    Improving the roster (Moved from the Kings/Thunder [Game] thread)

    And just to add to that I ultimately see HB as the odd man out. But that man has earned some loyalty from the club, even if it ultimately means he is shipped to a club he'd be happy at. Lyles and Sasha both have opportunity to contribute in different but meaningful ways. Right now I am still...

    Greg Lukenbill talks to Sacramento Historical Society

    My mom is in town and invited me to her apartment tonight to watch via Zoom. Some interesting tidbits. * He claims that part of his pitch to Stern was selling naming rights to what would become Arco Arena. He had a chart of all the arenas and what they were named and said the Lakers were next...

    KINGS BEAM IS UNDER ATTACK | HERO BALL

    This has to have been posted elsewhere but I didn't see it and it's worthy of its own thread.

    [2023] Gone But Not Forgotten

    Saddened to kick this one off this year with the passing of Mr. Jeff Beck. One of rock guitar's early icons who actually managed to age quite gracefully, continuing to record, perform and inspire into his 70s. Ok, maybe last year's Johnny Depp album wasn't inspirational, but still... RIP...

    DiVincenzo and his camp unhappy

    I don't know where to put this but Ham is saying DDV is mad for not starting and doesn't want to be here. Thanks Gentry.

    Question for long time STH

    The reason I'm asking isn't exactly basketball related but I'm genuinely curious: At any point of the Golden Years did the Kings threaten to withhold your opportunity to purchase playoff tickets if you hadn't renewed for the next season?

    Sacramento real estate market... ?!? ;)

    Also some rent luxury homes or even condos where the hoops they may have access to are not private and therefore off-access. Unless a player plans to be Sacramento for life they'd be foolish to invest in a permanent multi-million dollar home in the Sacramento area. First, or at least direct...

    Post National Media Coverage Here

    Yesterday we made the top 5 teams to watch this week (noting we don't suck). Today they post an article proclaiming we aren't light years behind. https://www.theringer.com/nba/2018/10/30/18043760/sacramento-kings-hot-start-deaaron-fox-willie-cauley-stein So strange to see us getting fair...

    The Ringer: Golden Ones: Sacramento’s Royal Makeover Might Be Worth Tuning Into

    https://www.theringer.com/nba/2018/6/27/17509198/kings-future-marvin-bagley-deaaron-fox Nice piece warts and all that basically summarizes what we already know. But it's still nice not to just be dumped on, and I think we're the first lottery team besides maybe Phoenix and the Mavs to get this...

    Which vets should the Kings keep around? Which ones will they keep?

    This is great and I hope this isn't a threadjack, but if the team improves by ~10 games into the 35-40 win bracket next season, I think I would like to keep Temple and Koufos around for a few more years. Z-Bo I expect to see packaged mid-season for a draft pick.

    Discussion about women's sports (split from the Olympics thread)

    I'm not happy that the US Women (soccer) were eliminated from medal contention but they did need to be smacked down to earth, so I'm grateful for that. And hopefully Hope Solo can go crawl under a rock. I was really excited the following game when Australia almost bumped off Brazil but couldn't...

    MLS to Sac?

    http://www.sacbee.com/2011/12/14/4121137/group-exploring-major-league-soccer.html I was really excited to see this in my MLS newsfeed this morning until I saw that they want to put the team in Elk Grove. Seriously? WTF? Apparently they've learned nothing from the Kings fiasco and they...

    Are people here watching this? I just started a few nights back, now have watched all 9 episodes leading up to tomorrow's finale. At first I was drawn to some of the more shallow elements of the first episode but wow, the twists and turns have been amazing. This is one where I am glad that I...

    Thought for those of us in other NBA cities

    I've been thinking about things that those of us who are dedicated to seeing the Kings stay in Sacramento but aren't currently residents can do. For those of us living in other NBA cities one thing we can do is write our local ownership groups begging them to vote against this deal as one that...
