Kings free agency, part 3
- Thread starter Darth Divac
- Start date
As a charter member of the Jason Thompson fan club, I have to say that any deal that turns him, Landry and Stauskas into Rondo, Belinelli and Koufos is a pretty good one, by most objective standards.
If we can re-sign Casspi, we'll be in pretty good shape.

Boogie has no reason to not buy in anymore. Its up to these guys to lay it all on the line and put their egos aside.

As I tweeted last night, hearing Casspi re-signing with #Kings still a possibility

Don't be greedy.
Personally, I think Casspi will round out the 2015 free agency acquisitions quite nicely.Wow, look at that depth chart:
Rondo/DC
Beli/BMAC
LBJ/Gay
CUZ/LBJ
KK/WCS
One could wish. Or if LBJ wants to win a championship. .....

Well with casspi its only 12 players. I just figured there is one more FA signing prob won't be as splashy but will fill it out. Of course we have alot of vets now wouldn't hurt to fill it out with some potential from summer leagueDon't be greedy.
The Kings still need Casspi, a third PG, another bench wing and one more big, ideally a stretch 4.
Go get 'em Vlade.

McCallum is still here for our 3rd pg. he'll he has started over 30 games in last two years. He should be able to handle 3rd pg duties. He was one of only 5 players still here from last year. I don't count moreland since he never played
I figured McCallum might get moved in a sign and trade to open up a slot for Miller at the vet minimum while using up the remaining cap space on a SF or PF. But if we go into the season with Ray I wouldn't be upset.
Kings still need a backup SF, a deep bench SG/SF and a PF. Casspi, Bargnani and a guy like Liggins or James Jones would be nice.

Bargnani makes a ton of sense now considering we can mask his defensive deficiencies with WCS and Kosta. An under the radar option may be a guy like Andrew Nicholoson but we'd have to make a small deal for him since he's under contract with ORL

Would love to get Perry Jones from OKC with the Acy trade exemption. Talk is they need to unload salary to sign Kantor.

This is the first time in like forever that I can recall a bunch of names of free agents thrown around that we would want that we actually got. Yes we missed out on Wes, ellis, Tobias and Beverly, but the players we got, though not all are stars, are players that fit what we envision this team needs. National media might be bashing us or laughing at us, but I am seriously happy with what this team is becoming. Can the team implode? Can DMC choke rondo in practice or rondo chuck a ball at karl's head in frustration? Sure. But I'm betting on things working out cuz I'm a kings fan and even though things never seem to go right, we always believe it will get better one day. Anyone else feel that day is coming sooner than later after what we've accomplished this offseason?
wow let's revist the Philly Trade again
Philly: JT/Landry/Stauskas/1st round pick/swaps
Kings: Bellinelli, Rondo, Koufos
Stauskas became Bellinelli
The protected 1st round pick and swaps became Rondo and Koufos
Dumped JT and Landry salary off the books.
Me Likey !
Really terrific work by Vlade this offseason but to be fair we already had some of that money available so it's more like JT/Landry/sauce plus 1st rounder for Marco/koufos/euro guys/plus anyone else we sign. Still a deal I can live with.
Most excited I've felt as a fan in a long time.

The thing with Miller is and always has been is he''s a guy that always wants to play so he might just go some where else where he can be a back up PG, him not playing in Denver lead to him being traded cause of the Shaw thing and also in Washington he rightfully or wrongfully thought he should have been playing more. I'm not so sure he would comeback as a 3rd guard even being 40.

I think we could still use a wing defender.

Don't Make Me Use The Bat
Barnes becomes an interesting name if Omri is reluctant. Too bad I think he and Vlade missed each other by a single season with the Kings, because I would think at his age if he's cut loose he'd probably still be in the sign with a contender mentality.

With DMC, KK, WCS, Moreland and Smith our 4+5 positions would be loaded as f...
But we still have noone outside of Ben and Rudy, who can guard athletic SG/SF.
This would be our achilles heal.
Oh and that and zone defense....
