Hes got like what 4 assists? He's a better passer than I thought. Court vision is off the charts

He's not a bench guy. Start him or move him

Metu looks ok offensively, but his weak side D was looking as bad as his shooting usually does. He's still a long way from starting material IMO

Think I'm going to add Reid to my most annoying opponent list.

He's 25 and only makes like 2 million next year. He's fine unless we get someone substantially better. Type of guy we've always should of had around vs the Randolph's.

I like how Mark Jones called this a "speed dating" game for the Kings.

Sabonis can't touch the ball when he's out of bounds. Refs missed that one

LOL Sabonis inbound, not as bad as Len's yesterday though.

Len was shellshocked from getting posterized

Is there excitement in the building again?

Sorry Jeff for initially questioning you. I was emotional. This is **** exciting!

If the Kings leadership wants to win-now, they have to keep working the phones hard until the last minute of the deadline. They need to push hard to find another piece around the Fox & Sabonis core. If it means shipping out Barnes, Mitchell, 1st, etc, so be it.

After one half of so-so basketball I think it's enough to see that the Kings might just have two stars in Fox and Sabonis now. Time to go for it.

I agree.

Even if this season doesn't amount to a play-in, these games will be important in trial running the "win-now" core into the next season. Give them as much games under their belt before heading into the offseason. :dontknow:
