I hate the Kings for what they have done to what was once one of the most fun franchises in the NBA.
Not even close. Kings sucked with Haliburton and the Pacers suck with him now. Sabonis is nothing special and he’s definitely weak defensively but Haliburton stinks on defense too and no matter what direction the Kings took they would have still sucked like the Pacers do now. That trade was a wash.
But if we are talking worst trades this one might be the worst we’ve seen
This man turned a title contender into one of the worst teams in the league.
He’s getting paid 47 million dollars. 47 million dollars!!!!!
Kyle Kuzma >>>>> Westbrick
He’s averaging 10 ppg shooting 29% from FG and 8% from 3
Indiana's roster sucks.
You really want to die on the Hali Ain't It hill don't you. Very sad!
Considering I was the only one hyping him up at the draft and was the first person to even bring him up in the draft discussion I’d say nope
But you choosing to ignore how awful your boy Westbrick is while he’s out here destroying franchises and tarnishing Lebrons legacy is funny

He's probably not a franchise player I agree but he still projects as an excellent NBA player overall. Indiana is devoid of talent besides him, Mathurin - a rookie - and Myles Turner - a support player.
Sabonis is a talented player but he puts a ceiling on your team hence they built a treadmill. Keeping Haliburton and trading Fox was more conducive to a consistent, high-ceiling rebuild. Indiana's undergoing it instead of them.
My man Westbrook is destroying the Lakers from within as retribution for the 1972 Finals it's all going according to plan. Don't worry we got this.

I agree though that Westbrook is the escapegoat for greater Lakers roster issues. But he ain't helpin'.

It's definitely both.
Ham put him back in the game with a few minutes left and the Blazers didn't bother guarding him.
He should never close on a team that aspires to win games. It's pretty sad for a former MVP, but hey the interviews are still gold and he can still occasionally give you a highlight play.
But the one issue the Lakers can't fix is that AD is not the man. With LeBron ageing, it's a problem they won't overcome. They should blow it up now.

The lakers are probably going to make a panic trade soon trying to get a shooter and we need to see if there’s any opportunity there

So how does that not apply to Haliburton? Did he help improve the Kings? Has he helped improve Indiana? Sabonis took the Pacers to the playoffs despite them not having much talent either. He’s not a scrub so that’s what I’m saying it was a wash. Kings weren’t good with Haliburton and their backcourt was getting lit up when he was there. Fox is better without him, he had a great year before him and he’s having a great year without him now too. And Haliburton is going to be due for an extension real soon so he will be in that same boat real soon.

No way, get their picks before they realize they need to blow it up!

He (AD) really hasn't looked strong to start the season. Methinks his brittleness has taken a toll on his psyche. He used to be more aggressive.

He ain't helping but have you seen their bench? Just looking at the box score, I'm pretty sure Meg Ryan plays for them now and gets minutes.

they have like 6 actual nba players but i don't think not helping is harsh enough. he's actively hurting. not that they're world beaters but they would be better simply if he didn't play. they probably win yesterday if they didn't put him back into the game. they were up 8.
