    The Official We're Talking Playoffs Thread

    It may be time to stop talking about playoffs and start playing the younglings to see if there is potential with any of them. They are really the primary (maybe only) hope of building around Cousins because I just do not see much of an opportunity to trade for talent or sign high value FAs. We...

    DeMarcus brings others down (split from grades thread)

    I really hate all the finger pointing. I grew tired of it long ago. I think we all know who DMC is as a player by now - the good, the bad, the ugly and the great. All I really care about are 2 things - the future and wins. There are differences of opinions on how to obtain wins in the...

    DeMarcus brings others down (split from grades thread)

    Is this "Joan" in reception? If it is, fire anyone except her. If she is fired, I will officially be done with this franchise.:D

    [Game] Kings v. Thunder - 1/15/17 - 6PT/9ET

    Many of us would agree. However, many of us don't really care. We are a simple minded folk who really only care about 1 thing - wins. Until the Kings find out a way to produce wins we will be unhappy and likely complain a lot.

    [Game] Kings v. Thunder - 1/15/17 - 6PT/9ET

    That is a pretty accurate guide. I may also add: Do not support the only other really good draft pick of the past 10 years because he is too short, dribbles too much and shoots too much. Let him walk for nothing and replace him with a traditional, pass first PG because that will fit our...

    Cousins extension?

    Just thought it was interesting. Maybe it is a first.

    Cousins extension?

    These are serious questions (not a criticism): How many players in the history of the NBA have signed a max deal without ever having experienced a winning record or a playoff game? Also, how many players in the history of the NBA became the highest paid in the league without ever having...

    Cousins extension?

    This is a quite an issue. I would like to avoid it by making a trade before the deadline. A quality trade that is. Cast your stones if you must. If we do not make a trade, we need to give him (essentially forced) max money making any future trades very difficult. Yes, he is a great talent...

    Oops. I probably did not read his post correctly. I'm the one who is too dumb to notice what he has saying lol.

    Well, we are consistently on pace for about 35 wins.

    I can think of no other player that has been given more chances to prove themselves that BMac. It became ridiculous along time ago. Swallow the hard truth: he is not an NBA player. I would rather be giving his minutes to Jimmer at this point. I was ready to trade or cut him 2 years ago. I...

    Which team looks like they have lost 9 of their last 10?

    If we go 26-22 the rest of the way to end the season at .500, I will be very impressed and encouraged by this team. Btw, the schedule usually does look brutal when you are not very good.

    The Official We're Talking Playoffs Thread

    I could care less about what other teams are doing. The only thing I care about is the Kings winning the game in front of them and doing it frequently enough to get us back to .500 ball or better. In fact, if I had to choose I would rather have this team reach 41 wins and not make the playoffs...

    Is there any possible way to get CJ Mccollum?

    Any trade with us for CJ would need to include DMC, or yes, they would spit in our face (understandably so). Even with Cuz in the mix, the trade would be difficult with Portland's contract situations. I think the Blazers are pretty much stuck with what they have. Too bad. I would love to...

    15 years from now, how many conference finals do you think will be represented by one of the 3 Cs listed above? I will start the over/under at 1.5.

    FWIW, my opinion about this team has not changed. I still think it would be best to go in a very different direction. But when the team wins, I am happy and do not want to be a buzzkill. I could add some reasons why my opinion has not changed, but instead I would like to wish everyone a Merry...
