    Loved the pick of Buddy. Stood by him when people were talking about Jamal Murray shoulda been the pick. Was defending him when the idiots came round after the Rising Stars game...

    You don't pass on Cousins for Hield. If Hield turns into an elite player, then it was a win-win trade for both parties.

    Should have pushed moving Holiday instead of Hield.

    Good for him. Not surprised he is coming into his own more.

    He was on an upward trajectory all season, though his recent output is particularly impressive: 51% FG and 50% 3P since joining the Kings.

    This is exactly what I think too and I actually hope he becomes an elite player

    This trade was an obvious confidence booster for him. They traded an All star player to get him.

    Don't fall for that B.S. Unless it's a top team G1 has plenty of empty seats. I'm a season ticket holder and those commies at the box office are full of {edited - veiled cursing not allowed} . I forgot I had tonight's game and listed them on the nba resale site. I lowered those {edited - veiled cursing not allowed} all the way down to $8 snaps each and no one bit. I have good seats for being in the 2nd level(row b) I'm not salty about that just that they lie about demand and pump up the sales figures. Next year you will be able to get seats for the price of a pack of goobers.

    Can we trade Champ for you? We'll even throw in a pack of goobers as a filler.

    Sure it was . It gave him more playing time out of the Gentry system.

    Buddy is getting regular playing time, which is something we all were calling for here. He is not going to learn by playing a few minutes in the 1st and then not seeing the court again until a few minutes in the 3rd. Gentry is just a pathetic excuse for a head coach.

    Increased production. That is what he needed.




    Like Evans, Hield is showing improved production since moving from New Orleans to Sacramento. In 10 games in the Capital City, he is averaging 14.2 points per contest, an increase of about 5.6 points. Like Evans, Buddy Fresh has found his role in coach Dave Joerger's offense and is capitalizing on the shot opportunities presented to him.

    The Bahamian rookie is shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 49 percent from long distance, both better than his shooting numbers in New Orleans by double-digits. His effective field goal percentage balloons to 63.6 percent. To put this into context, if he averaged this number for the entirety of the season, he would be fifth best in the NBA. The same number would be second-best League-wide the past five seasons.

    With the chance to be a primary ball-handler in Sacramento, he faces a different role than the one he had in New Orleans, where he deferred to traditional point guards. No. 24 is thriving and his game is benefitting from his increased confidence and aggressiveness with the ball. His usage percentage has increased, he is drawing more personal fouls and consequently, earning more trips to the free throw line. Not only does this put opposing defenders into foul trouble, it allows him to take advantage of his excellent free throw percentage

    It sucks that you guys made a Buddy Hield appreciation thread after only a 1/2 season here, and no love for Tyreke Evans after 3 1/2 seasons. He was probably the most under appreciated Pelican player especially on this board.
