King Delly Has Officially Arrived
- Thread starter QWERTYLICIOUS
- Start date
One year, partially guaranteed.
So, we got our 3rd string PG, unless we decide to let him go...
He's only 31, and while he can't shoot he can run a team. Has a reputation for defense. Should be a good mentor off the bench, but he only played 224 minutes last year. I would imagine a similar role for him here.
Defensive coach for Mitchell, Fox, Monk, TD and Huerter but with a jersey. I like the signing, he was my choice of all the worked out vets from minute 1. If we somehow traded for a difference making SF who had some defensive chops I’d call this offseason a home run. Right now it’s an easy double off the wall.
Interesting... I think so. https://basketball.realgm.com/national/countries/2/Australia/nba_players
I don't care what the "paper" says.
Because what the "paper" says means squat if we don't end up with this...

I will settle for 6th seed, and a full playoff series
Then can make a real run next season
6th seed? Heck, I'll settle with just making the "play-in" tournament. And then we can go for the 7th or 8th seed next season, and then go up from there.
Baby steps. I've lost way too much of my hair by expecting no worse than a 6th seed over the past handful of years. I would like to keep the very little hair that I do have left as a result of the constant hair pulling over the years...

I expect that much like last season Covid protocols will rip holes in rosters throughout the league. Deep bench is way more relevant than ever before. I have no idea if Delly can still play, but I am not sure any team can afford to fill slots with washed up vets that only serve as mentors. With that being said I really hope Delly can bring some more grit, fire and tenacity to the team in whatever min he gets. I loved him in Cleveland.
If he can shoot the 3, he should turn out to be one of the best players we could've possibly signed for this spot.
So it's a low risk decent upside move. Which is all yoiu can ask for on these types of deals.
He's obviously a gamer n tough and he's like 6'4", he's got a championship ring and has played under Coach Brown before. Can't hate on this move.
His NBL stats dont look bad, 38% from 3 on 121 attempts.

Very good to be sure but, perhaps you’re too young to remember, there was a special team assembled under Geoff Petrie back in the 98-99 season. Rick Adelman, Vlade, C Webb, J Will, and Peja. That was the start of the glorious Kings years in Sacramento. Would love to see this new squad bring back the magic of yesteryear. Will be chomping at the bit to see how this team shakes out in the year ahead.
It doesn't matter too much to me. He's the 15th man on the roster and only gets off the bench in case of injuries. I think he's much more a "locker-room" guy they brought in who knows Brown's system and can play some defense in a pinch if injuries/fouls happen.
Thankfully, we've long progressed past the point where we need Delly to be a 20 min/game guy a night. The role he's in now is what ZBO/VC/Ariza should have been.

Trade Fox and Barnes (Fox @ 23 ppg, 5.5 asst, 4 reb, 1.5 st on 45/35/74 split with a Sf/Pf Barnes at 16.5 ppg, 5 reb, 3 at on 45/40/80 split) so who you mortgaging your future on, Don Mitchell? Lillard?
Who are you making this trade for?
Armchair.
My guess is you are trading these 2 guys for LeBron on a 5 year fountain of youth serum right?
Or Giannis. Bet Milwaukie is lining up for this one.
