I think he will start next to Cousins. Maybe it is a good thing to bring in WCS slowly.

But yeah, this is a very good deal considering the market right now. Right about what I expected him to sign.

This is a great deal . King swill start him at Center & allow Cousins to play the PF position as he as always wanted to play at

Gay at SF
? at SG as I am not 100% sure Mac will be t he starter now
Rhondo at the PG ]

We are starting to finally get a real team together with a much better bench & with some outside shooting threats .

Matthews turning us down was a huge lifesaver for us. Look what we got instead of throwing him a max deal.

Dear God i could CRY right now

Good signing.

Nice value for a good defensive big. Looks like Matthews signing with Mavs was a blessing in disguise.

Kings will actually have a bench now and no more Thompson starting. Crazy world.

Probably can't afford Bass now, right?

Great signing! I've been a fan of his since his Ohio State days.

Heck yea! WCS, Bellineli, Rondo, and now Koufos. That's a hell of an offseason, and addresses a lot of needs.

Please, just PLEASE, I hope everybody gets along. We have everything else we need to be good, and I hope they all see that.

It's exciting. Vlade is looking pretty good this summer, silencing all the doubters. (I was one of them frankly, though I love Vlade as a person and as an x-King.) Not only has he signed some good players, but he has also shown leadership in regards to the Cousins-Karl situation.

Even the general board is starting to turn around with their comments about the Kings!

I wonder if Vlade's name has sway with the European players. If Vlade can bring over some prospects, (drafted via Sixers) the Kings could be at the vanguard of the new Euro wave like they were during the early 00's golden era with Peja, Vlade and Hedo.

I'm fully expecting a Woj article tomorrow about how Vlade must hate 'Murica because he was puttin' in work on the 4th.

"Multiple league sources say Vlade is working to bring USA to its knees and 4th of July signing is further proof America cannot trust him"

Great signing, good offseason. Everything else is a plus

To go from where we were under Corbin to now in such little time is pretty damn nice. New coach. Revamped roster. No more useless players eating up space.

Excited to see these guys in action.

I think Cousins is more likely to play PF than WCS. I think he has said he prefers playing PF.

I like both this and the marco signing. It seems like WCS is going to be strictly a PF; which i'm not too sure about.

I don't want to jinx anything for you guys but Vlade is doing a fantastic job.

Well, that's that. Lets see what this team can do. Back in the days of Brad and KT I never thought the day would come that the Kings were too stacked with shotblocking!
