More surprising 0-3 start, Pacers or Kings?

[Rico2016]

And will either make the playoffs?

Pacers been in a few close games, they are missing their closer. Oladipo before he got hurt was killing it in the clutch. So not surprised there. Gotta be Kings. They are supposed to contend for the playoffs this year.

Both took the long trip to India in the preseason, coincidence?

Kings aren't supposed to contend for a playoff spot, I wish. There are 9 teams in the West that will be better so I would guess that Kings will finish 10th unfortunately.

Oladipo out
Tyreke Evans banned for 2 years

That's what happens when you don't play Bogdanovich enough.

Kings has the most confusing roster in the league.

I don't know what their FO is trying to achieve the way they structure it.

I always got this wtf moment whenever I see X player suddenly playing for them :oldlol:

Last night I saw Ariza and it's like wtf? why would they need him? they're like loaded of forwards already.

Lol that's how I felt about the Orlando Magic a few years ago.

The bigger question is why they got rid of what they had last year. One of the worst run franchises for sure

Considering that 2 of the 3 Pacers losses have been to the Pistons, without Blake Griffin, how is this even a question?

I can't imagine a more brutal start to a season for any team.

Never surprised by the Kings losing, they haven't made the Playoffs in 13 years.

Ariza is one of two SF on the roster. The other is Harrison Barnes. Ariza has been pretty terrible though. Actually hit some shots last night so hopefully he do something this year.

The Kings' hiring of Luke Walton was when I wrote them off for the season. He is simply not a professional coach who has his team prepared for each game. That is a killer when your core is so young. Gotta give them confidence from the top to succeed. Joerger, for his flaws, did that. Excellent coach as far as game-planning and preparation goes, always has been.

The Pacers letting Bogdanovic and Thad Young go was when I went sideways on them.

It's only 3 games so neither is really surprising, but Pacers I guess.
