They're not trading him. They were ecstatic to get him AND he wanted to be in SAC.

Ah, I had heard that he wasn't highly thought of by Kings because of fox. They got him for the value


he isn't even a PG he will probably play alongside fox

the only difference will be the players selected



also the difference is payton, mook, randle took up all our usage and shots and were horrible fits with our young pieces


hopefully the young pieces get true time to develop.

William Wesley connections are out of date, expired or guys who won’t come here at this point in their career. Nobody coming until we remove the mold from this house aka Dolan.

Unless perry has more control than we previously thought


I'm very confused man. If this is the plan then what did we fire Mills for? This looks like they're serving us leftovers for dinner bro.

Outside of Gah who did we miss on really?



bruh

we threw all the eggs into the lebron sweepstakes and weren't even close to signing him.

we cleared out all this capspace in 2018 for the last FA class and everyone that was rumored to come here didn't. we had space for 2 max guys.


you guys need to accept the fact that the only way out is to do a Philly style rebuild or a TOR style rebuild. in either scenario, we need to hit on the draft.


now is the time to take on bad contracts. we should 100% call WAS and do a reverse Paul George/Kawhi trade where we receive 3 first round picks.

Last season, we were testing some young players like Payton, Randle and Portis to build a young core. And trying to mix them with some vets like Morris, Taj, Bullock and Wayne. This season we only want to win.

Last season, we overpaid players for some reason. And spend the money very fast.

This season, we are trying to get borderline stars or players at discount.
