    SnT.

    Phoenix is doing well this offseason. Maybe they will give us Bledsoe in a SNT or Dragic for Jones+NOP pick.

    4 years/27 million is an absolute STEAL for what Thomas brings, especially considering the current market. The Kings continue to underestimate Thomas and his value...

    ?? This makes no sense. Why do they need ANOTHER point guard?

    I like Dragic, but that is too much for him.

    I'm amazed that 4/27 was enough, considering what everyone else is getting this summer.

    And the Kings could've matched. The Kings messsed up again.
