him up. If someone misses a month at this point, that's roughly 30% of his value lost. I guess I'll just offer someone else for Artest then.

I feel like I returned from the bar to find some guy dancing with my wife. I'm gonna need some friends to help beat you up, KC.

Well I woulda rejected it with my samurai quickness, so no harm no foul. Marbury will probably play in the upcoming week.
So, let's recap: (1) Dumpy works out a tentative trade for Artest. (2) KC complains about the trade, and lobbies for it to be vetoed. (3) Dumpy indicates taht if the trade is, indeed, vetoed, he'll submit a new trade offer using a different player. (3) Within MINUTES of the trade being vetoed, KC submits his own offer for Artest, which is tentatively accepted. If this doesn't scream "abuse" and "self-dealing," I don't know what does. Even if Marbury-for-Artest is, on its face, fair, this trade should be veotoed for no other reason than the fact that KC evidently used the veto process to his advantage. He would NEVER had made such an offer had Dumpy not contacted Legacy first. He is a bottom-feeding scum-sucking parasite. Dumpy obviously should be given an opportunity to work out a deal for Artest that is acceptable to everyone. If I'm unable to come to some agreement with Legacy, then KC--or someone else--can do what he wants. Until then, what KC is doing is unethical, unwarranted, and should not be permitted.
Point me to the rulebook, chief! unethical, unwarranted, should not be permitted? LOL I'm a bottom feeding, scum-sucking parasite? F*ck you, brah.
