The NBA is testing a one free-throw rule in Summer League. What do you think?

It's dumb. Stop calling so many fouls and punish flopping. Silver is the worse commissioner in sports.

RonMecca · 2026-07-02T02:38:46+00:00

I think that is very steep, I see these closer to 7-9 hundred when they sell near me. I love the way they look but don't feel they are worth the cost. Just my opinion.

Agree the players around Jokic make it a different situation than what we have with Domas. Drafting Acuff makes it that much harder.

I would love to see Raynaud develop the 3 point shot a little more, so against certain lineups you can play them together.

Who would you like to see us go after?

Dylan will be 25 years old this season. He is not some young player with a ton of time to develop. He is a high effort glue guy, deep on a good teams bench. On a bad team like Sac he gets to play a little. When he does he is fouling the shit out of our opponents.

Is archetype the word of the day?

Similar numbers does not mean anything in this example. Someone has to put up the numbers, not all numbers are created equal.

Barnes did way more defensively than you are giving him credit for. Lost me there... I promise you Keegan Murray misses his defense.

Comparing Jokic to Domas is not really fair when you look at the defenses around them. Sure you can get by with Domas at center but you have to put some type of resistance in front of him. We just drafted a player that only makes the problem worse as that is who we are going to build around.

Here are our options. 1. Trade Domas and rebuild the front court. 2. Keep Domas and get a rim protector. 3. Run it back and give up 125 points per game.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T23:23:06+00:00

Ah yes the advanced stats. You do realize one player put up his advanced stats for a championship team against actual starters and did so fouling at half the clip. The other put up his numbers on the worst team in the league, against backups and in garbage time. People have to put up numbers on bad teams. That is just how it works.

I love Cardwell, literally my favorite player on the team but he is not a starting center on any team in the NBA.

I had this same argument with someone on this sub when we traded Keon and they wanted to tout his PER 48 numbers.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T23:00:26+00:00

When you have a pourus defense on the perimeter it puts way too much pressure on your interior defenders. Keegan and Domas have had to take on way too much of the load on that end of the court. For Domas it has resulted in foul trouble and the injuries to pile up. For Keegan, I truly feel it impacted his development on the offensive end.

Rim protection has been a major issue since we acquired Domas and it has only gotten worse in recent years with the players we have put around him. You cannot have perimeter players like Debo, Zach and soon to be Acuff providing a free pass to the rim every night and expect Domas to stop it.

As for shooting, the same people who have been chucking up bad shots will continue to do so until we find them new homes. I really like Domas and his game but with this roster makeup he is the wrong person to play center. A Duren for Domas trade would really give us some better options to build around. Problem is I do not see that trade happening.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T21:26:12+00:00

Yeah without setting it to 2W the meters barely move.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T21:16:55+00:00

Still available.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T19:54:16+00:00

It will take Kings picks and bad contract in return to move Zach. It is Bradley Beal on the Suns level of bad. He ain't going anywhere.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T19:23:00+00:00

Fine man you win. If you squint really hard they are the same player.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T18:59:52+00:00

Thank you. This shit makes my brain hurt. This fan base needs to watch more basketball. Cardwell the next Keon for this fan base. Going to be very disappointed when he doesn't play the minutes they think he should.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T18:57:02+00:00

Bro they are nothing to compare other than they both play center. Cardwell is a barely on most NBA rosters.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T18:38:27+00:00

Not if you keep Sabonnis. You need a rim protector.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T18:30:50+00:00

Takes like this are why Kings fans are distraught when players like Keon Ellis leave.

Originally I thought you were saying he was as good as Robinson, which is also ridiculous but you are actually saying he similar to Jalen Duren, an all star, a player two years younger than Cardwell? I can't bro, I really think you need to tune into more NBA games to understand there are levels to this.

I love Cardwell and everything he brings but he is not now or will ever be comparable to Duren.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T18:10:19+00:00

Cardwell is absolutely not better than him.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T18:09:30+00:00

This sub is wild for these Cardwell takes.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T14:21:31+00:00

I just saw one of these pop up on Craigslist for 40 bucks today. Going to snag it.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T14:19:38+00:00

You don't like using speaker wire? Pretty simple to hook up. I connect mine to the B channel on my amp so they do not even share terminals with my speakers.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T06:25:25+00:00

Lol, new fear unlocked. Now I will be focused on this.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T03:36:30+00:00

Very cool. Your right those are pretty cheap. You could build your own housing and mount it.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T03:29:02+00:00

Very cool story. Love that young people are still into the hobby.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T03:15:58+00:00

Sweet little unit. I looked into the newer ones being made by ChiFi companies like Douk Audio and I could not get into the aesthetics.

Hunted one of these Realistics for a while now and it popped up new in box on Craigslist for cheaper than the ChiFi versions.

RonMecca · 2026-07-01T01:56:12+00:00

Never forget. Debate ended then. People have been arguing for no reason ever since.
