By etiolation Go To PostThe Kings might actually have a good squad. It takes a lot of what-ifs, but there's talent and experience far more than Boogie has ever had.
Plus a healthy Boogie, should no longer be a threat to LA's bottom 3 campaign.
By SamuraiX- Go To PostAre you fucking clowns forgetting that the only bigs we have right now are DMC and WCS?
Stay salty, chumps.
Who is salty about your teams dysfunction?
It's kind of weird, but I understand it. People keep saying that Boogie needs vets around him, so the Kings do it and it costs them too much. (The swaps were dumb, but the pick is ok.)
Now you have an experienced and talented team. Vlade is talling Karl to be the type of coach that gets the wins record to get the win record. Huge risk, but interesting.
The only question is "what's the ceiling?", but that's a strange question with the cap boom. I cannot tell.
Cousins is a top tier talent, like him or not, but hecannot be guarded one on one, and good defensively.
You're hoping Rondos knee repairs after two years and the chemistry fits. The real Q is Rondo and the bench guys. DC and Casspi were the best on-court chemistry guys last year.I really want Omri back because I feel he fills in gaps so well. If not, it may have big issues.
This is your hopeful Kingsfan post of the year. It may be the last, but hell. That's a good big man rotation.

By reilo Go To PostTrading for Hibbert gonna be just enough for the Lakers to miss out on a Top-3 pick.scotch scotch scotch
*sadface*
At this point, Kings will prob be a 35-40 win this season. Enough to put us between 11-14 in the lottery without a pick. If chemistry issues come up (most likely), then I'll be rooting for the tank after the All Star weekend but if the team looks like they're gelling then fuck the pick.
Yo...Royce White sighting today on the court in O-Town playing for the Clips. What the fuck. :|
He was fuckawful tho.

By etiolation Go To PostThe Kings might actually have a good squad. It takes a lot of what-ifs, but there's talent and experience far more than Boogie has ever had.Boogie and Karl want to murder each other, Collison and Rondo will reach that point soon, and you have Rudy Gay and an assortment of nondescript tweener types. It's going to be a train wreck.
By ratcliffja Go To PostSo there's actually no other starting centers available now?
JAVALE MCGEE.

The trade wasn't bad until the Kings gave up picks and swaps and shit. Lets be real Stauskas, Thompson and Landry's corpse isn't shit
The Kings' spacing when they run out a Rondo/Collison/Gay/Cousins/Koufos lineup is going to be amazing.
By knux-future Go To PostThe trade wasn't bad until the Kings gave up picks and swaps and shit. Lets be real Stauskas, Thompson and Landry's corpse isn't shitI think Stauskas will be a decent rotation player.
By pilonv1 Go To Postwtf
Sacramento is aimless right now
By Nori Chan Go To PostContract year Hibbert back to all star form! Russell shining to get ROY and Randle with MIP will ruin everything :(Randle can't be MIP he still a rookie.
Russell and him are going to fight for roy and Russell going to demand a trade at the all star break
By blackace Go To PostRandle can't be MIP he still a rookie.

So..
Its fighting in literal sense?
I'm ok with that
Nope. Randle was hurt in the first game of the season. He played 14 minutes.
He's ineligible for any rookie award.

I thought if a rookie misses more than 65 games due to injuries, he would still be eligible next season.

Ah well Reddit lied to me.
Fuck Reddit anyway.
By pilonv1 Go To PostO'Quinn is a great backup. Knicks fans gonna love him
Yep. He put in work while Vucevic was out for 4 weeks last season. Had double-doubles a few times, I think. Dude doesn't mind banging bodies and crashing. I liked watching him hustle
I drank way too much sangria and ate way too much bruschetta topping last night.
I ran out of bread, so I just kept eating the topping.

LaMarcus Aldridge, Brandon Roy, Greg Oden played 62 games together. The Blazers record? 50-12. RIP, Rip City.

Contrary to popular belief- Tobias Harris was NOT offered a max contract by the Sacramento Kings. He wasn't even offered a contract.
Carmichael Dave @CarmichaelDave 19m19 minutes ago Ripon, CA
The national media has been known to miss from time to time. But in the case of Tobias Harris, it's just incorrect. No contract offered.
That report never made sense since he never came in and there was no talk about him.

By IWMTB19 Go To PostThe Jazz might be trying to trade Lyles apparently?
I wouldn't be mad, but this situation is weird.
I wonder what they can get for him?
By IWMTB19 Go To PostThe Jazz might be trying to trade Lyles apparently?Wow. That's super awkward. Did you guys already have a welcoming presser with him?
I wouldn't be mad, but this situation is weird.
Knicks in talks with Jason Smith. Looking to ink Lou Amundson and Lance Thomas for vet minimum. I still think they need another guard though.
By ratcliffja Go To PostSo there's actually no other starting centers available now?
Dear Rip City, Thank you!
Those two words on a page don't begin to express the gratitude I have for the opportunity the entire Trail Blazers organization, my teammates, the media, and you fans gave me. The past nine years have been a blessing, and I will take all of the valuable memories with me as I head back home.
As I'm sure you can respect, my decision was a very personal one but not one I took lightly. Although I will be wearing a different uniform the next time I come back to Portland, please know that I will always hold my time in a Blazers uniform near and dear to my heart.
Your friend, LA
So how strong are the boos when SAS play their first game in Portland next season?
Vince Carter returning to Toronto? T-Mac returning to Orlando? LeBron returning to Cleveland?

Reilo on the right over there wouldn't hurt a fly
Portland gonna clap. Hell, Blazer fans might become Spurs fans when they see how shit Lillard is without that 5 star supporting cast.
And wtf - is there even a backup PG worth signing out on the market right now?
