    Jordi Fernandez: New Brooklyn Nets coach

    It says he’s their choice doesn’t mean other teams aren’t gonna get in a bidding war. Blazers and Charlotte potentially will have longer leashes and more ability to shape.

    Jordi Fernandez: New Brooklyn Nets coach

    As long as he stays with us through our entire championship run like Mike Brown did with the dubs.

    KING IN ARABIC

    Maybe Grayson changes the market but before that was announced I think everyone would consider 4/78 the best case for the Kings. A lot of us anticipating there would be an option in year 3 so that he could get more on a full Bird deal.

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    Even accounting for the possibility that the worst case is true and the relationship between Sasha and Brown is irreparably damaged - something I am not ready to concede - he's here and under contract and I am sure there are teams that would love him in a trade package.

    Keon Ellis

    I'm not sure why y'all thought I was suggesting going after Mikal, the point was unless there is some amazing two-way wing that is being gifted to us our focus should be on upgrading Barnes's spot.

    The Countdown Has Officially Begun...

    Well yeah, if we win it all, SLAB gets full credit.

    did I miss something obvious beyond the game? Blazers twitter was very quiet in my timeline.

    I agree. At minimum this team will get the equivalent of a game 7 at home and possibly a game 7 on the road. Those win to advance or lose and go home games are genuine experience that the core of the team need and the reason you hope to make the playoffs even when you are below .500 and have an...

    We won 46 games, finished 10 over .500 for only the 7th time in 40 seasons in Sacramento history. If we miss the playoffs we will join a group of 5 other teams (2 more possible this season, for historical context) who won more than 45 games and missed the playoffs. To call it a total failure is...

    2020 due to Covid and 2013 are the most recent years where there was no real excitement about the top 5 picks. 2020 we got Hali and 2013 was Giannis's class.

    Where Boban misses a free throw on purpose so Staples fans can have free chicken.

    Play-in games discussion

    I'm starting to accept the pick but it would be kind of funny if we could make the playoffs and have a lotto pick. Who are the teams with multiple firsts this year? If we somehow won the lottery if ever there was a year to trade a high pick for multiple middle picks or maybe even 2 this year...

    torn on that because if we convey the pick we can start trading future firsts, but it's possible there is a keeper at 13 or 14 and we'll send ATL a 20 something next year. Either way I think we can start doing that the next year because if we don't convey in 26 it turns into 2nd rounders and...

    The most worrying thing is potentially losing Monk for nothing otherwise even the pick to ATL is a speed bump. I'd be willing to take a swing at Barnes's long term replacement in the draft after previewing the list of athletic guys 6'9 and over projected as primarily PF mocked 10 and below. So...

    For whatever reason I just don't block/mute folks. For example I have muted two people on KF.com in 15+ years here, one was shown the door a while back and one I unblocked last week after accepting the mod gig.
