As one of the very few around here who does not have a deep-seated hatred of PDA, I will wish him well in Denver and hope that his moving on will bring some bring some sense of relief to a battered fanbase.

With report that Kings GM Pete D'Alessandro headed for Denver, I'm told Kings exec Vlade Divac has serious interest in Lakers' Ryan West.
That would be Jerry West's son.
Does this mean we can re-hire Petrie now?
Wishful thinking.
Pete was supposed to be Karl's ally moving forward. I wonder how this will impact Karl's relationship with Vivek and Vlade.
This is based on nothing, but it wouldn't shock me if D'Alessandro traded for Karl, despite Karl's poor relationship with Kroenke. It is strange that Denver hired PDA before they brought in their next head coach. I mean, at this point, no one in the Kings front office had anything to do with Karl's hiring. That's a weird position to be in if you're Karl, or Vlade.
We'll see. The plot thickens...

Wait..wait..wait... serious question: Doesn't this mean Denver has a huge drafting advantage? They now know who we're targeting and they can trade up to get their guy.
I tried giving Pete the benefit of the doubt, but F U PETE
Dave tweets a lot of stuff.. I doubt this means Karl is gone. We could've had a monkey as a GM, and even it would've chosen Karl as the new coach.Dave was cryptically tweeting about "crazy scenarios" in play now, so you may be on to something.

Well one of them killed our season, one of them is the All Star future of the franchise.... just saynAmazing how much hate there is for this guy. You can say anything you want, call him names, etc. and nobody cares here but if you criticize Boogie you're likely to get banned.

OK, I almost took you seriously there.Who knows whose fault it was exactly this last season was. I'm sure there was a lot of blame to go around. Boogie has never won 30 games, he's not without blame too.

Interesting that the competing narratives continue. Woj takes a swipe at Vivek hiring Vlade and says Vivek forced PDA to fire Malone. Jason Jones essentially says the opposite. Perhaps unsurprising given that Woj's source is likely PDA and Jones is someone closer to Vivek, but interesting nonetheless.
