    Kings trade Landry to Hornets......

    Meh. Pretty weak trade to cap off another weak trade (Martin to Houston). Won't make the team any better at all in the grand scheme of things. Yes, we got something for nothing...but this is a talent downgrade. I think there are several GMs in the league who could have done much better with...

    Feb 28th, Here We Stay Game

    Looking forward to seeing a rowdy, sellout crowd. I'm bringing three friends. A while ago, an account representative sent me a link & code that removes all those nasty Ticketmaster charges. PM me for a link if you don't have it already. Looking forward to seeing every seat filled! Side note...

    Maloof Response to new plan

    That's a pretty damning release. Wow. Nice preemptive defense with the mention of all the effort they've put in.

    Mayor Kevin Johnson on KHTK

    That's the kind of rumors I like hearing. Thanks for all your work, Mike, in keeping us updated. Looking forward to seeing what Taylor/ICON can pull off.

    Kings looking to move Landry for 1st rounder & $3M cash?

    I'm pretty much in agreement with the sentiment here - Petrie just can't do great trades anymore. And like most, I'll take a draft pick over nothing. Granted, I feel that a double-digit scorer like Landry is worth a late-lottery pick, not a mid-first rounder, but that's just me. Yes, this draft...

    Maloofs: Keeping options open, new name in the works

    Power Balance Pavilion? Those folks have actually made enough money to finance naming rights?!? Well, whatever keeps'em in town...

    Jermaine Taylor

    est.1999 agree with you...the dumping ground effect usually plagues teams with a losing reputation. But as we continue to pick up these scrubs and wash ups, hopefully we pick up guys who put forth effort and character, not the opposite. OKC did a good job of this while they were rebuilding...as...

    A disturbing trend (among fans)

    You have to understand that these things happen when your team has been: 1.) Out of the playoffs for nearly 5 years 2.) Both slow and misfiring while rebuilding 3.) Surrounded by a city that has been hit hard by a massive recession and resulting negative sentiment and finally, 4.) We're heading...

    Something major needs to change now and Fast

    Here we go...t-minus trade deadline...again. The fact that our draft picks haven't worked out (yet?) isn't Geoff's fault (blame luck of the lottery), but he could've been more aggressive thus far in rebuilding ,ala Presti, Pritchard et al. But I'd still like to think that our venerable GM...

    Landry+Thompson rip people for not knowing plays or wanting to know plays, uh oh!

    What this sounds like - in a nutshell - is that a few players have given up on winning/team-play or coaching and are simply "playing for stats." This is historically a problem on losing teams...I'd sure hate to hear that the problem is Tyreke.

    Dish Network Drops Comcast Sportsnet California

    Well f'n-A. I don't pay for cable as I watch very little TV (a few series, NBA & college BBALL) and anything I watch, I get online for free AND get to watch programs on MY time (beats $100/mo for a DVR and paying for 550 channels that I'll never watch). But it is nice to catch an HD Kings...

    [Game] Raptors @ Kings Game Thread

    Plunked down for some nice lower level seats for this one. Haven't been in the lower level since '07...really looking forward to tonight's game. Let's get'em Kings!

    [Grades] Preseason Grades v. Lakers 10/13/10

    Unfortunately, it looks like Westphal hasn't yet been able to get the most out of this group of non-passing personnel. Looking up and down the roster, we all knew that going into the season that ball movement would be a problem (look at Asst + Asst to TO ratios). And it likely will be all...

    dalembert is out 4 to 6 weeks

    Seriously - what gives with Whiteside? Why won't they give a timeframe? The last time I heard "out indefinitely" was with Randy Foye's stress fracture - and he ended up being out from the start of the season until February. Hopefully, "out indefinitely" means 4-6 weeks, not 4-6 months. How bout...

    Arco Arena Land Swap Developer Sweetens The Pot

    Given how Arco won't have naming rights after February, it'd be very comforting to see an "replacement" organization sign an agreement to name the arena.

    Luther Head and JR Giddens camp invitees

    Nice training camp invites - a good break from the usual undrafted/unheard-of fodder. I especially like that the Kings are taking a look at Luther Head. As previously stated, he's pretty limited, but he fills a need off the bench: shooting and defense (on PGs and smaller 2s). Worth taking a...

    Would love your input....

    Want to echo the questions about his offseason training plans. Donte's still got tremendous upside and improved greatly from a bust-worthy rookie season. He has alot of things to work on, namely: rebounding, ball-handling, post skills and defense. With that being said, I'm curious as to what...

    Draft Combine Measurements !!!!

    Looking at the measurements confirmed something I saw on video: Aminu doesn't have much hops - but his massive wingspan allows him to dunk at will. But on video I noted that he really doesn't elevate that much - unlike Josh Smith, who's head typically grazes the rafters. Not sure how big a...

    Kings Set Trend with Social Media (video)

    Don't need to watch the video to reply to this one. They've done a fantastic job with their innovative and leading social media campaigns. I handle this aspect in my job, and while we have less resources, I follow them closely for best practices. They make me look good! Thanks to all the...

    Wesley Johnson

    I like Johnson alot, spare his noted reluctance to mix it up in the paint/drive to the basket. Like many others, I think a guy at his age is a reach at #4-5, but I wouldn't mind seeing him on our team one bit. As mentioned, he has the potential to be a very solid defender in the NBA - while...
