Matt George is leaving Locked On Kings for new career opportunities. I wish him well and appreciate all the passion and journalistic reasoning he brought to us all.

He's going to be on 1140 mid-day, I believe.

I answered my own question -Stiles. I wonder if he is leaving or replacing a different time slot

Styles is moving to afternoons with Whitey.
Wait. Kings coverage isn't taking a blow here.
Oh, wait. Never mind.He's going to be on 1140 mid-day, I believe.

Yeah, my bad. From the comments on another site I understood he was moving out to the Golden State media scene... this is a much better development.

I wonder who will get the Locked On gig? Nunes?
This feels like a bit risky leaving a TV job and a podcast for a mid afternoon radio show.

I dont listen to 1140 anymore, what happend to Drapper?
I'll say. Not only am I out of market, my car doesn't even have AM radio.
He left the show - blaming his busy schedule if I remember correctly. I like Stiles a lot better in general and I think it should help the Drive Guys with this personnel change. I always love listening to Whitey - bringing him on was the best move they've made in a while.

Amick has been the amazing, we're so fortunate his purple roots ran so deep as his star ascended.
I'm out of market also... for me, 1140 is a YouTube channel or a podcast.

He literally says the same thing every week? They ask him whatever questions they have for the week, and he says he has no clarity on whatever subject they asked about.

What does that matter? It's a small town affair, obviously he'll be asked similar things and he'll answer similarly.
At this point, there is no one I care to listen to in Sacramento regarding the Kings outside of Deuce and Mo for entertainment purposes and Sam Amick for real organizational info. There is literally no one who has the level of league access AND the love for Sacramento.
I guess nothing if you’re ok with listening to a weekly interview not saying anything
I've listened to some of the other guys. George blocked me on twitter for clapping back at him once after stating something fundamentally obvious to anyone that watches basketball. I don't think he's cut for radio unless he doesn't take calls.
The Kings are like a soap opera right now. You can tune in monthly and get a recap of everything you missed.
He has the emotional EQ of a child which can still work in radio if you fire off constantly terrible hot takes and scream at anyone who calls you out on them in entertaining fashion. It's a WWE style circus. We all know who those guys are, even Grant took his turns at that. George is like Ham except he's usually more of a homer than a doomer. I don't think he understands the tank at all though.

I cannot agree more.
It's why I listed those 3 as the only people I really listen to regarding the Kings.
Bro made two of them.
George was hard to listen to when it was just him, but when he brought on a guest from another Locked On team then he’d tone his personality down and the discussion was often interesting.
I assume iv’e listened to just about all the different people that discuss Kings basketball and currently enjoy Allen Stiles and sidekick Kyle as well as Deuce and Mo the most.

Which should be serious enough of a crime, by putting such shame on Sacramento, for him to never be allowed in any front-facing media outlet.Bro made two of them.
