If These Were Your Kings...Team 4

[Bricklayer]

I'm glad posting these teams created from historic Kings players has been found amusing. As long as the number of votes/responses holds steady I'll put up three new ones every day.

As always, the question remains: If we were about to head into training camp and THESE were your Kings this season, how many games do you think they would be able to win?

The best team so far. Lacks a little size up front, but I think it could be competitive in the frontcourt. It has scoring capability in the backcourt with three players that know how to score in different ways. It also has decent depth in the backcourt off the bench in Derrick Martin and Eddie House. Not a lot of assists being handed out by those two, but some instant offense. Brockman will help with rebounding off the bench and Higgins is a solid reserve. I don't care much for Wennington, and Solomon is nothing but a bench rider. I give this team 30 to 34 wins if the basketball god's smile upon them.

Probably the best constructed team so far, but I don't know about best record. Probably most consistent. baja hit the main points and i agree with most of them.

You've got a starting five that each actually know how to play their positions. You've got a good back up bid in Brock, and you've got a good scoring punch off the bench.

But let me say something about Brooke Steppe. The guy could play. Solid bench player who came over from KC. Heads up ball player in the old school tradition who could shoot and defend. So not a bad bench.

Salmons actually works on this team.

Closing them up. Onto the next trio.
