NOOOOOOO!!! Kings renounce rights to Dalembert!!

If Thabeet gets amnestied we better put in a bid.

He came out of college too early, everyone knew that at the time. He's been in the league for 2 years. I'm not going to give up on him yet, and for such a low price .. why not? You can't teach 7'3.
 
I'd be fine with taking a flyer on Thabeet to get up to the minumum, but unfortunately I don't hold out much hope for him. He can't do enough to get on the floor. His positives are height and shotblocking. Everything else is a huge weakness. For someone with his size and length, he can't even defend. I'd still give him a shot, but I wouldn't be optimistic about his chances of succeeding.

Definitely wouldn't hurt. Two 7footers (whiteside/thabeet) improve our chance that one might bloom into the defensive big we need. Here's to hoping.
 
It's been strangely quiet on the Dalembert front. I haven't heard anything about offers for him or teams pursuing him.
You mean the HOF at center we had last year was a bit overrated by the fans who freaked out with we renounced his rights. No that can't be it, he is probably waiting to decide which max offer he is going to take.

That's a useless comment. Demean your fellow posters and a player. What's the point?

There's some truth to it though. A lot of fans did get a little carried away with the Dalembert love. I think folks were just so happy to finally see someone protecting the basket that they overlooked the fact that the rest of his game ain't that great.
 
Defensive Cs are worth their weight in gold. Its a crying shame we wont resign him even though he's looking more affordable by the day

We may resign him yet. They said it's still a possibility. I was actually hoping he'd shoot himself in the foot by asking for too much and then we can just resign him at a reduced rate when no one else takes him. Looks like there's a chance it may happen too.
 
I’m really curious to see how this Dalembert thing turns out.

The Celtics and Heat are over the cap as it as so they won’t be offering him mich.

The Mavs would most likely only offer a one year deal

The Knicks got Chandler

The Warriors got Kwame

The Pacers got West

The Bulls and Magic could use him but only as a backup

Who does that leave as a serious suitor for him?

Houston, but they are interested in others as well.

I doubt Denver would want him. Nets going for Howard trade or Nene signing. It's possible they strike out on both.

At this stage the Kings have a better future than the Rockets. I thought he wanted to play for a good team. I guess if it's just about the money it makes sense but if he wants to win he's better off staying here. Houston is on the way down while the kings are on the way up.
 
Few bigs left on the market. We look in a better pos to sign him every day and surely we should but is GP even considering it.

This is dead set killing me. We need to sign sammy. If we do im happy to put on record that we will make the playoffs
