I'm not sure if this is the appropriate section to post this, I didn't find no "introduce yourself" section so here it goes.

The Miami Heat is actually my favorite team, now your first thought is probably: "he's a bandwagon fan.."

I'm not, I have been a Heat fan since 09' which is the year I started following the NBA closely. I do love the Kings as well and they're my second favorite team.

Why do I like the Kings? It's because I watched them when I was a kid back when Stojakovic and Divac played, you see I'm serbian but born and raised in Sweden so they were of course two of my favorite players.

I do like the core of this roster currently, lots of potential and the 5th pick in the upcoming draft can't hurt :) But it looks like Tyreke won't be getting a extension, what's up with that?

Also, I wonder is this the most active Kings forum on the internet? I was disappointed when I couldn't find an official forum on Kings.com, like the one Miami has.

Nonetheless, I hope I can contribute in a positive way. Thanks :)
 
Welcome!

Welcome!

I think this forum is the best one out there if you are a Kings fan, so you made the correct decision, IMO...

PS: Go Beantown! :)
 
Welcome to our board. I settled here on this forum, because people actually have a vocabulary, beyond swear words. There are plenty of serious basketball fans on this board and a lot of knowledgeable and insightful commentary. Not that everyone agrees all the time, but that's what makes conversation lively.

I would have to say that Vlade Divac is still my most favorite Sacramento King ever. Love him and still miss him being around.

Welcome aboard! First, you get points for knowing how to spell Stojakovic's name. I don't know if being born Serbian helps in that or not, but I'm not holding it against you. Being raised in Sweden, must mean your favorite college player is Jeffery Taylor.

The extension is a little more complicated than just giving him one. Under the new CBA, teams are limited to one extension every five years, if I read it correctly. So, if they were to extend Tyreke now, they wouldn't be able to extend Cousins when his turn came up. So I think they're just being prudent.
 
Welcome to Kingsfans!

We had a lot of Serbian posters back in the days of Peja and Vlade. Glad to see our Kings are still followed.

Napred Kraljevi! (And no, I don't speak Serbian. That was just one of several phrases I picked up over the years.)

Just a note about how the board is set up: We have different threads for different topics. It's easier to follow that way. As an example, you'll notice an entire thread dedicated to the discussion of Tyreke and extension. Feel free to jump in.

Here ya go:

Welcome! I agree with Kennadog completely. You will find that many posters even have a life beyond basketball :) and periodically contribute info you won't find any other place.
