Well Matt Barnes wants to beat us by 50, so I guess he's still on board with helping us tank.

Barnes wants to kill us. Good. I hope Barnes shoots it 25 times

He was given tattoos by a blind person also

Speaking of Rudy from the draft thread...

Crazy cool sight: Rudy Gay on floor in Oakland getting up shots just two months and a week after suffering ruptured Achilles.

Gonna be...it's halftime. Great game so far. Fox and Ball both playing well.

Hey, this Buddy Hield dude is starting to show some franchise potential. They put the ball in his hands to run the offense and he looked really good. He seems to be fighting through those early turnover issues. Skal and Buddy, not too shabby.

Missed the game. How'd we do?

He killed us more than enough when he was on the team............

The more I watch Hield/Skal the more I think we really need a terrific PG (e.g Bledose/Holiday) to make them reach there potential both are elite FINISHERS when it comes to scoring but both are currently super sloppy with the ball in hand with slow/questionable decision making (yes I know they are young but still ).

I thought WCS did a lot of good things again but his rebounding along with the whole team has to get better to many times the guards/forwards did not come in for long rebounds.

There is a lot to work with at least with our young guys and adding a couple quality vets should help next season.

Unless we do we are looking at a 15-20 win season

I think you need a PG that isn't looking to score. You saw how Lawson handled the rock in the 1st quarter when he turned it into the Ty Lawson show and many of the other guys, especially Buddy, never saw the ball until the 2nd half when Super Lawson disappeared. Hield showed some things in this game that might indicate he can be a primary/secondary ball handler/facilitator in the offense. His hero is Kobe and he looks to be attempting to make strides in a similar direction. I never factored him in as someone that can get you 4-5 apg but he was out to prove that he can last night. For as sloppy as he was when he first came over this game was an eye opener in that area of his game.

Joerger wants to play motion offense, so having a PG that is OK with playing off the ball will be key moving forward. Scoring G's like Bledsoe or Holiday could work I think. They are both dangerous off the all as well. Having a ball dominant pick and roll guard won't work however. When they've run pick and roll the wing scoring seems to evaporate. Willie might be a big part of the Kings passing game as well. He's got very good court vision and he's shown passing skills all the way back to his days at Kentucky. The Kings offense has been plugged right along since the trade, the defense needs to catch up though.
