    Heads should roll in the King's front office.

    If you clone Jeremy Lamb and trade him twice, does he count twice for trade salary purposes?

    Pacers better be sending some mighty good draft compensation. Is Tristan's contract so bad that no picks are involved?

    Ok, now this is a good trade.

    We will see what Carlisle does with this talent.

    This begs the next question - WTF is Monte McNair thinking? I am sure someone will post how stats and analytics tell us that Sabonis is the best player in the league.

    Ok, sure, whatever.

    Pacers must have a Mcnair sex tape. This deal is so one-sided. I can't believe Morey would not take that deal.

    LOL Tristian is on an expiring deal! How did they not get a first? I don't have words for how bad this deal is.

    Sometimes ownership steps in and demands things.... it doesn't usually work out well.... but it happens....

    Sabonis will be the best player the Kings have had for a long time. a 25 year old multi-time All-Star. But I'd still rather have Haliburton at this point

    Haliburton can ball. He is everything we wish KPJ could be. He is a 6'5 PG with great ball skills and hi bball IQ.

    He is about to turn 22 years old, but I agree with you that he is pretty good young player.

    Kings REALLY wanted Jeremy Lamb in this deal!!

    Kings... oh dear.
    The one and ONLY player on their roster they should have kept was Haliburton. And he is the guy they trade for (yet another) mismatched piece in Sabonis.
    Sabonis is great in many ways, but no rim protection or spacing
