He's not good, and we blew the best opportunity the team has ever had to pick a superstar by selecting him. There is justification in being upset, especially with his dads entitlement and meddlesome rants.
A Lebron-esque line in a W versus being one of the biggest contributors to last night's loss. Round 1 ain't going to Bagley. Even if he does become a winning player, it's still looking like we picked the weakest link in last year's Top 5.
Fine, *team sport, but were splitting hairs here for no reason. Out of all the major team sports is anybody going to come up with an argument that one single person matters more in a different sport than basktball?
But in this case they're making the argument based solely on the fact Bagley... got injured?
Bagley missed 20 games last season (most of them coming after he hurt his knee getting blindsided by a dirty moving screen in the Bucks game) and Luka missed 10 games so it's not like either of them is Greg Oden or Karl Malone.
Injuries are always bad news, and this of course hurts the team long term and short term for development and chemistry.
But in the short term, I don't think this will hurt the team in the win/loss column. The team will weather this fine.
I am a Trae Young guy.. But yah.. Nah I like Fox, he grew on me so I wouldn't have traded him for Trae and another pick. But both Trae and Doncic are doing REALLY well.
The Team USA guys were RAVING about him. He averaged 21.2/11 per 36 as a rookie despite Dave Joerger seemingly forgetting he existed for stretches of the season. People talk about him like he's the second coming of Derrick Williams but Marvin still has shown as much potential as any other guy in the draft.
Has he though? Luka is good enough without people resorting to half-baked hyperbole cliches. "Outerworldly potential" means, what, he starts shooting lasers out of his eyes, can cure diseases with a single glance?
I'm glad I have you to tell me what i've watched. Some layups and 1 or two successful right hand jump hooks doesn't show a strong off hand. He only shot .507 on layups, so he struggles with anything efficiency wise that isn't a dunk. If he had a stronger off hand he would be a much stronger finisher on layups.
Now you're changing the goal post. Make up your mind. Do you want to argue that the 19 yo did not have a strong off-hand last year or that he did not use his off-hand. I saw every game last year and he did use his off hand, which others (like you) said he did not have.
It's not like we had much of a chance to make the playoffs anyway with most teams in the West being much better than us, but now we DEFINITELY won't make the playoffs.

When did KingsFans.com change to I hate“insert random Kings player”.com? All I see is Bagley sucks, bogie sucks, why did we sign Dedmon? He sucks. Bjelica getting minutes? He sucks. Ariza is playing too much, he sucks. Am I forgetting anyone?
