Kings Bidding On Jamal Crawford??????

[Uncia03]

Hopefully this allows us to be a bit more aggressive in pursuing AK and maybe Dalembert as well.

 

[Fear the Putin]

Keep on pushing!

Time to land AK!
Hopefully follow with a right hook and snatch Dalembert

Yahoo!

Thank god.

 

[Section 101]

lock this up!

 

[Dime Dropper]

Good news. Wish we'd pursue Dalembert but don't see it happening. Don't see us landing AK either. Will be interesting to see if we go after anyone else.

That there is even a debate on whether this attempted signing was a good move or not leaves me stunned. Just, wow.

 

[rhythmless]

Yup, just read that tweet too. Soooooo Geoff...what's your plan???

Edit: Hey, remember that Dalembert guy??

No, we're obviously in need of score first swingmen. Geez, where have you been?

Let us say we do not sign him, we amnesty Cisco, and sign AK47 and Daly. How would that be?

 

[Sac.1989]

good news we stay the course with mins for the youngsters and hopefully turns GP to sammy and AK

 

[Kingster]

That would require showcasing him though. An asset you pay for, but do not play (due to stacked roster at the g/f positions) a lot loses value.

Exactly. We would have to showcase him. Haven't we done this before?

I'm a little disappointed that he chose Portland. Mainly because the Kings are still very young overall. As of now their only vets are Salmons, Hayes, and Garcia and with all the guards and SFs on the team Garcia doesn't look to be getting much playing time this year. Crawford would have given them someone they could have counted on to score in the 4th quarter of close games. They lost so many games last year because the young guys were crapping their pants and making dumb mistakes in the last few minutes of games. You need someone with poise and experience to score in those situations and Crawford would have fit that role perfectly. I really, really hope they get AK47 now because they desperately need some proven veteran players on this team or I'm afraid it might end up being a repeat of last year.

Hopefully. He's still really young though and I'm going to need to see his play from last year carry over into this year before I'm going to have enough confidence to say he's our go-to 4th quarter guy.
