    simply not true...and I've been a fan since 76....what you aren't taking into account is the improvement from Jake, Meyers, Dame's defense, Nurks patience...we're way better this year than last year....

    Does it really matter who else they sign if their starting lineup is healthy?

    The Rams are playing in the freaking super bowl in 3 days. Yet the Lakers still dominate LA radio.

    The Nurk trade was incredible, but we’re about 2 weeks away from that trade being 2 whole years in the past now. The Collins draft moveup wasnt exactly a needle mover but I appreciate the effort. Just wish we’d see another attempt at improving the roster in a way that isnt signing journeymen shooters on minimum contracts (not that I don’t love Seth already)

    I'm not going to get mad if we don't do anything at the deadline. There isn't some special "fan/team" agreement that player movement must happen no later than ______. But I am going to react when see a team forming a legitimate plan to improve their team in a fast and effective manner. It's as natural as seeing your neighbor put in a jacuzzi and you're still waiting three months for the contractor to get his tools out.

    Not sure why people bash Neil. We lost Aldridge, Wes, and Lopez for nothing and he still built us into a winner without missing the playoffs.

    More than half the teams in the league make the Playofs.....it's not a huge accomplishment. It's more about, what do you do when you get there.

    Ask Kings fans how easy it is to make the playoff. Making the playoffs in the West is difficult. We made 5 seed in 2016. 10 teams behind us. Impressive. Oh and we won a round. Many people thought we’d be a 20 win team that would take years to get back into playoffs and Neil surprised everybody with shrewd moves and has continued to keep us competitive every year.

    If his value is that low, I think it safe to assume his injury issues are worse than the public has been told.
