Is Vlade worse than PDA?
- Thread starter SLAB
- Start date
Vlade is not cut out to be GM, but Vivek is the real problem here. That is pretty obvious. He is a meddling owner who gets fascinated with players who might turn out to play like the Warriors. It is all bad, but Vivek is the main issue here. Vlade is just an incompetent puppet who is taking the blame for the incompetent dictator.
PDA is way better than Vlade.
Yes it was a mistake to let IT go, but the concerns about IT were real. Yes it was a mistake to fire Malone, but Malone wasn't an above average coach.
Vlade inherited Karl and decided to run with him. And he made whats arguably one of the worst trades in league history.
Enough of the dumb excuses for him already, just because he was once a part of the Kings.

The most important person for the franchise hired both of those losers. That's the worst.
Things aren't changing here until most of the local media regularly points out the Vivek is the real problem, what's happening here isn't remotely normal, and why and how moves these are stupid. That hasn't happens for a decade.
I give Carmichael Dave full credit for being pretty honest today, but the format for several show today also seemed to be vintage "Oh, today was bad. One host will acknowledge this is a problem so the angry can vent. The other will dust off the last 10 years of talking points and pivots for those ready to receive it. In a few days, we'll all go back to kissing the owners ring and hope for the best in the draft." Between KHTK desperately trying to keep the die hards engaged to make their budget work and the Bee being as rudderless as the Kings, it's going to take several more years and a lot more pain for this to bleed out.

Wow anyone who ever thought Vlade was competent watch that press conference, he sounds just like the mumbling idiot PDA.
Vivek is still calling the shots, always was. Vlade has no clue in regards to what a GM does.
I never believed Vlade was competent or the real GM but after watching that mess even I'm speechless.
There is no plan, its the sams BS shifting blame every year.
There was a better offer two days ago and Vlade said he thought offers would keep getting worse......Congrats Vlade, you played yourself.
Twitter says Vivek sees Steph Curry in Buddy Heild wow what a sad sad day.

That game was an aboration. The Kings aren't winning 5 games the rest of the way and their "pieces" have all showed jack and ****.
WCS? He was a major bust / Fire Vlade candidate just 10 games ago.
Heild? Unimpressive, a rookie that's nearly the same age as McBen.
Richardson? He made two shots in a row and made us excited once. So that's good.
PapaG? Skal? Both complete shots in the dark. Could they develop? Sure. Will they? Not likely.
Future picks? With this team's history, I don't have faith.

i think theyre both bad, but different bad. PDA was bad cuz he was bad at talent evaluation, trading, signing free agents, you know stuff you need to be a good gm. But he had experience so he should know better but was too stupid. Vlade is bad because he is way over his head and doesnt know the basics of being a gm.
I wonder how grant will spin it for his buddy vlade tho. i doubt he will throw him under the bus like he did pda since he loves getting rid of DMC. I actually like the low downs take on it and glad i listened to them. they seemed less biased and called out who they needed to when they needed to.

PDA and Vlade are both equally bad.
Vivek is calling the shots. No way Vlade trades DMC on his own. Vivek made him do it:
Vivek: Vlade?
Vlade: (Runs into Vivek's office.) Yes boss.
Vivek: I need for you to trade DeMarcus.
Vlade: I'm sorry. Say again?
Vivek: You heard me the first time. Do it and do it ((((((((((((((NOW))))))))))))).
