    Random mediocre to God-awful PAST Kings players thread

    Great calls. I remember the year we opened the season in Los Angeles against the Clippers and Randy Breuer was our starting center. The horror.

    if the kings land a top 3 pick in the draft

    The title of the thread and the very first sentence of my post should have been some kind of indicator as to what we're talking about here.

    if the kings land a top 3 pick in the draft

    If we somehow landed one of the top three, my wish list would look something like this: 1. L. Aldridge 2. R. Gay 3. A. Morrison

    Maloof Bro On Espn News

    The deal sounds done. They said that they are going to put the negative aspects of Artest behind them and move forward with Artest. Coupled with the fact that they are saying they can't discuss anything "yet", it certainly sounds like a done deal at this point.

    Are the Warriors Better Than the Kings

    I can't argue with Peja or Miller owning Dunleavy and Foyle, but there is no way that Shareef owns Murphy. Murphy puts up more points and rebounds while turning the ball over less. At best, Shareef and Murphy cancel each other out. I think what separates Golden State from Sacramento thus...

    Hypothetical Roster Question

    You're exactly right about it boiling down to what's the best we can get. I guess I should have phrased the question more specifically. We all would take a KG, a Lebron, or a Kobe in a deal for Peja. What I meant to ask everyone was, what do you think other teams will offer for Peja, and what...

    Hypothetical Roster Question

    Reading through a lot of the threads, there seems to be a fair amount of dissatisfaction with Peja's play this year. STRICTLY HYPOTHETICALLY SPEAKING, if for some reason Petrie saw it fit to try to deal Peja, who do you think we could get for him? In other words, what would be fair value for...

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    I think the problem is that all of the coaches who are superior to Adelman are already employed by other pro and college basketball teams as either head coaches or assistant coaches. To fire Adelman mid-season would be equivalent to giving up on this season, as any interim coach probably could...

    Sacramento was favored in the series, had home court advantage by virture of their better record in the regular season, and was a 2 point favorite heading into game 7 of the series. So they did lose when they were the better team. (I apologize for not having a link for the odds on the series...

    Those were very nice wins, can't deny it. But they didn't get enough of them. Championship teams close the deal; they finish series. Sacramento couldn't do it that year. It just supports the idea that Adelman, while being a good coach, is not a championship caliber coach. And sometimes...

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    I did read through your post. The question wasn't posed because I neglected to see the line where you said that perhaps it would be time to make a move if the team had not improved by the all-star break, it was posed because of it. The "perhaps" suggested that you might do it, so I was merely...

    This is a much better post than saying "making changes just to make them=bad idea." This isn't a disgusting Lakers board, so you'll have to excuse me if I hold everyone here to a higher standard. God knows I get my fill of inane, empty headed basketball discussion while down here in SoCal...

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    I agree with you on this point. If people want to fire Adelman solely because of the team's performance in these first two games, then it is way too early to be making that kind of assessment. Two games does not a season make. I'm curious though, if for some reason (and I don't believe this...

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    Responding to posts without reading them=bad idea. I am very clearly citing the reasons why I think we need a coaching change. I am not simply advocating change for the sake of change. I respect and can appreciate the validity of the posts that are opposing mine, as long as they have also...

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    I think everyone would rather the Kings win the majority of their games rather than losing them. I'm always happy when the Kings win, and I loved the 2 year stretch when they were at the top of their game. However, I do think a coach with a different mentality would be able to get more out of...

    As old as my refrain seems to you, yours seems the same way to me. But you are right, we will have to agree to disagree. Not everyone sees everything the same way. This forum would be very boring if it were otherwise.

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying. If reaching 50 regular season wins and seeing an above average product on the floor is what you want out of your team, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with Adelman. Like I said before, there are quite a few other teams in the league that would...

    The one AND ONLY "Fire Adelman" thread for 05-06

    I have to admit that there is a lot of validity in what you say. Personnel does dictate what you can and cannot do on the court. However, I would still like to see some sort of commitment to defense and a tougher mindset. I realize that those qualities are not the strong point of our current...
