Yeah and getting no real assets when trading away Fox…. That was deadly.
Hopefully that Minnesota pick turns into something. Kind of a shame they weren't allowed to gut the team for 2-3 years of Giannis that would come to an end right when they owe us a pick.
He is a 28 year old wing with length. People seem to forget we traded away Barnes and never replaced him. Now maybe we get one this draft but our most likely pick is Flemings.
I'm not thrilled about this move but really the net of this deal was we traded Keon for a wing. Perhaps sold the owner on a complete rebuild which was increasingly necessary after the failed (and actually devastating) 2024-25 season acquisitions. And if it doesn't work out its over after one season, which again right now are major problem seems to be immovable contracts nobody will take without us sending our picks to them.
We are losing and they should already be gone. There are months to go of a sh** show in which the organization continues to compromise the younger players they want for the long term. It's total hypocritical conflicted double standard BS. Where is that identity Perry was looking for? Identity? HA HA HA. OMG.
The unfortunate result is we just learned how bad a lot of contracts we thought were ok when we signed them are.
Carter cannot as he is not long enough. But he can become Davion. However, if we end up five he gets stuck behind Flemings.
Carter was playing where he needed to play. Stockton was the correct place to work on his transition to point guard.
Really love how you emotionalized business decisions.
He should have been playing as a secondary guard/defender (e.g Melton)in the NBA you can't become a PG it's either something you have or don't the Kings need to stop wasting time, for all the hype Mitchell has got in Miami he's still a terrible PG (solid overall player)who cant make plays in the pick and roll and got assists due to a insane pace Miami started playing with.
Well this is a you problem and really doesn't matter to anything on this board because you're looking for information that cannot be proven, even if it mattered. This is the single worst argument/point/opinion I've ever read on this board.
Then he might as well move to Europe. He is too small to play 2 guard in the NBA. His dad knows that which is why he has been training him as a point.
Russ is worth basically nothing! Talk about a value trap!
So why did he do those moves?
How exactly do you think Perry's actions are byproducts of Vivek?
I think Vivek is EXTREMELY influential in the type of moves that are made and, in many instances, even in the specific player that is acquired.
If the Kings want to stand on principle they shouldn't play Westbrook, DDR or LaVine one freaking minute if they aren't willing to go all-out on defense. The idea that the minutes should be evenly distributed irrespective of defensive effort is a political maneuver to keep everyone happy, not the principle to form an identity around defense. Everyone seems deliriously happy over this half-ass compromise because the first half of this season was so incredibly stupid. I get it. The Stockholm syndrome is at play. We've been held hostage to such incredibly stupidity and duplicity for months so that the half-ass compromise is better than nothing.
