Vivek Ranadivé's early tenure as owner of the Sacramento Kings has been many things, but patient has not been one of them. Sacramento's moves in the last few years have been impulsive, reactionary and shortsighted. It's caused the Kings to give away All-Star talent for no return and fire coaches on a whim. We've seen draft picks mortgaged to try to get salary cap space to land big name free agents that don't want to come to Sacramento.
This summer has been different. The moves that the Kings have made so far have not been flashy, and most of them have been made with an eye on the future.
