[mister916]

Reke's shot has improved, Jimmer looks like he will do fine in NBA and DeMarcus has lost some weight.

Reke just signed to play overseas. What great timing for the lockout to end.

 

[Deleted member 38182]

HERE WE BUILD! HERE WE BUILD! HERE WE BUILD!!

What off season moves do u al think we need to do?
I think overall our team as it is should stay put an let the young guys develop and grow as the season goes on.


Maybe look to add a few big man vets to help babysit DMC, dumping Salmons and/or Garcia needs to be a priority. Give Donte the season I find out if he can be a contributor to this team or not otherwise we need to find a new swing man not named Salmons/Garcia

 

[sooperhooper]

I saw Cousins play tonight at my high schools alumni game. Dude is massive in person.

 

[japanair21]

I love basketball, and I hate the Kings.

I hope that yall can really bust your $!@+% and get the young kids in shape to win. I would love to renew the Mavericks/Kings rivalry of the early 2000s.

I love yalls roster too. I love Salmons, Honeycutt, Reke, Cousins, and The Jimmer.

Will keep a close eye on yall through the entire 66-game season.

 

[bballkingsrule]

Hope Kings resign Dalembert. Great solid player with Cousins.

 

[mister916]

Garcia needs to go. I wanna see what Salmons can do. He has improved since his first stint here and I'm curious to see how he'll do with this team.

Resigning Dalembert would be nice but the price has to be reasonable. He'll probably end up signing with a contender like the Heat.

JA, <3

 

[memphisboi55]

Now that i'm only 30 mins from Sac, I will be attending some of these Kings games.
Waiting to see when Grizzlies are on that schedule!

 

[mronegative]

I forgot about you guys...bittersweet?

 

[lightweight champion]

We ended last year on a great note. Hopefully things will continue to look bright for us.



HERE WE BUILD!

 

[notaclevaname]

i'm hoping to see hassan whiteside develop 

 

 

[blakmn89]

im ready 2 watch boogie-jj hickson duo. jw who will replace slammin sammy?

 

[650sgabe]

Excited to see how the new faces on the squad will do. Jimmer, Salmons, Hickson...I have a good feeling about this year

Oh and resign Dalembert, get rid of Garcia!

I can roll with this.

I remember at the beginning of last season I was CONVINCED that last year would be the year Donte blew up, but I was wrong.... well this year I am once again SOLD that Donte will show up and be a factor hopefully to the point where we won't need to depend on Salmons

 

[memphisboi55]

jj hickson plays for kings now?

 

[verdykt]

Gonna check this thread a lot more. I got high hopes for my dude Jimmer. My cousin is getting married in Sacramento so, hopefully I can catch a game while were out there.

Yup, swapped him for Casspi. Wished they would've taken Garcia instead.

 

[mister916]

Amnesty clause in? Goodbye, Cisco.

 

[nicedudewithnicedreams]

Kings fans are back!

The Maloofs still own the Kings...
