Whose consensus?
I could write a longer list of positives re MBIII. But to what effect? They are there to be seen if you want to see them. But you don't want to see them. Instead of enjoying what might be in front of you, you all want to be sad and stare at your ex girlfriends instagram (in this case not your ex but a girl that wouldn't even talk to you...?) Maybe you want to do this because ... ?

Doncic as generational? Seems a stretch right now.
According to the same people who think the Kings are already a joke, because they didn't take Doncic. Who cares? Nobody here but you.... we have an GM with a bad record/resume/reputation who I want let go at the end of the year. ...
Or his picks could hit and we could have the pieces to be contenders as the wheels fall of the GSW, Houston and LeBron wagons.Well, if you read the thread you know why I do, because IMO we have an GM with a bad record/resume/reputation who I want let go at the end of the year.

How can you wish the worst case scenario? A new GM... another rebuild???
Doncic has been a pro in Europe, if the only goal this season is to win the most games and minimize the impact of the lost 2019 pick then I think Doncic was an absolute no brainer. If the goal is best player in the draft (or second best if you believe the first is Ayton) then there were a lot more long term options.
You're still citing realgm as if it was evidence in your favor. Wow.https://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=1732064
According to everyday basketball fans. Not like the fans on this site who a segment I consider intentionally positive (43 against Divac, 17 for, 6 maybe in the summer, in case some here vote late)
I think most on SactownRoyalty want a change as well from my experience
random NBA fans are good enoughYou're still citing realgm is if it was evidence in your favor. Wow.
That's totally fair. You love the Kings, but not the game.In fairness it doesn't make a difference to me - I am happy to support MBIII and mostly ignore Luka.
To be honest...Doncic as generational? Seems a stretch right now.
That's totally fair. You love the Kings, but not the game.
Wait....are you really saying he can be a hall of famer if he retires right now?To be honest...
Actually we are minimizing his results right now saying he's (just) generational.
No one in the history of the game has been so successful at 19 years old, both personally and carrying his team.
He could even be an hall of famer if he retires right now checking what he has already achieved.
If I'm wrong, I'm open to hear some players name with a better cv at his age. No Jordan, no LeBron, no Kobe, etc etc.
Do I think he's gonna be a better player than those guys? No, I don't.

hyperboleWait....are you really saying he can be a hall of famer if he retires right now?
Maybe I'm concerned about how much energy I have to give to this... :/That's totally fair. You love the Kings, but not the game.
So now you're going to quote StR? Why do you even bother to post here since we're clearly the outlier?
"...everyday basketball fans. Not like the fans on this site..."
Wow. I am truly sorry we are all such a disappointment to you.
hyperbole
[hahy-pur-buh-lee]
noun Rhetoric.
- obvious and intentional exaggeration.
- an extravagant statement or figure of speech not intended to be taken literally, as “to wait an eternity.”
Not really. I was just pointing out what he has already achieved is literally incredible.
So we're prejudiced because we don't agree with a bunch of morons on realgm or wherever else you want to move the target to, and you're not? I haven't used the ignore function until now because of the entertainment value, but enough idiocy is enough. Buh Bye!I post because it’s a Kings site and to state my opinion, not because of who else is on the site. I don’t think it’s in the charter of the site to have to subscribe to “intentional positivism”.
I have no disrespect/care for the “intentionally positive” opinion, but will challenge it if it’s challenging me on an issue
Unfortunately we judge players (and teams) by facts and not by unproven potential.Him being the only one who did doesn't mean he's the only one who could.

I didn't even named Marvin Bagley, I was jus talking about Doncic.We also usually wait until we have enough facts collected to judge anyone.
Both guys have played zero actual minutes that matter. Why not wait until we've got enough empirical evidence either way before decidedly saying A>B?

And pro basketball matters. Euroleague and European Championship matter.
