NBA Two-a-Days: Sacramento Kings
NBA October 23rd. 2008, 5:45pm
If you’d like to get excited about the prospects of a team starting two mediocre post players over 30 (Brad Miller, 32; Mikki Moore, 33), decent-at-best SF John Salmons, and a new starting PG in Udrih, then fine. You go right ahead and do that. And even if the Kings haven’t settled on a starting lineup, and maybe Hawes sneaks in there, it doesn’t matter.
Other than Kevin Martin – who could lead the NBA in scoring; he was 6th last year – we don’t see too much to be thrilled bout. This prediction of 32 wins seems incredibly generous. We’re guessing 24-27 victories and a Top 5 pick in next year’s draft. If Oklahoma’s Blake Griffin in the board, the Kings could at least shows reasons for optimism next year: Udrih, Martin, Garcia, Griffin, and Hawes.

The Kings haven’t been the same since LaSalle Thompson left.

Just 144,500 or so more views and this post will make the HOF over there on the right.

you really want your starting 5 to include spencer hawes? that’s not something i’d like to rely on. why not put garcia at the3 now? what do you have to gain by salmons play instead of garcia now? udrih, martin, garcia could provide pretty good building blocks.
