I’ve seen some discussion on this forum, and several others, regarding the West not being as good as in the past and the East somehow being better. My contention has been this all along. The East/West records against each other this season and the West being so tight is the result of massive...

Look, I get it. The KINGS haven’t been relevant for umpteen years and aren’t a darling NBA franchise. But based upon this season ONLY and the current success of the KINGS as the #2 seed in the Western Conference — how can any NBA analyst not have De’Aaron Fox among the top 5 candidates for MVP...

Philly’s been an enigma for years now. Simmons is having an off year. I’ve been seeing more trade rumblings than ever before. As a KINGS fan, would you be interested in Simmons? And if so, could the KINGS realistically offer a package that Philly would consider that doesn’t include Swipa or...

Just wanted to spotlight HB’s play so far this season. HB catches a lot of flak around these parts because he’s not a super star, but he is still a damn good all-around player. This season his production is up almost across the board. His shooting numbers are phenomenal. Over 53% overall and...

The first 38 games: https://www.espn.com/nba/team/schedule/_/name/sac/seasontype/2

Good of him to say. And perhaps he might. But if either of us had a nickel for all the players that thought the same thing but never did........ As a Niner fan, let me ask you and all the others here something. I saw this Shannon and Skip segment yesterday and while I don't believe the Niners...

**UPDATED 02/23/20** Hey everyone, my wife and I are collecting the player cheer cards they hand out at Authentic Friday home games, and sometimes at non-Friday games. They've been handing them out at the door going back to at least the 2014-2015 season (that we know of). Typically the cards...

is 6-4 currently. And an admitted poor call away from potentially being 7-3. **NOTE** The record is excluding themselves, of course, and including OKC. So it's the top 8 outside of SAC. And they haven't faced the Clippers yet. If you overlook the 0-5 start, they're 6-1 against the top 8. A far...

I just looked at the schedule. I don't know where I see a W on the horizon, the way this team is playing. Take a look at the schedule below yourself then tell me where you see the 1st win of the season coming. It could get uglier. Utah Jazz @ New York Knicks @ Toronto Raptors @ Atlanta Hawks...

We have a thread for GM1 so here’s GM2! I just arrived in time for the 2nd half of the preliminary game. Got better seats than I thought! Who else from KF is here?

I didn't see a thread about it yet, so here we go!

Sorry if I'm stepping on @VF21 or @Tetsujin toes in creating a game thread for tonight, but it's less than an hour away from game time and no thread yet! I think we're all too busy discussing trades. Let's get geared up for tonight and beating the beard! What do you guys think our chances are...

This will upset many of you, but it's being reported as 'official'.

I'm not one to jump the gun after only a handful of games, but I'm going to do exactly that in this case and be the first to admit that it looks as if I was wrong about him. Zach is looking exactly like the alpha scorer the Kings needed. And he's doing it fairly efficiently. While he always...

Gotta love ESPN and their power rankings: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/24165876/nba-power-rankings-how-lebron-james-kawhi-leonard-change-everything I get that the Kings aren't close to a top tier team as of today. But I just find it humorous that teams that finished equal or worse than...

With the news today that OKC has exceeded 300M in salary and considering that the ability to build super teams has spiraled totally out of control, I think it's time for the NBA to move to a hard salary cap just like the NFL. It's far too easy to circumvent the cap to compensate players and...

In the scenario where PHX selects Luka Dončić and the Kings then select DeAndre Ayton, what do you think of the possibility of making a trade to pry Cleveland's #8 away from them? Would Cleveland be willing to trade #8? Perhaps not --- especially if LeBron leaves as many expect. However if...

Hopefully the mods will allow this thread to stay in the Kings Rap forum as it does relate to the Kings and their current predicament rather than relegate it to the NBA forum. Anyway, with all the talk going on about this topic, I thought it might be cool to have a dedicated thread where we can...

Nope. But it sure increases your odds. If you look at the history of the draft, far more elite players are found at the top of the draft than anywhere else. Nothing is ever guaranteed. It's all about maximizing your odds and making the best decisions you can.
