Artest, Petrie staying with Kings
The Kings futures of small forward Ron Artest and basketball president Geoff Petrie appear likely to be extended. Artest, who can control his free-agency fate this summer, indicated via e-mail late Thursday night he's not planning to leave Sacramento. Also Thursday, Kings co-owner Joe Maloof said he intends to pick up the 2009-10 contract option for basketball president Geoff Petrie. Artest - who has until June 30 to exercise an early termination option in his contract for the 2008-09 season - said he and his agent are not plotting to explore free agency.

If Artest stays out of trouble, it doesn't make sense to trade him if he doesn't want to leave. They can keep the core of the team together, and try to add to a solid nucleus.

Artest needs to move on. The Kings have no chance of making the playoffs next year. Perhaps he can join the zoo commonly called the Knicks.

The team will never win anything with Artest. Trade him for anything you can get.

This team has sunk so low that it is now in the "who cares?" neck of the woods. Petrie should trade Artest for anything he can get. how about to Detroit (heh heh)?
