Oh, and I hope Jokic is okay, obviously.


I saw it happen. He seemed to alright once he got up. I'm with you in hoping his okay. I'm also hoping he plays against the Wolves on Saturday. My mindset right now is that I want to see the Wolves tested early on while we're healthy to find out what we have. The only break I want for this team is to stay healthy. Otherwise, hope they're challenged every game to the point where it makes or breaks this team. Will this team crumble under that sort of constant pressure or will they respond more like coal and emerge as something resembling a diamond. I'm ready to find out what we've got. If the team crumbles, then let's clear out most of the mess and keep one or two shiny nuggets - Edwards and .... Well, maybe it's one shiny nugget. :)

Crazy the Lakers were killing them earlier. Never hurts to see them lose.

The Kings beat the Suns tonight by 3 points. Once again, Marvin Bagley III was a DNP Coaches Decision. Bagley has played in only 1 of the Sacramento's 4 games so far this season and he only played 10 minutes in that game. No telling how much longer he'll be with the Kings, but there's no way he'll be there after the February trade deadline and I think he'll be moved long before then. The question is where he'll go and what the Kings will get in return.

I would love to get bagley just don't think the Wolves have the contacts to actually get him.

He is the Kings version of Johnny Flynn.

And that's why we should try to snag him!?

IDK....As long as DLO, KAT, and Edwards are healthy, there aren't many shots to go around. Vando is awesome since he doesn't give a crap about shot attempts. His motor is 110% no matter what and he impacts the game in other ways. I wonder if Bagley, while more gifted, would have the same impact in a low-usage role?

Anyone watch this Knicks/Bulls game? The final two minutes have been absolutely wild. Chicago has a chance to steal one tonight after an off night offensively.

Well, that ended with a thud for the home crowd.

They won't get anything near what Kahn got back for Flynn...

Finding a matching contract will be a problem. If the Wolves are still competitive then I may not be interested in sending prince for him. I believe Prince will be a worthwhile player for the Wolves. It's possible keeping Prince and resigning him to a reasonable contract is worth more than Bagley. I am a fan of taking a flyer on Bagley but there is a real chance he is at best a decent bench player. He has some legit decent production when he plays although staying healthy is also a concern.
