Drury is a clown and it once again showed. He has no idea what he’s doing in a trade, he gets smoked 9/10.
I think he could have gotten a better return. Hands tied or not, it’s still Artemi Panarin playing pretty darn close to his prime.
He only wanted LA…
Do we know this as a fact? If he only wanted LA, why did it take this long to make this sad trade?
There’s a compounding effect here that’s hard to ignore. Having screwed up so badly last year with the players has forced Drury to over correct. He probably gave Panarin too much leverage, which backed him into a corner with one team. I’m not buying that, at the onset of all this, Panarin said “only the Kings.” If there were other options, Drury had leverage.
I like the prospects for Greentree, but you can’t trade one of the best offensive threats for basically just a good/maybe very good prospect. Does anyone know if he was LA’s best trade chip?
The pattern of Drury getting underwhelming trades is pretty brutal and will likely keep the org on the same path we’ve been on for 32 years.
Greentree was definitely their #1 prospect that wasnt already playing on the Kings.
Yeah, but if teams are calling you can build a competitive market (interested parties are blind to other interested parties).

This idea doesn’t make sense that since everyone was told he wasn’t resigning the price went down. If no one knew we weren’t resigning him no one would trade for him… what am I missing ? How do you trade someone that no one knows is available? More likely, if the letter never went out teams would be calling Drury to check in on Panarin since we’re awful and he’s an expiring contract. The same result
