Posted this on another board and people seem to like it, so thought I would duplicate here. Hopefully I have this in the right spot: Interesting thread at APBR Metrics board. Ranks most improved players according to eWins. JT was #7 in November (if you go back to page 1). Donte is now #4 as we...

I posted this in another thread, which may not have been the best fit. It may not have generated much response due to disagreement, but I felt it was worth it's own thread based on it's merits. Long story short if you hate longer posts. Getting Murphy is not a long term solution, but would...

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=AiKfE_O5b.ETwAaGOveLPpC8vLYF?slug=aw-jeffersongranger011010&prov=yhoo&type=lgns So the Wolves supposedly are not enamored with Big Al and offered him to the Pacers for Granger. Considering that Love and him probably cannot share the starting front court...

Let me start this by saying that I am not someone who thinks we need to trade Kevin Martin. However, if he comes back in January and does not mesh well with the new team, here's a deal I wanted to get some feedback on. I apologize in advance if someone has proposed this same deal in the past...

Any questions? Just cause I haven't started one of these before and it seems trendy tonight :D

Lol, either way it's nice to have everyone excited enough about the team's prospects that we are all cheering for the team to win and not debating tanking again this season. That right there might be the greatest gift Havoc and company have given us so far this year.

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2009/06/clippers-assistant-eyen-may-be-headed-to-sacramento.html It appears likely that longtime Clippers assistant coach Jim Eyen will join Paul Westphal's staff in Sacramento. Westphal was hired earlier this month by the Kings. The...

The Celtics have traded center Patrick O'Bryant to the Sacramento Kings. According to an NBA source, the move was made for salary cap reasons and Boston will not get a player in return. http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/57413/20090219/boston_trades_obryant_to_kings/

Ok, admitedly this is a longshot to actually happen, but seems to make sense so I thought I would post it. The Rockets are having major locker room issues and are reportedly looking to shake things up: Kings trade: Brad Miller John Salmons Beno Udrih Rockets Trade: Tracy McGrady Aaron...

The following passage and link is from ESPN's Truehoop the other day and it struck me as particularly meaningful to our current situation: http://myespn.go.com/blogs/truehoop/0-38-84/Monday-Bullets.html "Optimism is a critical survival tool, but only when it's balanced with realism...

So I know I asked this at the end of December, but what is everyones updated Top 5-10? For me: 1 - Griffin 2 - Rubio 3 - Monroe 4 - Harden 5 - Jennings 6 - Teague 7 - Derozan 8 - Thabeet 9 - Mullens 10 - Hill This will change a lot between now and the end of the tourney in particular, but...

Pure speculation/ However, watching the Hornets again tonight against the Lakers, their lack of another player outside of Paul and West who can create their own shot and another ball handler outside of Paul is very apparent. In a trade that seems to make a ton of sense: Hornets get: John...

Following up on that last post, I'd love to get an idea what everyone here feels is most important in a coach. Suspending past track record since there is little with 90% of the options, my personal opinion is: 1 - Rapport with players/player management 2 - Work ethic 3 - Xs and Os (stress...

Ok, I have tried to be patient and give this a chance, but there are too many things going wrong right now. Let's just review the facts: 1 - Our star player is underperforming and is not playing at a consistently elite level. I know he had some injury issues, but a coach is supposed to help...

There's been a lot of speculation about who the Kings should pick next Wednesday. So I wanted everyone to post their "Draft Board" of who they would like to see the Kings pick. At least a top 5. To keep this from becoming a rediculous topic ("I'd take Aldridge, then Roy...), let's assume the...

With the NBA draft coming up, we've been talking about a lot of the obvious prospects who the Kings easily could take. However, there are a few less likely but potentially good prospects the Kings could either take in the first round or get if they traded for an early second round pick. All...

From RealGM.com Boston Herald - The Pacers reportedly have discussed a trade with Toronto that would send Jermaine O’Neal to the Raptors for a package that would include the No. 1 pick. The Pacers, according to Mark Murphy, would likely take Adam Morrison. Wow, so Jermaine O' Neal for...

Until looking back tonight, I had always assumed the worst draft ever (at least in the last 20-25 years) was the 1989 draft where we were "lucky" enough to have the #1 pick. It was easily the worst top 10 I had ever seen and while some of the later picks were better, it was still very mediocre...

Not that we will be in a position to draft this player, but check out these two eerily similar profiles from NBADraft.net: Player A: NBA Comparison: Larry Bird Strengths: Uncanny basketball smarts. Plays the game with great passion. One of the best shooters in college. Has a chance to...
