Belinelli signs with the Kings 3 years 19mil
- Thread starter sidney

This team IS serious about winning. Just not good at it. But hey, gross incompetence last season landed us Willie Trill. That's the first pick in a long time I've been legitimately excited about.
That's the biggest pet peeve I have about the bashing of the kings nationally. The rebuild is over. It's fill in with veteran time.

We needed a backup SG and Belinelli fits the mold -- he's a 39% career 3pt shooter. Good system player: hits his open shots, knows his role. He's also a really poor defender but you can hide that off the bench. I would have been happier with a 2 year deal, but 3 is at least acceptable given the expected jump in salary cap over the length of it. This has to solidify Ben as the starter now, which is probably the best move we could make after Matthews turned us down. Collison and Ben are good compliments in the backcourt and I think Ben would compliment Rondo too. Ben had stretches last year where he was an elite 3pt shooter (41% in November/December). If we have both Collison and Rondo at point this year he's going to have even better shots than he had last year. Kindof a make or break year now for him. If he's going to emerge as a third option, this is his chance.
Any ideas on who? And why another big before a solid guard? Either way it's probably just small chat considering Rondo is going to sign.
I have a good feeling that he will sign within 24 hours of his visit in Sacramento today. I just hope that once he does sign, he'll realize we
have a good organization and he decides to stay here much longer than just 1 year. I was always a big fan of Rondo's when he was on the
Celtics. During our darkest days I actually rooted for the Celtics for a little while when they had Rondo, Garnett, and Ray Allen. I just
hope he can bring that same fire to Sacramento. It's all up to him!

He's got to go get a hamburger first and think about it. The clock is ticking but I don't think him signing right away is a concern. If he doesn't sign within 48 hours though then definitely. Rondo doesn't have many options and if he truly
gets along with Cousins and wants to play with him, he'll sign. Patience!

I like it! I like it a lot. One of the most reasonable deals in the free agency period. Addresses a much needed need at a reasonable cost. Need to get some frontcourt help here as well.
I might be in the minority here ut I think Rondo might be a good get for us as well if we end up signing him to a reasonable deal

I've been hearing Koufos
We just need some size to even out the roster defensively, since we don't have a lot of solid big men right now. If we get another guard first we might not get another big. I'd really like another solid guard but that's only after we get a big, if we can do it. We need the size to defend offenses. If after we get a big then I'd go for Beverley over Rondo.
