Its pretty simple. If you are going for the win now move, then you move Tyrese as he is more of a long term project than Fox. If you are going for a long term rebuild, then you are not trading in Sabonis and you are trading out Fox. The fact that we picked the direction to win now, then the...

Holmes situation is REALLY interesting to me. It makes sense to move him and spend that money on a quality starter. However, the contract is pretty good and Holmes' level is a back up C on a championship level team. Money is still on Holmes getting moved but even if he stayed, it could work but...

It was probably agreed in principle or the framework of the deal was.

Once this kid gets his rhythm back, he will be a very nice fit next to Fox and Mitchell. We may not see it this season but I think next season (injuries permitting) he will come back to the level that is expected from him. Does all the little things you want a player to do next to a star team...

This was very evident against Washington. Fox alone had about 8 points of Sabonis' screens. This team's basketball IQ skyrocketed over the last couple of days.

I recall this as well (there being triggers for keeping Gentry if he makes PO). Does anyone remember what the deal was (i.e. for how long if Gentry makes the PO with this team)? It may not be a disastrous thing. If things go off track, there is always Doug who may be able to jump in. He did a...

This is a really good point. As a basketball team, we got a LOT smarter and that is in a large way due to trading low basketball IQ players in Buddy and Marvin and replacing them with high basketball IQ player like Sabonis, Holidya, DiVincenzo et al.

I think for the here and now, Kings got the best player in the deal. However, both teams had different strategies and I think both teams would be happy with their haul. From Kings perspective, any time you can get an All-Star caliber player for a young promising player, a bad contract and...

Yeah well! We are the Kangz! We get lottery luck when the pick goes to another team or when we are primed to pick a bust. Not to mention that it would be such a Kangz move to make the play in and sneak into play offs

When I tried it the first time it was a live event yet to start. Refreshed the page and the whole video disappeared. Seems OK now. Thanks

He probably won't be around in 2027 so he does not give.....

Will there be a replay of this?! I missed it! :(

The most difficult position to fill will be Sabonis' frontcourt partner. Ideally you would want a shot blocker, defender with some height that can spread the floor on offended. JJJ is just about an ideal side kick to Sabonis' in the frontcourt. Or a younger version of Rasheed Wallace. SG and...

Reality is that only DDV and maybe Lyles (in a Lawrence Funderburke sparingly used bencher) are keepers from this haul. Even DDV depends on how he returns from the injury and whether he can rediscover his game from last season.

Probably because they were showcasing some players. Fox also missed time as a result IMHO.

Really tough to give a letter grade on this one! I think we should have blown it up and gone young for a proper rebuild and as such this would possibly get a D or F or Kangz. However, the front office's strategy is to win now. I don't agree with it up, in that context, this has to be a B or...

To be fair, Hali (and Fox) had no quality around them to turn it into wins. With Sabonis and some dependable vets around the place, Fox will find it easier and will start getting some wins. We had a bunch of misfitting pieces that have not amounted to much as a team. Now you have 3 solid...

I honestly would not be surprised if Bagley turns is around somewhere else. He was doomed from the start with the Kings. As soon as Luka started showing his stuff, Bagley was never going to work here. The attitude, the drama......he needed a fresh start and we needed one as well. Solid salvage...

I suspect there will be a lot of minutes with Barnes at PF coming up.

This is a pretty good trade for us. Hopefully DDV can come back from his injury issue to regain the type of game that he showed last season. He fits really well on this team long term. If you look at the roster before and roster after all these trades, we are a better team now. You may not...
