When Mihm comes back he can bring a good bit with him to the Kings. He can give you 20+ points on any given night, but he is very prone to injury and foul trouble.
The Kings can do better then a backup center as you said whose not reliable and a rookie pg in Farmar.
So I guess it's just in video game were you can't trade injured players then? I don't know why the Kings would trade Artest to a division rival though. They could get raped by some other team if that's all they would ask for.

I didnt really read any of the article or anything so I dont really know what the topic is about, but I just read the headline so I am going to base it off of that.I honestly dont see the Lakers trading a guy like Farmar. IMO, in a couple years, he is going to be the starting PG for the Lakers. He can control a team, he is great at adjusting to the tempo of the game, he is a great shooter, and he takes smart shots. This guy just gives you a good vibe when he is out on the court. I dont want the Lakers to get a guy like Artest anyways. He is the TO of basketball, but worse IMO.
I watched the Knicks and Kings game the other night and Artest says he likes it in Sac-Town and said he doesn't want to be traded. I wouldn't like this though. Farmar has a high rate at starting next year since Smush's contract is up. Artest coming in will lower Walton's minutes down. Mihm is the only player we can play next year for Back-up C if Bynum plays. Kwame and Bynum get quick fouls so we are going to need Mihm next year. But the line-up would be:SmushKobeArtestLamarKwame/Bynum

I can't see the Kings trading Artest for so little, Farmar is a good young point guard and has potential, but they already have Bibby. So I don't really see this trade going through, but if it did happen I'm not sure how he can do in the triangle offense.
Yeah, I guess this deal is not happening. I haven't heard anything else and Artest looks like he is staying in Sac-town for the time being. After watching tonight's game and seeing Artest play, I don't think that he would fit in with the Lakers or even if the Kings would be trade him for Farmar and Mihm in the first place.
