Right off the bat, it will affect the offensive game. Artest is nowhere near the offensive player Stojakovic is, but then again Stojakovic is nowhere near the defender Artest is. It may result only in the Kings not being as high a scoring team but the added defense would probably negate that. I think the real problems would be how things would mesh amongst the players, could be fine and could be disasterous. really there is no way of knowing what would happen untill you try it... but we aint there just yet.....
IT depends if the Kigsn have a differnt sysstem this year. If Adelman coaches a more defensive oriented game, than it will result in good, however our offense will suffer. Currently, it will make our offence suffer, but I don't think one more player known for defense can help the King's defense out alot. The Kings are still and probably alwaysa will be a offense oriented team.
i think when larry bird likes you and you are being compared to him by people around the league, your shooting qualities are far from overrated.
the kings would have 2 defensive guys in christie and artest. the trade wont make the team better/worse. its actually pretty equal trade. but i'd love to see rick fox meet up w/ christie. if they fight, im sure artest will help christie and destroy rick fox.
