Why move IT? He would be a nice guard off the bench.
I would still be on board with a:

SG- McLemore
PG- Reke

6th- IT

arrangement, with IT moving into the role I've long envisioned him in as change of pace 6th man off the bench. Start big and thuddy, bring in IT as energy to speed things up.
 
That may be true, but there's maybe a half dozen of those types of guys in the league. Not every team gets to have one. I loved John Stockton too, but he never won a championship did he? Not saying that's a knock on him, but a whole lot of inferior PGs do have championships. There are other ways to win.
Michael Jordan. I know though, he never did win a championship but he should have two of them if a certain Jordan didn't have Utah's number. Those two series they had were amazing.
 
why u gonna put reke back in a position where he isn't advantageous? fail.[/QUOTE said:
Have you seen him play under Malone? Malone and Warriors were able to get the most out of their players! Klay, Barnes, Green, Ezelli? It's pretty much a clean slate for the Kings with the new FO and coaching staff. They also showed some good signs when playing with better effort and almost beat the Heat (may have broken that 27 game streak midway) and if they play like that night in and night out Kings will be really good and a lot better.

Off the bench is true - but in order for that to happen, Evans and McLemore have to start, unless:

Evans leaves, at which point, who do you start?
Evans stays - who comes off the bench?

It's tricky right now. We HAVE to move some guards. IT is cheap, which makes it tough. Jimmer and Thornton should be logical targets.
 
A likely scenario is the three guard lineup with IT, Reke and Mclemore on the floor together. Thornton would be shopped for something.

I am just saddened that even in this draft the team is picking BPA rather than look at team needs.
 
OKC take Roberson. Maybe see him as this years Faried? Undersized but very athletic, good rebounder and hustle guy. He'd been completely off my radar, don't think I'd read anything about him before I heard the pick.
