I'll take it a bit further, with all due respect to Kings fans which I've been one for 40 years. Too many fans go giddy every time some mediocre talent or want-to-be star added to the roster. Loser mentality. Kings will continue to go languish NBA no mans land until they get legit superstar or two of them. Their make shift roster of misfit pieces won't cut it and Coach DC defense identity so far a disaster. Maybe it's just Kings fans fate to live with a franchise full of mediocrity and misery.

And if that superstar or superstars are young draft picks, they can't just load up their cap the next day with mediocrity. Be smart about it this time please.

Life’s pretty good in Philly these days. I’ve passed the shoe throwing baton to my wife during the games (she has over taken me as the biggest eagles fan in the house)
 
Right now, the only player in whose performance I'm interested in is Devin. Unfortunately, he won't get meaningful playing time, so it's a pointless desire.

We all have a fair idea of Keon's capabilities. Worse, given our dysfunction, I wouldn't be too surprised if he signs elsewhere. Nique will get his chance, particularly given how thin we are on the wings.

Devin has that dog in him. He takes pride in his defense. In his limited minutes, he has had, he has a net +-. I know it's not a very reliable stat, and we need to see if he can replicate that in extended minutes against other teams' stars. However, in the general doom and gloom, this is a rare ray of hope. I would like to see him get major minutes with a focus on defense, particularly when we are playing a guard focused team (Reaves/SGA).
