    This is a good move for the Kings and Wes. DMC is a maniac about playing hard and committing to the game, same as Wes. But DMC is also walking a razors edge of crazy, but Wes is a zen badass. DMC will respect the hell out of Wes because he plays so hard, so DMC might finally let himself be mentored. And Wes gets PAID!

    I still don't see how this is good for Wes? Playoff team to bottom list. Cousins is a wreck, and is not a team player. He's about himself and that's it...the only good thing is that wes is making a ridiculous amount of money.

    3 years 45 mill...Kings are taking a risk...he might not be the same player or worse if he tries to much too soon his ankle could do another gumby.

    Ha! apparently Wes is using Sac to get a larger contract from Dallas. Of course earlier Sac did a many + draft pick for cap space to sign Wes.

    I don't get it. Ben McLamore is their future at SG. They have Gay at SF. Where is Wes going to play?

    That would make Wes the highest paid undrafted athlete in sports history. The current record holder is Tony Romo.

    He'll never run out of quarters at the arcade. Sheesh! I think Olshey is wanting to invest that money in CJ in the future.
