Cowbell Kingdom Podcast Ep 5: Sam Amick, Sports Illustrated

With the NBA Draft just one week away, we’re ramping up the podcast schedule.  How will it all play out before the Kings make their selection with the seventh overall pick?   To sort through all the draft chatter we’re hearing, we welcomed Sports Illustrated’s Sam Amick to the show.

Highlights

• On Leonard: “The personality and the life story, that’s part of why he’s moving up the board because he’s got an ego in a sense that he’s confident about himself, but he’s not a young guy that’s going to come in saying that ‘man I can’t wait to get my 12, 13 shots.’  He just wants to fit in, work hard and be a good NBA player.”
• On Kings scouting: “I was told that three different members – Geoff Petrie, Wayne Cooper & Shareef Abdur-Rahim I think it was, had all made separate trips to see Jan Vesley, which I think tells you something (about their interest).  But there’s similar stories about Kawhi.”
• And as far as Brandon Knight working out against JimmerFredette & Kemba Walker before next Thursday?  Sam doesn’t see it happening

Tune-in after the jump.
