congrats monte on being the most patient! all the players are gone , but you were the most patient!
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Monte is terrible
Chill out we're 1 or 2 players away from being really good we don't have the assets as other teams have plus we are one of the worst free agent teams no body wants to come here for the most part an Monty was the reason we made the playoffs
Who are "all the players" exactly?
feels like we've been here before. musical chairs and kings are left holding their own junk in the end. forget patience
😂
I think the Kings as leaking the stories about their attempts to land one of those players. If they end up doing nothing they can say they tried.
You might be on to something there
Monte is trash
It's like Zaidi with the Giants.
Our move was keeping Monk
Yeah now back to not making the playins!
This ain’t enough Monte is trash
Been patient for over 20 years lmao
🎉
Too much patience is not good, they call it procrastinating. We are always one trade late.
I think Monte is a smart guy, seriously. He is doing well. Firing him would be foolish. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes. His patience is exactly what the kings organization needs. He is a stabilizing force working to bring long term health, something the kings haven’t had in years. I am thankful for him. Don’t judge too soon.
Also, the kings didn’t make the playoffs last year, but remember we had injuries and likely would have. This is not a completely desperate team and acting like we are would leave us worse off.
I've seen this movie
The market will dry up, with the Kings left holding the bag...
I don't care who we get, but I don't want to see Harrison Barnes in this uniform anymore
Agree with the first half of your comment. Kings will likely be left with nothing.
Monte is horrible
Bruh y'all sucked up all Barnes value. Now y'all think someone want him now
Kings don’t even want Zach Lavine. That’s should tell you how worse my Chicago bulls GM is lol
Barnes and huerter would give pelicans crazy depth if trade does go through
New Orleans don't want that trash compare to a Ingram
Ingram will be free agents at end of next year
And they be over first and close second Apon if sign him next year
@@salvadorfuentes3914 not necessarily New Orleans can extend him this season or if they trade him he gonna get extended.
They’re running it back….again😅
How about Wendel Carter for Heurter. Kings get more length and the magic gets better shooting.
On the bright side, without Jonas, at least New Orleans won't absolutely own us again next season.
Monty Mcsquare I’m losing my patience 😡😡
We just going in squares , hitting all 4 corners to nothing
Monte knows what he’s doing….. the reason the Kings have a better team is because of Monte.
Everybody is upset for Monte being patient.
We are one pick away from a finals run.
It’s the most important time to wait for a player that fits our team
Imagine the Haul it would take to get Haliburton now. It would take Sabonis, a young player, and 3 picks. Monte sold too early. I think Fox and Haliburton would have figured it out.
We should have got big Jonas V. 10 milly a year and we paying sabonis 35? Yikes. We missed out already big time.
Same thing I said
Thought the same thing, but maybe JV wasn't a target of theirs 🤔
Don’t compare sabonis to JV plz sabonis is quite literally levels and levels and levels above him
@@nbaclutchhoops1589except when he plays against JV.
@@KonaSaint504 sabonis vs JV head to head since 2022
Sabonis: 18.4 pts 10.7 reb 8 ast
JV: 14.3 pts 11 reb 2.4 ast
Sabonis has made an all nba team, JV never been considered for an all star game, sabonis was the most important player in one of the best offensive teams ever in 2022-2023, JV gets benched every other game bc of how unplayable he is. Yes sabonis is levels ahead of him
Bruh if the kings don’t make a move im done with our front office , we need to make a move NOW , enough being patient , Monte McNair should be on the hot seat
I think Ranadive is a huge problem as well, he has always wanted to copy what the Warriors had with that small lineup of Curry, Thompson and Green.
Idk if it’s gonna happen cuz they probably want Keegan. Since hali carried the pacers farther than sabonis has us we can’t afford moving another draft pick honestly.
Keegan is who people want.. that's all we have except draft picks
East big difference from the west
Monte is horrible
U mean pascal
Idk that kuz nor Lauri or bi or Lavigne makes us west contenders anyway. We need a rim protector, lob threat, or athletic driver, and defense not a scoring option that will slow Keegan’s development.
Adding Lauri without giving up more than 2 rotational players makes us a threat to come out of the west
Thank u we need a real center and we can put sabonis at pf and Keegan at sf would be a lot better. Sabonis is not good in certain match ups. I wish we just sign Dwight Howard
Monte is trash he’s not doing anything
Monk is not coming off the bench next year
Not worried about another team swooping in to steal Ingram... That is what has happened SEVERAL TIMES with McNair!
We have sucked for years! That isn’t Montey’s fault. We now have a good team that we are trying to make great with flexibility for the future. I don’t want to go back to how we were so let him do what he has to get us there. We have to give Montey the respect to give him the proper time to build this team without putting our past on him as he did all that. We now have some stability, we have Monk back and we are heading in the right direction. Have a little faith. We shouldn’t make a trade just to make a trade.
So you really feel that the wizards and pelicans are just waiting for the kings? they are sold on the Kings' trade package and just said "go Monte! Look at the Utah situation and we will wait for you!"?. Honestly, it's just crazy to believe that this is the case...
The kings aren't gonna do a damn thing 😑. I hope i'm wrong though
Building back better again!
You know the saying about the early bird……….The don’r get left out of the playoffs. Stuff like this is why the Kings are never discussed on tv or are almost never seen on tv.
Monte ain’t him . Need a better GM, idk why your defending him so much , all these players will be moved before Monte even gets a clue
Preparing for the cope.
The only thing a trade will accomplish is to improve us to hosting a play-in game and mortgaging our future. Prudent path forward is to continue building through the draft instead of trading away picks
Kings are honestly better than most of the teams out west if they make a trade you’re crazy
NY, Philly, Wash, NO, Dallas, OKC way improved already!
You can only defend patience so long we’re falling in quicksand!!👎🏼
Seeing the 76ers ,knicks and Dallas starting lineups are making me sick to my stomach 🥴
All Locked On Kings does is make excuses for Monte McNair
6ers and Knicks ain’t in our conference lil bro
Monte is trash
Are you dumb ? We’re playing them regardless
Health play a part of record
Monte Mccheap
kings also have their MLE to trade, that's somewhat helpful too
While all the other teams in the west are getting better Monte McNair isn’t doing anything just as he did in Houston.
2 first rounds is the max for Ingram… they gave up 2 first rounds for Murray so im sure they will want to make those up
That’s all the picks that the Kings can offer right now anyways. They have 2 picks to trade, 2028 and 2030, they couldn’t offer more even if they wanted to.
Sounds like Sacramento needs Nico Harrison. Love your work Matt
Been saying this for a while: Lauri is the perfect fit. Tall athletic, slasher and threat from 3, much better rim protector than domas playing at the 4, he just makes too much sense. Don't know how we getting him though, unless we sell all our FRpick until 2030, there are much better trade partners out there for the Jazz (sadly).
Everybody knows he would be a perfect fit and so would a lot of other players who are unattainable. What’s your point?
@@justmyopinion8395 No, he is the best option out there. My point is there is no point in talking about him as a posible target as there is no way we get him. Thre hasn't been a way and there will not, its just feeding the hype for nothing.
Patience? Maybe analysis paralysis! Take too long over analyze everything and then anyone worth acquiring is already gone! If McNair doesn't make a significant enough move this summer, not watching much Kings basketball next season and we will need a new GM!
I'm not upset. After years and years of bad trades made just because the owner/ GM was being impatient I would prefer to see a slow and meticulous build of a team. My previous 3-year estimate was before Monte got an extension, so now he doesn't have to fear for his job and force a move.
He's also the best drafter I've ever seen for the Kings and we definitely need to keep that up.
Ingram, Markennan, or Cam J. In that order!
I don’t understand why Lauri’s trade value is so high- he’s not under contract and doubtful to re-sign with Utah if they’re a bottom dweller team
I have been more frustrated with Vivek's knee jerk impatience. I blame that (and missing on Luka) for our long draught, specially around coaching changes.
Have you considered going live?
We need to get Robin Lopez back lol
Hey lets not forget that major move they just made trading away two trade chips to Toronto for a player who averaged 3 Pts and 2 Rbds a game last season. 🤦🏼🤦🏼
Gonna wake up to ‘kings sign Doug McDermott’ 😒
Yeah, it's stupid if they give up Keegan in any deal.
I think they should do this:
Pelicans get: Kessler, Huerter, picks
Utah: Ingram, Barnes
Kings: Lauri
GS working on getting Lauri, probably aren't alone.
Utah would never do that
It’s not pelicans that want the picks. Picks would have to go to Utah, plus I don’t think Utah would want to give all that up when they probably wouldn’t even budge all that just for Lauri
More reasonable to retain Lauri would be .
Kevin heurter and 5 first round picks
*which we don’t have*
Great idea. Why did nobody else think of that? I’m sure Utah would jump on that deal before Monte changes his mind. If that doesn’t work we can always trade Huerter for Jaylen Brown.
if they got naji kept davion w ellis would of all been hard on defense add in rook
Fire monte
Waiting, waiting, waiting
You do whatever is possible on the market and with Scrooge owner not helping. All we did is "cost optimisation" - just selling players.
I’m sure that little pipsqueak chap Vivek is clutching his wallet.
Listening to the Pels LockOn video, they are looking at trading BI for Markkanen now. That's stalling a trade we might want with them. Things are changing quickly here.
Giving up the 2028 and 2030 1st round pick just so you can give Ingram a max contract is crazy. Having 3 max contracts would not only put the team into the luxury tax but above the first apron as well. On locked on Pels they are saying a minimum of 3 picks and Keegan or no deal. 😂😂😂Fan bases can be delusional about the value of their own players. Let them keep him and sign him to a max that is going to have negative value before the ink dries.
If they trade Keegan the expectation for the asset in return is west finals MINIMUM. Especially after hali these last playoffs. That’s why a trade won’t happen.
Thing is Brandon ingram is a 3 team trade lauri and kuz is a 2 team trade
I don’t know man…why not buy low on Lavine? Send them Huerter and Barns and get Lavine, Torrey Craig and a pick back…Add draft capital and get a player.
Because obviously there no way the bulls would do that.
@@justmyopinion8395 I think they would…Apparently they are trying to attach a pick to Lavine and still can’t swing a deal. Maybe those reports are way off, but I think they are desperate to get rid of him.
You make it seem like my kings got all the options and teams waiting on us.,..what if lauri get trades for Ingram and we can't get kuzma??? We goin into this season the same when everyone got better.... Let's go kings
Lauri for Ingram? I don’t think either of teams want that
@@Drewskiifadez I hope we don't but I think we gonna go into the season with the same team and these utuber gonna say at the trade deadline.....monte will say I wanna keep our flexible open while he does nothing....let's go kings
@@DrewskiifadezPelicans would jump on that quick. No way Danny Ainge would even consider it.
There is not a trade they can make that makes them contenders kings are 1 Fox/Sabonis injury from being one of the worst teams. I think they are better off trying to get a good pick in 2025 draft
You might be right I hear that draft is deep so a high pick might get you somebody nice
What are you talking about get it done ☑️ patient this is the kings 🤦♂️ we need Ingram now!
As king we trading you
I didn't order a yappacuino
All of these posts and videos are desperation! It is not the fault of our local media, they are just a tired of being in second place as the rest of us fans!
ALMOST is the key for success.
You call it patience I call it conservative
Man, we have been in Purgatory for so long! Just give up everything( picks). Just make a splash! The West keeps getting better. If we dont make a move, we will go back to being out of the playoffs.
BREAKING NEWS: No one wants what the Sacramento Kings are offering!!!
Matt loves monte & his non moves lol he can do no wrong if the kings run it back same roster he will be happy lol patience he says lol keep sleeping other teams will swoop in get Kuzma Ingram Markanenn then what we gonna say
Facts
We tried lol
DYNASTY OVER
signing monk and Len i guess that sums up all our moves for this free agency. yes its nice being patient but does they know the Sac fans have been patient for more than 2 decades of mediocrity
Monte is terrivle
Monte trying to hold on to second rounds pick for no dam reason just give up the picks.
It's all fun and games until your GM is so "patient" you miss on every player that's worth trading for and you end up missing the playoff's!! How many trades have we heard the kings be in since Monte came? How many have we missed on? ALL of them worth mentioning. The only trade he was successful on is the Sabonis one and no one even knew he was on the market. So there was no bidding war. Just think about the free agents he was "patient" on and missed on! Could have had Kuzma last summer for nothing instead of having to give up something. Again Monte couldn't/didn't close. So my question is what evidence is there to make anyone think Monte can "win" these games? In my opinion which all of this is, None!! The only trust I have in him at this moment is he can resign or trade for some none game changers like Alex Len or Durtae. I hope/pray he changes my mind this off season.
Kings need Markkanen more than Ingram
Kings get Markennan, Pels get Huerter and Kessler n picks
Utah gets Barnes and Ingram
This!
If Utah trades Markennan, they are getting a Mikal Bridges type haul.
Patience ffs
We all should get a life.
Monte isn’t going to do anything.
Focus on Ingram or Kuzma. Utah unrealistic.
Exactly!
Monte is too slow . Slower then Biden
It took Halliburton to get Sabonis. It’s going to take Murray to get established All-Star talent.
I'm a Nets fan. It didn't take much talent wise (excluding the picks) for us to give up Mikal.
I'd love for Sacramento to get Cam Johnson. Kings own all their picks, so I don't see why a trade couldn't happen 🤷♂️
So true but this guy wouldn't trade Keegan for a billion dollars lol
Dejountae was just traded for Nance and Daniels. All stars are traded for picks all the time
Monte is a doofus
@@ColdHoopsYou guys got 5 picks for Bridges. That’s a crazy robbery for an overrated Bridges. And no the Kings don’t own all their picks and even if they did how many do you expect for Cam Johnson? He is 1 protected pick at most.
The whole franchise is a disappointment to the nba and us kings fans even if we get b.i or markenan we will barely make the playoffs the west is to stacked
Lauri Markannen has played 58 games per year in 7 seasons. Another "star" that can't stay on the court
Do you know what? I believe we are not going to made a trade, but we just wait for all teams to weaking themselves by making bad trades, so we save money and still be better next season by not participating!
Poor HB!!! Being thrown around like a piece of meat!!!
He sucks so who cares
Who cares we need a upgrade over him what is Monte doing
I hate monte so much
They should go for Paolo Banchero, or Caris Levert and Donovan Mitchell
What u think about getting anthony edwards or lebron James
@@Drewskiifadez yea, Edwards would be nice, but Lebron is nearing his retirement
Or kd or wemby
@@DrewskiifadezI would hold out for Tatum. 😂
Nothing is going to happen
Say goodbye to Fox then
Sign Wiseman. A young big
Better stay patient, because we just don't have the Capitol to make any big moves, and Fox, Sabonis, Murray and Monk, aren't going anywhere.
Concurrent trade proposals:
Barnes, Lyles, Colby, Duarte, McDaniels, 28 and 30 first rounders to Utah for Lauri and John Collins.
Huerter, Devin Carter, and however many pick swaps and 2nd round picks to Washington for Kuzma
Shouldn't swear to God, it's blasphemous.
Please don't swear to God!!
Any note, do you think monte is scared to give up assets
God no, Monte isn’t scared to give up assets. Remember, he traded his prize draft selection, Tyrese Haliburton.
The owner of the kings does not want to open his wallet. McNair hands are not moving because he does not have the capability to. decide.
Exactly this! That condescending little chap gives Scrooge McDuck vibes.
