Bill Simmons and his 'friend' do a podcast every year where they pick over or under the amount of wins a basketball team will get that year. This season vegas put the over/under at 30. Simmons picked under 30, and his buddy picked over, but they both hate the team.
I could nitpick at the little things they got wrong in this video, but the main point they made is one a lot of us have been saying for a while - This is, and has been, a poorly constructed basketball team. A lot of the pieces don't fit. What they didn't mention is that this year, with increased options and depth, the roster CAN work if Smart plays is smart.
It's not hard to see. If you start Evans / Johnson / Thompson / Cousins along with one of the point guards, that is a balanced, working lineup.
I don't take Simmons very seriously, although I like listening and reading his work, but I think this video is a fairly clear representation of how everyone OUTSIDE of the 'KingsFans' circle view the team.
Anyway, I'm also going to add a poll so we can guess the over/under of this years team.
