    Dumb, dumb, dumb, why the hell would you go back to that hellhole. Should've stayed with the Warriors.

    Money is the name of the game. Don't blame him, but man he would have been great for a team that needs a guy to score off the bench, was one of the most physical players I've seen.

    I agree. Why go back there? He had something good with Golden State. Obviously went with the money and I'm not going to blame him but...

    Thompson, Patterson, Hayes, Landry

    Wow. How the hell are the Kings thinking that giving that kind of contract to Landry really makes sense given where the franchise is at? Are they really going to be competing for a title next season???... geez.

    Good deal for Landry though. 6.5 a year isn't bad at his age in the new CBA era. Take the money and ask questions later.... Im sure he wont be shocked if the team is forced to try and move him in a year or two though.

    Sacramento just loves our PFs... Good deal for Landry, but I guess he settled for money over success. Can't lame him though, always been a fan of his.

    There probably wasn't another team offering even 70% of that contract.

    Carl got the cash thrown his way and he bolted. Good for him, I guess.

    why would a team already blessed with the services of superstar PF in the making patrick patterson need to invest $26M in another PF? :confused:

    Say what you will, but for a guy that hasn't been paid alot in his career getting over 6 million per year is worth it rotting in Sac. He can always just stop giving any effort like he did with the Pelicans.
