Analyzing the Kings

[Crow]

GM gone. Now the Coach is on clock.

Probably need to get rid of almost all the players, if they want to do more than barely make playoffs someday.

I'd try for a Bogdanovic sign and trade over paying him big.

Only positive Fox lineup used over 50 minutes was uses less than 3 minutes per game for season. Totally undisciplined and absurd. Should be over 8 minutes minimum. Pick what you think is best and give it a strong test. Then increase minutes or largely move on according to results.

Giles and Bagley have 2 worst LA-RAPM estimates on team. Retain Giles? I dunno. Depends on price of course. I'd trade Bagley but might wait 6 months.

Len is not bad, if can be re-signed at modest price.

I would assume Bazemore is gone.

I might try the deep bench at least a bit more. Probably has been avoided out of desperate desire to make playoffs; but A they weren't close and B it might not hurt or hurt much.

Will be interesting to see what new GM does with roster, play strategies. Is analytics going to have more influence? In what ways and to what impact?

Should Buddy Hield play more SF? The data from last few years isn't a large sample but he has shot very well there / much better than at SG. His overall matchup was very positive on boxscore metrics and ok at team level.
