I guess this confirms Udoka's official nickname

Naw, I'm gonna enjoy shouting "Plan B for three!!!"

Desmond Mason -
You’ve been cut by both the OKC Thunder and the Sacramento Kings. What are you going to do next?

if you type width=“300” or some number in the img tag after the src=“location” bit, you can make it smaller. It should scale the height automatically.

Thanks
I am very technically stupid (though I’m a good driver – 2 and 2 is 4, 2 and 2 is 4), but I’ll give it a try.

wow
I kind of thought he would be great down the stretch on defense, but i guess Casspi will be taking his minutes
We started sucking last night
When we put him on the floor for defense. It allowed them to completely ignored him on offense and have Bibby double on Kevin.

In fairness
he was put in because we had started sucking and Joe Johnson was destroying us. Of course, it turns out Mason couldn’t do anything about that either and was useless on offense, but we were well on our way to losing when Mason got in.
Professional Hyperbole Slayer
Agreed.
The Hawks were simply better in the 4th. And Tyreke really needs to stop chucking so much. He hit a few early on, and I think he was discouraged a bit by all the blocks the Hawks were getting on him, but if I’m guarding Tyreke, I’m going to let him shoot as many jumpers as I can.

Criteria for cutting and adding players
Must be able to score from farther than 3 inches from the rim.
If it wasn’t already over then having Bibby covering Mason, and then leaving him to double Evans or just about anybody else, last night should have done it.
Quagmire: Sooooo Peter, what are you gonna do about that wart?
Peter: Wart? What wart? Aww crap! How am I ever going to be a hand model with this thing on my knuckle? This is more awkward than that time I became Geoff Petrie, signed an average wing player on a team full of wing players, played him in about 10 games, signed another wing player who was marginally better than him, then waived him.

And Paul Westphal is officially the last person to realize Mason's done.
Dip til I rip
http://reclaimingthetitle.wordpress.com
he is making the case to Geoff as we speak that
Mason needs to be signed as an assistant coach so he can teach the players to have a great +/-
statistic without being able to actually do anything in an NBA game
Another flaw in the human character is that everybody wants to build and nobody wants to do maintenance. Vonnegut

That was fast.
At least the Udoka signing makes more sense now. I would imagine Udoka will be around long enough to last a few games into Garcia’s return.
Excuse my ignorance
but for me and anyone else that doesn’t know
How does this work salary-wise again? Do we still have to pay the remainder of his 1 year deal, or are we on the hook for the difference between that value and whatever he negotiates with whatever team picks him up, if any?
It was unguaranteed
So we don’t owe him anything else. Just what we’ve paid him so far. Which is probably more than most of us will make this year.

Does this mean we are going to sign a good team PG next?

I wish the guy the best
I didn’t like him n the floor, think he was/is an incurably incomplete player but I wish him no ill and will not pile on.

Remembering Desmond Mason
It’s difficult to generate any genuine feelings for the guy. He was barely here and now he’s gone. This is like trying to feel bad for the extra that gets killed off in the first two minutes of an old Star Trek episode.

I always have warm feelings for any King's player
as long as they leave on good terms and don’t bash the team. Westphal said Mason was a professional and nothing he did here would cause me to think otherwise. I do think his days as a professional basketball player, at least in the NBA are over and I wish him nothing but the best in whatever he does next. And while my feelings for Mason are warm, due to his limited time here, they aren’t particularly strong.

From starting one week
to being cut the next. Only in Sacramento. I definitely saw this coming.

Finally all is good in the world…Fucking Kevin Martin
Love it.

at least someone saw it
honestly can ,we as Kings fans, HAVE ONE FUCKING GOOD DAY….
I don't understand why he was signed in the first place.
Desmond Mason sucks, there’s no other way to put it. He’s a waste of a roster space for the Kings.

They were hoping he'd provide a veteran presence ER
I’m not saying that’s right. I’m just saying that’s what they did it for. I think the reason they targeted Mason was because Westphal knew him from his days in Seattle.
When Mason couldn’t score well enough, that was all she wrote. I guess they were hoping he could provide more on that end than he could.
But, by the same token, are you going to tell me that Ime Udoka is a magical upgrade? Sure, only if he shoots better.

Did Sacramento look at the numbers?
Desmond is bad. The Thunder let him go for a reason.

I don't know & I don't care
I never expected Mason to be a long term solution anyway. If Udoka comes in and does everything they were hoping Mason would have done, I can live with that.

Because Anthony Johnson was already under contract with the Magic?

I won't vouch for the level of play,
but part of my season tickets paid this man on two separate occasions. On the other hand, he does provide a nice counter argument to anyone that says that GP never drafted a viable NBA player in the 2nd round (along with Fundy, the Animal and Tyus Edney, to name a few).
