Can’t even opt to tank at this point

It’s conceivable that the Kings could even go winless the rest of the season (they won’t) and still make the play-in at #10 by default because the Mavs are essentially a G-League team due to injuries/Nico and Portland is too far back.

The most likely outcome is that the season ends with an extremely painful last few weeks that kills all remaining morale and good will, leads to a play-in loss to Phoenix, loses our protected draft pick, Monte gets fired, Doug gets fired, Domas asks out, and results in some half-assed rebuild, leaving us mired in mediocrity for the foreseeable future.

Happy Saturday.
