Bit sensitive there, WCS should develop just not as immediate of a presence as you guys had hoped for. Just have noticed he hasn't started that many games to allow him to partner with DMC yet. I was wondering if you'll be looking at a drafting another SG (Hield looks like he might open things up for you guys) but seems like SF and PG may be bigger issues, Rondo may leave and Gay really hasn't been playing up his usually level IMO.


My bad. I thought the insinuation was we kept drafting busts, and that you thought WCS might be one.

We need SG help badly, fortunately it looks like there might be some in that range. Are you still waiting for the Nuggets to pass is on the board? :)


Well, a few wins by your guys wouldn't hurt my feelings. I do have interest in who you draft (again ??) and I can see it probably won't be PF or C, so therefore my question. And honestly, I don't see one bust in the 2015 lottery (and Mudiay ISN'T a scrub, bub) as of yet. I was happy the way it turned out, it seems you guys do as well...win-win. Guess I just need to know if we are going to need to trade up in front of you or not... :wink:

FTR, I am waiting for the Knicks to pass you guys !! Beat the crap outta them on Sunday and we're COOL......


Mudiay is young and has the tools, honestly I was in favor of him during draft time. What positions are you guys looking at? You guys are happier with Harris than we are McLemore I'm assuming.

Don't think SG is on our list, but we definitely could use a shooter (Hield, Murrray or even Ellenson), but I think they're looking hard at Brown ( and pipe-dreaming over Ingram) as a SF. Personally I like Murray, realistically more like Rabb at our 1st. Maybe get lucky and pick up Luwawu with one of our mid 1sts.

Now your turn, who do the Kings take at 6/7 area ? Hield, Murray or maybe Brown at SG ??

Trolling. Mudiay has been more of a scrub. Still wouldn't make that switch.

I've always kind of seen Willie as that backup PF/C. I think because he can defend quicker players that probably his best bet to maximize his playing time.

As for Willie being underwhelming, if that's the insinuation. He's a role player folks. If you are looking for Willie to stick out in any ways other than some lobs, some nice D, and some blocks then you are looking at the wrong player. He's also a bit older than most rookies and was never a super productive player in college. I would still love to see them work on his spot jumper though because that would take his game to the next level. He could be a huge asset for the Kings, but I think that for now is probably in that backup swing big role.
