Haha I was that way when we drafted Jimmer. This pick gives me another reason to get to the home games.
Born and raised in MI, but I've been a Kings fan since the Mitch Richmond days.

I really like Stauskas, but you're absolutely correct that it's two high draft picks for what will end up as only one SG.
Since we did draft Stauskas I am really hoping we can turn Ben into a PG or defensive big. That would end up making this a successful draft.
If we end the day exactly like this, it will be difficult to see what we're trying to do with both Ben and Nik.

Not an impossible conjecture.
Infest yourself with Golden State crap and you will end up like Golden State. Comparatively they should all bend down and kiss our collective rings. At least we had a prime, a contending period.

Again, I like his flexibility. Hell, I like Stauskus. Just don't think there obsession with guys that can do a little extra on offense is worth as much as focusing on things like the fact that these guys don't defend their own positions well, let alone others.
As of right now, without any further moves and assuming we resign IT, Stauskus would have the shoot in the pros like he did in college for us to even think about .500 ball.....and Ben has to take a next step. Looks like a 30 win season as of right now.....more moves please

I just hope we're not saying this exact same thing with Stauskas next year.
I think our front office looks incompetent.

I blame the GSW connection. They think they drafted Klay Thompson again

Disapointed with the pick but EXTREMELY disappointed with no trades.

Brb guys, I'll add Nik Stauskas to my NBA 2K14 roster and let ya'll know if we win a championship.
If you keep trying every year sooner or later you'll get it right?
We needed a lot of things. Shooters that don't defend well aren't as difficult to find via FA

I'm curious who the five fans in the war room with them are and how seriously they took their opinions.
But yes, our FO completely looks like it's winging it. Making it up as it goes.

Everyone leaving in the draft room
I think this is the last year I care about the draft. I've been sold the same line way too many times and it usually ends up the same way. We could have thrown a dart at a board and made a smarter pick. This makes sense on no level. The whole NBA draft 3.0 video where Malone talked about needing a shooter to space the floor seemed like a red herring to me. This is Mike Malone after all. The day we brought this guy to the team he talked nothing but defense. If he's saying we need a shooter and that's what we get, I give up. Whatever happens happens. I'm glad Sacramento still has a team. This might not be our decade, but I plan to live awhile longer.

Klay plays defense.
Quite a difference.
I wouldn't want Klay if he didn't play defense.

So it was an interesting day for you when we traded Mitch for Webber, right?
I was disappointed that we couldn't keep both, but it's Webber. I was really happy. He and Jwill...magic. most exciting team I've ever seen.

Malone tells us he sees similarities between Stauskas and Klay Thompson.
