"Rudy Gay is headed to the Kings, league sources tell Yahoo Sports. He has been pulled out of the Raptors lineup for tonight"

Still finalizing info who goes back to Raptors, but 3 players significantly discussed included Hayes, Vasquez and Patterson, sources say.

Guy is a great talent, once he gets in the right system, I think he can fluorish

No. He is an extremely inefficient scorer who isn't a good defender, passer, or rebounder.

There is a reason the Grizzlies 2 most successful playoff runs were with him no longer in the lineup.

He's very overpaid and someone needs to tell him he's not a 3 point shooter, that's for sure, but he doesn't suck, coach just lets him shoot too much

They have a better Rudy Gay in Demar Derozen.

I think it's a good trade for the Kings though. It's been awhile since they had a solid wing scorer.

Cousins and Gay are going to be having fights over who can take the most contested mid-range jump shots

He can post up and get to the rim, reminds me of a 6'8" tyreke evans, he's just been in bad situations

Kings plan on using Rudy Gay as a stretch power forward & see Gay & Derrick Williams as interchangeable guarding either forward, source says"

Someone once said of Rudy Gay, that he had the potential to be the best player on a perpetual lottery team.

I can't think of any better way to sum him up. It isn't that he is without skill, or that he's a bad athlete-- but there are just some guys who are never efficient, never leaders, and who never learn how to win. That is Rudy Gay in a nutshell.

I will honestly love watching a team of:

Marcus smart/Isaiah Thomas
Mclemore/Thornton
Gay
Derrick Williams/Carl Landry
Boogie

Go at it.

Bill Simmons can't bitch about him anymore!

Seriously though, why the hell would you want him on your team? He's super inefficient and terrible at defense.

This might be better for Gay. In Memphis, who'd he have to help draw attention from him? Once the Grizz were clicking he had already been phased out of the lineup. He won't be worth the money, but it might give the Kings fans a boost in morale.

Can't wait to see the glares that Cousins will give him after he misses his 20th shot of the game.
