I don't see what we'd be interested in from DAL or TOR.
- TOR aren't parting with VanVleet, Trent, Anunoby, Barnes, or Siakam
- Achiuwa isn't a good fit next to Sabonis
- Flynn is redundant with Fox & Mitchell
- Boucher is a UFA after this year
- Brunson is redundant with Fox & Mitchell
- Finney-Smith is a UFA after this year
- Bullock is okay but he's 30
- I like Green but he doesn't exactly scream "win now" which is McNair's vision
I guess Porzingis to SAC confirmed!
I mean Porzingis does have the shooting, defense, & shot blocking you want next to Sabonis but I think he's best when he's playing C on defense vs. PF so not sure the fit is as good as it may appear.
Jimmer Fredette I presume
We could add in additional draft capital possibly or something else but DFS would be nice….the impending free agency though is a killer.

guessing if/when this team fails to make the play-offs after teams:
1) target Fox-Sabonis repeatedly on offense 2) sag into the paint on defense daring us to shoot
Monte will deservedly be fired.
but Vivek will be in charge of hiring his replacement and as we all know:
****INGStupid
Don’t we have a guy that gets to the rim?

Sabonis and Fox both have the mid-range and in game that becomes so important in then postseason. The trick now will be figuring out how to get there.
Kings are going to get Harris aren’t they?

Harris and a pick or two for Barnes and Bagley’s expiring.
That deal wouldn’t fit the win now agenda

Doesn't help if that guy can't stretch the floor and is a below average passer once he's in the paint. Defenders just collapse the middle. See 2H of last night's game.

Watch they go for that tht + nunn + frp in like 10 years

I guess that technically works but that logjam at guard would be absolutely legendary for the pacers.
Geez, give it a rest, Fox is what he is which is a good player, worry more about the surrounding pieces and what they need to do. Fox isn’t Hali, Hali isn’t Fox. Both can be good you know. And both need pieces around them to help win.

Hopefully the next part brings in a good piece but order of players I’d rather go out is bags then holmes then Barnes. I know they want to move Barnes but I think he really fits with sabonis and we need what he brings.

This is suspicious as it might take Okc out of Tank Title Contention

My bet: Jerami Grant is part 2. Bags + the Kings 2022 first for him.
My wish list:
Barnes to Boston for Pritchard and a protected first. Or Barnes to NYK for Kemba and a protected first. Or Barnes to Utah for O'Neal and a protected first.
This team needs a backup PG now. A second to ATL for Delon Wright?
And would love for them to try to get Trey Murphy from NO.
I don't think the Kings need a defensive big. Mostly because Sabonis has to play the 5. Play a defensive 5 next to him and it compress his value. Len and Jones is fine as back up 5s.
