[Bricklayer]

And its time for the last trio. So whadya think? If this team composed of historical Sacramento Kings were our team headed into training camp this season, how many games would you be predicting they'd win?

This isn't a bad team. Definitely weak at the center position, but fairly strong everywhere else. Decent scoring off the bench with Funderburke, McGee, and Del Negro. I think the team would be decent defensively as well. I'm giving it 35 to 39 wins. If it was in the east, I'd give it 40 to 44 wins.

Hmmm...well, I think it wouldnt be a BAD team per say...but, definitely not a GOOD team. I think this team probably goes with a 9 man rotation, I always liked Trevor Wilson off the bench, he's very scrappy. Mike McGee and his knuckleball of a jumpshot would be good too. The starting lineup would be BIG, with Reggie at PG and Hedo at SF. Oldham was never a REAL force in the middle, although he did have a great knack for swatting shots(I think Whiteside could turn out to be a better version of him, in the end...which is fine with me). Wayman would probably average more than 22.9 on this team I think.

These threads are funny to me. Just shows how bad the talent pool has been in Sacramento for the last 20 years or so. Pretty much none of these teams would have a chance at the playoffs unless the conference was just really weak that year. For every Webber, Peja, Mitch and Tyreke, there are 6 other scrubs that surround them.

Can we get a different coach???? PLEASE???? Otherwise, I have to think this team might actually do okay.

 

[Bricklayer]

Its hard to get too excited by a team led by Theus and Tisdale, but I have always thought that this team, both in its starters and its bench, was one of the most logically constructed. All niches covered. Everybody can play their positions.

Closing this poll up now.
