The question you would have to ask is, and this is true too with the Lakers and Mosgov, WHO are you competing (bidding) against? Even if the Kings offered like 2 years / 20 million to Waiters, who else is willing to pay that??? The Thunder just added Oladipo to play SG and are allegedly poised to resign Durant AND Horford. They are not giving Waiters over $10 million per season. Then his reputation around the league is pretty much as immature guy who has overrated his skill set and takes terrible shots, so the number of teams willing to bid significantly on his services becomes pretty sparse. This is why the tweet by Jason Jones just comes across as a totally stupid, or the Kings are totally stupid, one or the other.
