Quick Glance: Kings-Warriors: Coach Kerr Endorses NBA Play-In
- Coach Steve Kerr supports the NBA play-in tournament for adding excitement to the season.
- The play-in format provided a lifeline for the Kings and Warriors, who wouldn't have made the playoffs in the old system.
- The Kings face challenges due to injuries to key players, while Coach Brown praises the Warriors' core players.
- Brown highlights the impact of Chris Paul and his greatness in the NBA.

Quick Glance: Potential Trade Moves for Sacramento Kings Post Stagnation
- After a promising season, the Kings' playoff debut ended after just one season. Despite similar performance to the previous year, altered expectations led to disappointment. The Kings find themselves stuck in the NBA's Maddening Middle, where progress is painstaking, exhilaration fleeting.
- The Kings have a solid foundation with emerging players like Fox, Sabonis, and Murray. Despite missing the play-in, the core for a strong playoff team is in place. The challenge now lies in making the leap from good to great, meeting high expectations, and navigating the competitive Western Conference.
- Despite a promising season, the Kings were not as dominant as before. Improvements in defense and offensive challenges shaped their course. Sacramento needs patience and strategic decisions to thrive in the tough Western Conference, make the next step, and stay competitive.

Quick Glance: Bringing Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is Wrong | Opinion
- Sports radio personality David Weiglein, known as 'Carmichael Dave', opposes the temporary relocation of the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento by Kings owner Vivek Ranadive.
- Weiglein argues that bringing the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is wrong due to owner John Fisher being considered one of the worst in sports and advocates for the A's to remain in Oakland.
- He cautions that Sacramento would receive a bad reputation as game attendance might dwindle after the initial novelty wears off, leaving loyal fans feeling duped.
- Weiglein draws a parallel to the heroic story of saving the Sacramento Kings from moving to Seattle, emphasizing his refusal to engage with an owner like Fisher.
