Yes. They traded for Nesmith which could have been us. Found a team willing to give up an all star guard while retaining their primary shot blocker and 3 point shooter in Myles Turner. For better or worse we had a direct hand in multiple of their starters.

We need an early lotto spot or two to draft that larger 2 way wing. Unless you are a free agent destination those guys are really hard to obtain via trade. We traded Fox and still didn’t get one.

Good news and bad news https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/45320766/nba-free-agent-rankings-futures-lebron-turner-more-stars Keon is listed 9th on Pelton’s list of top free agents. Was hoping the Kings could slide through and easily resign him but we may have an issue doing so especially...

Hopefully with Vivek especially. He played a major role in blocking the Barnes trade, he played a role In the LaVine trade. He is possibly the worst owner in sports.

Haha. In retrospect I would have killed for this trade over what we got.

If Monte made one decision this team would be way different. Boston offered Nesmith and a first for Barnes prior to the 2021 draft. Had we taken it we would have lost one more game and been in front of Chicago in the draft. Our roster would have been Guards: Fox, Halibuton, Hield, Davis...

My kids live in St Paul (Minneapolis) and Westfield (Indianapolis). Hoping for a TWolves - Pacers finals.

Yeah and we would have gotten a 1st to go with it.

I think that is already happening. I fear we may soon rate that trade as bad as the Luka non draft.

Nope but there was a possibility of trading Barnes for Nesmith. Crazy to think both Hali and Nesmith could easily been Kings right now.

True. Apparently Monte had a different preferred trade and Vivek forced the LaVine move. Yes Fox forced their hand but they also were poor negotiators which has been true the entire time Vivek was in charge. Even the “good” trades like the Haliburton / Sabonis trade look increasingly poor...

Not sure, as a person who shared season tickets and shelled out thousands to the Kings last year, how expressing how I feel in response to a post is relentless

Given what Haliburton did tonight you could build a poll of Monte’s worst move. Trading Haliburton and Buddy for Domas Trading Fox for Lavine and a late first Trading a first for Kevin Huerter. Not trading Barnes for Nesmith and a 1st. Letting Bogi walk for nothing Letting Dante walk for...

Yeah how would you feel if SA traded Fox for JB?

Probably better than those springing for Kings tickets.
