Sacramento Kings will be in the second round next in the western conference

 

[lightweight champion]

 

[mister916]

Trade it

 

[mister916]

Wow

 

[rck3sactown]

Meh.

I have 8 guys I'm interested in, I don't care what we do with the pick.

**** this lottery.

 

[Fozz]

Wow. I really had the Kings with at least a Top 5 pick. This lottery is ridiculous.

Just filed to http://t.co/X75SPTIUSC: Kings put No. 8 on the trade block, wanting veteran instead of next rookie to develop. Link to come.

That's not how it works. You either move into the top 3 or you move backwards. (Or you stay put if nobody behind you moves up)

 

[nelson999]

idk if i like trading the pick. 

Embiid/Parker/Wiggins/Exum/Randle/McDermott/Vonleh/Gordon/Smart

There's 9 guys right there i would rather draft than trade the pick. 2 of them will be available. Hopefully Gordon or Vonleh...

 

[lightweight champion]

Trading the pick means IT is back.

 

[rck3sactown]

Trading the pick means IT is back.

What makes you say that?

 

[richiemcfly]

rigged

 

[beats05]

Of course in a draft where I only like 7 guys, we pull the 8th pick. If these guys are gone at 8, then I want us to trade the pick:

Embiid
Parker
Wiggins
Exum
Randle
Vonleh
Smart

Hopefully at least Vonleh or Smart drops to us.

 

[nelson999]

You don't like Aaron Gordon?

 

[rck3sactown]

I would be good with:

Embiid

Wiggins

Parker

Exum

Randle

Vonleh

Smart

Gordon

It would be ok with:

Saric

McDermott

Ennis

LaVine

 

[tsamshox]

Smart= Poor Man's Tyreke

Would rather take a chance with Vonleh/Gordon/Levine. Now that I think about it Gordon would be a good fit if he can play the 4.

I just realized the 2 no-votes are from the 2 districts I lived in in Sac
