10. Sacramento Kings
BOOGIE!!! DeMarcus “Boogie” Cousins is one of the NBA’s best players, and having Rajon Rondo setting him up will only enhance his level of play. Rudy Gay is a highlight reel waiting to happen, and Ben McLemore is good for some high flying dunks from time to time.
Head coach George Karl’s offense will push the tempo, and backup point guard Darren Collison will benefit from this change in pace and hopefully Marco Belinelli and Caron Butler can provide three-point production, which the Kings have been severely lacking recently. Threes, dunks, Boogie…sounds like a fun team to me!
(It’s not like I’m a Kings fan or anything … shhhh, that’s a secret)
