I like Kuminga, but I don’t want the KINGS to part with Devin Carter just yet. I’d like to see a full season w/o what happened to him last offseason. As for the Warriors not having interest in trading Kuminga to SAC — well, that works both ways. I don’t imagine the KINGS having a lot of...

You mock about stability, but an all-time great named Kevin Durant is on his way to doing the same thing. 5 different org’s and counting. LeFraud James has been well traveled, too, and if rumors are true could be playing for his 4th different org soon. It’ll be 5 stops in total counting...

Could have drafted Austin Reaves, who went undrafted, and been even better off.

I honestly can't believe anybody pays attention to these local pundits. I stopped listening and reading a long while ago. Morgan and Deuce are the only ones I occasionally pay attention to and even they have their ups and downs.

I'll take any win we can get. I'm not enamored by the signing, but I'm not disgruntled either. I would have been had the acquisition of DS come at the cost of Malik Monk. Since that didn't happen, I'm no longer on red alert. This team did need a pure PG. And Dennis Schröder is better than...

Reports I keep reading allege that the KINGS are sending Malik Monk to Detroit in a s&t deal for Schröder. If so, it just took this “meh” signing to another level.

The instant gratification crowd never ceases to amuse. So does the “intentionally lose” crowd. Nobody ever taught them about the purpose or spirit of competition. Nope, it’s always about shortcuts and cheating the system.

Carter, Ellis, Clifford, and I think Keegan Murray in some instances.

Yeah, that view is pretty silly. Look at someone like Nikola Jokić, who had the advantage of playing in the league for several seasons before turning 22 (as opposed to just playing college ball), and improved a lot by age 25, 26. Steve Nash is an example I always use. He came into the league...

That was my initial thought as well. But as a proponent of BPA, I can live with it if this kid was indeed best available at 24. I also do not hate the fact that it is a late first rounder (17-30) or two 2nd rounders sent out to get him. Seems like a worthwhile gamble.

Argh! I knew it was gonna be easy, but I just couldn’t put my finger on it. Stupid AI on google kept giving me Tyus Jones and “The Dream Shake” in an NBA context. Thanks for clarifying. Yeah, I remember the Da Silva hype. Hopefully he plays bigger than his measurements.

I’m not picking up on your player acronym.

No, it’s not a lot. It’s far worse than that. It’s insanity. That’s a package you pay for Giannis, or some younger superstar talent. Not for a good supporting player like Bane. Think back to the KINGS glory days. That’s a price you might pay for prime Webber once he’d rehabilitated his name in...

What’s the use of having assets if you overuse them for a player like Bane? The Magic just brought themselves to KINGS level by wiping their ****** with those picks in this deal.

Yes it can. Your subsequent example is a straw-man. You're arguing against a point that I never made. If I had said that the color navy blue was similar to light blue due to x, y, and z -- you countering "that makes as much sense as suggesting that navy blue is also a light color" doesn't in...
