lol
timberwolves seem to want to get rid of rubio, so why not
I 100% trust him on this. He probably only bought himself in to the Warriors because he was first to realize how great Steph would be.
/s
Fine. Celtics never wanted Cousins Didn't even get into talks with the Kings because Cousins is a headache.

Steph Curry beard potential
I was just coming in here to talk about this lmao
This makes those awful columns by Bill Simmons about the Celtics acquiring Cousins look even worse.

I feel like I remember this being a thing in the offseason too
I'd be skeptical too when the Kings clearly wanted it to be known that they hated the guy.
Really not a big deal.

Worst part of this Boogie trade happening now is that we have to listen to three days of hot takes and "Boogie is cancer/no he's not" arguments until we ever get to see him play.

Have they actually watched Buddy Hield play basketball?

Come play for the Kings, guys!
Please Vlade, keep talking.

That second one is rich. Ownership should be quite pleased to read that.
Competent ownership, I mean.
It's possible that this was a dig at Vivek for forcing Vlade to get Hield as opposed to taking an objectively better deal.

No, because right after that he said that he makes the decisions because Vivek trusts him to make the right ones.

Can we ban NBA threads for awhile. It's hurting my feelings. 😫😫 It's hard being a fan of this team.
On the bright side I can watch our young team lose all the games!

Don't worry. You can ketchup with the Giants soon.

If your talking about the Lakers.. it didn't matter who they offered, if it wasn't Ingram then the Kings would've rejected it. I mean the rumored trade was J clarkson , J Randle and a 1st rounder and the stupid Kings still turned it down. That offer the lakers made is 10x better than what they got from the Pelicans. It comes down to mismanagement in the FO. I still can't believe this trade went down. The Pelicans basically gave up garbage for gold.

Vlade might be the worst GM in NBA history

Im not sure how he is still employed. Actually makes MItch and Jim look great.
Vlade/Vivek is up there as worst GM/Owner combo that's for sure.

You mean the time when the Sixers made good trades including the one holding the Kings hostage?

It is scary to think Jim and Mitch could not cut a deal with an inept GM in Sac though. Like that show bad LA is now. They can't even strike a deal with some who was giving DC away.

They offered a very fair deal, better than what the Kings got. Can't really blame them that the Kings are insanely stupid.
Because the Kings owner thinks Buddy Hield has Steph Curry potential and intentionally didn't take their best offer.

I bet Vivek would have turned down the Brooklyn pick in favor of Hield.

This is like watching a train wreck happen in real time.
