I have faith in T-Rob. There is no reason why he can't develop in to a Kenneth Faried type player. Speaking of Kenneth Faried.... He's putting up 12 and 10 in 28 mpg in his second season and has surpassed the development of Jason Thompson who is in his 5th season and was picked 12th. Faried was picked 22n'd in his draft. Sometimes it really is luck of the draw.
Nothing against JT because i love him, but its just sucks to think about how good we could have been with the right picks.

I totally agree. Trying to split viewing time between this game and the fiasco in Seattle didn't work out, so I'm rewarding the effort and watching the Kings. What I'm seeing is a team that is doing their best under some very bizarre circumstances.
Wasn't it mentioned that Evans might be suffering from patellar tendonitis? I don't think his injury is just because he had a bruise.

Anybody can pick a good team two years after the draft. 
Man, what if it did, though? In fact, now that I think about it, so that any team that misses the playoffs five years in a row, should get to have a draft do-over! Take the Kings, for example: our first year of missing the playoffs, during this most recent decline was 2006-07. So, we should be allowed to re-do the '07 draft. Imagine if we were allowed to retroactively take Marc Gasol instead of Spencer Hawes?
If JJ would simply shoot jump shots or set shots and put out most of his effort on defense, he'd make up for all the bad things we've said about him. Where he goes off the rails is when he tries to get fancy. I think I could actually like him. As to TRob, I'll tell you what I think after his second year. Right now he seems lost.
