    Luka / x
    Reaves / Monk
    Ellis / LaRavia
    X / Vando
    Ayton / x

    That’s a team you could conceivably keep together for a few years. We’d need a 3&D wing to round out the starting unit and a backup PG and big. But that’s super doable and I think that can compete as well.

    It seems our old friend Malik Beasely was cleared on the gambling investigation. Of course he lost a big pay day from Detroit

    I will trade for Monk love Monk. We need a shot maker.


    I’ll give them Dalton Knect the first round 2031 pick unprotected. Vincent.

    Tyler the creator tickets. Whatever just get this deal done.

    it is a steal. Ideal 6th man. These kinds of players win us championships. We need him for OKC.

    I’ll pack Knects bags for him. He fits better in Sacramento.

    but knowing the Kings they’ll trade him to San Antonio or Denver just to f*** us.

    Nobody’s touching Beasley now. He’s suspicious.

    The Kings are being cheap and they don’t want to pay Monk. They’d rather sign Westbrook for 1 season.

    the more i think about it, the more it seems like media fabrication in a dull period. i'm sure they've offered him in trades because they're way out of contention and he's maxed out as a prospect or whatever. but i don't think they're "trying to dump" him. they're probably hoping to get a picks or prospects for him--and i do think knecht qualifies here. the problem for me is that i'm not sure we can afford to move gabe AND kleber + knecht, and using rui instead is kind of robbing peter to pay paul.

    that's why my first inclination was to ask about ellis or carter.

    in any case, i can see opportunities.
