Supposedly the Kings are in the process of waiving Matt Barnes.

Also, as previously mentioned, working on trading Darren Collison.

I don't understand what the Kings are trying to do and it feels like, they don't understand it either.

Okafor for WCS and McLemore. Now everything is possible

They're just going to waive the best SF left on their roster after the Rudy Gay injury?! This night just keeps getting better and better. I guess they're going full tank for us. :lol:

It's pretty easy to see what the Kings are doing. They are trying to ensure they keep their pick this year so they are getting rid of every good player. They are still idiots because they got bad value for Cousins.

Kevin Smith, FWIW, reports Sac will buyout/waive one or both of Tyreke and Langston Galloway.

The 76ers are 2 games behind POR for 10th in the lottery. Even if SAC goes full tank, their pick is still tied to the 76ers. So they just gifted Cousins to the Pels in order to keep their 1st round pick that could very well end up being the 10th pick in the draft.

This is crazy.. Hinkie the Visionary!! My man had the extra long scope with the silencer, when he made that trade for Stauskas.. Harris and ownership will never be forgiven for firing that man after the impeccable job he has done.. He isn't even in the organization and is STILL making boss moves!!

And a Shaq sized middle finger to everybody who hated on Sam.. After tonight, he goes down as the best GM in Sixers history.

Apparently the Kings will waive Woman Beater Barnes too, in addition to trading Collison. The tank is on.

And we're waiting at the finish line to be handed the trophy.

I'm thinking at how far they can fall

Think they maybe can get to #4 (if the Ibaka trade is a 'addition by substraction' for the Magic), don't forget they won a game against Boston without Cousins.

The collateral damage to the lakers pick makes this night even sweeter.. Suns/Nets/Kings should have the worst records in the NBA by the end of the season. The lakers have a 63% chance of losing the pick if they finish 4th, which is looking like a toss up between Philly/LA/Orlando/Minnesota

The 1 and 4 Doomsday scenario is back baby!! They don't want us to be great!! They don't want us to have Fultz/Ball and Dennis Smith/Josh Jackson!!

SAC is definitely a worse team than LAL atm but I don't see SAC catching LAL. There are just not enough games left.

Sac may win 1-3 games, and Lakers are 5 behind. With only about 25 games left, not easy.

They do play each other again, but really needed Lakers to lose that last game they played.

Also, this is assuming the Lakers don't trade any of their vets, which they're going to.

Vivek and Vlade were so focused on the Chicago swap that they forgot about ours. On lotto night they're gonna get the #1 pick and be like "we did it!!" then "oh **** that's right..."

one of the suns mods said that the suns offered a much better package, len/warren/knight and 2017 unprotected 1st round pick. suns could end up with a top 3 pick this year

To be fair to Vlade, that's a better package unless you horrendously overvalue Buddy Hield
