Going to be Thunderdome between GSW/SAS/OKC.


Still got OKC for 2016 champs, Donovan going to have a run better than Kerr.

Pelicans still have the superior team, in my opinion.

Their guard play blows the Kings out of the water.

I don't know about blowing out of the water, but I can't say NO doesn't have the advantage in guard play

Gay makes up for some of that and Kings are now lowkey deep

All I'm sayin is I feel like Cousins has enough now to compete for the playoffs

Its a toss up with houston warriors thunder and spurs

But Spurs being the fourth because duncan parker and ginobli are old as dirt

What happened to danny green and koala leonard in the playoffs tho? Them young dudes stunk up the joint

Duncan diaw mills and belineli was the only dudes who showed up
 
WCS isn't playing 48 mins. And he might even struggle with fouls as he adjusts to NBA refs.

So they need someone out there since DMC doesn't want to play the 5.

And the #1 phrase since FA began is: "When the cap goes up..." It still applies here.

Good signing.

Agree 100%

Also, Rondo has zero excuses not to flourish 
 
If the Kings weren't the kings we would be talking about what a solid offseason they had.

That trade doesn't look so bad now does it??? Gave up stauskas and a 2020 2nd round pick to clear cap space. Can't believe yall really thought dumbass hinkle was doing it
 
Did you not watch that series?

Even had doo be doo saying he wasnt a max player

Son choked the last 4 games

The sas-lac series went 6 games right? And the spurs straight up didn't deserve to win the two games they did. Clippers completely gave those games away
 
7 games it was the series nobody wanted to win :lol:

Pop gave the spurs hella rest during the season and they still seemed out of gas come playoff time

If they get david west that would be huge

Far from the truth regarding Leonard. 
Click to expand...
Leonard was trash in the last 3 games. Combined 13/44 shooting and more TOs than assists .

Very erratic, uneven series from him. A disappointing step back from his stellar performance against Bron the year before.

They desperately needed another top flight offensive option to take the pressure off of everyone & luckily they got it.

If Duncan hasn't declined yet, they should be in position to get him ring #6. David West would be GREAT for them.

I remember he had a poor performance game 6 when they had a chance to close.

Otherwise, I wouldn't say he "stunk up the joint."

To the other dude that replied, so you're going to ignore the other 4 games?  NTers only operate in extremes.

Na man it went 7 and the Clippers held on for dear life at home in game 7 to barely pull it out

Clippers were the superior team no doubt. Would have been a steal had the Spurs won

Eh, I think it was fairly even. Clippers gave away a game you could make the argument but SA gave game 7 away IMO

Clippers had one blowout win and Spurs had one blowout win

Pretty even

LaMarcus has always been sensitive. There were similar articles about him and Brandon Roy.

Roy had clown tendencies too. Straight up threw Andre Miller under the bus.

Then the reports about him not liking Miller because Roy wanted to handle the ball all the time like Bron Kobe & Wade completely oblivious to the fact that he wasn't as good as any of those guys.
Click to expand...

didn't Roy also voiced his opinion about not being able to play with Bayless which led to him getting traded?

Only thing holding back the kings is george karl. They need to put thatguy on a short leash
Click to expand...
from here till the 1st round, fans should kinda trust GK.... its just off the floor stuff and apparently off season stuff, should Kings fans worry about...

He's always done a good job getting the most out of a team during the regular season, now is the time for him to live up to that reputation

playoff failure and ridicule can come later

 Makes sense to add a rotational/semi startable big tbh.

Maybe not the overpay tho.

I am convinced if it was any other team that signed him for the same contract nobody would bat an eye
Click to expand...
When you put it like that, it makes sense.

That's a pretty good contract for Koufos no matter what. Good backup center/serviceable starter, who has played under Karl. Valuable trade chip, if need be too.

Edit:

So all in all, the Kings gave that package to the Sixers for Belinelli and Koufos huh?
Click to expand...
damn, now that you put it that way, I don't really like it nearly as much

but like Karl's playoff failures, I think Kings fans will take what they can get and I don't blame them

did I ignore them, or did I acknowledge them when I said he had an "UNEVEN, ERRATIC SERIES"

NTers don't read.
 
Yea you guys are right. I remember going into the series thinking the clippers had no chance and they shut me up, until they choked. If it wasn't for hack a shaq they wouldn't even have been close. They looked washed, got a ton of open looks and just couldn't knock em down. If that doesn't show that they're tired I don't know what does
