00:00In a sign in trade, DeMar DeRozan is now a member of the Sacramento Kings.
00:09He was introduced inside the Golden One Center during the California Classics, some early
00:14NBA Summer League action, if you will.
00:17Over the weekend, DeMar DeRozan now joins that team in Sacramento with the Kings.
00:23De'Aaron Fox, DeMontis Sabonis, Devin Carter, who they drafted early, Keegan Murray as well.
00:29A Kings team, DRS, that has been a playoff contender the last few years.
00:35The addition of DeMar DeRozan should only be a positive.
00:38No, it is.
00:39And also, all you're looking for is, if you have as an organization, right, your only
00:43goal is to what, Ben?
00:44Give your fan base something to believe in for the next season.
00:47Did you get better over this offseason?
00:49And it doesn't always have to equate to, well, we didn't do enough to win a championship,
00:53why should we even fight at this point?
00:54I like this move for DeMar DeRozan, and you didn't get him at one of those max deals like,
00:58hey, man, four years, $200 million.
01:00You got him relatively cheap.
01:01And also, when you take a look at that team, he's not coming there to play defense.
01:05He's coming there for that mid-range game.
01:07You got three-point shooters.
01:08You got guys that can get up and down the court.
01:09It's a nice fit into that starting lineup that gives you a formidable starting five.
01:14So as a Kings fan, you should love this move.
01:17Is it going to equate to a championship?
01:19Probably not.
01:20But that's not the goal.
01:21Make your team better every offseason.
01:22The Kings definitely got better with that move here, Ben.
