By hook, or by crook.

Well, at least he got his money, I guess.

Max gonna have to play 48 minutes a night because I might jump off a bridge if I have to see steady Hook Eubanks minutes.

Also at least Hunter and Keegs are healthy now

Kings staff saw those Cardwell defensive analytic numbers and said "Nah"

Huge bummer though, that probably ends his season. These were important developmental minutes here at the end of the season.

Only bright-side is this severely hampers our ability to win another game this year.

This makes me unhappy. The one full joy from this season has been watching Cardwell play. But sort of glad to see Scot and Dougie telling the league we’ve got your tanking warning.

Ok now we're getting fined

Wow. Tank only guaranteed after a non-drafted player lets hurt. That’s so 2025-2026 Kingz!

Kings practice court during tank season:

We can always pine for the days of Drewkembe Eutombo. OK, day. Day of Drewkembe Eutombo.

This is going to be straight up the WW3 of tanking between the cellar dwellers, lol.

I am so ready for the bloodbath....LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Get up to 2 or 3, look good at times, lower those 5th pick odds, and have some positive energy heading into the offseason.

Damn!

 

[Sluggah]

Noooooooo! My favorite part of these games

 

[kingsboi]

Perry saw Ainge's tactics and wanted to double down

Kings genius. Can't be accused of tanking when the UDFA that's had our biggest impact this season is hurt.

Kings genius. Can't be accused of tanking when the UDFA that's had our biggest impact this season is hurt.

and that same genius is the organization that recently decided that it's UDFA that had the biggest impact the last 2+ seasons, wasn't worth giving a consistent role and playing time. Will they make the same mistake with Cardwell? Until proven otherwise, I wouldn't be surprised

 

[Tetsujin]

Or, hear me out, he sprained his ankle at practice.

 

[ESP47]

There goes one of the few reasons left to continue watching.

 

[HndsmCelt]

It’s gonna be a long 4 to 5 weeks
