So did Vivek say anything of intrigue, or Dave ask him anything interesting? Had to work.

Some people make it to 80 for a reason!
Having to come to terms with me being far less healthy than 80-year old G-Man
This is over 30 minutes, the first 6 or 7 was the same Vivek life story I’ve heard 9 times. I turned it off. Did the say anything new or of value?
Nope and nope. Not Carmichael’s wheelhouse. Of course, they wouldn’t have made Vivek available if it was going to be anything other than softballs, but really no attempt made at asking any interesting questions. “How awesome was it to interview GM candidates with your son? Pretty awesome, right?” was about as close to the edge as we got. But, honestly, if it’s not going to be an interesting interview, just decline the offer. Let Ross do the boring company man stuff—it’s what he’s good at.This is over 30 minutes, the first 6 or 7 was the same Vivek life story I’ve heard 9 times. I turned it off.

Heard that Jerry said on Grants podcast he is retiring. Anyone know if this is true??
I stopped listening to Dave's broadcast when it sounded like it was going to be homerish, but I looked around and didn't see anything. I doubt it is official.
I wrote the same thing in another thread. I acknowledge its an atypical year and new front office, but yeah, sites are talking about players meeting with other teams but with less than a week from the draft no mention of Sacramento. Maybe I’ll see if the Bee says anything.I see all of these posts in Hoopshype about draft picks meeting with a lot of NBA Teams
Have the Kings had ANY of the potential draftees come to town?
Have not seen any news about who we have seen or met with? What?
Low key shade from HG? He posted an IG story of him in the gym with “They say Gizzle don’t work out in the off season”
As far as I know it was just Grant and the Kings that claimed he was so badly out of shape to begin last season.
With there literally only being like a week of free agency this season, there is an equally good chance of teams completely overlooking signing him or some franchise out there randomly throwing a stupidly huge contract at him.I like HG, this is a contract year, so he has extra motivation.
Exactly what are we "checking out"?

My interpretation, and I could be wrong, was that he followed Mr. Youngman’s previously established training routine rather than the new training staff, the new training staff pitched a fit, and when Harry picked up an extremely untimely training camp injury Vlade made one of the dumbest decisions in GMing history. Vlade and company then told Grant that Harry had not worked “correctly” or some such, which became “not a hard worker” to Grant’s hockey-tuned ear.Harry has a bit of a rep as not a hard worker. Could impact his free agent status.
Is Harry Giles the current version of Jimmer Fredette?
Thanks! Sorry, it is a bit of a pet peeve of mine when someone makes a vague comment and I have no idea what they may have been looking at that so interested them. That clarifies it!Interviews with Bey, Maxey, Nesmith and Williams about how they fit with the Kings. All are likely available at #12.
Wow.Thanks! Sorry, it is a bit of a pet peeve of mine when someone makes a vague comment and I have no idea what they may have been looking at that so interested them. That clarifies it!
(not directed at you) Or people that just post "wow" or something. It's like, what, we are supposed to know what you are "wow-ing" about?

Enlighten us.Harry has a bit of a rep as not a hard worker. Could impact his free agent status.
Enlighten us.
As far as I know, the only knock on Harry for his work ethic was about him not being prepared for summer league in 2019 (which could have had something to do with the injury that Harry had at the end of the previous season). So the front office overreacted (in hindsight they pretty much admitted that) and decided to pass on his qualifying offer. Any talk about his work ethic seemed to stem from that, and all we heard was 3rd hand speculation.
if there’s more that is CREDIBLE, I’d like to hear it.
