Everyone and all the reporters were shitting on us for that Philly dump

Except look where we are now

We've won Free Agency so far

Got rid of Landry and his bad contract, A perennial mediocre PF who missed way too many easy shots, and a shooter who couldn't shoot

We gained a champion shooter in Belinelli, a champion playmaking PG, and the best backup center in the league.

We are not done yet either.

1+ For Vlade

1+ For Sacramento

Playoffs.

Collison is a better player for sure
and he can shoot. Rajon starting with DMC and Gay is a disaster

Keep laughing.

DMC is Garnett

Belinelli is Ray Allen

Rudy is Paul Pierce

Rondo ready to bring it all together

WCS + Koufos + Demarcus + Moreland = Best shotblocking rotation in the league

Kings will be a top 10 defensive unit next season.

So many people underrating Rondo here

Dallas didn't utilize him right

Took the steam out of his jets

Op definitely trolling...or just went full retard. :lol

The Kings didn't "win" the offseason by settling on leftovers after their top choices rejected them over and over.

Overpaying for role players isn't winning shit. Just like the Kings.

Op just an insecure homer.

Just need to sign a backup guard/SF and then we're set

Probs re-sign Casspi

Might get lucky with Lou Williams

Maybe Dorrell Wright or Gerald Green

I know. Gotta rebuild the team. I'm ok with it. Overdue actually.

I just find it funny how much you hype your team and troll the shit out of the board and have no idea how much people laugh at the Kings and how stupid your owner is. The Kings are still going nowhere.

Maybe they will win 30 games finally.

You are visibly denying the talent of Demarcus Cousins, Rudy Gay, and Rondo

Not to mention we have the best backup C in the league AND the best backup PG now..... Best shotblocking big rotation, and a HOF coach

Denver has a PF who is really a no-defense poor mans WCS, and a rookie PG who stunk it up in China. George Karl made those scrubs look WAY better than they actually were. Fun fact - Faried and Gallo are not that good.

You say this every year. Just another ish homer. - dime a dozen. Only difference is you never shut up. And that's why I enjoy when your team loses - you feel bad and then disappear from the board. Happened last year. :oldlol: and it'll happen again.

I already said Denver won't be good. If you want to start a thread on that, go ahead and I'll gladly participate

But this is about the Kings. And your insecurities. And you not realizing they will miss the playoffs. Again.

And now you have no cap space. And no picks. And no plan.

Cousins already counting down the days.

Green is on my wish list for sure. Still need a backup PF, though, or however they're gonna rotate the bigs. Brandon Bass is next on my wish list.

Cousins
Bass
Gay
McLemore
Rondo
-------
WCS
Koufos
Moreland
Casspi
GGreen
Beli
McCallum Jr
DCollison

I'll be honest - if that team BUYS IN to Karl's system and coaching, they could threaten for a playoff spot fo sho.

Kings are getting there. I love Koufos and Beli signings. Rondo I think is just a signing for the sake of signing. They're a couple more Koufos/Beli-like signings (i.e. Bass and Gerald Green!) away from actually being good.

In a vacuum, adding Marco & Koufos, both at roughly or slightly above-market prices is a good FA, especially with the cap jumping up going forward. Really dislike the Rondo signing on this specific team and thought he even got paid too much based on performance. Why not sign Corey Joseph for half as much annually to be the backup to Collison? Rondo was worse than Collison last year. RR may behave and overperform, but that just means SAC is more likely to lose their first rounder to Chicago (top 10 protected through 2017) next year and then they have to let Rondo leave or overpay him (most likely) next summer.

However, when you consider that recent trade and what they ended up with- this has been a bad summer. People view SAC as one of the worst run organizations in sports. Marco is a great, reliable shooter off the bench but they could have signed him without clearing all that space. It's fine if they had commitments from guys and then clear space, but don't do that prior to getting commitments.

I like Koufos as a player and he's better than J. Thompson & C. Landry, but they just drafted WCS to play lots of C. I know he's hurt, but is that a reason to sign Koufos when JT was cheaper, had mostly non-guaranteed deal for 2016-2017, and is a capable backup big? I think his fit doesn't make sense after drafting WCS. I don't love playing WCS/Koufos or DMC/Koufos at same time for extended periods every game, which I'd expect to happen.

What a win...you have a bunch of crazy players that are aging around a 24 year old center....with the upside of this team likely being a round 1 playoff exit.

They drafted a player that doesn't make a ton of sense...then just added another center in free agency...gave away a ton for cap space....

They are the biggest joke franchise in the league, by far, currently.

The won alright...too bad they are playing a completely different game.

Actually WCS was a huge need for the Kings. Yeah it's a redundant position since Cousins is at C, but he's said he's willing to play PF before. But Kings needed a rim protector BAAAAAD. Cousins is only good at taking charges and maybe swatting a shot here or there.

The signing of Koufos makes me think the intention is to move Cousins (or WCS) to PF...
