    I hate this team

    The problem I am having with the current team is that they are regressing slowly. When the Kings were notoriously bad in the 80s and 90s, they at least still had some young talent and energy to make the games fun. When the Maloofs steped in, they put together a smart, young team that was the...

    Baron Davis rumor/possibility...

    As much as I'd like to ditch KT and get Dalembert, I don't want Baron's poor FG%, injuries, and price tag. He likely wouldn't improve the team a great deal, so if the team ends up sucking, I'd rather have the freedom of Bibby off the books.

    McGrady out indefinitely

    God, Bonzi is not too bright. First he lets his agent talk him up to the point where he turns down a generous contract from the one team he seemed to get along with. Then, once he signs for peanuts with a different team in hopes he will get a payday next year, he starts drama and doesn't play...

    Will all this make resigning Bibby at the end of the year unlikely?

    He shouldn't be pissed. He's on his way out and this is what happens to big , expiring contracts. He won't be resigned though, even if he still is with the team.

    Kings out of the picture for Iverson...

    I bet they said K-Mart or no deal, to which the Kings gave the correct response of a middle finger.

    Allen Iverson thread - DAY TWO

    What's wrong is that a team in rebuilding mode is giving up two early first round picks. Fine, they have two good, young SGs, but good luck getting more talent around them. It makes no sense for them. Also, AI, Miller, and SAR are not in their prime, nor is Salmons or Price a young gun. I...

    Allen Iverson thread - DAY TWO

    Folks who think getting AI is going to require some major moves are crazy. Trading big stars will always result in a loss and is usually done for financial reasons. Look at what teams got for Shaq, Webber, Ray Allen, a young T-Mac, etc. The best the Sixers will get is a borderline all star...

    Allen Iverson thread - DAY TWO

    Man, a lot of you guys are smoking something funny. So a rebuilding team is going to give up two first round draft picks (which will be lottery picks) and take on KT's contract just for Martin? Then Garcia will start at the 2? Losing Martin will hurt the team in the long run, so they are...

    Allen Iverson thread - DAY TWO

    If that trade rumor is true, I really hope it happens. Bibby does not have a future with the team, Potapenko is deep bench and expendable, Garcia is decent but there really isn't a place for him to grow on the team like he needs, and ditching KT's contract is a dream. AI of course is great...

    Allen Iverson thread - DAY TWO

    Why? And who would be traded for his massive $20mil contract? Making a move for him means that we are officially giving up and going in to lottery/rebuild mode. The only way I would do that is if it meant trading Miller and KT away. That way, all signicant contracts would be off the books in...

    Allen Iverson thread - DAY TWO

    I don't see how the Kings could not be in the front running on this. Indiana's rumored offer was a joke and the Mav's would not be able to put together a package without dealing some of their important talent (and I really don't see AI meshing on that team anyway). The Clips rumored offers...

    Sacramento, Indiana Closing in on Deal?

    So you would rather have a rookie with no real PG experience or a phantom veteran PG that magically joins the team?

    Webber back?

    Hard to leech up cap space when you are busy trying to hock your crappy book.

    Webber back?

    Then Christie and Vlade come out of retirement and Peja signs with us.

    Sacramento, Indiana Closing in on Deal?

    Don't like. It's true that Bonzi seems to want a little more than he is worth to the Kings, so a sign and trade and giving the starting SG to Martin is a good option. However, even at the projected pay, I think Bonzi could be a bargain in the sea of bloated FA contracts. Getting a so-so...

    Samuel Dalembert

    Nevermind, you are right. He's one year in to a 6 yr/$58mil contract. Still too pricey, not nearly as bad as I thought though.

    Samuel Dalembert

    No chance in hell Philly would bite on that deal. They aren't ready to give up on Dalembert yet and sure as hell could get more for him than two garbage time players and one prospect. Besides, as much as I think Dalembert would bring things the team needs, his $90m contract is silly (and...

    What is taking so long with Bonzi?

    It starts at about $5 mil. In the case of SAR, it ends closer to $7 mil. Bonzi's contract ended at about $8 mil. I doubt he will make as much as his last contract, but not considerably less, therefore a "touch" above the MLE would be a fair offer.

    What is taking so long with Bonzi?

    I'm pretty confident Bonzi will stay. It looks like most teams that planned on spending their money have done so, so the only choices left are take the MLE from a good team and probably come off the bench or take the Kings offer and get to be a major part of a good team (whose got quite a...
