    Patrick Patterson is actually a pretty good PF. He's a starting quality PF.

    I don't think T-Rob is gonna be a star in this league. Maybe a JJ Hickson type of player.

    Houston slightly won this trade. But its not rapage by the Rockets.

    I wish JJ Hickson would have done for the Kings what he is doing for Portland this year. He has had some real nice games and is a starter there. For Sacramento he was garbage. But who hasn't been the last 7 years.

    I think Morey's main goal was to get rid of the jumpshooting forwards, particularly Morris, and probably get rid of Aldrich. I think he wanted better trade chips too, he might do something else with the acquisitions

    I would be willing to put money on the fact Lin made them trade douglas away, because he is a better player than him haha. and Douglas getting minutes exposes Lin.

    This is one of the dumbest things I've read on here.

    And considering "here" is ISH, that's really saying something.

    I feel for you Kings fans. Sincerely. Yeah the Pacers don't spend tens of millions on the lux tax and it's basically a hard cap for us, but a lot of the fanbase doesn't realize how blessed we are that the Simon Bros bought the team. Being a fan of a small market team is one thing, but when the owners of that team are scumbags, man, I'm sorry.

    Lmao do you actually watch Kings games or are you that dumb? IT is one of the worst passing/IQ PG's in the L and is the worst starting PG in the NBA. IT is dumber than anyone in the starting 5. Dude can't even run a pick n roll to save his life or assist anyone for a easy bucket. I love IT but to act like he has decent BB IQ is beyond idiotic.

    Sorry, it just pains me to think of how much better Houston would be without Lin, having replaced him with a decent PG.

    Lin is playing great but I still think Houston shouldn't have signed him.

    Imagine a Harden-Dragic back court.

    As a kings fans this trade makes 0 sense

    The problem with the team is we have a bunch of pieces with no collaboration and we gave away a 22 year old lotto pick for more pieces

    Patrik pat is a nice player but is not the answer to our needs

    Toney douglas is useless -- another shoot first undersize guard (thorton , fridette, brooks, thomas )

    We dont become better at all and we give away a player with a ton of upside

    Just ac

    It was about dumping Garcia to clear money for a sale. That's it. The Magoofs don't give a shit about anything about that. Seriously man, I feel for you. Hope they get a local owner and stay in Sacto.

    The Hanson group (Seattle) approved the deal as well

    Of course they did. It clears a contract they had no say in. I like Thomas Robinson, but people are overreacting to the quality of player he is and can be. I'm not even sure he'll be a starter on 50+ win type team.

    But it's not about that, it's the principle. They just dumped a 5th pick rookie like 65% through his first year just to clear (basically) dead money. None of these players are anything special, but this move goes down on draft night and it's just a straight up Pat Pat and scrubs for the 5th pick people'd be going apeshit. This is a complete clear money move just to ease a sale. That's ****ing awful man.

    I agree, T-Rob is going to be a solid player I don't see him being a superstar but its what the Kings got in return which is a complete joke.I think the Kings mistake was actually drafting T-Rob when we had more use for Drummond/Lillard/Barnes. Its just one horrible move after another.
