We are bad. There's no other way of saying it. Not awful, but bad.

This might be the most average, middle of the road team we've had yet. Competitive but can't win a close game. Hovering around .500 without looking like a dangerous team. I don't see this squad making the playoffs, and possibly not even the play-in. Our defence sucks once again, I don't care...

There's nothing wrong with aiming for higher than mediocrity. It's a small-time mentality to be content with being average.

Well, multiple opportunities to go ahead and close this one out, and multiple choke jobs. Fox was awful down the stretch, unnecessary turnovers, bad shots, and missed badly on a wide open three to tie it. We were only in this game due to DDR's heroics. This will ruffle some feathers but we...

We are not winning this game and don't deserve to. Lyles has sucked all year and needs to not get minutes. He's a chair defensively, makes poor decisions consistently, and hasn't been able to knock down shots. He's a total liability right now. Kings are suffering from our usual problems...

While DeMar is older than I'd like, he's still productive and should have a couple years left in him. And he's about as good as we can hope to get in Sacramento. Hopefully there's not much going out in return, but he should make us better in the short term.

I'm going to give Monte the benefit of the doubt and assume this is linked to a deal; otherwise this is awful. My worry is that we have made similarly awful deals in the past, value-wise, which didn't lead to anything.

I was more asking where is this negative reaction being seen? The reaction is overwhelmingly positive on this site. I'm assuming twitter. Drafting for need is proven to be an awful strategy in the majority of cases. You sort out your needs via trades and FA. It's amazing that some people still...

Awesome. Carter was right up there on my wish list and I assumed he'd be gone. Why is everyone saying Kings fans are upset? Is this coming from Twitter? I haven't seen any negative reaction but I avoid the cesspit that is twitter.

He absolutely has more value, there's zero question. Good deal for Portland.

That's a good deal for Portland. Avdija just had a really good year and he's only 23.

God, Monte really has a man-crush on Kuzma. I don't get it. I mean, you can't complain value-wise. Kuzma is productive (albeit on bad teams). But I'm just not convinced on him; I'll have to adopt a wait-and-see approach if that's the route we take.

Did you quote the wrong person? I didn't take any jab at anyone.

Since the question is who I think the Kings WILL pick, and not who I want, I think it will likely be one of: Tristan da Silva Zach Edey I went with da Silva. As for who I WANT to draft, I would be happy with Holland, Topic, Salaun, Carter, Carrington or Dillingham. I really like Filipowski...

Luka is unbelievable. It is never not going to hurt. It's like being stabbed through the heart repeatedly. Absolutely the single worst decision in franchise history.

Keon was awesome tonight. The activity and IQ defensively was special. It's just gravy when he's making shots and the right pass, although we need him to continue to do that to have a shot against the Pels. Amazing night for him. I'm very happy for him.

No expectations here. We have been bad recently and I don't expect us to overcome Steph. Let's see if this team has the mental strength to exact revenge on the Dubs after last year. Draymond to elbow Lyles in the 3rd and get ejected.

We're not the only team to lose impact players to injury. Monk being out doesn't excuse mental lapses at the end of games.

Considering this is a must-win game against a short-handed team with nothing to play for, I suspect we keep true to our form and lose this one after having a sizable lead in the 3rd. 3-7 over the last 10 with everything to play for. This team is incredibly frustrating and lacks confidence...

Another total choke job by this Kings team. We're getting bounced in the play-in, regardless of whether it's LA or GS. This team is mentally weak. At least we'll keep our lottery pick. Monte absolutely has to hit because this team as constructed has very few ways to actually improve.
