Koufos to the Kings!

Josh Smith, Casspi, Miller and a surprise lock down defender from the summer league. Done.


No need or room for smith. Just minor things now. Get a 4th big (acy or Reggie Evans or the Serbian dude we are looking at- I love Evans for this role- allowing Morelsnd to be 5th big), add a cheap 3&d bencher (no clue who is available, but someone like James Jones), sign caspi and bring ack dre miller. Done!!!

So you are going with Koufos starting?
 
I like the signing, and I do think that he is, generally, an upgrade over Thompson. I don't know if he's $2M a year worth of an upgrade, but I'll chalk that up to the "Sacramento" tax. Strong offseason by Divac!

I've long been a proponent of JT as a third big off the bench on a good Kings team but I think it's been time for him to move on for a while now. Too much dysfunction during his tenure without success or an opportunity to experience NBA life on any other team. I think Koufos will be a slight talent upgrade but likely a big on court attitude upgrade as a guy who willingly accepts his role as a rugged defender & rebounder.

Liggins could possibly be that SL player.

probably a smarter player as well. Im sorry but JT did a bonehead thing or two, nearly every game, (kinda like Garcia used to do) and it was
absolutely infuriating.

I think Acy or Evans will be back but I just think they'll want some shooting at PF, unless they plan on playing Gay and Casspi there at times during the season
 
Somewhere in the 5-7 mil range.

Rondo,collison,mccallum
McLemore,belinelli,Anderson
Gay
Koufos,WCS,Moreland
Cousins,WCS
Pretty much pay omri get a 4th big like an evans or acy and call it a day. Its our best team talent wise in a decade or so and is very balanced

How is his defense? Can someone break him down for me? It's been a while since I had did any research on Koufos.
