After years of justifiably spewing vitriol towards our former GM, Kings fans should realize that Pete D’Alessandro may have actually been better at his job than our beloved Vlade Divac. While Pete was sneaky, took things personally, and broke Kings fans hearts multiple times, this current front office is doing many of the same things, with less of a coherent plan.
There is a lot of emotional baggage attached to each General Manager of the Kings. Petey D. is known for foolishly firing Mike Malone and giving away future All-Star, and fan favorite, Isaiah Thomas while Vlade has been remembered for his stellar play in Sacramento and his goofy, yet honest personality.
