Kenny Atkinson would be great.

He cares. He just thinks "his way" is the "right way." "His way" needs to be letting basketball minds makr basketball decisions. No interference. No hiring coaches before GM's or vice versa.

Agree. And thats why it looked better last year bc either Fox was out or the guards were staggered.

Watch the Kings Lakers game from last year where Halliburton ran the team and the Kings won. I think Halliburton and Fox are a bad fit for whatever reason.

As Kings fans we tend to overvalue our players. Monte almost made a good trade (Buddy for Harrell/Kuzma) and could have made anotjer good trade Fox for Simmons but I think Philly will pass now.

Yeah and Fox is Vlades pick. Haliburton is McNair's.

Yeah agreed. Simmons will upgrade the defense. If he got to 75% FT and could take and make even 33% of his 3's then he could really be something. His history suggests he wont do those things.

OK so this Philly based article references the Kings trading one of Fox or Halliburton (w Hield if its Halliburton) based upon the Amick/Shams report. So if the Kings are going to make a move, which one of the two are you trading? I'm asking based on the assumption the Kings will trade for...

He has performed well in his limited opportunities. The players love Bobby too from the interviews. Granted its SL and g league but his performance got my attention.

When has any GM in Sacramento ever taken that route? Even Petrie never did that. A couple of trades and key FA signings brought us the "glory days." I'm not saying that approach is wrong. But I'm not sure that's the direction we will go. Also if you go that direction Im not so sure the Kings...

Bobby has proven players play hard for him and win (summer league and a limited sample size in g league). If the problem is all coaching then we will see results. If its the players then we have an issue. I think the Kinga need to decide see which one is the problem and make a decision. I...

They are "Jekyl and Hyde." One minute they look like GS Warriors (Charlotte win) and now they look like trash w the losing streak. We have to understand is that bc of the players, coaching or both? Then take action accordingly.

Isaiah Thomas likens Ben Simmons to Magic Johnson if he works on his free throws. The question is: Who has greater potential? Fox to be a prime Derrick Rose MVP candidate, or Simmons to start making free throwsand be a modern day Magic Johnson? I ABSOLUTELY LOVE FOX but if Isaiah is right then a...

We were down 17-5. Kings outscored Mavs 94-88 after the poor start even though they couldnt make a three to save their lives. Shocked me too from what I saw but the math says Walton is right.

Two disclaimers with what I am about to post. 1) It is pre-season. 2) The teams we have played have been missing some of their best players. Also, the Kings have done what they are supposed to do and win these games, which is new for them considering they would beat Denver and then lose to...

Terrence Davis seems to have derived ALOT OF BENEFITS playing with Mitchell. He spoke of it in a recent interview, but his play tonight shows intensity. He picked up 3/4 court on D too. Mitchell's intangibles really benefit the team as a whole in addition to what he brings individually.

Buddy/Bagley Two top 3 protected firsts if 4-30 option to pick swap those picks, plus 1 pick swap. Philly probably wants a point guard though and holding out for Mitchell or Haliburton. Otherwise take the Indiana deal of Levert Brogdon and a 1st from Indy and call it a day.

Shumpert's leadership but the fundamental difference is Thompson can rebound and play defense at a high level. He talks the talk and walks the walk.

Players get traded along with 1st rd picks to clear their cap sheet all the time. Why wouldn't Houston send a 1st? Otherwise he is dead money not playing.
