Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

Big Name Alert

In case you've missed the discussion in the comment threads or on Twitter, Grant Napear has said on today's show on 1140 The Fan that the Kings are talking about big-name player fans will be excited about, with news of a deal possibly coming on Saturday. It's not an All-Star level player, but Napear has been adamant that it's a "big name" and that it's not a guard.

The mystery of this player's identity continues ...

(Napear usually does not speculate or drop hints without reason.)

To summarize some of what he said

1. It isn’t a guard,
2. Kings aren’t afraid to spend big money on him,
3. Sounds like a “free agent” and not a trade: “Kings are talking to him”

I think he said something about “If you can get a player who is better than the ones you have now, why not?” So I’m assuming he is starting quality.

by omikron on Dec 9, 2011 5:29 PM PST reply actions  

Correct

He said “As soon as tomorrow”, so I’m assuming it is a legitimate free agent, not an amnesty player.

The player already got dumped by his old team

and now you are offering more than any of the other teams for his services. If he’s unhappy with you, maybe he should go play overseas. Yea, it would be a nice courtesy, but if he didn’t want to be here, I don’t think I would change my decision.

After all Weber didn’t want to be here either, and that turned out pretty well.

Not like we aren't used to watching a team turn it over

This team hasn’t exactly lit the world on fire with its’ passing the last few years.

"For five decades (and counting), these fans have been blessed with West, Baylor, Wilt, Kareem, Magic, Shaq and Kobe. Seven of the 15 best players ever. At some point, the gravy train will end. The Lakers will bottom out like the Knicks did last decade, submarined by bad moves, poor signings and unlucky drafts. Their fans will flee in droves. Jack will pass away. The buzz will be gone. That's how the NBA works -- in a 30-team league, you can't always get lucky, not even if you're a big-market team with deep pockets. I don't know if that day is three years off or 30, but it's coming." Bill Simmons

Gotta Be: David West

I agree with the above speculation…And, it would be a good, hopefully value signing with him coming off of an injury……and hopefully that would mean we package JT/Salmons or JT/Garcia in a deal for back-court or SF depth.

My dream list:
1.) Marc Gasol (not officially signed yet)
2.) NeNe (neither is he…..despite rumors)
3.) David West (value sign, coming off of injury/would make us nasty up front)
4.) AK47 (would fill the SF need perfectly)
5.) DeAndre Jordan (would be awesome front court depth, and again, would hopefully usher the trade of a combo of JT and PTBNL)
6.) Jeff Green (eh)
7.) Aaron Afflalo (I would actually, love this)
8.) Kris Humpries (eh)
9.) Stuckey (eh)
10.) JJ Barea or Nick Young (could be worse)

Perfect addition, but too expensive. And think AK47 signing would be preceded by media leaks b/c his status as international player.

by bench_blob on Dec 9, 2011 6:36 PM PST up reply actions  

Good point

Prince and AK47 are same type of players. Would love to be wrong b/c the Kings can put 4 highly potent scorers on the floor at once, and at least 2 or 3 have defensive issues:

Reke
MT23
JJ
Cuz

Thats 4 scorers who would be well-complemented by a defensive stopper like AK47.

Then you have players who are not known for the defensive:

MT23
Jimmer
JJ
Cuz

AK47 would do a good job covering for their defensive mistakes.

So if he is player we add I will be psyched, could make HUGE difference if he can stay healthy, just think AK-47 may look for more established team and Maloofs have spent about as much or more than they want.

I thought I heard him say

That he wasn’t an All-Star last year, but left open the possibility that he could have been in the past. Makes me think AK47

Yeah AK47 or Peja.

Probably AK47 depending on his out with CSKA. That could be the holdup (which is understandably reasonable).

it’s unlikely that they are going to use the entire salary cap plus pay $8.5M to amnesty Salmons. In fact as long as there is a chance that they can trade everyone, they’ll pass on the Amnesty option.

AK has Jimmermania...

From here this wacky December 1 interview with AK (page 2) http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700203116/Talkin-with-Trav-Kirilenko-discusses-the-NBA-Jimmer-Mormons-and-adoption.html

Hansen: You are a free agent now. Do you stay in Russia or come back to the NBA?

Kirilenko: Before Dec. 9th I will listen to offers from the NBA. I am happy in CSKA and it will be a tough decision. Utah Jazz is in my heart and is on the priority list. I will look at everything on the table. You know here in Russia my kids are in school, the team is great and I have been playing really well. It will be a difficult decision.

Hansen: Did you follow Jimmer?

Kirilenko: Yes, I followed a little and I think he can play. You know there was all that Jimmermania going on in Utah and we all wanted him to come play for the Jazz but unfortunately he got drafted and signed for the Sacramento Kings. I wish him good luck.

Hansen: How many more years do you want to play?

Kirilenko: I would like to play three or four more years. I feel have enough juice left for that many more years at a high level. After three to four years I don’t know if I will be able to play at my highest level.

Miami “signed” Bosh and Lebron last summer. Why can’t we “sign” Chandler while sending Dallas some players to fill their wide open freshly raped sandusky anus of a roster?

And obviously minused the ones who reached a deal today. I wish that ginger would’ve been more specific but I think it makes sense that it’s probably a SF. The only big I would be cool with is Kris Humphries but I think that’s pretty unlikely. Ultimately the only signing I would truly rejoice over is probably AK-47. But I guess it would be pretty cool for Peja to finish his career where it started. Bottomline I really think its gonna be a 3.

After the Miami game, its hard to think that way

But the Raiders have shown glimpses of dominance and skill. Just need to consistently bring it for the full 60. Maybe playing the undefeated Packers will motivate them enough

Yeah, the Packers defense has been spotty at best

But they make a lot of big plays, and with Palmer as the Raiders QB I could see an interception or two, easily.

The big question is whether or not the Oakland defense can stop the Packers’ offense. And my best guess is no.

Comes down to Raiders pass D vs. Packers rush D

If the Raiders can exploit the Packers horrid rush D, and at least play at a level less than dreadful in the pass D than we could have a chance.

Yes.

But I still question how effective the Raiders’ defense can be against GB’s offense. They aren’t gonna be able to stop Aaron. That final drive against New York was almost disgusting in how perfect it was.

Immediate reactions on Twitter during last week’s game was just that 58 seconds is a long ass time for Aaron to have the ball, even with 80 yards to go and I believe 1 time out.

I'd say Aaron is slightly above average in terms of mobility

He gets some solid runs/scrambles in, but he’s obviously best when he has time to throw. It’s almost scary how good he is.

Because that’s one thing. But he kneels in prayer after every freaking play. There’s even a Bible passage that denounces public prayer, lol. But it was also the fact that he was in a Super Bowl commercial for an organization I find incredibly abhorrent and that it was even allowed to air angered me beyond belief.

Absolutely

I’m kind of funny when it comes to football. I’ve been watching all my life but never REALLY had a team until Aaron became the starter for the Packers. I’ve had an irrational hatred of Favre since I was a kid (well, it’s perfectly rational now, but it was VERY irrational back then) so I didn’t like it when Aaron went there. But I’ve been following his career, and since he’s been the starter I’ve declared myself as a pseudo-Packers fan. In other words, I jumped on the bandwagon before the championship season ;)

My dad is a Raiders fan and my brother a Niners fan which is maybe why I never aligned myself with either of those teams. I root for both, but as long as Aaron is the starting QB, I root for the Packers above all other teams.

Also, it’s a running joke between myself and Juan Primo about his man crush on Aaron ;)

Ya know, it wasn't bad growing up

Mostly because both teams sucked lol and preseason is just like…eh, who cares. Really not that cutthroat which is good.

And yeah, I jumped on the bandwagon during a 6-10 season, so I’m not as bad as those who jumped on during last year’s playoff run! Still kind of stunned they’re undefeated. And yet, considering the rest of their schedule, 16-0 is a definite possibility.

When healthy is the key word

I don’t think this team knows what healthy is. But yes, these wideouts have a load of potential. With Moore and Ford, you have two guys who can burn anyone in the open field, while DHB brings speed and strength. If only we were healthy and consistent, just like our coaching (chasm alert!!!)

FWIW

Kirilenko is a former all-star (2004). And I don’t think he and Salmons would co-exist on the same roster. Too many run-ins with Sloan, et al. over the years regarding not enough a) touches on offense and/or b) playing time.

For all his strengths (passing, overall ball-handling, willingness to pass, help-defense), he’s a worse career perimeter shooter than Salmons (37%>31%), a worse FT shooter (81%>76%) and turns the ball over more (15.4%>13.6%). Also, despite being younger than Salmons, he has more mileage (20k>18k minutes).

Therefore, while you can still make an argument, I don’t think signing AK47 is enough of an upgrade to merit his signing and the subsequent amnesty of Salmons. I’d actually instead prefer to sign Peja to a small, one year deal with more of a mentoring role involved. Now, if the alleged FA is actually one of the bigs, i.e. MGasol or Nene, that’s a whole ’nother story.

by sroufe on Dec 9, 2011 8:17 PM PST reply actions   2 recs

Good point

Salmons and AK47 are similar in terms of spotty outside shooting and solid defensive players. Minutes would be challenging to split evenly, or appease both players. And you are talking about committing $8 million to Salmons plus close to same amount to AK47? I don’t see a lot of logic to this, and it would be inconsistent with moves Geoff has made in the past.

AK47 had success at ‘4’, but Hayes and JJ are going to get a lot of minutes there. And seem a nice blend of offense and defense.

And as much as I like AK47 game, he is amazing help defender, on ball defender and finisher in open court, I somewhat question his commitment to the NBA, his desire to win and be a valuable teammate. I think the time to acquire him was 2 to 3 years ago, not now. I think we could see a steady decline in his production with his body type and inclination to injury.

For these reasons, price tag, personality and fit, Geoff will say ‘pass’.

Fit could be a problem, but I will take it
AK47 had success at ‘4’, but Hayes and JJ are going to get a lot of minutes there.

Not only has AK47 had success at the 4, but this is the position in which he thrives. Most of his struggles have come when trying to play SF in which he really is limited. If we sign AK47 then this makes the trade for Hickson terrible as Hayes should be first off of the bench with AK47 starting. For JJ to play, the Chuckwagon is now your full time backup center. He did play that in Houston, but I think that he excels more when he can play PF. This isn’t even talking about JT and how he will wither be traded for cents on the dollar or just sent to rot on the bench.

All that being said, I would be happy if the Kings signed Andrei. A dearth of talent is not a problem that the Kings have had in awhile and it is a welcome problem.

We are packed with guards and bigs, many of whom we are committed to (high picks) and and many more who need minutes to develop. (And in a Petrie world, need time grow/play into bigger trade assets… think J.J. and J.T.)

So, this leaves the SF position. And Salmons can be amnestied. Meaning that offers in the almost 20 million-ish range would not be out of the question. AK47 range. Just saying.

Oh really? lol

I might be going back to work there once finals are over! I don’t want to though haha. I worked there for almost a year before taking an academic leave because school was just too much. I said I’d come back for seasonal but I’m re-thinking it. I want a break, and I’d only come back for a couple of weeks because they’d let me go w/ the seasonal people since I can’t work during the semester. I want to come back next summer though, so I don’t wanna burn any bridges.

Who did you interview with? If you can remember. lol

Seriously!

I have 15 units, but in most grad programs 9 units is full time. So 15 grad units is a very heavy load. In the first 2 months of school, I had a grand total of 3 days off from work AND school. I went up to Tahoe for one weekend. That was it. Obviously I requested that weekend off and thankfully a couple of friends helped cover me, but it was brutal to go so long without a break.

Don't think so

Inked with Pacers until 2014 – only from the cold dead hands of Larry Bird, unless we are trading. Also, not a good fit as yet another primary scorer. Whoever it is, I suspect as you do a 3, but with more of a defensive or rebounding profile. Just a guess.

Agree, but

Agree, but rumored to be FA signing. But to quote Morrisey, “I wouldn’t say no.” Just not convinced Granger is a good basketball fit after the Chuck Hayes sign. (Padding young scorers with players who have impact off ball seems to be the strategy.) AK fits better.

Because...

Toro is right, the Maloofs are cheap. They will not go into luxury tax territory to sign AK AND keep Salmons. But even though they are cheap, they may amnesty Salmons… paying him still but not counted on cap/lux. This assumes ~20 mil need to get AK.

I just had to look up if the motor and sensory strips in the brain are bilateral. Which I knew they were, because the left hemisphere controls the right side of the body and vice versa. So each side HAS to have their own motor and sensory strips. I think I’m losing it.

Billups

I think he ends up in Boston. Good friends w/ Garnett. Fair amount of playing time (Rondo is currently the only PG on their roster). Chance to get revenge on NYK.

+ and -

+ great basketball fit (Defensive minded 3 who rebounds, can score if needed but in his head does not need to be that guy, great team player.)
- spending your cap the year before what should be a great free agent season

But I’d place the fit above holding out for next year – pretty much in this case only. Maybe the best thing about AK is that he makes everyone around him better.

by stalbaum on Dec 9, 2011 9:34 PM PST up reply actions  

I'm with you.

You have Salmons & Garcia at the 3. You have Honeycutt and Greene to back them up in case one breaks a nail at some point in the future.

I don’t understand why the Kings are going after AK. They have 4 guys who can play the 4 who are already reasonably slated for minutes at the 4 & 5. You have 2 guys slated to get minutes at the 3 whom you are not waiving with the amnesty clause.

Signing Ak47 is something I just don’t understand why the Kings would do. Especially for a large enough sum of money.

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

by pookeyguru on Dec 9, 2011 9:58 PM PST up reply actions  

Sure

if you move Salmons, that changes things a lot. I’d like Kirilenko as my starting 3 over Garcia or Greene. But what team would want Salmons – or phrased differently, what team would want Salmons’ contract?

by sroufe on Dec 9, 2011 10:10 PM PST up reply actions  

With amnesty the lowest bidder gets Salmons

So, no worries about who would take his contract. Someone will get him for the vets min or somewhat more. (See the new CBA…)

by stalbaum on Dec 9, 2011 10:12 PM PST up reply actions  

ps

Kings still pay whatever the difference is… but that salary comes off the cap/lux…

by stalbaum on Dec 9, 2011 10:14 PM PST up reply actions  

er highest bidder, my bad

but nobody is going to bid much more than 30% of his current contract to get him through amnesty..

it won't be Salmons

who goes – for his own reasons, GP wants him here. They’ll trade JT, Donte and/or Cisco before they dump Salmons … who also won’t be amnestied.

by Watty4ever on Dec 9, 2011 10:31 PM PST up reply actions  

“…Salmons … who also won’t be amnestied.”

Salmons is the most logical amnesty choice, but – as TZ discussed in an earlier story – not until after this season.

by sroufe on Dec 9, 2011 11:18 PM PST up reply actions  

Thats a whole lot of Amnesty money

John Salmons
2011/12
$8,500,000
2012/13
$8,080,000
2013/14
$7,580,000
2014/15
$7,000,000

Minus whatever % even at 50% that means 15.5 million dollar amnesty to get out of his contract…

the potential amnesty implications surrounding Salmons. I was talking about a future trade. As I mentioned above, I don’t believe Salmons and Kirilenko can or should co-exist on the roster – unless you either trade Salmons or amnesty Garcia.

Dude, that's awesome

My first job was as a ref for youth soccer. It was horrible because the parents were insane. Seriously, for games where the kids were 6 they’d be screaming in your face about missing calls. I’m just thinking to myself that these kids are more interested in the bugs in the dirt than in playing the game and you really care about the out-of-bounds call? Really?

Also, I love Friends too! First TV show I ever owned on DVD lol.

I also love 30 Rock, Futurama and Arrested Development. And The Office is still solid enough.

Kobe liked to come in whenever it was the busiest just to get all the Laker fans all riled up. He’d claim that he wanted to be inconspicuous but would roll up to the gym in his white Bentley.

Yup!

It made me feel better too that all the smack I had been talking previously was in fact true.

He would call us whenever he’d want to work out. One time it was during our school’s welcome week event and we had well over 1000 people at our gym. He decides to show up (even though we tell him he shouldn’t) and proceeds to work out in the gym, requiring 10 of us managers to create a fan perimeter.

It was incredibly annoying. I’m sure I ended up on many FB pages with a scowl on my face that night.

He also works out and grunts in a weird language. Very strange. And he would refuse to sign anything for us to give to fans. Carmelo Anthony did though!

Weird.

One of my best friends has an uncle who apparently used to live in the same neighborhood as Kobe. She told me this story once…

I guess her aunt’s mother was visiting them and she’s pretty frail. So her aunt arranged for the people from her nail salon to come to the house and give her mother a manicure. Just a small thing, for an old woman who was sick and frail. Apparently Kobe’s wife goes to the same salon and threw a fit when they wouldn’t bend the rules and make a house call to her too.

I think it's both

Because LA is a desirable place to live for a lot of people. Not me, because I’m not into big cities and I like having seasons, but I can see why others would want to live there. Nice weather year round, obviously a million things to do. But LA also has a huge population and as such they make so much money. Bandwagon fans and all that. New York has a lot of similarities, except the storied franchise. Which is why that’s so huge, but there are other huge advantages to being located in LA.

Let’s try to deduce what starter or reserve the Kings could use that is not a point guard. Shooting guard does not appear to be a possibility. A starting small forward would have to be clearly better than Salmons. Grant Hill appears to be the only option there. A center or power forward would have to be clearly better than one of Cousins, Hayes or Hickson. Nene or Mark Gasol are possibilities. As for the 16 minute backups we don’t need a shooting guard, it is hard to think of a backup that would be better than Cousins, Hayes and Hickson. Perhaps it is a small forward backup or time sharer like AK47.

Otherwise I have either overlooked someone or this positive addition would be a backup who will only see significant time if there is an injury. My guesses are Hill, Nene, Mark Gasol, AK47 or a backup who will have significant minutes only if there is an injury.

FYI, I looked at the salaries being paid free agents who have been signed, and, by that standard, the contracts of Thornton and Hayes look good.

That's the question.

Because I know that team were allowed to talk to their players and agents, including I think, other player’s agents. If an offer could be made to a RFA like Gasol before Friday, the three day time period could be up on Saturday, which is the time period that Grant gave.

But since it was allegedly forbidden to make and accept specific offers until today, my guess is that the three-day wait period starts today if an offer was indeed made.

No this is not possible.

They had to extend a QO before June 30th to keep Gasol RFA.

Now it’s possible the Grizz offered a contract to Gasol today, but certainly not a QO. If Gasol was being offered a QO today, he’d be an unrestricted FA.

Actually..

…what it mighta have been is a maximum qualifying offer but even then that has to be offered by June 30th. Doesn’t make much sense to allow a team to offer a maximum qualifying offer (which the Grizz can’t offer to Gasol anyway) if you didn’t offer it by June 30th if you are the NBA.

So Peaches says, "Team made a great offer...now let's wait and see."

When I think of a great offer, I think of a big free agent. If you’re going for Peja…how can you refer to an offer as “great”. Wait and see, even if it’s Saturday could still apply to an RFA…who are using the Kings to get the max. Maybe the reason for the waiting is for Gasoline to ask Memphis to match it.

Mine's stress

My bed is super comfortable. But this semester has just been brutal. I had a period of about 3 weeks where I literally broke down sobbing every night. I wish I was exaggerating too. It was bad. My whole program was a mess. We weren’t able to sleep, or eat. People were getting physically sick from the stress and several of us (including myself) noticed that our hair was literally falling out. It was horrible.

So yeah, my insomnia started then. Hasn’t gone away since.

It’s not like he could help it, but it was awful. She was amazing with him though, so I’ve already told her I’ll buy her a beer when we go out to celebrate finals being over next week lol

I’ve always been a night owl, even as kid, but my program doesn’t make it any easier. I’ve been in it for a year and a half now and have seen people’s hair start to turn gray from the stress.

Everyone in my program is super competitive since we’re all trying to get into med school and since no one wants to be the one to fall behind, we’ve been driving ourselves crazy with non-stop studying. This semester has been awful though, I’m completely burnt out.

When I was a few years younger, over summer I’d go to bed around midnight or 1 and wake up at like 10 when work didn’t conflict. It was great. But now I try to go to bed early and just can’t sleep. I need to get some medication of some kind if it doesn’t get better over winter break.

Not really

I played in elementary school rec leagues lol. Didn’t even try out in junior high. I was tall, but I’m a pretty reserved person. Even more so in junior high. I was extremely shy and awkward and the thought of playing basketball on a competitive team freaked me out lol. Not exactly a good characteristic in a potential athlete.

Apparently I just missed that competitive gene. My older brother played basketball until he blew out his ACL in his senior year and my younger sister played volleyball for four years, basketball for two (including being on varsity as a sophomore) and jumped for track all four years.

We were all thinking Kirilenko for a while

There was a tweet that claimed his agent knew nothing about talks though. He seemed like a good guess and I think he’s still a possibility.

Napear tweeted something about an offer being made and now we wait and see. This makes me think we made an offer on Marc Gasol, though he’s a restricted free agent and as such Memphis can match any offer he receives. I honestly can’t think of a scenario where Memphis lets Gasol go, but it’s possible.

There’s also talk about Peja. This wouldn’t be a “big name” in the typical sense, but he’s always been a fan favorite, and frankly it would be pretty awesome if he could end his career where he started it. I’d be good with this, but the hype would have been way over the top, obviously.

OK here is my solar plexus shoot-from-the-hip ultra-cynical guesstimation of just who might

that be and why. But first the why:

The Maloofs, as we all know, are fame hounds to the nth degree. We also know all too well that their “fortunes” have fallen in the last few years to the point that Adrienne and hubby, Los Angeles and environs Plastic Surgeon Paul Nassif appeared in the Wives of Beverly Hills where both Kingsmen, Gavin and Joe Maloof, made weird ass cameo appearances at a patio party. To her credit, Adrienne and that British wife were the sanest of the bunch. I’m sure the Maloof bros made sure of that. Paul also appeared on a recent episode of Dr. Oz where he “dontated” his comsetic services to a troubled six-foot hermaphrodite trying to improve “her” feminine charms. At any rate, Adrienne’s appearance seemed to be a way both to keep her hubby and her brothers in the limelight. After all, most plastic surgery is cosmetic, and therefore elective and not covered by health insurance except in rare instances.

As a way to further milk the cable medium for additional exposure, what better way to do that than for the Maloofs to sign an NBA player who already has a cable reality show which also features his wife, who also appears in a cable reality show of some note.

Therefore I say the Kings will try to get Lamar Odom to piggy back off his exposure on the reality show “Khloe and Lamar”. Khloe is reportedly “Ok” with a move if Lamar is traded. But has she ever set foot in Louisianna? Methinks Sacramento would be if not more to her liking then at least the commute would not be as daunting.

AK47

Just read an alleged tweet from Jason Jones saying the search is for Kirlenko (sp?), one of my three guesses. An average maybe above average starting small forward, about as good as Salmon. If Fredette plays well and the Kings get another back up point guard, they will have no weak spots. They will be in the playoffs unless the chemistry is bad. Cousins and Evans will be the top rank players with Fredette and Thornton as obvious possible top ten or better players
Everyday Guards: Evans, Fredette, Thornton
Everyday Small Forwards: Kirlenko, Salmons
Everyday big men: Cousins, Hayes, Hickson, Thompson
Backups: Garcia,Greene, Honeycutt, Thomas, Whiteside
14 players.

by Carlji on Dec 10, 2011 3:16 PM PST reply actions  

Disagree that he is average

He’s a gamechanger on the defensive end and can guard pretty much every position on the floor. I think hes exactly what we need in our starting small forward; an outstanding defender and someone who doesnt take shots away from our main scorers, Evans/Thornton/Cousins/Hickson/Fredette. He’ll also bring 10 years of NBA experience. I think even our guys we call veterans (Garcia, Salmons, Hayes) could benefit from AK47’s presence.

The question I have is with his health, as he’s averaged 63 games per season for the last 3 years and recently suffered this head injury while playing in Russia…
