Looked better last night

Vivek is a plant. The team should be in SEA. So they’d better win at some point. Seems like a ripe anti trust case, frankly.

Tell us everything else that keeps you awake at night. Please.

Wonderful, thanks so much!

1. Sarah Chalke is by far the better Becky Conner.
2. The films of Christopher Nolan have been wildly, disastrously overrated.
3. Red vines clearly superior to Twizzlers.
4. Godfather is obviously a Christmas Movie.
5. Sacramento is effectively operating as a NBA BOG-controlled market/team at this point.

Careful on number 3.

My goodness, the revisionism. And to blame a departed GM at a time like this. The writing is on the wall. My apologies. Kings in the process of going from blowing out to getting blown out here in this slopfest.

Are you implying that Vlade was a good GM? I honestly don't know what point you're trying to make here. Putting the hands of the franchise in Vlade and Peja was absolutely a colossal mistake and one Vivek should be criticized for but Vlade is the one responsible for putting the roster together the way it has been. You can say Vivek had a say in trading for Buddy because of his crush on him but what other moves are you saying Vivek had a hand in? Can you name any?

And although Vivek should 100% be criticized for putting Vlade in charge as I said, he went with a consulting firm this time around and made what seems so far to be a good hire with Monte Mcnair and allowed him to build a front office the way he wanted to.

And what game are you watching where we are getting blown out?

Why are we feeding trolls here lol

[OGSactownballer]

Or allowing them.

This has left amusing behind fellas.

I appreciate the issue, and don't intend to disrupt at all. I'm hoping they come back better tonight, though I have concerns. I predict the Warriors win by a lot, in fact. But like the Guy buzzer beater, I would be thrilled to be proven wrong and would immediately admit it. I want good things for SAC after all it went through, truly. But it looks like a conservatorship and some sort of weird league-orchestrated thing here when SEA will always be ready to invest and build with minimal headache compared to smaller markets like this one.

So, while it is likely due its own thread, and I suspect that would be unwelcome in this forum while my post about SAC potentially being a good bubble location is far less challenging to invested parties: This is simply a league perception that will need to be corrected by winning soon. It's not a happy thing at all to find Vivek on this list for the worst three owners, no matter how one might choose to minimize the source when they don't like the news. He's down there with Sarver and Dolan. Having said that, I don't like the Lacob/Guber team at all, who make the top. And frankly, Vivek is way more a part of that whole Bay Area scene than a SAC guy, anyway. So sure, a little skepticism about this "poll" is cool by me as well. But it doesn't change the perception that many indeed share, like it or not, no matter who one points the finger at now that they're gone. I'm ready to see the change though, just as I am confident that ditching Doc Rivers was the right and timely call for the Clippers and agree with pointing fingers his way for last season, after watching his failures in the playoffs.

Sports!
