So can the Kings still put salary together for Collins? The Spurs pick for Collins is fair value imo
I'm guessing not

I think this is actually a mistake on their part and I absolutely love it. Go all in on the season, please for the love of god.
No, they got Keon Ellis and Devin Carter
Too bad the Kings have DeRozan and not a better big forward. Id love their team if you swapped DeRozan for Collins
That pick was going to convey in the lottery. It was a good get for them from where they’ve been for the last year and a half when no one was offering any kind of future-facing stuff at all.
I think that was maybe a pride thing on the Kings/Vivek part. Embarrassing to come crawling back for something you handed out like candy.
Spurs probably argue they got LaVine, who is either on the same level as Fox or just below, so why should they get a ton of premium. I'm more embarrassed for the Bulls not getting anything else and taking on the bad salary
At this point I think they need to go after Sexton more.
Why? They have a ton of shot creation. Still need minutes for Ellis/Carter

As it stands today they have the would likely have the 9th pick and are obviously trying to get worse to get better odds. I get that might be a little too close for comfort though.
Isn’t Ellis playing at the 2? Carter is a fine prospect but he is not ready to helm.
Well, also, if the pick doesn’t convey this year, it kicks back two more years at top-8 protected. Almost a perfect protection schema cuz they for sure were gonna cough up a pick just outside that range in the next three years.
My theory leading up to this is that SA or Atlanta were gonna jump into the lottery and push the pick to exactly 11 cuz the Spurs are the luckiest mother****ers out there. SA not tanking and jettisoning the Chicago pick is a big deal.
Think they just run it through Sabonis/Monk/DeRozan in that order and coach up Carter. Sexton would get lost in the sauce on that team, not a good fit imo
Need another dopamine hit by noon tomorrow

Kings should really trade DeRozan right now.
Some three team deal where they move DeRozan and get back John Collins and stuff makes sense.

San Antonio is just 4.5 games back of MIN. Any chance they catch them?
I think Dallas can catch MIN now, Sac probably has a worse chance now, LAL not sure if they can keep ahead now.
