@BrendenNunesNBA Rookies were good. Westbrook/Achiuwa were fine. Trade sucked, Dennis sucked, trade sucked, keeping Doug is meh.

How does everyone feel about Scott Perry after Year 1?
- Rookie Class (Nique, Max, Dylan)
- Signing Westbrook and Achiuwa
- Traded Valanciunas for Saric to make room to sign... Dennis Schroder (3yr/$45M)
- Traded Schroder and Ellis for Hunter
- Kept Doug Christie as HC

Good! Tanking this year has been shameful.
Franchises should learn how to build a winner like the Spurs and Thunder: By tanking 4-6 years ago!
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The NBA has disclosed to its 30 GMs a singular new anti-tanking reform that expands the draft lottery to 16 teams, flattens odds, and have a relegation zone where the bottom 3 teams are penalized with fewer lottery balls for the No. 1 pick. ESPN details: espn.com/nba/story/_/id…

@derekeagleton Hey Derek! Are you guys gonna post the full The Draft Show - Day 1 replay anywhere? I missed the first 14 picks and wanted to watch the replay!
English
Make sure you're watching the Draft Show. They definitely got their guy because the war room is celebrating.

There are two scenarios:
1. Jazz win the coin flip
2. Kings win the coin flip and the Jazz jump up to the first pick

@Aykis16 Just for shits and giggles, ones who would for sure go higher than Max:
Flagg, Harper, Edgecombe, Kon, Bailey, Fears, maybe Queen
Maybes: Murray-Boyles, Yang Hansen?
Who am I missing?

@flasportsbuzz @James_HamNBA do you know if he's going to continue with the Kings?

Mark Jones, who has long South Florida ties, is leaving ESPN by choice, he tells me. He simply felt it was time. ESPN says he could have stayed if he wanted. Magic-Celtics at 6 p.m. Sunday will be his final ESPN appearance; there will be an ESPN tribute to him during the game.

I apologize to the Kings for thinking they fouled Curry as a nefarious tanking strategy. I should’ve remembered that Doug Christie is an inept coach, so him inexplicably fouling a good FT shooter to set up a TO play was in play as either a f-up or a willfully dumb idea. My bad.

NBA statement: "The NBA has completed an investigation of the Sacramento Kings and Head Coach Doug Christie's decision to foul intentionally late in the team's game against the Golden State Warriors on April 7. The league's investigation determined that Christie mistakenly believed that the Warriors were not in the penalty and therefore instructed his team to foul in an attempt to stop the clock and utilize one of the team's remaining timeouts. The investigation found that Christie made no intentional effort to give the Warriors a shooting foul, or to cause the Kings to lose the game."
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The NBA is looking into what multiple sources say was a strategy mistake by Kings coach Doug Christie on an intentional foul of Seth Curry while leading the Warriors with over 3 minutes left in Tuesday's game:

@NateDuncanNBA @WorldWideWob In any other “normal” organization, does this type of error cost a coach his job? I feel like it would?
English
@WorldWideWob yeah they've now explained it to my satisfaction. Still not really a normal thing to take even a foul to give in that situation but I believe it was simply bad coaching.

As of the time of this posting, the tweet below has 1.4M views.
The two sets of free throws shown were the result of:
1) Christie wanting to stop play so he could call his use-it-or-lose-it timeout before time dropped below 3 mins.
2) Cardwell fouling Seth during a live rebound, and the Warriors being in the bonus.
McDermott, the same guy who gave the foul after being instructed, made a 3 the very next possession from a set play Christie drew up.
Hater Report@HaterReport
We have NEVER seen this level of tanking bruh Doug Christie literally instructed his players on the Kings TO FOUL SETH CURRY ON PURPOSE while up 101-100 in the 4th quarter INSANE 😭💀

Could someone wake up Adam Silver and tell him the bottom half of the league is in shambles?
English
@kings_muse How would it work considering the kings jazz and nets have split all the season series' with eachother
English
High chance of there being a 3 way tie for 3rd place in the lottery based on the remaining schedules for each team.
If 2 teams are tied a coin flip is done.
If multiple teams are tied it would go to winning percentage in head 2 head matchups.

Remaining Schedules to Determine 3-4-5 in the NBA Draft Lottery: BKN - IND - @ MIL - @ TOR UTA - MEM - @ LAL SAC - GSW - @ POR

Who’s beating this starting five???

@SacKings2618 @HPbasketball I'm already mentally prepared for the pain

@HPbasketball Sacramento at 7, as is tradition. Low-key, the Kings absolutely torpedoing their tank late in the season is very on brand. Tanking is bad but when your team does this after a horrific season, it’s an extra gut punch.
English
I never do Tankathon sims. I decided to do one on a whim.
What fresh hell is this.

Cowboys are releasing LB Logan Wilson, as @VoiceOfTheStar also reported. Cowboys acquired Wilson from the Bengals at the trade deadline last year in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft pick.

Don’t listen to this young men. Be there for the mother of your child and let the rest take care of itself. Those midnight feedings turns into financial freedom because nothing will inspire you more than being a great father.

NEW: Ole Miss coach Joe Judge tells pregnant partners of players during the season that the father has to play good football. “He needs to be in another room, detached… he ain’t waking up for midnight feedings.”

@SPTSJUNKIE Yep if the offer was Middleton and one of those bad 1sts, I'd rather keep Sabonis.
English
This might be the unpopular take, but I am fine with it.
Perry inherited a mess. We are impatient because the old front office was too passive; that doesn’t mean that Perry should force a bad move.
I prefer no trade and revisiting in the off-season when contracts are shorter.
Jake Fischer@JakeLFischer
There will be no Domantas Sabonis trade, sources say. He’s sticking in Sacramento.
