Someone, make this stop...Wiggins, Parker, Randle...free agent...Mclemore...someone please stop the bleeding, the terrible bleeding....

 

[SDkings82]

Put Bmac And Outlaw In The Starting Lineup. MT Is Completely Useless Unless He Is Hitting Shots So Put Him On The Bench. Salmons Actually Can Handle The Ball So Maybe That Would Take Some Pressure Off Of IT To Have To Handle The Ball And Be The Primary scorer

 

[HndsmCelt]

Jimmer's ball handling is at an elite PG level, the excuses regarding his game are all lies. Just lies, that's all. Jimmer's handle has improved tremendously and his supposed lack of handle has always been exaggerated. Jimmer's the best guard on this team, without question. In this wicked world, it doesn't matter what the right thing is. Sometimes the wicked stifle the good sheep illogically and immorally.

I'm not sure this is an issue of morality.

Why do you type like this?

So nobody will want to read his thoughts? Just jokin

Yeah... you're about thisclose from crossing the threshold from annoying fanboy to troll. It's in your best interest to take a step back.

Thats a bit crazy, but I will say he is faster and a better shooter than Vasquez who is so slow.

Too late. 3me's bus reached downtown Trollville. He has left the building.

On a night like tonight, that's actually too bad. We need someone to kick around

 

[swisshh]

poe's law for the SF spot

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Crazy Kings fans in Oakland. Gotta luv it

 

[HndsmCelt]

Anyone else think Coach Malone looks like he ought to be a cop?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I agree. He's also the best big man. And coach.

Plus he smells nice.

I loved hearing our wonderful CrownDowntown folks chanting SAC-RA-MEN-TO at the end. And right now, I'm absolutely giddy over Malone not sugarcoating how abysmal our team looked. "We don't have the greatest talent in the NBA so we have to show up and work. If we don't, we're gonna get our azz kicked." (paraphrased...)

Look dude, I am Jimmer fan. That is why I am on this board. I am think Jimmer can play if he is given the minutes but you need to stop with the over the top Jimmer stuff. It is categorically wrong and embarrasses not only yourself but the legitimate Kings fans that have voiced positive opinions about Jimmer.

I know you really believe the stuff you say but you are wrong and you are doing no good to anybody with your combative style. Just stop or at least cool it.

 

[DesertFox]

Despite tonight, it's not hard to see the team becoming pretty good.
A starting small forward to defend and a big who can protect the rim for 15 minutes/game, and then it's just waiting for Ben to develop next to Cuz

 

[VF21]

Wow, Malone is NOT happy and he is not going to make excuses for poor play. Such a welcome relief. Our players are going to be held accountable for their actions or lack thereof.

How long do you think the players will put up with that?

 

[HndsmCelt]

How long do you think the players will out up with that?

hopefully until they have had all they need.

What needs to be understood, is that this alone is more valuable than wins or loses this year. We have a real coach

 

[VF21]

FYI - SDkings82 was exactly who I thought he was. He, too, has departed the building.

 

[VF21]

How long do you think the players will put up with that?

They'll put up with it if they want to be part of the team. Accountability comes with responsibility. Ask anyone on the Spurs...

 

[Kingster]

Or a Marine.

 

[Kingster]

How long do you think the players will put up with that?

Maybe the question is: How long will Vivek put up with them?

You think that Coach Malone has as much pull and Pop? I am not saying that Coach Malone is wrong but players will only take so much of that no matter who the coach is. I can't see MT or Cousins taking too much of it.

I endorse this message.

You can't fire all the players.

Did you drop the hammer?

 

[PurpleHaze]

How long do you think the players will put up with that?

What players? Certainly not many of the ones on floor for Kings during most of second half.

 

[Kingster]

You can't fire all the players.

But you can. It just takes a while.

Malone has to be real; otherwise the culture will never change.

 

[VF21]

Malone is holding them accountable for poor play. You think they don't know they stunk up the court tonight and played without focus or heart? Oh please...

Structure and discipline are of tantamount importance in raising kids and coaching teams. If MT has a problem, then too bad. I don't think DMC will have a problem for the simple reason it was pretty clear he was frustrated with himself and his teammates.

Pop gained the respect of his players because he held them accountable and made sure they knew their roles in the organization. I don't know too many coaches who could have successfully turned Manu into a bench player without it.

The Kings have needed a coach with a strong compass for a very long time. Personally I'm ecstatic to see it.
