| 0:00.0 | Our fourth of five episodes this week here, and we've been making our way meandering, if you will, through all these great mailbag questions because there are so many good ones. |
| 0:12.7 | We decided to elongate things a little bit. |
| 0:15.8 | Also got some news to get to and want to talk about Cooper Flags 40 point game, the highest scoring effort ever for an 18 year old. |
| 0:24.8 | And anytime the top four seeds in the West get together, we got to talk about it. |
| 0:30.8 | Rockets Nuggets was under the radar because it was between cup games. |
| 0:34.8 | But we definitely wanted to go back and check that one out. So let's begin, |
| 0:39.6 | Danny, with the Sacramento Kings. The Kings are 6 and 20 on the season. Not good for |
| 0:47.5 | somebody who picked their over. Two and sevens since the last 1560. Second worst in net rating |
| 0:53.0 | negative 11.5, 29th on offense, 27th on defense. |
| 0:57.4 | BPI projects them to win 25 games, which is the third worst record in the West, and they |
| 1:02.7 | predicts that they have a zero percent chance of making the playoffs. |
| 1:05.9 | We could start with this question from Robert will sacramento's ownership accept an intentional rebuild |
| 1:12.7 | rather than one through ineptitude it's always it's always hard when you know they haven't |
| 1:17.8 | necessarily had the opportunity but generally like from my read on vivac ronde devae is that he |
| 1:24.7 | probably wouldn't now that where the rubber meets the road there is |
| 1:29.2 | probably De Montes-Svonis, where it's basically like, are they willing to entertain a trade on him? |
| 1:33.9 | Because Levine, you know, I guess you could say if they trade Levine and there's been rumor of some |
| 1:38.7 | potential interest there. And so Levine, I think they could potentially move. But Sabonis, my inclination is that unless he kind of |
| 1:48.3 | forces his, pushes his way out the way that Deerrin Fox did, my inclination right now would be that |
| 1:53.9 | they won't. Now, I really hope I'm wrong because Sacramento would be much better off if they could |
| 1:58.5 | kind of move more firmly in a direction, |
| 2:01.0 | try to maximize their draft equity, all that type of stuff. |
