Kyrie Irving

I only trust Woj, Shams, Shelburne, Aldridge, and Windhorst(sometimes). For local Kings, I think Ailene Voisin is the most connected insider, followed by Jason Jones. James Ham seems to be more of a PR guy for the Kings.

AV is a hack who fabricates (or, at least, in the past has admitted to fabricating) quotes and actively pushes agendas instead of reporting news. Jason Jones is rarely, if ever, the first with anything and is more interested in tweeting about rappers than anything Kings related. He will confirm or echo things that others get first, but as beat writer he often seems to be lacking IMHO. Could be because he is a big Lakers fan?

I'm not going to discuss Ham at all. He's an *** and I have no respect for him whatsoever. If he's on TV or radio I change it, quickly. Thankfully, after calling him out on some of his crap, he blocked me so I don't have to see anything he puts out even if it is quoted by others. And I am fine with that. He doesn't break any news, either.

Sam Amick, Scott Howard-Cooper, and Aaron Bruski are all good follows and have good Kings connections/insights. Aaron has some definite opinions on certain items he is not afraid to push but I don't mind. At least he isn't making **** up like AV.

Spears and Stein too.

And some local folks - Dave and Kayte, etc.

I had little regard for Jason Jones in the past, but I have changed my opinion. His coverage of the Kings over the past year or so has been fair and impartial, which is good enough for me.

Other day Ailene was tweeting in earnest about which uniform number fit Pablo Sandoval better. Swear to God you can't make up her kind of crazy. She must have naked pictures of somebody important to keep a job at the Bee.

I never said unfair or partial. Just scarce and uninspired. It's like he doesn't even work at it. For a beat reporter there is scarce "reporting" going on.

We'll have to agree to disagree about the particulars. Bottom line? At least he's not R. E. Graswich! :p
 
More like Joerger not a big fan of Irving.......Irving as a number 1 option is is not as great as Irving with Lebron.
