    Domas is who they thought he was.

    I feel like how the Rockets build around Sengun is how you need to build around Sabonis. Sengun is a good passer, but isn't the most gifted on defense and isn't a 3 point shooting threat at all. Yet they cover for him nicely on defense with Amen Thompson and Dillon Brooks next to him, and don't...

    Scott Perry is the new GM of Sacramento Kings

    Having no young talent you can confidently build around, no pick this year, and a bunch of vets with lackluster trade value and not getting multiple opinions on what the path forward should be is very on brand for Vivek.

    It's like we slashed the analytics department in 2023 and Monte and Vivek decided winning basketball actually looked like the 2007 Washington Wizards

    Sabonis looks completely checked out and I don't blame him at all. Domas is also one of my favorite Kings players ever as well. Top 3 for sure. He deserves better than to waste his time here on a team going nowhere. I'm sure he'll ask out this offseason and I really hope we don't drag this out...

    Probably. Players who are not good shooters or good defenders don't exactly draw war chest offers. Especially ones on contracts like Sabonis has. But Sabonis is also the 2nd best passing big man in the game. I could see his value being somewhere around 2 high quality assets and one decent asset...

    I'm not an expert in advanced basketball analytics, but I have to think there is some stat out there that is widely available to teams that could tell you a starting lineup that has Lavine, Monk, and DeRozan in it is not going to work out that well.

    I lean towards blow it up because I just don't see a way a team built around DDR, Lavine, and Monk ever amounts to anything meaningful. On the other hand Vivek has a very poor track record when it comes to the draft and team building so I'm not convinced in our ability to rebuild. Honestly as...

    Between the firing of Mike Brown and this unattractive roster I expect our next coaching choice to be between the head coach of UC Davis, the assistant coach of Napoli in the Serie A league, and Steve Nash

    I know I'm over the Fox stuff at this point. Vivek is already viewed incredibly unfavorably around the league. I can only imagine how much more of a turn off it would be for other players if his inexperienced daughter and a young washed out NBA player are heavily involved in team decisions...

    Anjali Ranadive and Jeremy Lamb. I can already picture the championship parades.

    Commentator Doug Christie would’ve brought that up by now. For some reason Coach Doug Christie is afraid to actually do it. I hope he’s not taking a wait and hope approach because there isn’t enough practice in the world that will make this starting line up work.

    As much as I'd love to be proven wrong I don't think a full preseason is going to help. Any starting lineup that features Malik Monk, DeMar Derozan, and Zach Lavine is going to be heavily iso focused. These players are who they are at this point.

    I've never been into fashion all that much, but it seems like with younger generations today it's some sort of competition to see who can dress the worst. They all look homeless.

    Monk as Starter

    I have faith in Monk as starting point guard and think he is the teams best bet (at least for the remainder of this season). His new role is not an easy one to adjust to. Prior to this the only thing he had to focus on was getting himself buckets. He pretty much had an entire shot clock to...
