    Kings extend QO to Willie Cauley-Stein

    I hope the best for WCS, but as far as all the former Kings, my focus is with the current players. However, with WCS, I must comment that I think that he is going to need a psycologist, not a Green yelling at him to get him focused on what his abilities really are. I wish him the best, except...

    Project the final roster

    Mason was released by the Kings yesterday. Ferrell will probably end up as the third PG. I think that they'll take a long look at Mika in summer league to see whether they like him better than Swanigan. I havn't seen Swanigan or Mika play yet, but based on comments here, I, too, suspect that...

    Predict who will be the Kings starting Center next year!

    My first choice would be Valanciunas with Dedmon being my second. I would love Vuc, but I think that he will cost too much and even though he is a great offensive player, we need a tough rebounder, rim blocker, and someone who can move outside to clear room for Fox, Hield, etc. Hope Vlade can...

    Is Willie Cauley-Stein still an option at center for Sacramento Kings?

    New scenery might not even help WCS to become the better player he thinks he is. Most coaches in the NBA don't have a degree in Psychology which I think is needed to get WCS to accept reality of the type of player he could become (not a Davis, but a defensive stud with rebounds and blocked...

    How would you spend the Kings $35 million cap space this summer?

    Out of our three picks tonight, the only "player" we picked up was Kyle Guy. He could end up our backup point guard and perhaps let us involve Mason and possibly Ferrell in trades. I was dissapointed that Vlade didn't use some of our 2nd round picks to move up into the bottom of the 1st or the...

    What will Kings org. be doing very soon?

    What will the Kings Organization be doing very soon? With the head coach in a law suit and no assistant coaches hired, I don't see the Kings just sitting around doing nothing until the law suit is over. It might be hard for Walton/Kings to hire any assistant coaches with the uncertainty that...

    J. Randle

    I firmly believe that we really need to sign a legit, rim guarding, pick setting center who can legitimately play against the big centers of Utah, Denver, Portland, etc. Like bajaden said: both Bagley and Giles are really PF's, at least for the next few years. I also don't think that Randle...

    Next head coach candidates

    These three wouldn't even be on my list for a new coach: Stan Van Gundy, Tom Thibodeau, and Mark Jackson. All have had problems relating to their players. I would maybe like to see either Turner, maybe Monte Williams, or an up and coming assistant coach who is currently coaching under a "good"...

    [Game] Kings @ Thunder - Saturday, Feb. 23 - 5PT/8ET

    I didn't get a chance to see last night's game, but in looking at the box score, Fox, Bogdanovic, Hield, and Bagley scored 73% of the points!! A great group to build around. Then add in Barnes (in another month of getting use to his role), Giles (next year or two), Bjelica and maybe WCS, and...

    Following 2019 draftees!!!

    Tonight, Cam Johnson and Waye(sp) just destroyed Duke. I really like him for our highest 2nd round pick.

    Is Cauley-Stein a Good Defender?

    The real question is "Who would OUR GM (Vlade) take"?

    SF Trades

    IMHO I feel that we need a big center, rim defender, shooter in the paint, spread the floor, passer, and all around tough guy to shore up our interior defense and yet still score. I would like to see us take a run at Nikola Vucevic or Mason Plumlee this summer. Even though they are both 28...

    SF Trades

    Batum is too old and MKG can't shoot well enough. So...No

    SF Trades

    In last night's games, neither Porter Jr for Washington nor Bogie or Shump for the Kings suited up. Is this an indication of a trade? It works in ESPN's Trade Machine. I would hate to lose Bogie or Shump, but it does seem like a fair trade.

    Future of Willie Cauley-Stein?

    Rosey Grier, one of the greats on the L.A. Rams "Fearsome Foursome" had an unusual hobby for men of needlepoint, knitting and macrame and it never interfered with his game. Hobbies can be very beneficial to athletics (and even non-athletics) in their down time away from the game. But like was...

    GAME THREAD: California Classic Day 3: Sacramento Kings v. Miami Heat, July 5th, 2PM PST

    In my interim (many family interuptions) watching the last two games, Mason was late every time he threw a lob which most of the time got intercepted for a turnover. He also most often when driving for the basket would just lower his head and not see wide open 2 pr 3 point shooters and then get...

    GAME THREAD 7/2/18 California Classic Day 1: Sacramento Kings v. Los Angeles Lakers 8PM PST, 11PM EST

    Harry Giles has some nasty in him. Several times he overpowered the Lakers Wagner and flung him to the floor (no harm, no foul I guess). Giles is stronger than I thought he would be. Also to parrot lots of others here, Fox has been hitting the weight room max, as he's a lot stronger in his...

    Who should be the Kings Starting Small Forward?

    Since the Lakers now have LeBron as their SF, what do you think it would take to get Brandon Ingram in a trade and what do you think about him as a player?

    Carmichael Dave on why staying young is good for the Kings

    Think of it as Harry Giles is our 2019 pick. Go Kings !!!
