Thank You Buddy

[Capt. Factorial]

I have to admit, I didn't much believe in you when you came over in the Cousins trade, but you sure could shoot the hell out of the ball. I know you were hoping to be traded over the summer, but I was happy to see you take over the franchise lead in three pointers - I thought you deserved it. And I loved Peja. So.

Thanks for the memo-threes, and best of luck in Indiana and wherever else your NBA tour might take you.

Will never forget seeing the Motor City Miracle in person. Thank you, Buddy!

Thank you Buddy for being the strong workhorse who's always suited up and ready to go. Hope you can bounce back to your best in a more structured offense. Best of luck for your career.

Buddy Love!

The 2018-2019 team was the most successful team the Kings have had since the glory days, and Buddy was arguably the best player on that team. It was a privilege to see an athlete with a superlative skill bring his talents to Sacramento, and I wish Buddy the best in the rest of his career.

Well buddy has been my favorite king for a few years now. I’ve always like skilled bigs so sabonis should soften the blow a bit. Buddy was the only king that could get you jumping out of your seat when he got on a role.

Best of luck in Indy!

Probably my favorite Buddy moment. Brought us back from way down late in the 4th to beat the Clips.

Hope Buddy and Hali are part of a special group in Indy. Thanks for the fun Buddy, glad you got your wish for a trade

 

[SacTownKid]

Thanks Buddy! Indy has a bit of history with guards that can run around screens and shoot the heck out of the ball. Good luck.

Buddy Buckets or Buddy Blunder, we never really knew which one we would get! He provided a ton of highlight moments for the Kings, some special moments for sure. I don't expect his stay in Indy will be long ( I assume he gets flipped at the deadline next season after rebuilding his value) Good luck Buddy!

Buddy was exasperating at times, but his 3-point shooting contributed to many memorable moments for the Kings during the last few years.

 

[hrdboild]

If nothing else, I'll remember him fondly for that epic 3 OT win against the Lakers in November. I don't think he was used properly by Walton or Gentry and I hope he bounces back after his shooting struggles this season cause he is fun to watch when he gets video game hot from the three point line. It's all but guaranteed he's going to obliterate us at least once as a visiting player. Thanks for giving us some hope in the dark days/months/years after the Cousins trade.

 

[whitechocolate]

You've been my favorite King for a few years. I'll watch you and Tyrese ball any chance I get.

 

[KingsCitizen]

Good luck Buddy!
I hope you’ll never get Alvin coach you again in the future or you’ll get shipped in less than a season.

That's a good way of putting it. Gravity. And maybe now that he's gone people will see it more. That gravity was noticed once you saw how the defense reacted to him.

Buddy will do well with a coach who challenges him a little bit. He's been fun at the very least. And still not a laker.

 

[datamanwes]

Thank you for being the guy that broke the record for threes in Sacramento. Good luck to you
