Yeah, I just think people are having fun with it because he basically just disappeared and a lot of people didn't even know that he was still in the league.

scottyboy · 12-01-2012, 07:52 PM

the stackhouse thing is awesome. honestly, i didn't think he'd dress when we signed him. thought he'd be a reserve and player coach. Yet, he's one of our main guys off the bench.

it's giving MarShon no time though which kinda blows.

The Nets clearly have no idea how to guard Lebron in the post. Then again I'm not sure anyone does.

When he wants to be, Lebron is pretty much unguardable at this point.

**** YOU BATUM **** YOU ALONZO GEE. My head just exploded.

Brodeur · 12-01-2012, 10:14 PM

Holy ****, the Kings start a lot of chuckers.

yo123 · 12-01-2012, 10:27 PM

The way that roster was put together makes no sense. It's like a team that's designed to play in a pickup game.

It amazes me the guy who put this team together is the same guy who put together the teams from the early 00s. It just does not compute.

The same team that misused both Gerald Wallace and Hedo Turkoglu, two incredibly talented guys with all over the board skills?

You should be cheering any chance to suck right now. This is your last chance to add a top notch talent alongside Kyrie.

You mean the incredibly raw and undeveloped Gerald Wallace on a full team with title hopes? That Gerald Wallace?

Geoff Petrie, ladies and gentlemen!

Dude hasn't made a good roster move since he traded White Chocolate for Mike Bibby. He was gifted Tyreke Evans and and Demarcus Cousins (thank you very much, David Kahn), and has brought in different piles of chicken **** hoping to make chicken salad. I had hope with Thornton/Evans/Cousins, but Reke regressed some and Thornton turned into an all out chucker. I'm so ready for this team to get nuked. I hope they all have solid careers elsewhere.

Oh, and it also doesn't help any that we have a head coach that doesn't know what the **** he's doing. Instead of letting certain guys take the bulk of the PT in hopes of developing some chemistry or continuity, he regularly runs a 10 man rotation. Shoot me now.

Yes, that is who I mean.

The Suns are really terrible.

Rob S · 12-02-2012, 11:39 AM

Sheed ejected. Classic.

I'm fine with a tank - it was just one of the better efforts of the year. With how they played their asses off it was just unfortunate to see it get away.

And he doesn't even become a RFA until 2015 how is this their last chance?

RaiderNation · 12-02-2012, 12:05 PM

I wouldn't mind seeing the Kings try to move Evans/Thornton for a SF hopefully around the trade deadline. I'm tried of seems bums like Salmons or Johnson since they rarely get a match up that goes in their favor. We has a lot of solid young pieces, now is the time to add a veteran(s) to help gel the team together.

We'll give you Tayshaun for your first rounder.

Because if you get a pick in the 4-10 range, you run the risk of becoming a decent basketball team, but not a good one.

Our bench outside of Zeller is bad enough to keep us from winning too many games this year. And Kyrie isn't advanced enough yet to carry this team to mediocrity. It's all good, we will be bottom 3.

Evans has lost a lot of value because his contract is up already, and Thornton has become a chucker with a bad contract. Every asset we've had has spoiled on us, only one with good market value right now is Cousins and i highly doubt they'd ever consider trading him. And it's hilarious that we're crippled at the SF position because of the awful contracts we have on the team. Btw, thank you Geoff Petrie, for bailing Milwaukee out of the horrendous contract John Salmons has.

I still think we can find a viable SF somewhere in the market to bail out on Evans/Thornton, we won't be competitive until we get a solid starting 5 top to bottom. The best thing that could happen to us is if we somehow land Shabazz Muhammad from UCLA in the draft to give us a real star on the wing.

fenikz · 12-02-2012, 04:54 PM

up to the 8th pick
