Ever since becoming the Kings General Manager just over a couple weeks ago, Pete D'Alessandro has not been afraid to speak his mind.

He recently spoke with the Bee's Ailene Voisin where they touched on the Tyreke Evans trade as well as the hole at Small Forward.

On Tyreke Evans:

On Small Forward:

I know Kings fans are going to be very underwhelmed by this second quote. Another stopgap solution at Small Forward? Will it ever end?

The Kings did try to swing for the fences on a Small Forward earlier this week by making a big offer to Iguodala, which they then rescinded when he hesitated to accept the offer and seemingly used it as leverage. According to Sam Amick, Iguodala's preference would be to go to Golden State:

Of the rest, there are a few options that could fit D'Alessandro's description, in no particular order:

1. Dorell Wright, 27 years old, .367 career 3P%

2. Carlos Delfino 31 years old, .365 career 3P%

3. Austin Daye, 25 years old, .356 career 3P%

4. Omri Casspi, 25 years old, .353 career 3P%

5. Chris Copeland, 29 years old, .429 career 3P%

That's not a very inspiring list. Other options would be to get someone temporarily in a trade.

I'm fine with a stopgap as long as there is a long term plan and I think there is. There's nobody out there (aside from Iguodala, who is now heading to the Warriors for less money than both the Kings and Nuggets were offering) that I'd really want to commit to long term.

A stopgap option allows Sacramento to keep its flexibility for the future, so that the Kings can one day finally acquire a quality Small Forward for the future, whether it be by trade, signing or in the draft.
