Then he shouldnt be out there hurting the team, no excuses for lack of effort IMO.
Yeah, it's all WCS's fault. :rolleyes:

I'm sorry, but I think some people around here - and I'm speaking in general terms - are way too quick to try to find ONE scapegoat for what's happening on the court. What's hapening is the team is w/o the superstar who carried most of the load. They are learning to play without him on the fly, and it's gonna take a while. To dump on WCS or Ben or anybody else at this point is just silly IMHO.

Where you a Kings fan before the golden years? You saw this kind of stuff all the time, but worse. Players didn't even try. They looked like guys serving detention and having to play basketball instead of having to sit in the library. At least these kids try. They just aren't gonna compete successfully with established teams right now.

Time to lock up those overreaction optimism threads that popped up after the Nuggets game?

This is the team, folks. Onward to the draft. Maybe with a little luck we can get a prospect who, in 3-5 years time, will develop into half the player Cuz is!

Fingers crossed.
Trade away your already superstar for the chance to maybe pick a guy who could be even half as impactful. Hated the thought of it, hated it when it happened, still hate it now.

The rest of the season is going to be an emotional roller coaster. I can't speak for anyone else, but I know myself well enough to know I'll be super happy when the Kings win and play well and I'll try desperately not to get too depressed when they play like who they really are. Now more than ever, being a Kings fan is not for the faint of heart.

Funny to listen to Grant trying to make excuses, however.

I just want Skal to shoot the ball every time down the court. He's the only guy I'm really excited about. For every great WCS game, he has these duds. Not that I think he'll be a bust, he's just never going to be a star.
 
I love my Kings fans but the cowbells and the word 'kangs'..

This may be a long rebuild.....

WCS, that motor, we need to get to be a consistent positive. He has showed the skills. Skills need to override motor, and I think they will

Confident in most the rest of our young players.

Koufos and the bunnies.. Collison not upping his game to focal leader..

At least I'm less fearful of losing that pick
