    What do we do with New Orleans and Sacramento?

    Fade or follow?

    Obvious is to follow New Orleans and Fade Sacramento but is it going to be easy as it seems?

    Any thoughts?

    Gotta see how things gel in norl first. Are boogie and the brow going to be in the court together much or will they stagger at times during 2nd unit minutes? If the former then probably norl 1h as a precursor for me

    The Kings have played alright in cousin's absence this year. They are getting 7@ home tonight after resting over allstar weekend. But I hear theyare shopping afflalo, so it wouldn't surprise me if they aren't done dumping players and it will be good to fade them soon. Especially on the road.

    i was thinking you should tail both teams..... i think they'll both have really positive energy after this. and i like the players that sac-town will give more minutes or a more prominent offensive role to. sac was doing really well before the all-star break and my sense is it wasn't because of cousins.

    Doesn't Sac have a draft pick to protect? This is where the tanking starts to protect draft picks for next year, they need to stay in the top 10 I believe. Same with LAL, they are protecting a top 3 pick.

    That indian guy who owns Sacramento is very unlucky when it comes to sports business. he was a majority owner of Warriors and after warriors struggling he gave up his shares and bought sacramento instead in 2013. since 2013 golden state has sky rocketed....kings have been still a dud.

    he is a complete dumbfukk

    not unlucky

    he wanted to keep ellis and get rid of curry

    he wanted to try a 4 on 5 defensive scheme to cherry pick

    he deserves all that has happened to him

    Vivek randiv is the worst owner in nba history. His only basketball experience prior to getting ripped off by the Maloofs was an assistant coach for his 13 yr old daughters girls team. I'm not kidding

    Vlady is not the GM to make you say WOW.
    Maybe qualified for the owners previous coaching position.

    Kings team, management and ownership is a trainwreck.

    Sacramento wins by 16 points now Cousins is gone; Cousins first game with Pelicans, they lose by 30

    People just don't believe how big a loser this guy is. He is trying to take the title away from Carmelo.

    I'm really surprised they broke up that New Orleans squad. They made Gentry look better than he really is. Now we get to see the real Gentry at work. 10+ game losing streak coming.

    again, not a cousins fan but he had a very good game for NON......... houston was hot 3 point shooting and took 52 3 point shots. not sure how you can beat that combo. of course they won't be hot every night.
