Yeah I just don't see how we continue with acquiring TT, unless he's getting insta-flipped elsewhere

4 year 47 mil deal to our starting Center
2 yr/7.5 mil to our back-up C
39th overall pick on a Center only prospect

Kings have already made a pretty significant investment in the position this off-season. Wouldn't make sense to use an asset to do it again.

One interesting road that’s opened up is the Sixers losing their backup center and apparently stashing Petrusev for a season. Only makes a TT +Buddy deal to Sixers for Harris more appealing for both sides

And quite frankly Damian Jones is more than capable as a deeper roster fit

All kinds of possibilities involving ATL, Boston and potential 4th team.

Have to figure ATL either is ready to move Hunter to the 4 full time and move on from Collins and the big contract he wants. ATL has wings and needs a Wright.

Can Hield be involved somehow or Bagley?

 

[dude12]

And as far as a full sized wing, these next few days are important to Woodard. I think given the chance, he can bring defense. Needs an opportunity at some point

I agree. He should have had these opportunities last year but dumb dumb didn't even give him a chance for whatever reason.

Just sucks that we're even in a situation where we have to rely on a 2nd rounder's development to have more than one switchable wing on the roster.

The Bogdan Bogdanovic effect?!

Lots of smack talk from fans of the losingest team of all time towards a player who was a key contributor on an EC Finals team.

the guy was hurt most of the back half of the season. I am so tired of literally everything being Luke and/or Monte’s fault. Blame them for what they actually do, but these misstatements about what they have supposedly done are so tiresome.

Yeah, that's not even including Bagley or Metu as well, both of whom can get run at C.

 

[dude12]

I actually like Metu as a bit of a stretch 4….as he keeps developing

I’m not sure Metu can guard 4. He might be more a stretch 5.

Probably

Nevermind

 

[dude12]

Hell, just keep Wright and play him at the 3 as part of the bench 3 guard lineup instead of dealing him for something we don’t need

poop.

still Len negates the need for TT and Holmes is complete so that deal still makes no sense unless its part of something larger.

Nevermind

It honestly makes no sense why the Sixers are just obsessed with acquiring players that have 0 chance of ever making Embiid and Simmons better on the floor.

Amick on Deuce and Mo saying that the Lakers undercut the Kings by taking a Westbrook deal out of nowhere.

Hey guys, Shamit says it wasn't legal so I guess we have a problem here. He "doesn't buy" the trade kicker.
Also in another tweet he says

Not really sure what this says about my talent evaluation, but virtually every guy listed here was a top target I wanted for us and still available.

of course, I'm riding with the Vanderbilt train #1

Why not a S&T for one Buddy Hield and a lightly used Marvin Bagley third edition?
