Casspi is an underrated part of that trade tbh

yeah I don't understand it. A good shooting energy guy who can play the 3 and 4? Nope that dude has no value to anyone just toss him in for the hell of it

Kings have been running Cousins promo stuff up through the all-star break. Something like 30% off all Cousins gear to "celebrate" his all-star appearance. But businessman 3.0 Vivek found a way to offload merchandise without tipping his hand

Now we can call up Papa John to the big time. And that frees up a spot to send Buddy Hield back down to the D-League for seasoning

MATT BARNES GETTING WAIVED!!! WHY DID WE GET RID OF OMRI?!

Matt Barnes getting waived. Man, Dave Joerger has to be pissed

# ¿ Feb 20, 2017 07:13

WhyteRyce: Dec 30, 2001

Like, Matt Barnes was crap but Dave Joerger loved him and the reason why Omri wasn't getting any time was because Barnes sucked up all those minutes.

Aaron Afflalo actually plays better (like at below average level) as a SF and we gotta make room for Buddy

Grant Napear is saying all these anonymous ex-players are messaging him thanking him for speaking the truth about DeMarcus

Anonymous, can't say the name. But trust him. Five players!

He finally got himself out of Joerger's dog house and has been playing well as a low volume, high efficiency scorer.

Like I know Vivek signed off on the deal, but this was the best that Vlade could negotiate? Dejan please talk to me about how they negotiate in the Baalkans

Cousins was a bad dude, just trust Grant he talked to five anonymous players who says so

After the Philly and NO deals, I'm pretty sure Vlade has no idea how pick protections work

The dirty little not-so-secret of tech venture capital is that at least 90% of it is clueless rich fucks literally gambling their money on a shitload of obviously bad investments hoping for one lucky home run. If they were a tiny bit smarter about what to invest in they would make a lot more money. I don't know much about Vivek but if I had to guess, he is one of those guys.

Shorter: take a long look at the dude in the white house right now if you think rich implies savvy

Vivek only has a 20%ish stake in the team, but he's chairman of the ownership group that controls 60%ish shares so he gets to be in charge. He didn't really pay that much for the team in the grand scheme of things and selling off his warrior shares probably covered the bulk of it

Sac fans, is there ANY sense of "relief" or anything? Like, yes, this is a truly terrible trade but finally, FINALLY, the Kings can attempt to move on and get out of the 9-11th seed morass.

Oh there are plenty of people that wanted Cousins gone and are pleased, including the hacks in the Sacramento media. The AM radio is full of hot takes. But they think we'll actually be a better team now without him

In one way I'm happy that Cousins is gone because Vivek and the FO have no excuses or cover now. Nothing can be done about Vivek but maybe enough people will stop treating Vlade as that kindly old grandpa we loved and have good memories of and instead see him now as that senile old dude who says a bunch of racist poo poo at the dinner table and pees himself
