    Kings hire Luke Walton

    Y’all are nuts. No one available I’d want more. Amazing work.

    Better pick? Doncic or Bagley? split from Vlade thread ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK

    Marvin is an awesome basketball player to watch. One day he might be considered the best in the draft. Given current information though, the obvious redraft choice would be to trade the pick to Dallas and draft whichever of JJJ or Bagley fell to 5th. Just about anybody, other than King’s fans...

    Walton fired by Lakers; Kings make offer (merged)

    I get that some of us want to look at other fan boards for opinions, and I think that consensus carries some weight. If it were tiered I’d say we should place weight as such: Most important - former players Second - former coaching colleagues (especially if those colleagues are some of the...

    Walton fired by Lakers; Kings make offer (merged)

    These words from Kerr are about all I need to be all in on Luke Walton.

    Joerger Status. (He’s Fired)

    I would like to say that the fact that we're being linked to candidates like Walton and Messina represents major growth from the franchise. Furthermore, that Messina reportedly would want the job is a big deal. Firing Joerger seems wild up front, I think it could end up being a great thing...

    [Game] Kings v. Rockets - Tuesday, April 2 - 7PT/10ET

    It’s crazy how our game threads get ~4 pages per game now. A month ago it was ~25 pages per. In other news, the rockets are better than the kings. Also, the rockets are INCREDIBLY frustrating to root against. Seems the refs are doing a horrible job every time. I wonder what it’s like to be the...

    Post National Media Coverage Here

    I feel like this one deserves its own thread. This feels like a big deal, the best NBA writer just put out a very well thought out and researched dive into the most important aspects of our team. That just hasn’t happened in forever.

    [Game] Kings @ Lakers - Sunday, March 24 - 6:30PT/9:30ET

    Just ran the numbers, and willie costs us ~ .7 points per game on his free throws (he shoots 3.2 per game and makes 1.7 = 53%. If he shot 75% he’d make 2.4). How much does this matter vs how frustrating and bad it feels when watching?

    There’s no way that’s true. That would mean 63 for 1,000

    The Future (a.k.a Marvin Bagley III and De'Aaron Fox and your Sacramento Kings)

    In all seriousness, this is the question. Is De'Aaron Fox Mike Conley or what John Wall was supposed to be? Is Marvin Bagley Chris Bosh+ or...? These are the guys we'll ride with and give our salary cap to. We need at least one of them to be top 5-10 and the other to be top 10-20 to have a...

    Can Vucevic run though? Also, DeAndre Jordan plays for the Knicks! :p

    [Game] Kings @ Knicks Saturday March, 9 - 9:00 AM PT/12:00 PM ET

    Haha y’all are so negative. We aren’t shooting well, still winning. Fox playing well. Can’t we just enjoy it?

    [Game] Kings @ Knicks Saturday March, 9 - 9:00 AM PT/12:00 PM ET

    So now that the playoffs are quite unlikely, what are we watching for to close out the season? Personally, I’d like to see Fox have a real statement game or two and. I hope Giles continues his push. Want to see Bagley back and putting up strong numbers, and hope Barnes continues to gel with the...

    The Road to catching the Spurs

    I’d argue that being close to the playoff cusp has been invigorating. I no longer think we’ll make it, but I have been infinitely more invested in the team this year than the past ten and will keep that excitement indefinitely. Judging by the life on this and other Kings boards, I don’t think...

    Why did we trade our spiritual leader for a guy that doesn’t play?

    Interesting how much shorter this game thread is than what has become the norm.

    [Game] Kings vs Clippers 3/1- 7PT/10ET

    Roughest loss of the season for me. Felt the hope for playoffs diminish pretty significantly there. Still gotta chance, but man.. it’s been a good run.
