"I needed a new start"

"I needed a new start."

As did we fans.

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

"I needed a new start"

We all did.

 

[New Era]

Of course went off in the 1st half tonight....he looks all motivated and happy now!

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Good for him, adversity shouldn't kick in any time before his current contract ends there.

 

[Letsgokings13]

He oh soooo mailed it in the last 2 months for the most part

Found it interesting that Mark Jones said Fox called Castle and said “I’m coming there and don’t want you included in the trade to Sacramento.”

I have little doubt Fox is proud he was able to keep the Spurs from giving up anything and had no problem crapping on the org on his way out and making sure we had no negotiation leverage.

Lets see how Montes 4 D chess works here. Fox might regret it.

Trading him somewhere else is how you get him

I sensed that the vibes were off this year... What if this whole time, it was because of Fox??

I know it’s easy to trash on the guy now that he’s gone, but the rest of the season will be very telling.

And, then you get yourself too. See how the competition thing works first.

I have no doubt Fox was trying to sabotage the team to get himself to SA without getting backlash as a locker room cancer. I think Coach Brown was just collateral damage. His little photo-op with Brown after his firing was just Fox's team trying to control the narrative and make him look like the good guy.

The dude never intended to re-sign with the Kings and he wanted to make it look like it was the Kings fault, when he was half a**ing it the whole year. If you really want out, be a man and don't try to sabotage the team on your way out.

Not if we fall apart in the process. I don't think Monte took a worse deal to make Fox happy.

I don't think this is a "what if?" at this point.

I really think Mike Brown was the fall guy and the Kings were desperate to make Fox happy. Despite our win streak, he still wanted out. Don’t really care for Fox anymore

Yeah, Fox's team probably told anyone interested that he was not going to resign with them and was going to San Antonio in the summer of 2026. I'm sure he sabotaged his own market to get to SA and help them give up as little as possible.

It was actually a small miracle the Kings got what they did from SA, knowing the circumstances that Fox put them in.

We don’t know the offers but if Miami offered rozier, Jokic, JJJ, and picks and send him there and send a **** you gift to him as well

Not a probably it has been confirmed.

 

[Shaqfuey]

Does no one miss R.E. Graswich? Lol.

I'm probably in the minority, but I always respected Marty McNeal even though I often disagreed with him. Same with JoeD.

I liked Graswich as a sports writer. Couldn’t stand him on tv or when he starting covering current affairs and politics.

He completely tarnished his legacy by pulling that.

Hopefully as long as the Ranadive family governs this franchise he is not welcome back.

Good news! We got 60 at the half.
Bad news. They got 62.

The team looks as awkward as a teen on a first date, but the promise is there.

Defense is needed but at least they battled back from a much larger deficit. They are learning to play together. I see a lot to like.

 

[Spike]

Bahaha! Wrong thread. Oh well, c'est la vie.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Maybe should have traded him for some wing defenders?

That sounds like a guy that was blind sided by this. “By the looks of it, they say he wanted outta here, so he got what he wanted.”
