I'm really worried that Vlade may see this as another year to win-now. No panic moves. I know we've been noncompetitive for so many years now, but this can't be the time to panic. I didn't like Vlade's trade with the Sixers and I'm afraid he will do something similar this year in order to attempt another all in or nothing season.
I think the right thing is to slowly rebuild around Cousins with a younger team, respected coach, better offense, chemistry, etc..but I can't see that happening. I see Vlade wanting immediate results by buying pieces that don't fit and making moves that don't benefit us past 1 year...For that reason, I think the Kings should just let go of both Karl and Cousins.
The Kings just need a mini-reboot, but I don't think that's what Vlade wants.
