    Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports says:

    “Sources say the Kings are also still open to trade possibilities, and Detroit and Utah are two teams eager to move up in the draft. The Pistons’ Tayshaun Prince could be intriguing to the Kings, who are eager to add a veteran small forward to the roster.”

    Two trades that I could see going down and who the Jazz and Pistons would pick at #5 and who the Kings would take at #7 and #9 :

    Trade #1: Pistons trade Tayshaun Prince and 7th pick to the Kings for Andres Nocioni, Donte Greene, and the 5th pick.

    In this case I think the Pistons would take DeMarcus Cousins with the 5th pick and the Kings would take Greg Monroe with the 7th pick.

    Trade #2: Jazz trade C.J. Miles, Kosta Koufos, Ronnie Price, and the 9th pick to the Kings for Andres Nocioni and the 5th pick. The Kings would buy-out Ronnie Price’s contract and then the Jazz would sign him.

    In this case I also think that the Jazz would take DeMarcus Cousins with the 5th pick and the Kings would take Aldrich or Whiteside with the 9th pick.

    Rosters with trade #1:

    Pistons

    PG Rodney Stuckey
    SG Ben Gordon
    SF Jonas Jerebko
    PF Charlie Villanueva
    C DeMarcus Cousins

    Kings

    PG Tyreke Evans
    SG Francisco Garcia
    SF Tayshaun Prince
    PF Jason Thompson
    C Greg Monroe

    Rosters with trade #2:

    Jazz

    PG Deron Williams
    SG Wesley Matthews
    SF Andrei Kirilenko/Andres Nocioni
    PF Paul Millsap
    C DeMarcus Cousins

    Kings

    PG Tyreke Evans
    SG Francisco Garcia
    SF C.J. Miles/Omri Casspi
    PF Jason Thompson
    C Cole Aldrich/Hassan Whiteside

    Thoughts?

    I really like this trade actually, both teams benefit really well, I am not sure though if the Kings want to give away Cousins though because from what I’ve heard they have high interest in him. Other then that this trade looks very sound and ideal.

    King should just take Cousins if he’s there for them – he fills their biggest hole. They’d be stupid to trade back unless they are convinced he’s a total head-case (but I’m not buying that).

    Draft Cousins at 5, take a SG or combo guard at 33, and if they want to add a veteran SF, do the Noc for Turkoglu deal if that’s a real possibility.

    I really like the trade for the pistons and the jazz, but i dont think the kings are going to give up a great player in DeMarcus Cousins

      Whatever happens you know Dumars will get the worst of it. Can’t believe he still has a job.

    That the Pistons would want to give up Prince and the 7 pick to only move up two spots. Not to mention Cousins could get drafted by New Jersey at 3 or Minnesota at 4 (making the assumption he’s their target to begin with). The Jazz wouldn’t take Cousins if you offered them the kid for a bag of pretzels and a twinkie. If he fell to nine in the draft, they would pass on him. They only draft good character guys. Now Monroe…that’s a possibility (it’s well known they covet him). They would also most likely have to offer up Kirilenko to get Sac Town to make that deal. Miles and scrubs, along with the 9th pick probably wouldn’t be enough.

    I think if both Monroe and Cousins were on the board they would take Monroe, they really like him, he had a great workout with them and he fits perfectly in their system. I think his workout is what’s fueling any trade speculation concerning the Jazz and the draft because before they seemed content to pick at 9 (not bad for having traded a useless Tom Gugliotta 6 years ago), but Monroe made them realize they’re in a position to really grab a difference-maker who would be great for them.

    And his contract, and get Monroe in return, I’d dance a jig on top of my house wearing only my boxers, and my house slippers.

    I don’t know if I should laugh or whatever but that would be a very stupid trade for the Kings. Prince? LOL!!! I’ll leave now. Thanks.
