The "Sim Lottery" button seems to be rigged for Kings fans - in about 20 tries they bestowed the Kings the #1 at least 5 times. Of course #10 was the most common at about 8 times.
Kings get a "D" for tanking - done right they could've been where the Raptors are now. - 11% better chance at a top 4 -- not dynamite but measurable.
My Most Coveted player -Mobley. Better chanced coveted player: Kuminga.......mock drafts still have Kings going after Scottie Barnes, Franz Wagner, or Jalen Johnson..

id give us a B- or C+ for tanking. When we really started to tank, 6 was a real long shot so our best chance was 7. Considering we could have dropped to 10-11, i think tied for 8th is decent or a little better than that considering the kings could have really KANGZ'd it up. We beat the lakers and mavs, had a chance at making the playins, and only dropped 1 spot from our best case scenario considering we didnt do a thunder and start the tank in march.

Regardless of where they end up, the Kings should be in a position to acquire yet another promising young player to add to De'Aaron Fox, Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield. Of course, obviously, they'd prefer to have as high of a pick as possible.
...."yet another" - the subtle, warranted shade. Good luck selling tickets next year.

And he plays a position of need. A semi developed role player like him will actually make this team better next year. I think there are more talented prospects but the opportunity for pure talent to shine is slim with this roster right now. Unless someone major drops he'd be a really good get at this point.
The team wasn't trying to tank, they were trying to make the playoffs. So for that they get an F.
Since the bar was so low, they let ten teams in and 33 wins would have likely done it - 32 if we had beaten the Spurs, I'm going to downgrade the F to an F-MINUS.
Anywho, as long as we have Fox, we're going to finish 6-8 at WORST. Tanking is never going to happen. We're capped out, nobody wants to trade for Bagley or Buddy. We might lose our 3rd or 4th best player over the last 2 seasons for nothing. There is one thing we could change that might actually improve things all around and it appears we are unwilling to do that.
We are in permanent purgatory.
Lotto gods please save us.
