Michael Buffington

Received this 1958 photo from my Uncle in the 80’s and I got it autographed in 1988. I finally got it properly framed. The frame and matting is from @FansAuthentic. #MickeyMantle #Yankees

@The_StilesFiles This is proof the entire organization was not on the same page last year. The question is who is to blame? Sounds to me like Vivek and Christie were opposing Scott Perry.

There’s just no way I can simply move on to draft evaluation without roasting how utterly ridiculous stuff like this was. The Kings just refused to get out of their own way at every turn.

@BrendenNunesNBA Makes you wonder if the Owner, GM, and Coach were ever on the same page last season.

OKC is setup to be a dynasty and ppl thought they were disgraceful in how they tanked. Really, they were just being smart and future focused. Helps when a GM has the grace to see out his vision tho

Scott Perry has no one to blame but himself for the Kings finishing 7th in the NBA lottery. Anyone who saw the Kings the year before knew this wasn’t a winning roster and he still brought in Dennis Schroeder and Russel Westbrook in the offseason. Recognizing his mistake he traded Schroeder but didn’t waive Westbrook or buyout DeRozan’s contract at the break.

@TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Bullshit. You don’t tank as hard as they did to trade down.

The Washington Wizards will reportedly consider trading down from the No. 1 pick, per @JakeLFischer “Winger told me directly that the Wizards will at least consider trading down. He insisted that this is ‘not a savior moment’ for Washington given that the franchise just traded for two former All-Stars in Trae Young and Anthony Davis on top of the slew of recent lottery picks it already has accumulated. He added that, in accordance with Wizards general manager Will Dawkins' prospect evaluations, Washington will not rule out a move downward if Dawkins determines there are two or three players that the Wizards are eager to come away with.” (Via open.substack.com/pub/marcstein/…)

@BrendenNunesNBA No accountability for an organization that wasn’t on the same page last season. Owner, GM, and coach all had different agendas.

So ppl really think Sac media always tries to spin things in a positive way??? 😂😂

@MattGeorgeSAC This is proof the Kings organization was never on the same page last season. Top 4 draft teams blatantly committed to tanking and the Kings bring in veterans to win games they shouldn’t. Kings team wasted a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Scott Perry's face when the Kings got the 7th pick.

We need a statement like this from you, @Vivek. It's long overdue.

@kings_muse Maybe the Kings will bring back Westbrook and DeRozan to work on the culture.

22 win season only to fall in the draft and we’re currently projected as a 2nd apron team

@WorldWideWob @RyaninSactown You don’t understand. The Kings were trying to change their culture by winning those games.

The Sacramento Kings went 3-3 in the final month of the season while everyone else around them historically tanked. The result was them having to flip a coin with the Jazz for a standings tiebreaker. The Kings lost the coin flip, and will now pick 7th while the Jazz pick 2nd.

I tried to tell y’all 🤷🏿‍♂️ it looks even worse if Precious got to make a mixtape, cooked your odds, then signs elsewhere.

@James_HamNBA Yeah, but the Kings changed their culture with those late wins.

The Sacramento Kings will select No. 7 overall. Yikes.

The sucking of being a Kings fan will never end. Never. Ugh…

@MattGeorgeSAC This is why we complained about those culture wins Matt

AND NEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW 📺 @paramountplus

@adamscrabble Did you see him run out of there throwing gloves into the crowd “like a fat kid being told 🗣️ “no” to his third slice of chocolate cake”?

I think Sean Strickland did enough for the W, Khamzat didn’t do much with his takedowns outside of R1.

Wow! What a decision! Amazing!!!

You got to beat the champion. Wasn’t enough. Strickland didn’t do enough.

@BrettSiegelNBA I disagree

Nobody is taking down the Thunder this year. They’re going back-to-back.
