Also, the guys discuss who they are most excited to watch at this year’s summer league in Las Vegas, why they like DeMar DeRozan signing with the Kings, and how the Spurs’ offseason has set them up for success now and into the future.

Kevin's transition to becoming a Ruth Bader Ginsburg doppleganger is almost complete. Excited about your progress!
🤣
Kings defense the last 55 games: 10th
Kings D after ASB: 4th
Fox: lead the league in steals
Murray: 1st in iso defense
Ellis' defense speaks for itself
Is their defense perfect? Definitely not. But those in the national media saying they got worse are just wrong. Harrison quite literally would stand in the way & do nothing else. Demar is probably the best free agent Sac has ever signed. We got better in every way with this signing
Video!? Been living under a rock? Finally
Grizzlies saw how great Steven seems build was, and edey’s a great comp.
Bro really said Keegan Bradley
well he does play golf....
I was dying here
my concern for the kings is demar and sabonis both operate in the midpost area
No time stamps. Just wanted to hear about Derozan. Pretty much lost any view time from me because I couldn't find it
I don't know. I think Killian hayes has a chance to be a generational talent.
Kings defense is a concern?! Just more media who clearly don’t pay attention to Sacramento basketball lol
You racist bro?
It’s definitely a concern lol
If their defense wasn’t a concern they’d be top 5 title favorites
They need to have Keon be in the starting lineup next year. I saw they were a top 5 unit when he was in the rotation.
Embiid has been dealing with the fact nobody is able to throw a post entry past his whole career, the only ones have been like Harden and Batum🤦🏻
You forget prime Ben and Tyrese. Joel just isn’t there come playoff time. He’s gotta be healthy
@@coopertodd28fr mans always gotta go crazy in the season for that mvp he need that fmvp!!
@@coopertodd28Tyrese is getting pretty good at it, but I didn’t include Ben because even if he got him the ball he was so inept and garbage in the half court sometimes I just can’t give him credit for it lol. Especially when he would end up just ruining the spacing anyways just standing in the dunkers spot like a doofus.
@@Mr_Huskky that’s true. I’ve got faith in embiid he just needs to make it there. Hopefully their big three with the decent depth can stay upright a whole season or close to
@@coopertodd28 🤞🏻
for caleb martin, it might be similar to duncan robinson. large number on the surface, but loaded with weird conditions. it might be 65 for 5 but only 40 is guaranteed
KOC beard is back. The west is tough. Only easy team to beat is Portland. Every night you going have to bring it.
Edey is gonna put up solid numbers but the real question is how long can he play with teams just hunting him defensively and running up and down the court
Keegan Bradley 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kevin slipped " Wemby, who could be the MVP next year" in to the conversation and Vernon didn't even bat an eye.
Not insane anymore lmao
KOC with a revenge for Chris chiding him about Killian.
Bronny James tonight. 28 minutes. 3 points 😂
Mr. Second Apron
Sound?
It's important
😊@@TheTwinkiefoot
How the hell did you not mention Cam Spencer? Also GG Jackson played the WORST summer league game ever from a second year player in that first game. Kings will not finish above 9th place and will have the WORST def rating in history.
We might get portis or Isaiah Stewart , kings have a chip on shoulderfrom how last year ended
Is verno wearing face makeup here?
These two are wack af
Corn city
Bronny is already ducking games.. 😂 shocker.. Load management, just like his daddy. 😂😂😂
Memphis is not a contender even if all goes their way. They should be playoff team , but lets remember they lost to lakers last time around in the first round. They didnt look much better since. JJJ has problem stayin on the floor, Ja has same problem, different reasons. How good is a roster around them remains to be seen, talent is mediocre to ok, but fit is unknown - they havent played with Smart and smart didnt look good since he came to Memphis. Since you guys are much smarter about basketball I wonder what Im missing?
As far as the Kings, Barnes was a solid defender. Nothing special. Also, DeRozan is taking Heurter's spot, who's godawful defensively. They can now rest Fox more. Yes, he's older, but Barnes is almost 33.
Barnes was a negative defender last year. In 12 years watching Derozan I’ve never heard anyone give a shit about his defense but the second he’s on the Kings he’s some “massive downgrade” it’s a joked
@@shawn9366 As a Kings fan, I can't say that I've ever really watched him too much. As far as HB, I appreciate the guy, bur he's a solid role player. A seventh or eighth player on your roster. He's just not good enough to be a team who wants to be a legitimate playoff threat
Derozans defense was exploited because he was often playing SF and playing in Small ball lineups where everyone is switching. Lavine and Vucevic don’t defend well, and Caruso was often playing PF.
So yeah, not sure what the kings lineups are like, but I don’t think his defense is nearly as bad in a competent team.
