Walton might have to start getting more creative with his starting lineups. I am not so sure Dedmon is the answer, or Homes. I like Homes, but He seems like bench guy. Giles with Belly might be a good option.

That all depends on Giles growing a new knee. Even though he’s practicing now there’s still no timetable, and everyone’s playing the long-term with him for good reason.
 
If Dedmond isn't a serviceable starting center than that combined with the Bagley and Giles injuries are probably your season. We all griped about Willie's weaknesses but at the end of the day he was a league average starting caliber Center whose tools and skillset fit the team.

I think I was in the minority earlier when not keen on letting Stein go - especially for the fact that he signed for nothing - however it was also Stein's decision or desire to leave; Dedmon deserves more evaluation time. Although Stein would have lapses and bone-head plays, his lateral quickness was exceptional. His FTs were maddening. Again, this current team needed alot more practice clearly than what they've put in.

Maybe, but if Dedmon can't knock that 3pt shot down at a good rate then Homes needs to be starting....
 
Sheesh. Bagley is not coming off the bench. Especially after only one game this season. The team didn't do any better with Bjelica out there. Bjelica is a role player and not a critical piece on anyone's roster. The team needs to grow around their core. Not bury them on the bench.
 
Lets wait a bit on this. Bagley just had a bad game and still had a double double.

Bagley May become a good player one day.

He will Never come close to Doncic in the impact category.
Over the off-season and last 2 games. I have seen Doncic had gotten bigger, stronger, faster and already has the Clutch gene. The guy will be a legend. Only needed a muse in Porzingas to help elevate the rest of the Mediocre Mavs lineup.

Doncic’s BbIq is off the charts for his age.

But he’s already at his physical peak or something. He’s not going to continue getting better, I guess? He would have slowed us down and removed the ball from Foxes hands. Doesn’t FIT.

........ It hurts. It hurts so much.
 
OMG. Doncic is not a King. Get over it.
It's hard to get over your team passing on a generational talent when it was so obvious he was one and everyone was telling you he was one. At least when you didn't pick guys like Curry, Klay, Khawai, Giannis they weren't obvious. The closest comparison I can think of was T Rob over Lillard when you needed a PG in a guard driven league.

Yeah, the Blazers didn't need Michael Jordan when they had Clyde Drexler anyways. Terrible fit
 
Move on. We're kings fans, this is normal. It didn't happen.

Except, here’s the thing.

It should have. It was right there. We did this to ourselves. Which is why it hurts so much more.



We can always go back and “Tyreke over Steph, lol” except no one knew what Steph would be. No one knew what Giannis would be. Luka was as sure a thing as you could get.

"We" didn't do anything other than support our team. If you're upset about picks that's fine, but dont expect a time machine to show up.
 
As a fan I was really excited about this season. So far something just isn't right with the energy of the team. The crowd seemed off too.

Ohhhh the pronoun thing is silly. We / the Kings / they / the team we (fans) support. :p

I’m gonna always support this team. It’s just easy to be salty about things right now.
