With the Kings newfound cap space I do this …
1: Draymond. Sell out for Draymond.
2: Short term big deal (JJ Reddick Style) for Brook Lopez.
3: Naz Reid AND Kelly Oubre
4: For the love of god not Kuzma or Grant.

So, Rich Paul apparently said he doesn't want any of his clients playing for Knicks. Because of way they treated you Cam Reddish and in part because of relationship with Rose after LeBron left him for Klutch Sports

Seems like Kuzma would be a better fit with Sabonis. Dray likes having the offense run through him and so does Sabonis. Kuzma can shoot from deep, Dray can't. Kuzma can be useful secondary scoring which was your downfall in Game 7. You guys scored 42 points in the entire 2nd half! 14% from three. And your answer to that is to add a guy who can't shoot and can't score? I'm baffled.

He becomes the 2nd/3rd scoring option on the team with Sabonis not having to score as hard The only other player who really fits would be Kris Middleton but he's going to be too pricey for them nor would I want to make a big investment on him with the injuries Kuz is going to be overpaid but $22-25M AAV isn't the worst figure in the NBA

Huerter shooting like 8% from three and Sabonis forgetting how to basketball aren’t the normals. I’m not reacting to one playoff series. I’m reacting to the team being a bunch of softies for an entire season. Maybe if someone kicked Looney in the nuts he wouldn’t have grabbed 72 offensive rebounds in the third quarter of game seven. No, I’m not actually advocating for Draymond to kick people in the nuts but the Kings desperately need an edge more than they do scoring. And also, I’m looking forward to Keegan taking another step forward. Likely not going to happen with Kuzma around taking twice the amount of shots Harrison did when he was the starting 4.

Sixers essentially went and got three projected second rounders and didn't give up a damn thing for it
Terquavion Smith is shocking, he was a projected 1st rounder last year, went back to school, and it backfired on him, way too much more meat in this draft overshadowed him, and Ricky Council was projected to be drafted too but he didn't, Azuolas too, those are all our two-way deals, looks like they stacked up there
I wonder where and how they still move Tobias because I feel like it's coming, before or after Harden's deal idk but at least they acted fast and signed some promising talent that doesn't have to suffocate under Doc Rivers...

And also, I’m looking forward to Keegan taking another step forward. Likely not going to happen with Kuzma around taking twice the amount of shots Harrison did when he was the starting 4. But part of that issue is that you were relying on someone like Huerter for secondary scoring to begin with. And really you got lucky with Monk going off like he did. Kuzma is a bankable scorer. He isn't great on D, but I think he compliment Murray really well. He's basically an upgraded Barnes. Better scorer, better on the boards, better handle, WAY more turnovers. What's not to love? Hell, you saw Draymond firsthand cost his team a game being an idiot. He can afford to pull that shit on a better team, but not on the Kangs. And again, I don't think him and Sabonis is a good fit. He is a way better defender, which is good because Sabonis can't be that guy. But they both need the ball to be effective.

Remember when Lavar Ball was a thing because he was constantly saying dumb shit with those busted Big Baller Brand shoes?

That shit hurts my soul because Lonzo Ball's current situation was probably exacerbated by the time he spent playing in those dumbass shoes that he didn't even admit until years later were awful to play in.

The timeline for the Blazers roster makes it ridiculous to hold on to Dame at this point. Sharpe and Scoot are guys they can build around but neither player’s timeline matches Dame’s. Just make the trade already and build for the future.
