Kings Salary Dump

The Kings gave away three players AND a protected 1st round pick AND the rights to swap picks with the Sixers in two future drafts.

All for the chance - the CHANCE - to maybe land Wes Matthews and Monta Ellis in free agency. Both of whom have since turned down offers from the Kings in order to play elsewhere for less money.

They also drafted a guy that plays the same position as the only good player on their team.

You tell me that's not some of the worst front office work you've ever heard of and I'm calling you a filthy liar, full stop.

The Kings are a dumpster fire inside of a volcano being swallowed by a supernova.
 
Matthews goes with Mavs; rejects huge Sac offer.

Sac should use new cap space and trade for Joe Johnson or DWill.

Sac is worst run franchise ever... Surprised Kevin Johnson hasn't stepped in.

WCS and Cousins definitely play different positions and occupy completely different areas of the court.

WCS was a great draft pick, though the argument could be made they could have traded down and still have gotten him.

They both play center, but I guess you can move Cousins to the 4 if you don't care about floor spacing and if you want Cousins to be a less effective interior scorer.

Cousins plays a lot of his game out on the perimeter. His offensive game is more reminiscent of a traditional PF than a C. Cousins is going to score just fine. Teams can run traditional centers and still score on post-ups with their PF, especially when their PF is as skilled as Cousins.

Defensively it's a near perfect compliment.
 
Cousins playing a lot of his game out on the perimeter doesn't negate the fact that his strength lies primarily as an interior scorer. I'm sure Cousins can still score on post-ups as a 4 with a center clogging the paint, but it's almost certainly going to be less efficiently. If WCS lives up to his hype as a world-beater defensively, then that'd probably offset that issue, but given the pathetic state of their backcourt and wings, I thought taking Mudlay or Winslow and developing them would've been a better option.

In any case, my opinion of their draft pick was just supplementary information for my first post. What I really wanted to get across is that they've handled free agency about as poorly as possible.

I agree 100%

Unbelievable.

More poorly than possible, TBPFHWY.
 
The irony of this whole thing is that Philly gets ridiculed for what they're doing almost as much as the Kings. I'm going to keep predicting that Philly will get the last laugh when all is said and done. Hinkie has a plan and that plan just paid off with his abuse of an NBA owner that doesn't understand the damage he is doing by not leaving team business to the professionals.
 
Vlade finally did something right.: signed Rondo. Signing him wasn't the right move, but signing him to only 1-year was.

Gotta agree with Cy here. There will be some offensive issues, but IMO the most important part of building a team now is having that strong defensive play at the 4/5 as a foundation to build on. Biggest reason why I was convinced the Lakers would pass on Okafor for Russell.
