    Chris Anderson???

    I'm not really much of a fan of his but I'd take him if it didn't take too much to get him. Maybe something like Outlaw and Hickson for Anderson would work.

    Jeremy Lin

    Historically it never has been. But the new CBA cap changes that take place in 2014 are unprecedented and much stricter than anything we've seen before. The changes are designed with teams like L.A. and New York in mind, to prevent them from spending at will.

    [Game] Kings @ Pistons 2/17/12

    With most of their games at home in the 2nd half I suppose a Cinderella finish is still possible. Somehow, I just don't see it. Still too many problems with this team that aren't going to just go away.

    [Game] Kings @ Pistons 2/17/12

    I don't know why y'all are worried. Honestly, any chance of salvaging this season or sniffing the playoffs pretty much vanished with this latest losing streak. The Phoenix game was the one that did it for me. That was the one where I said OK, this season is over for all intents and purposes...

    Tyreke's lack of progression

    I've been thinking about this and quite frankly the way he's played his 2nd and 3rd year, I wouldn't give him a large extension. Too big of a risk. Unless he has a GREAT year next year, I'd let him walk in 2014. That's partly why I advocate trading him now while you can still get some value in...

    Jeremy Lin

    Yeah I'm sure they'll do everything they can to keep him but with them having 3 nearly unmovable contracts taking up most of their cap space and the much stricter cap coming into place in 2014 they may be somewhat limited here.

    Jeremy Lin

    He looks like exactly the kind of "pure PG" and playmaker many have been saying the Kings lack. He's a FA this summer. Obviously New York would like to keep him but they have 53$ million tied up in Chandler, Anthony, and Stoudamire so they don't really have any cap space to work with. Does...

    Comparing Playoff Supporting Casts To Our Own

    I don't make any threads about me (not sure how one would do that anyway). I responded to another poster. There's no being defensive, no whining, etc., you're manufacturing that. You are under no obligation to acknowledge anything I say, so please, feel free to stop doing so.

    Comparing Playoff Supporting Casts To Our Own

    Care to point out exactly what the facts are that the OP presented that make it more than a personal assessment?

    Tyrus Thomas

    So then he's a lot like Dalembert...

    Tyrus Thomas

    To the people comparing him to Hickson, Thomas is a MUCH better shot blocker. He's been averaging almost 2 blocks per game for a few years now and that's in only about 20 MPG. His 36 minutes block average is 2.5.

    Comparing Playoff Supporting Casts To Our Own

    I was thinking the exact same thing. I took heat myself for starting a similar thread not long ago. Just goes to show that it's all politics around here, just like high school. It's not WHAT is said but WHO says it that matters.

    [Game] Kings @ Pistons 2/17/12

    This upset me at first but I quickly changed my mind. I think the Phoenix game was the turning point for me. I'm now officially rooting for wosses for the remainder of the season.

    Tyreke's lack of progression

    I think they're saying part of the reason why they're shooting so bad is they aren't getting the ball in the right spots or at the right time. I'm not convinced that's the whole problem but it could be part of it. It is pretty strange how guys like Salmons, Garcia, and Outlaw who have been...

    [Grades] Grades v. Knicks 2/15/12

    The only players that look like they want to win night in and night out are Cousins and Thomas. The rest range from sometimes looking like they want to win to never looking like they want to win to looking like they'd rather be anywhere else in the world but on the basketball court.
