This is, admittedly, a loaded question. It’s a question that doesn’t have an answer just yet. Vivek Ranadive has had his fair share of ups and downs as an NBA owner, and last season was absolutely brutal on multiple levels, but it is starting to feel like things are headed in the right direction.
The 6’11, 270 pound elephant in the room is still the key to all of this. DeMarcus Cousins frustration level, and the Kings ability to rebuild whatever goodwill they ruined, will be the most important factor in regards to the Kings success next season.
