Why are you so salty over my opinion? It's just an opinion. I'm not on every page here freaking out and trying to change minds with it. I think this team as is is a great regular season team who probably shouldn't have much of a problem avoiding the play in. But I'm not confident in our chances to win a series against most of the other top teams in the West unless we address some of our issues. Simple as that.
Why are you so salty over my opinion of your opinion? It goes both ways, dude.
I'm not on every page here freaking out (like you clearly are here to my response and the KINGS decision to retain HB) and trying to change minds with it.
To prove it, please go back and re-read my response then point me to the section that "is trying to change your mind". I posed three questions and made one solitary statement regarding how flawed your thinking is. Simple as that.
As you stated yourself, "it's just an opinion", right?
If you don't like feedback on your opinions, you don't have to share your opinions for others to read. I'm completely content receiving feedback on my opinions, because I can defend them. Right or wrong.
You did nothing but throw out a snarky, negative spin without providing any supporting evidence whatsoever. That's why you're being called out for it. Not because you have a different opinion.
How about this. Try offering solid reasoning or evidence to support how re-signing HB and
possibly running it back with the same team (FA hasn't even officially started yet) will result in that you suggest, instead of throwing a baseless, snarky complaint up against a brick wall to see if it sticks.
My apology that you feel triggered for being called out, but that's how some like myself feel when others don't make the slightest attempt to support what they claim to be "their opinion" and, instead, just sarcastically rant about something they don't like.
That's precisely what you did.
Yes, the KINGS have issues. So does every team. Denver has issues too, but, unlike previous seasons, they were able to overcome those issues to win a title just a couple weeks ago. The Golden State Warriors won the title in 2022 with the same core and vast majority of the same roster they fiedled in 2023 yet experienced a different result in the form of a 2nd round exit.
Point is, the roster doesn't have to change drastically, or at all, to yield better or worse results.
The KINGS didn't address issues at the trade deadline yet were still able to hold on to the 3rd seed despite the masses predicting a fall. Why can't the same happen in 2023/24 (in terms of postseason advancement) with a few tweaks, more experience, more player development, and a shot or two dropping in situations where they didn't before?
That's what you're not considering. At least I can only assume, because you never even attempted to justify your snarky complaint.
