Follow us: @jilladge, @damienbarling, @beheardplatform

Kings don't match Atlanta's 4 year, $72 million offer and Bogi is headed to Atlanta.

The reaction to this is NEAR universal.

Why didn't the match and try to trade him later.

Jill feels one way, Damien feel another.

How would the reaction be different if we hadn't heard about the Bucks trade?

Does that make losing him for nothing more difficult?

How's Buddy reacting? Exactly as you'd expect!

What's next?

Monte's next move is a huge one and Kings fans will be watching very closely.

Hassan Whiteside to the Kings?

The draft is in the books and the Bogi to Bucks deal is dead. What in the world happened? Could he wind up back with the KIngs? Tyrese Haliburton is the newest member of the Sacramento Kings. Why he's the perfect fit for this team. Some thoughts on Robert Woodard and Jahmius Ramsey. The theme of Monte McNairs picks. What to expect in free agency. We try to get Tony to reveal his first name. This is a great conversation we're positive you're gonna enjoy.
