Sacramento Kings off-season thread

I want to see more of Cuz/Jimmer

Yo RcK did you post the arena renderings in the NBA thread?

Ya that last game was seriously the first time I think I've ever seen Cousins and Jimmer on the floor together, they looked good running the pick and roll.

Naw I did not post the renderings in the NBA thread

With a few more pieces this team is in the playoffs next year.

 

[thedeek]

I agree. We're looking good for the next few years.

what else do we need?? Upgrade at the starting PF? Back up PG? One more solid big in the rotation?

 

[thedeek]

I'd say an upgrade at pf.

 

[niketalker23]

Upgrade at the 1, and 4

We have a good backup PG, we need a starter. And a Defensive PF, and a legit SG if McLemore doesn't develop huge over the offseason

Upgrade the 1 and have IT come off the bench

 

[nelson999]

Yep. same thing with JT

 

[thedeek]

Holy crap that fall by Thornton.

SDSU with a 3 FTW

Realtalk, I understand why yall dislike Thomas so much; but realistically, who could yall see the Kings trying to trade for without  blowing the cap (assuming you guys agree that no one in the draft will be an upgrade over IT in his first year). 

Like, I'm just looking at the list of all the PGs in the league and I can't see anybody the Kings could really aim to acquire.

PGs I believe to be better than IT, in no real order.

CP3

Curry

Wall

Lawson

Irving 

Lowry

Lillard

Parker

Conley 

And then PGs I believe to be relatively in the same class as IT

Teague

Walker

Holiday

Dragic

Bledsoe

MCW

So with the players I've just listed, who would you guys want to see the Kings go after via trade?

 

[richiemcfly]

Dragic

but it won't happen

 

[rck3sactown]

Dragic

but it won't happen

Thats exactly what I mean 

Sure, I'd love to upgrade everywhere. But how can we realistically upgrade from Isaiah Thomas?

 

[richiemcfly]

lightning can strike twice. it happened when we gave up white chocolate for bibby

 

[nelson999]

And then PGs I believe to be relatively in the same class as IT

Teague

Walker

Holiday

Dragic

Bledsoe

MCW

I don't agree with this. I'd put all of those guys as better than IT. maybe not MCW right now, but just on his defensive ability alone i would take him over IT for sure

 at Amir Johnson fouling DeRozan

Thats fine you don't agree, but I made that list to discuss who the Kings should acquire and how the Kings could go about acquiring that talent; not nitpick the list 

Those teams happen to need the listed point guards, with the exception of Bledsoe/Dragic.

Ain't no way in hell Philly is giving up MCW either  

 

[thedeek]

I am not missing John salmons at all.

 

[rck3sactown]

Rudy Gay 

 

[thedeek]

Typical fourth quarter kings though
