Kings not going tank on purpose I'll trust the current regime to get everything right. Moving Bogdan was step one cause Vlade was saying he was willing to commit $15-$18 mill a year for him and the current regime told Bodgan camp no and they are willing to play hard ball On purpose or not, they’re tanking. DeArron isn’t a DeMarcus Cousins level talent where he can by himself carry a team to 6-10 pick purgatory. Hield is likely out. Bagley is a massive question mark, and he’ll just stub his toe and be out 4 months anyway. Barnes is the most invisible 80 million dollar man on the planet. The roster is a garbage fire. Kings got big decisions to make this year If this shit goes to hell and they are a bottom feeding team staring at the number one pick, I expect them to blow it up |

The roster isn’t built to win shit. When your building blocks are a kid who can’t shoot and a kid who cannot physically be healthy you’re in for a world of hurt. I do think pieces of the roster could be very beneficial to teams that are already good though. Bogi should be good for the Bucks not having to try to play star. Barnes probably can’t be traded yet because of his shitty contract, but is very solid as a guy who’s not featured, Hield as a spot shooter without much other weight on his shoulders would be great for someone, Holmes could help anyone as a hustle/banger off the bench. But as cornerstones? Lol, Sup 25 wins. |

But as cornerstones? Lol, Sup 25 wins. Buddy is more moveable. If someone like Philly gets Harden, Kings would be wise to call Philly like we got someone else y'all can take. If you give us a pick or two we will take Horford Barnes is trickier but he puts up a decent half season by trade deadline or full season, he can be moved. Fox has a big season coming up cause it determines whether Kings commit to him or not. I think they will just because they not trying lose him for nothing but if someone offers him the max, they might just pull a sign and trade Bagley has to produce this upcoming season or Kings will not pick up his option. He's riding a thin line. Yes, their have been big men and forwards who took a while to develop but in this NBA, you hardly see players get 4 years to show their worth as a star. Look at Jahlil Okafor and how he has been a (solid) bench player since he left Philly but dude is only 24 and nowhere near the star he was thought to be |

NOTHING is there He's too slow to be a 3 and not strong enough to be a 4. A 3 and D player who can't knock down 3's consistently and who isn't a 3 He can help drive the tank then. Kings are so shitty that if they tried to tank next season they would end up the 8 Seed. |

Rondo is reported to have been offered $15 mill over 2 years from the Hawks
That's not a bad fit and Tray needs a backup PG but if Rondo is holding out for Clips, I see him waiting
Once again being said if Obi Toppin falls, the Knicks they will take him. Only way that happens is if he makes it past the Cavs at 5. With the recent hype Patrick Williams is getting, it is possible
If Patrick Williams goes to Chicago, then Deni or Toppin will fall into the back half of the top 10.

Gordon Hayward and Boston push back his option until tomorrow
Real talk in that Gordon will decline his $34 mill option in hopes of securing a deal that will get him more over the life of a new deal
Interesting. Usually it would be cut and dry but if Gordon accepts, he probably will be traded this offseason. Considering he had a bounce back season, he might bet on himself and try to get a 3-4 year deal that would get him more then the $34 mill he would make this deal and get more guaranteed dollars

Hawks interested in a sign and trade for Gordon Hayward
It was reported that before Jrue Holiday got traded to Mil, Boston was trying to acquire him by sending Hayward and their 3 first round picks

I read they were going to be in on Bogi, so go get his better shooting (worse at everything else) friend. |

Yea, Hawks two main needs are a backup PG and a playmaker Preferrably they'd rather have a backup PG like Rondo who can make plays but the next best thing is getting someone like Hayward and drafting a Guard The best way to hope Hield gets moved is if Harden gets traded to Philly. They will need shooters and as said before if Kings are willing to take on Al contract, they can gain whatever picks left Philly may have after acquiring Harden |

Jrue fit them as well as Milwaukee, only less reliant on his offense with Tatum, Kemba, Brown. That would have been scary, maybe made them as good as any team in the East barring a Nets/Harden deal. |

Patrick Williams is one of those late risers who is quickly becoming very overrated. Why would any team draft that guy 4th overall? Maybe I'm looking at a different guy. And guys like Deni, Hayes, etc are flawed prospects for that point in a draft, but like Williams isn't? Florida St guys, outside of Vassell somewhat, are always big projects on offense. |

His rebounding would have been a game-changer for them, even before you got into his PnR game. |

Wiliams was perfect at number 11 to San Antonio Project player taken in the lottery with the right team to develop. If he goes to Chicago at number 4, the pressure on him will be immense for a team that really won't know how to use him |

But if you want him, trade down to 6/7/8 and make someone else think about making that mistake for a price. |
