The Kings are being outscored by 12.3 points per 100 possessions when Domantas Sabonis, Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan share the court: 105.8 OffRtg (29th) 118.1 DefRtg (24th) -12.3 NetRtg (29th) This trio continues to be a disastrous fit since trading De’Aaron Fox for LaVine.

This is legitimately a really cool quote. It’s just funny in the context of a 1-4 basketball team that hasn’t made the 2nd round of the playoffs since 2004.

NBA fears

By the way one major piece ive learned this off season in all my endless exploration of data and age curves.. Age 30 is the modern pro basketball prime. not 26/27 or any of that. 26 is the start. 31 is end or 25.5/31.5

Just please god don’t panic trade or panic anything. Let it burn. You gotta let it burn.

No rim protector No rim runner No stretch big(sorry max in time) Not enough wings To many ISO players Only PF we have we got off waivers Team is old an un athletic Blame Doug if you want, Keon will help us but he's not the savior

I’ve seen enough: The Sacramento Kings are entering the first phase of an official rebuild. The franchise is for the first time going to follow the OKC/SA/DET/POR blueprint. A minimum 2 year project is here.

Painful but necessary. Will be 100x more fun to watch young talent develop and have growing pains then watch a doomed team on the treadmill of mediocrity.

We have never, not once, had a full and complete rebuild. THAT is the delusion. If you’re happy with spinning our wheels and being satisfied with play in and first round exits, by all means. OKC, SA, DET, and even Portland have all provided a blueprint. The definition of

All these other fan bases spent the last 3 years telling Kings fans that Sabonis was trash and now they’re making fake trades for him #nooticing

Mike Brown!

Worst 4-man combos in the league. Minimum of 100 minutes played.

This from Sam Amick Christian Clark Joe Vardon in and of itself to me is a fireable offense for Nico. Amazingly selfish.

Mock Trade: Los Angelas Clippers Receive: - DeMar DeRozan Sacramento Kings Receive - Bogdon Bogdonavic (exp / team option 26/27) - Bradley Beal (Out for 25/26 & $6m owed in 26/27) - 2031 Pick Swap* LAC Receive Less of SAC/SAS/LAC SAC Receive Best of LAC/Less SAC/SAS

Oh no, who possibly could’ve seen this coming?

This is embarrassing af Not Kings fans

There’s a reason he will generate a very strong trade market

To be clear here, there is no pushback from Kings owner Vivek Ranadive regarding their current plan. The point, which was said in a big-picture sense, is that Scott is making it clear - from the top on down - that they need to be very patient and prudent here.
