piksi
Hall of Famer
Never a dull moment around here. We lost to Hornets (so what - so did the Warriors and Jazz 
) then we lost DC. It sure has been an emotional last night for most of us. It was clear that changes would be made no later than the offseason but I did not think - it would be DC. Do not be surprised if something else happens on that regard before trade deadline. Yet another fan's favorite who will not retire as King. Buissiness of Basketball.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As always in such situation things can go both ways. You know what You gave up but You do not know exactly what You are going to get. I am not sure that real issues that Kings have - have been addressed with this trade but I am willing to give it a chance ( 2 games max - I have a reputation to uphold). DC will be missed by some teammates more than by others. Time to move on
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In case You did not know - Basketball will still be played and Kings are starting a strech 7/8 at home tonight. They will do so with only one PG (arguable). Mike will go for +40 tonight (minutes of course). Considering our performances - tonights game is wide open. No favorites. Still unclear who will start tonight. It sure will be strange to watch the game without #13 in it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
CW - will have to cary DC's load in passing or the team is not going to "work." Is he willing to do so - that reamins to be seen. I expect lots of jumpers tonight (hopefully they go in)
Pedja - Oh boy- One guy who was constantly looking for him is gone. No more easy lay ups of a laser pass. 4 pts per game right there. Hopefully, he will respond in a right way. If not - it will be a boring 2 man game all night long.
Miller - Once CM is here Brad might even compleately stop shootng. Brad - just take a shot man. TAKE IT !
Mike - He will play big minutes tonight. Generaly without DC he might get even more exposed defensively. I will try to count how many times he will run under screen on the pick and roll tonight. I can only count till 10 tough.
"fill in the blank" - whoever starts tonight will have to give a very sould contrybution on both ends of the floor. Good Luck.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tag - if given minutes he will do his usual.
Darius - was not a great road trip for him. We need more.
Depending on given minutes the rest of the bench (including Barnes this time also needs to have a solid contribution.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hopefully, he will not be surprised that we play Nuggets tonight. Will see how he adjusts to this change
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Denver is unfortunately capable of having a good game.

Go Clippers, Go Heat !
