Offseason Team Grades

[Bricklayer]

Stumbled across this over at NBC Sports, reprinting an article from ProBasketballNews.Com. In the depths of the offseason, its not a horrible way to get a bball fix:

Sacramento Kings

Makeover mandate: No evident plan sure beats a bad plan.

Seems about right other than JT playing well in VSL.. He didn't look that good to me except in the last couple games.

A couple things I didn't understand in this analysis.

1. Why do they not even mention that Evans is seen at least partly as a point guard. I can understand if they don't believe that Tyreke is a pg, but it seems pretty obvious that we are going to try him there. It appears to me that they made an assumption much research..but maybe they just disagree and were trying to be nice.

2. I didn't read every team, but they also stated that Devean George might be a good piece in Golden State, not seeing that at all.

There would probably be more, but I stopped reading when I read the D. George stuff.

yeah... i wouldnt have given this team a C but thats just me and why havent we signed or traded for a back up center?

I also thought it strange that he didn't even mention the possibility of Evans playing PG and that he assumed Evans will be coming of the bench.

C- is a little harsh, but agree with this final quote:

"Well, it hasn't been awful. It just hasn't been nearly enough."

While there's still time, I wish GP had/will be a little more aggressive in rebuilding...

I dont think there really is/was a lot out there this offseason though.

There werent any good frontcourt FAs, and the only PG FA of any note we have been mentioned as at least interested in.

And in terms of trades, I think we'll be better off waiting til around the deadline. By then we'll have a slightly better idea of what Tyreke can do in the NBA (PG or SG?) which could influence what players we can put on the block.

We didnt do much, but there wasnt a lot we COULD do. I'd give us a solid C+.

I also thought it strange that he didn't even mention the possibility of Evans playing PG and that he assumed Evans will be coming of the bench.

Ya, I didn't care much for this due to the fact that there wasn't even any mention of Evans playing PG and coming off the bench.

It's like he just checked for info on Evans online and wrote an article about it.
