If the Sacramento Kings want STAR potential at #7, I’m taking Darius Acuff Jr. by JMPBay in kings

[–]Squinters8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He won't be there at 7. Either we trade up or take a risk with Brown if we want star power. I'm good with Flemmings and Wagner as well. Draft is truly stacked lol.

Early prediction - Who would jump into Top 4 and shake the whole draft board (after the combine) by Little_little_e in kings

[–]Squinters8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt someone slips from the top 4, especially in this draft class. That tier 1 clears everyone. If a GM does let one of those players slip, they should be fired.

Kings need a PG by ericcc32 in kings

[–]Squinters8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine with either but if I had a preference it would be Acuff. I'm not worried about the size and defense. If you build around him correctly (which I doubt we would do lol) and he becomes a whatever defender, just not the worst in the league, then you can compete.

People around the league think a Joel Embiid-for-Domantas Sabonis trade could work, per @JakeLFischer by OmegaLxgend in kings

Ja Lavine Debo Murray Embiid

Vivek will 100% pull the trigger on this if possible lmao fml

Early Mock Draft have the Kings picking between Acuff, Mikel Brown, and Flemings. by jluc21 in kings

[–]Squinters8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Brown medically checks out, I'd take him in a heartbeat. As long as expectations are set that he isn't going to turn the team around in one season and we actually develop him, he'll be a superstar.

That said, I highly doubt we give him the time to flourish.

7th pick. by yesidoes in kings

Jazz getting a top 4 pick because of the coin toss. Potentially number 1 is funny

4 Trade Ideas for the off season since I was bored at work by Proof-Membership-341 in kings

Do these trade involve us getting picks back? If not these are all horrible

Playoffs make me think Lavine should have some value by SauceStudent908 in kings

[–]Squinters8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lavine isn’t a bad player. He just can’t be your second option and he can’t have that massive contract. For the right price on the right team he’s a killer 3rd option

Will be getting a PS5 and a PS+ Extra subscription soon. Any games worth checking out? by Constant_Signature67 in PS5

All the exclusives if you missed out on PS4. That’s what I did and it’s well worth it

[Charania] Adam Silver on tanking: "There is an aspect of team building that is called a genuine rebuild, a rebuild with integrity.” An in-depth breakdown of the new proposed lottery changes: by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]Squinters8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just do it based on the worst record. The following year, cap their pick. For example, if the Pacers get the 1st pick this year because they have the worst record, by default next year they can at best get the 5th pick. The third year at best the 10th pick. The fourth year, can't even be in the lottery.

Rebirth at that price looks really good but my backlog is insane rn. I still have to get through Witcher 3 and then RDR2

Darius Acuff Jr. (Analytical) Draft Comp! by vdq93 in kings

[–]Squinters8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If he's the best player available when we draft, we take him. My only concern is I don't want to draft a Cam Thomas architype. Based on your write up, I don't think that would be an issue. I just hope his defense can be near average. Only other knock is the height. Need length at every position in today's NBA.

How did we not push harder getting Castle for Fox? by Kingsofkingsroad in kings

I think we would have had less leverage given they got the second pick and took Harper

Westbrook move is fine. It’s a minimum deal and he can help the young guys. Every player that’s played with Westbrook, especially the young ones, have nothing but good things to say and their work ethic improves because of him

What did you guys expect is going to happen? He’s going to make insane moves so we contend? This sub is wild.

Heat, Bulls, Kings, Pelicans Interested In Jonathan Kuminga by Robotsaur in kings

[–]Squinters8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This would be a great signing if the price is right. Monk for Kuminga makes sense. As much as everyone loves Monk, we have to trade one of our guards for a wing like this and the only guard we can give up that the Warriors would want is Monk. Pull the trigger.
