Do you buy a Sabonis/Holmes front court? I think that’s going to be pretty hard to make work. And what happens to Barnes now? Sacto was getting the best from him at the 4. I’m expecting at least one more move in that front court.

Defensively I think Holmes is a much better fit than KP and maybe even Turner. Holmes has a fairly high block percentage, the bulk to guard the big boys (which KP doesn’t) and more ability to defend the perimeter than Turner. I’m not overly worried about the O. Sabonis is a good passer and Holmes moves well without the ball, is good in the PNR and has a fantastic floater game.
Reading some tree leaves… Richaun Holmes to Dallas sounds like a real possibility!

Let’s do the deal halfway through their game and pull Barnes off the floor to let him know he was just traded. If we end up with Holmes plus for KP, I’ll be happy to say I was wrong (or Sac made another Sac-like trade).

It'd be pretty funny if they ended up trading FOR Barnes during the middle of a Mavs game.

Said overheard a trade that hadn’t been announced yet

Then took note of the tweet that Holmes isn’t active.

Bagley isn’t active either but I believe he’s been dealing with an injury
If it is KP, Holmes plus Bagley is a little short. Sacramento would need to add a non-Indy player like Mo Harkless (Duffy) or T. Davis. Sac has two small TPE’s that would hold S. Brown and M. Brown. So, easy 3 for 3 deal. Harkless is playing tonight. Holmes, Davis and Bagley are not (Davis with wrist surgery and is out for 3 months).
Please note Gallo. Please not Gallo. Please not Gallo.
I know people like Barnes + Holmes most, because it´s the most immediate player value, but I´d rather have Holmes + Bagley and their 2022 1st round pick.
I think they are delusional enough to genuinely believe they have some big run in them. At 2.5 games behind the Pelicans, I´m not convinced, they´d make the play-in, even adding Sabonis and Porzingis.
Just give me the Kings pick top 2 protected, watch them finished 10th, move up to #3 and we take Jaden Ivey.
