Doug Christie has a perfect opportunity in camp to acknowledge the roster divide and make it work for him. I really hope he puts Clifford, Carter, Keon, IJ, and Maxime as a solid unit and goes youth vs. the world in practice. If the rookies with their chemistry advantage carrying over from summer can make it tough on the vets it should really get the stars to dial it in quick, if the rookies lose, a little humility and testing should force them to raise their games. Maybe pull a Chuck Daly like he did with the dream team scrimmages and put a little fire under his stars butts. If Christie tries to mix and match this could be a cluster F. This is a "two timelines" thing for better or worse so just go full on into it rather than trying to force some kind of blending process.

Hopefully Bobby runs that pressure system he did in summer league. Yeah, not sure the starting lineup has the tools but maybe no more 3 point obliteration? Finally? lol.

Even if it’s just a variation of the pressure schemes we ran in Vegas this year, that would be a vast improvement over what the Kings were doing for most of last season
yes, but also, groan.

Bobby and DC already at least saying the things you would expect considering who they are.

Ok it’s been years of setting culture and this roster is filled with of combo guards. I’m sorry I’m done with growing culture! Tank or devote to veterans don’t do nothing or you end up in the play-in. Plus Scott said the roster is set. WTH?
Ok, show me with your lineups, otherwise, it’s just eyewash
Look at the lack of F’s listed for position. I mean, come on man.
