    Affording the depth we have already

    I see a lot of folks anticipating that we might be buyers in FA over the coming seasons, but I think it’s going to cost a lot of the cap just retaining talent. Fox Buddy Bogdan Barnes Bagley Will likely need new contracts/raises before the contract of an impending max type. Not even counting...

    Tiny backcourt

    Throughout the preseason I called for a Fox/Yogi look. As big of a Buddy fan as I am, and someone who has called for him to start, maybe he is more comfortable off the bench. If that’s true maybe we will see more “tiny backcourt” Last night we got a look, but with Mason instead of Yogi. This...

    Kings no one in SI Top 100 for 2019

    I used to enjoy reading where Cousins might end up, and be mad at how underrated Gay was.. the old days.. I think we are the only team not represented at all.. Had to check. Even the Hawks had Bazemore. I’m not sure if the authors were trolling us, as I can’t see how Hield/Bogdan couldn’t get...

    Ranking the teams core in your opinion

    In terms of pieces you believe are the most important going forward for the franchise. I’ve noticed some differing opinions on this. There have been past threads about this, but it might be interesting to see where folks stand going into the 2019 season. Mine would probably be: 1. Fox 2. Hield...

    Does half the fanbase have concerns of Bagley at the 2 pick?

    Let’s try this again in a little more balanced manner to get the true nature of fan opinion. Coming into this offseason, as we jumped to number 2, I thought it was critical for the Kings to get a home run to help be the face of the franchise and lead this team over the next 5-10 years. It was...

    Taking players who haven’t worked out

    We are still trying to re-establish our reputation after the last few years, so we still might not be bringing in for work outs whoever we like. Not speaking of my own opinion, but Jackson and Bamba are two highly touted prospects that have not come by. If Vlade’s big board happens to be (not my...

    George Hill

    I’m personally very disappointed with his play. He was the vet signing I really looked forward to because he had a been a difference maker over the last stretch, and was known for his character. I thought he was going to immediately step in and average 15+ as a solid option, as paid and...

    Surprise playoff run this year

    cue Jim Mora.. Is there anyone here that thinks the Kings can make a surprise run at the 8th spot this season? There is a lot of depth in the West, and not a lot of non competitive teams with the exception of maybe Lakers and Phoenix. By the same token, I think some playoff teams from last...

    The direction of the Carter/Randolph signings

    The Kings IMHO did some quality, good things this summer. The draft was solid. Fox looks solid at 5, same with Jackson and hopefully Giles can get back to being a dominant paint presence. Hill is an underrated player still in his prime who many felt had as much to do with Utah's turnaround last...

    Kings waive Tolliver (merged)

    Will the team pick up his second year? He's a good guy, but the cap space could help..

    Which PG should Kings keep for next year? (revisited)

    Any different ideas on this? Towards the end of the season Ty showed some things as a starter. I guess it depends on price for me. Who can be signed for the cheapest as a fill in for the pick

    Pick situation (split)

    The "good stuff" will be seen two years from now If this team retains its top ten pick this year, the pelicans hand over a decent pick, Hield, and the team is able to bottom out next year, there can be a foundation that would have never been here if Cousins wasn't moved. Handing over 200+ to...

    Ty Lawson Starting

    is he a better long term option than Collison in your books, and would it help the team more this year for him to get an extended starting look? There are arguments against it like Lawson's WCS connection and his shooting around Cousins, but I think having his energy on the floor for 30+ might...

    Ben McLemore

    Is Ben still salvageable at all?

    Goal of this season - 8 seed or development

    If the Kings continue to lose this Rockets game they will be 3.5 out (before the end of the Nuggets/Lakers). And the team has obligations to Chicago to relinquish their pick if it's out of the top ten. They also have an easier/home heavy schedule coming up. If you were management would you...

    Done playing games with Cousins... (split from game thread)

    I'm done playing games with Cousins. The team wouldn't be in the state it's in with a legit top ten piece

    Patience level for WCS? (merged)

    What is the patience level for WCS? Do people favor him getting time? I was for him out of the rotation to start the season.. he made mention of not getting time on twitter

    Napear and Cousins

    This question is mainly for us pro-Cousinites out there, but do you view Napear's opinion on his radio show as potentially harmful to Cousins feeling comfortable in re signing here two years from now? I think a lot underestimate the power of media, and viewpoints coming from him, the leading...

    WCS

    Questions? How concerned are you personally? Is it motor or mental? Would you entertain trading him before his value potentially goes lower?

    Can Kings coach Dave Joerger break DeMarcus Cousins' bad habits?

    http://www.sportingnews.com/nba/news/demarcus-cousins-dave-joerger-kings-offense-breakdown-trade/14ker8r7sx0tf1ovzqs1ztgtqr I think this article really gets to the heart of Cousins being underutilized under Karl "This is where Joerger comes in. Last season, Gasol and Randolph were among the...
