The Kings of the past were not a great team simply because of the individual players by themselves. They were a great team and I'm my opinion one of the greatest teams of all time because they played team ball like no other franchise has done before. Predicting each others cuts and passes is not something you get by bringing in new big name players, all it does is slow down the process.
Why do you think a lot of Bibby goes to Brad so much? Not because he likes him more, but because he trusts him with the ball. And there is that trust because of the time they have played together.
And after watching the game tonight vs. the Spurs i could see it in these guys, Ron talking to Bibby about playing harder D, Shareef pulling back Bonzi and calming him down from getting a Technical, Ron showing so much heart for our team every game, Kenny just being the savage that he is on the boards, Brad ALSO fighting for boards and you cannot deny how much he has stepped his defence up in the last couple weeks. These guys want to win, and they want to win in Sacramento.
If we want to see that team ball like we love here in Sacramento we HAVE to keep Bibby, Bonzi, Ron, Shareef, KT, Miller, Martin, and Garcia together. You can see how much this new team has progressed over this year, watch how great they will be next year. We sure as hell wont be fighting for an 8th spot.
Keep these players, bring in a decent back up PG, as well as a decent defensive pf/center and i think that this team will be one of the Elite teams next year.
