    Why not Vonleh?

    More of a potential defender with his length and ability to get blocks/steals, he has the physical tools to get better (especially if he drops some bulk and improves his mobility.)

    Why not Vonleh?

    I like Stauskas, so I can't say I'm that disappointed with the pick, I just think Vonleh was the better and more obvious pick for the Kings. I'm not a big Vonleh believer or anything, but I think he could have completed the Kings' frontcourt with Cousins, by giving them a potential long...

    Draft Lottery (Kings get #8 pick)

    Vonleh if we're talking the no.8 pick (of those options, but he may not be there.) I kind of think we should trade down (perhaps with Chicago or Phoenix,) and try to nab Kyle Anderson and say someone like Clint Capella, or some big who can either board and swat, or stretch the offense (someone...

    2014 Draft Prospects:

    Embiid certainly has great tools, but I'd be shocked if he developed that fast. It wouldn't be that hard to believe in a weak draft for some team to fall in love with his upside, but there's serious talent at the top of this draft.

    McLemore, what are your expectations?

    He averaged 1.2 spg per40 pace adjusted, that's mediocre at best.

    McLemore, what are your expectations?

    A Jason Richardson type player is his best case scenario IMO. I don't think posting basic stat lines of those players has any relevance whatsoever to McLemore. All of those players were very good creating off the dribble, McLemore is not. Comparable stat lines don't necessarily mean comparable...

    2014 Draft Prospects:

    I'm also a big fan of Exum, he's my favorite potential prospect in next year's draft, although he's probably going to college.

    Kings make offer to Iguodala

    Contracts like this are almost always regretted.

    Kings make offer to Iguodala

    Insane, stupid money.

    And It Begins....Pelicans About to Talk to Tyreke Evans

    Overpaying for Evans is preferable to losing him for nothing.

    Post draft thread discussion (split)

    Or they're both wrong.

    2013 NBA Draft thread.

    Did I say that's why the Kings picked him? No, I didn't. You mean an owner/GM/coach that are all rookies at their respective positions? I have trouble granting absolute trust to even the most proven management, but a brand spanking new one that just got put together a few weeks ago inspires...

    2013 NBA Draft thread.

    I'm not saying it's going to turn out as bad as Robinson, but judging the pick as it's great because of how much McLemore was "mentioned" as a top 2 pick, just doesn't really mean much to me, that's just a media fabrication, and NBA teams just pissed all over the fantasy of some top draft tier...

    2013 NBA Draft thread.

    I think the belief that there was this clear elite group at the top of the draft was purely artificial, I don't see McLemore being obviously better than Burke at all. People got caught up way too much with the hype. A player gets mentioned at the top of the draft for most of the year, and it...
