Sacramento Kings off-season thread

[richiemcfly]

any of you guys attending the draft party on thursday?

I believe they will be holding it at two locations. one is firestone in downtown sac and the other one is in el dorado hills

even though it looks like we'll be trading our pick

why wouldn't we both move the pick, and do a separate trade? 

Right? I thought a big part of getting Josh Smith was that he is really good friends with Rondo....

i live right by El Dorado Hills i might be down to go.

And the report about the trades we have lined up for the 8th pick made it sound like we would be getting picks back in the trade as well......  probably in the 12-20 range

yea that's what I read. if that's the case we would let Gay walk or trade him next year?

Hope not. i'd much rather keep Gay than have Smith. And i'd maybe even say i'd rather have Gay than Rondo

Kings have IT2, so I'd agree on the Rondo comment.

 

[nelson999]

 

Not for long though i bet

 

[nelson999]

So much for the Afflalo dream 

 One source said that the Kings' focus, for the moment, is Thursday's draft and perhaps swinging a trade involving the No. 8 overall pick. Sources told ESPN.com's Andy Katz on Tuesday that Sacramento has narrowed its potential draft pick trade partners down to Boston, Phoenix and Philadelphia -- three teams that have multiple first-round picks.

What could we get from PHX??

Dragic?!?!?!?!?!?

 

[nelson999]

Doubt it, they love Dragic. Maybe Bledsoe though.  We know Cousins would be happy with that

 

[rck3sactown]

I would have guessed PHX would make Dragic more expendable than Bledsoe for some reason

Bledsoe would be dope.... but his shooting..... not so much.

 

[nelson999]

Yea from what i have seen it's Bledsoe that's available 

 

[yeeupp]

D. Cousins
Josh Smith
R. Gay
Afflalo
I. Thomas

?

 

[nelson999]

Nah kill the Josh Smith thing

 

[rck3sactown]

apparently the Kings are exploring ways to move up and take Embiid 

tomorrow will be zoppity

 

[richiemcfly]

they should just draft me and sign me to league minimum

I'll have same contribution as landry last year

[richiemcfly]

Afflalo to the Nugguts. so at least one of the kings potential deal is dead

 

[rck3sactown]

Why didn't we just offer the Magic some cash considerations??

 

[richiemcfly]

Why didn't we just offer the Magic some cash considerations??

not sure lol we already pay guys like JT and Landry so giving away money should be minute at this point

what pub are you watching the match at ?

I just have a buddy over watching it.

I have a million errands to run right after this game.... wasn't worth risking going to a bar and getting wasted this early 

If we advance, I will probably be back down in LA though 

 *knock on wood* 

 

[nelson999]

Man Asik and Afflalo were given away for pennies. Where were you Pete?

 

[richiemcfly]

We were probably trying to force JT or Landry into the package

The other GMs were too sober to accept that

 

[lightweight champion]

We still got amnesty or nah?

 

[rck3sactown]

I think JT is the only player we can amnesty right?
