An assessment at All Star break of the Kings team and it's prospects. We all enjoy reading what a fellow nit wit has to offer.
* Present starters, their readiness tobe a winning team for a season:
Closest to where they need to be -
Gay - closest
Thompson - next closest
Cousins - trailing along with Thomas
Thomas
A SG isn't there yet
If we can get a SG who has Doug Christie characteristics, e.g., good defender, good ball handler, dribbler, passer and average scorer and 78" tall then- the starters we have can get us over .500 for a season after next year and maybe sooner.
If the other four starters can continue to improve their defense as they have been doing and Thomas and Cousins can shore- up their significant shortcomings on offense - cut down on dumb, selfish play- we can do it.
This is just one alternative but one that I think will work
