A play on words to describe Domantas Sabonis or what essentially translates to Domino’s Pizza in Latin… you decide! As the fallout dust settles from a wild trading deadline (and that’s just in New Jersey and Philly!), a lot of focus on the winners and losers has been discussed, pontificated, bantered, repartee’d? Repartaid? Reparty? Whatever, you get the point… maybe. And while there’s plenty of analysis of the players, generally it’s within the scope of the trade itself and lends itself to being contextually trapped. This statement probably makes way more sense in my head, so a prime example of what I’m speaking of is embodied best by Domantas Sabonis, newly acquired by the Kings in what is probably one of the more questionable trades last week. In a deal that also included Jeremy Lamb and Justin Holiday, the overall conclusion was that the Pacers came away with not just the best return, but the best player as well. Don’t get me wrong, I’m on the Tyrese Hailburton hype train as much as anyone, but the acquisition of Domas Sabonis might just be exactly what Sabonis and the Kings needed…
Please, blog, may I have some more?
