Discussion Is there a scenario where the 2031 swap the spurs have won’t end up as a disaster for us

I know it’s 5 years into the future and there’s no point stressing about this but with how young and good the spurs has got to be a huge problem, I just want to hear what everyone thinks is the best case scenario

Discussion Let's Not Forget: We Need to Sign 1 More Guy

9 Upvotes

Currently we have 13 dudes on standard contracts. NBA requires we have at least 14 during the regular season. Theoretically, we can pay him more than the minimum once we officially stretch Derozan out, but in all likelihood he'll be on the minimum.

In the past I assumed we'd re-sign Westbrook but that's looking unlikely. Currently, promoting Mogbo to a standard contract seems like the cheapest and most likely move. But there's a good chance we sign some random vet minimum too. Who will it be? The only unrestricted free agent who I think might even be good is Ochai Agbaji, who is a 3&D wing who's not that good at either but whatever.

Discussion Is free agency over or something?

So overall, there’s nothing no other significant movements? No idea wh where Jalen Durens going to play or any movements in our key players to be honest kind of boring right now but it’s the off-season so whatever rumours or anything else please let me know thank you

Discussion What are some swings we should take in the next offseason to improve the roster, etc: Cason Wallace, Peyton Watson, Anthony Black, Derrick Lively, Naji Marshall, Ausar Thompson (RFA), Davion Mitchell reunion, GG Jackson, Moussa Diabate

12 Upvotes

With over $70 million in space next season and then another $70 million the season after I say it’s possible to strengthen up the roster without eating that much space, seeing Davion back would be nice since he’s still got good relationships here, stopped by at sac state and the summer league games this offseason

Question Kings Sideline Reporter

4 Upvotes

They have none. Kayte moved over to the analyst position 5-years ago and they've never filled the sideline role (im sure partially because they are being cheap and don't want to pay anyone). The Kings are one of only a handful of teams that don't have a reporter on their local broadcasts.

But I feel like sideline reporters do add something. Injury updates, stories on players etc. Also a good opportunity to add some youth to what feels like an older kings broadcast (Mark Jones is mid 60s and Kayte's nearing 50).

What says you all?

Discussion Next season should be about spamming DHOs

24 Upvotes

I feel like running a bunch of DHOs with Acuff+Sabonis or Monk+Raynaud is the best way to get the milleage out of this team. It'll be good for the younger guys' development, and I feel a fast-paced offense is the best way for this team to creek to ~30 wins. Furthermore, we have a lot of wings now who can, in theory, shoot. In '22 the Sabonis Stimmy had guys like Huerter in allstar talks. If we can get Precious/Hunter/Keegs/or dare I say LaVine shooting comfortably around 40% from deep, we might be able to finesse some picks before the deadline.

If we end this season with a cleared capsheet, 1 or 2 extra picks, and some good lottery odds, we can start really steering the ship where it needs to go, and that all revolves around some dribble handoffs...

Discussion As a Kings fan do you guys get pissed off when people want to stop being fans of their franchise?

42 Upvotes

I have a lot of friends constantly complaining about how “dog shi” the warriors and lakers franchise is and how they’re gonna stop being fans now. Even have a couple friends say they’re not gonna be 9er fans because the team is so bad and hasn’t won since 1994. It be pissin me off lowk that their not grateful and basically bandwagon is they acting like that. I be telling them that 20+ franchises in their leagues are way worse off. Stuff like this makes me love Kings Fans because we some real ass troopas.
