    NBA Analyst Bashes Sacramento Kings 'Hopeless' Future

    I think Hughes point that other more established teams are in the process of peaking is valid, and it's true that we have big contracts for older guys. I just disagree that the only option is to chuck it all and rebuild for another few years. I'd like to see some restrained chucking (so long...

    [News] Scott Perry is the new GM of Sacramento Kings

    Certainly understandable to defer to your boss when you're the least experienced head at the bottom of the totem pole. I'm sure they'll have their disagreements, but I doubt they will spill out into the public view.

    [News] Scott Perry is the new GM of Sacramento Kings

    I get that the NBA is not college hoops, but I'm hopeful that Perry's presence will give Christie the power to be the coach... calling the shots on who plays where/when, not making decisions only after groveling for player approval.

    What would you do?

    I'm threading the needle like Warhawk. I hold no illusions that this will make us championship contenders, but if we can be moving in the right direction this season then being competitive is a heckuva lot more fun than years of suckitude. I'm not a Championship Or Bust kind of fan. I do want...

    [News] BJ Armstrong hired as assistant GM

    Didn't he also represent Antoine Wright that first year? I think they sold the Kings on how important it is to get your Pooh Wright on the floor...

    What Does This Team Need Most?

    Josh Giddey seems like a great potential fit...

    What Does This Team Need Most?

    Absolutely, and if you ask me we have had a "Star" too many this last season. I want more opportunities for Murray and Keon to develop or they will never reach their full potential...at least not with us. These guys are very promising investments if we leave space for them on the offensive end...

    What Does This Team Need Most?

    If ai could pick one thing we need most, I'd say "filler." We need a key trade that brings in guys who accentuate our existing strengths. Would moving DDR for Dalton Knecht (6'6") and Rui Hachimura (6'8") be a step towards accomplishing this?

    [News] Scott Perry is the new GM of Sacramento Kings

    A lot of great points being made here, and I'm finding myself on the pro-Christie train. In addition to all the comments above, there's the issue of situational awareness. We are not in a corporation or even a rational enterprise where the best and the brightest have risen to the top. We are...

    [Game] Play-in Tournament 9/10 game: Kings vs. Mavericks 16 APR 2025, 7pm PT/10pm ET (ESPN)

    Well, regardless of whose fault it is, we are just not built with the right combination of pieces right now. Circumstances have not allowed us to camouflage this reality, which is a blessing when your are a mid-level team wanting to be better.

    Keon and Lavine coming out aggressive, love the pace so far.

    This is why we love the Kings

    I started loving the Kings back in the 90's for a variety of reasons. I loved that they were a group of misfits that got banished to the armpit of the NBA, and freed from the yoke of high expectations they did something crazy....they had fun and shared the ball! They played for each other...
