No, like I would semi-retire to work his vineyard and go to Kings games.
Haha, just giving you a little grief.
But yeah, that doesn't sound like a bad gig at all, does it?

We don't boo our own. Unless you left and were a d bag about it.
Booing is no fun. Acknowledging that a player once played for the Kings, and then immediately forgetting all about it, and moving on in process, seems to be much more enjoyable.
Unless you're talking about Olden Polynice. I remember booing that guy his first game back in Sacramento (when he was on the Sonics, I believe). Actually, I also remember the entire arena heckling him so much during a trip to the free throw line, he actually threw up a couple of airballs...![]()
Olden Polynice is the OP OP.
I would have never booed him but any reservations I had about the trade were dusted about 2 minutes into his first rotation.
Even before that he was just kind of pointing everybody into place and it was like we had a coach after 3 years. Obviously it was just a hint/taste of what we would see this year, but he had that big takeover energy the moment he got onto the court, and it also unleashed Fox to be Fox. The hug certainly symbolized that there was not about to be a clash of two alphas and we could breathe easy, but it really was insane to me how instantly his presence transformed the team even in its sorry state last year.
This hug sealed it for me. Fox knew right away he finally had a running mate.
THIS...to me is what makes this season special on all levels, and from all directions, no matter what the end result will end up being. I knew, coming into this season, that we'd be improved. I just didn't think we'd be improved so much so that we'd also be one of the top teams in the West. This ride has been one I will remember for a very long time, and one that I may actually never forget, even after I die.Even before that he was just kind of pointing everybody into place and it was like we had a coach after 3 years.

Embiid is due for an MVP so I think this year he finally gets it
This signaled a new era to me, I was at the game and just knew stuff was different. Had to make it my profile pic.
