In an era that features wing depth and length to have 8 guys (counting TD) who are below a 8’ 7” standing reach and a 6’9” wingspan and of them only 1 is a proven ball handler is a pile of turd

Shroder
Monk
Carter
Lavine
Ellis
Clifford
DeRozan
TD

I disagree and i don’t think this will be our final roster anyhow. When i say it’s not a pile of turd, I’m strictly talking talent.

 

[NewArena]

Meh. Team option 3rd year would have been nice, but 4 million guaranteed isn't horrible. Cuts into potential space though. Those little hits never work out for the Kings in the end. Hopefully Perry didn't just add more mess to the pile.

Dennis will be easy to move as long as he stays healthy IMO

This is such an underwhelming move. It’s so unexciting… but Schroeder also strikes me as the kind of guy who gets Sacramento money and immediately loses interest in trying to play good basketball ever again so that should be fun.

I appreciate the cynicism, and agree that so much has been "underwhelming" since draft day. But I have doubts that Doug Christie is going to let anyone coast on the team next year.

There's pretty much nothing a coach/organization in NBA can do if a player is not putting adequate effort. You can bench the guy/reduce his minutes, and fine him. Pretty much any move that will make the environment more toxic, make the player demand a trade, and force you to take pennies on the dollar. That's the price of guaranteed contracts.

Nice to have a GM who acquires 2nds versus wasting them. Good move

Don't lie! You miss your dear ol' friend, cash considerations...

I sure hope not. From everything I've heard about Schroeder, he is a "Dawg" out there on the floor. I think that is the main reason Perry targeted him.

Dennis showed a lot of heart in the playoffs this year. I'm excited to have him.

Really? He seems pretty passionate about the game to me but i guess we’ll see. Now, i’m not throwing a block party for this acquisition either but yeah lol

Wasn’t George Hill a firey excellent leader hailed by Pop as such a good one?

Then Sacramento.

I don’t know anything about that, I’m just talking about his passion AND his impact on Detroit last year can’t be denied. George Hill is a good comparison but that doesn’t mean it’s gonna happen again. They have nothing to do with each other lol that’s just trauma talking and i get it

What's sad is the metrics show that George Hill's "awful" half season with us is basically Schroder's ceiling impact wise.

Or was Schroder's ceiling, back in his prime.

Stats don’t always accurately tell a story and certainly can’t always measure impact

So whats the over under on us using MLE for Kuminga? And then if we do that whats the likelihood 1) he signs it and 2) GSW matches? My understanding is they also have their full MLE.

Can be structured to be favorable to Kuminga with a poison pill we may be willing to eat now but they may not (15% trade kicker or NTC) as others suggested because we know that they DONT view him as a future piece, rather just an insurance policy and they dont want to move him in division and his only value to them outside of insurance is his value ti others (which it seems they overestimated).

As far as any further s/t talk with GSW i think i walk away from any discussion at this point that potentially involve yiung assets. I'm not giving them devin carter for sure! They can take DDR if they can make the money work (they'd probably have to send out buddy) but they're not getting carter. For their obstinance im either signing him outright from them to MLE, or going to make them give him a contract unfavorable to them. Everyone else uses us, lets use ourselves and put our rivals in a difficult position. Why offer carter in a 1 man auction? Dont need to leverage our future options against ourselves. Dont love the Schroder move but i do love the GMing to maintain flexibility.

True but have you ever tuned into a game and thought that the Kings were going to have their hands full because Dennis Schroder is in town?

But to be fair, I can’t imagine any other fans are saying that about any of our current players.

Unlike Shroeder, George Hill didn't want to play in Sac. Amazing how he perked right back up again as soon as he got traded. Similar story to Jason Terry if I recall correctly...

I think they do with Domas. I remember thinking that back when he was a Pacer when he was bullying our guys down low.

Unfortunately, yes lol
