This thread was inspired by the Bobby Brown thread. Brown reminds me of a player that everyone loves in Sacramento but is soon cut, traded, or lost to FA. I would like to see what players you guys liked but did not stay on the Kings for one of the reasons listed.

For example: Cuttino Mobley, Dahntay Jones, Keon Clark, etc.

Yeah, I liked Cuttino "Cat" Mobley. Even though, he was like a chucker (While shooting good percentages iirc) I liked his game overall.

Dahntay Jones was a good player to watch. I remember the dunk over Blathe of the Wizards that was nasty. And the crazy block against Bass of the Mavs. He was a solid defensive player. And had crazy hops.

Another player I liked was both Maurice Evans/Matt Barnes. They were both young and scrappy at the time. Hustled their *** off every possession.

I loved watching Micheal the Animal Smith. Also Brain Grant back in the day was a lot of fun to watch too.

Barnes should have never left Sacramento. After all, he is now the best player left in the Chris Webber trade :lol:

Yeah, I didn't get the Barnes throw in. I liked that initial "youth movement" featuring Mo Evans and Matt Barnes.

Barnes and Evans with Martin was an amazing group that would have been really nice for this team. Maybe even keep Dahntay Jones and you would have a nice core of wing players (including Cisco). They hustled, played D, brought excitement, etc.

I used to see Dahntay Jones every week at the MGM Grand in Vegas during the offseason, dude is cool as **** lol

Gerald wallace has to headline this list. When we protected lawrence funderburke and not wallace, I nearly crapped myself. That has to be one of the hugest regrets from petrie. Dahntay jones was nice as well, he is crushing on denver right now.

Like someone has mentioned before, I thought Justin Williams had a lot of potential. He was an athletic freak who if nothing else would have brought a lot of energy. I know he had an issue off the court and the trade made sac cut 2 players (Jones, Williams) but I thought that losing Bibby along with those 2 players for the players we got back was terrible.
