Hell to the muthaflockin yes! Hawes, still only 22 (just turned), still has “potential” but that’s such a dirty, nasty, filthy word. Sorta like the local stripper named “Candy”. It sure sounds good, but, why does she have all of those cold sores on her lip? The Kings will acquire Samuel Dalembert in exchange fo...

Well, I’m not really sure I’d classify this under breaking news by any stretch as it’s been well known for some time, but it’s at least in print this time around. Sources have confirmed to Yahoo’s Adrian Wojnarowski that one time King and current Raptor Hedo Turkoglu would like a return to his one time home away fr...

I use the term “awarded” loosely. The lowest, mathematically the Kings could have picked was 6th. So, technically, it wasn’t the worst thing possible thing to happen. Just the second worst. At least we didn’t drop to the worst possible position last year either. Oh wait. Razors are on aisle 7. Shotgun shells are on aisle ...

Earlier this afternoon, the Sacramento Kings announced they had picked up the third year option on Paul Westphal’s contract which runs through the 2011-2012 season. The Kings coaching situation has been just as, if not more unstable than the roster the past few years as they’ve had five head coaches since 2006 and the departure of l...

With only 8 games left on the schedule, the timing of the move was odd to say the least, especially with Brockman, May, and Hawes all nursing injuries of some sort…but yesterday evening news broke that the Kings waived Joey Dorsey who was acquired from the Houston Rockets in the Carl Landry/Kevin Martin trade. Dorsey didn’t play m...

I’m not sure if I should laugh at this or what. No worries Noch, we want you gone much worse than you want to be here – trust me on that my little Argentinian chucker. This is at least the third time in the past year that you’ve pissed and moaned your way to the Argentinian press, most likely assuming that we dirty Americans c...

I often referred to Sam as an icon – a local hero – a superhero of sorts. Of course, it was all in fun – but, it was speaking to his overall ability and great coverage of the Sacramento Kings. Over my years in sports blogging, especially NBA, I’ve come to know quite a few people…especially beat writers from various...

I think Boyz II Men were onto something when they said “It’s so hard, to say goodbye”… You weren’t the longest tenured King by any stretch nor were you the best. In reality though, you gave us hope. You gave us reason to believe. Maybe we hyped it up too much, maybe it was our fault,  but it’s all we ha...

In what has been a whirl wind twenty four hours, the Kings finally completed the anticipated (yet shocking) Kevin Martin deal this morning. The final deal looks like this: The Knicks will acquire McGrady and Sergio Rodriguez from Sacramento, sources said. The Rockets get Kevin Martin, Jordan Hill and Jared Jeffries from New York and will h...

The Sacramento Kings are in advanced talks with the Houston Rockets on a trade that will swap Kevin Martin for Tracy McGrady Along with Martin, the Kings will send Sergio Rodridguez, Hilton Armstrongand Kenny Thomasto the Rockets. Joey Dorsey and Carl Landry will go to the Kings. I don’t even know what the fuck to say. ...

It looks like things weren’t so quiet in the Kingdom, like we’ve been lead to believe. With Salmons being traded to the Bucks, this trade is no longer valid obviously…but it apparently was quite close to happening: The proposed deal was contingent on John Salmons(notes) staying with the Bulls, but that appeared in doubt wi...
