Go back and watch Stauskas play from last season.  He gets BULLIED on defence. 

Looking at the sum of the trades we moved a top 8 pick (#7), a salary dump and we received, Koufos, Bellinelli, Rondo - who are all upgrades on everyone we got rid of.

And still not good enough for the 8 seed in the west. They traded a pick 8 who can still become a decent shooter in the NBA, another first round pick and TWO pick swaps. Those pick swaps could very well be two top 5 picks they lose in that deal to go out and sign Rajon Rondo, Bellinelli and Koufos.

In Vlade we trust.  He made the moves to clear cap space and then he went and got Bellinelli, Rondo & Koufos.  Now he has moved Ray Ray. 

Vivek Ranadive has said he wont shave until Vlade is finished - he still hasn't shaved......

How do the Kings plan on finding enough minutes for DMC, WCS, and Koufus? Don't like the fit of any of those 2 together at the one time.

DMC will get his minutes, don't worry about that.  Koufos and WCS will split the rest of the time between them.

If Dallas don't pull something our of their a$$ soon, I can't see them making the playoffs. Too many great teams out west.
can you imagine is players saw this and intentionally did what Jordan did to just destroy other teams with no intention of ever going there.

Kanter signed massive deal with Portland I forgot trying to find the amount again. But why would you go to Portland?

because they had the money to offer him a massive deal.

Wes Matthews deal got upgraded by Dallas - gone up from 4 years $57m to 4 years $70m

Turned out nice for Wes, he got more money than what the Kings offered him

Thunder have already said they will match the offer so Kanter will stay put.

Hibbert seems to have signed with Lakers and Dallas have got Zaza as their consolation prize.

i feel really bad for Dallas and Dirk, he has been taking less money to keep the team a contender and this bonehead basically derails all his hard work with his indecision, i hope that Jordan is healthy and irrelevant for the rest of his career :-X
