Clearly I’ll be disappointed if Bagley’s name is called for the 2nd pock tonight. BUT, we have to root for the kid. We want him to like Sacramento, in case he does well.
On a side note, we have to trade WCS and/or Skal if Bagley is the pick.
You've go to be kidding, this is the Kings. There's never too much of a good thing. I say keep them all and make a hard run at Derrick Favors or Julius Randle in the summer.

Oy... I don't want to imagine, but just for a minute imagine if they're wrong about this kid?

And we get to look forward to the pursuit of the vastly overrated Mario Hezonja now too.
I wish we could fast forward 2-3 years instead of having to hear this "gotta let it play out" crap and dump Vlade ASAP. The guy primarily drafts bigs and can't get one right.
Bagley may very well be a 'good' player. But this team needed a difference maker. Being a 20/10 guy doesn't necessarily equate to difference maker.
And can fans and Peaches stop already with the "Scot Pollard says" crap?? I get that the guy was a King and a fan favorite. But he's NOT a GM or talent scout and never has been. He's no more right (or wrong) than any of is fans. Period. We can all point to things we said that ended up being right too. I said Steph Curry over Tyreke Evans, so I suppose I'm just as qualified as Scot. Pollard fully admits he hasn't seen much of Luka therefore doesn't have a clue whether Bagley is an inferior/superior selection. Scot almost always sides with a big man regardless. Just because Pollard predicted that Ben McLemore, Thomas Robinson and Jimmer Fredette would all suck doesn't make him a basketball oracle. Lots of fans predicted the same.
You think Dave is being serious? Seriously?
I read CDs tweets. If FO was locked in nothing you can do. I don't like it. They better be right. But seriously nobody had Bagley at 1 besides Kings so maybe they should have just said so loud and clear so we wouldn't all have fallen in love with someone they wouldn't pick. If they miss while ignoring the fan base and the fan's pick blows up, oooooh boy.
I dunno. I have to go pick up my kid now...

I'd say it's reasonably clear he is.
Why would he troll like that? To see if a Givony or some other national J/A picks it up, runs with it unsourced and then he can pull a gotcha?
I guess that would be amazing but I've accepted Doncic is a fantasy now.
I'm not sure what Dave is doing any more. It doesn't really matter, however. In about 20 minutes we'll know for sure and some of these talking heads are gonna look foolish. I just think there's a lot of bandwagon Bagley going on so people can cover their butts.
As long as it's not Porter, I'm happy.

If they pick Doncic it will be an incredible smokescreen and I would absolutely love it. This is fun regardless of the outcome now.
I'll be honest when I read over the tweets it hits every single negative nerve that you could have and paints the FO as incompetent. Deliberately so.I'm not sure what Dave is doing any more. It doesn't really matter, however. In about 20 minutes we'll know for sure and some of these talking heads are gonna look foolish. I just think there's a lot of bandwagon Bagley going on so people can cover their butts.

And also why would they keep their lips shut for a month and then go public with this an hour before? Crazy. Oh well.
