Guys, I think I'm crazy for watching this team right now.
Seriously though, I didn't start watching the game until the 3rd quarter. So I missed out on everything good it seems.

Hey look, MY EXACT REACTION:
Michae Bluth - "Clear as the Ann on plain's face."
Leela -" Man, I'm sore all over. I feel like I just went ten rounds with mighty Thor"
Fry - "I feel like I was mauled by Jesus. "
Homer - " When I held that gun in my hand, I felt a surge of power…like God must feel when he’s holding a gun."

I'm sick. I'm tired. I'm angry.
This is just unacceptable. I don’t even know what I was watching in that 4th quarter. I should’ve stayed asleep.

There are some guys smarter than me, some guys better looking, I take comfort in the fact that there is no guy that is both.
Man, I finally got rid of my family at hallftime, turned on the TV and thought I was dreaming.
We were up 13. So I was excited…and then they started playing again.
Crash landing back to Earth.
Oh well. On to the next one, and on Tuesday, can we get a win, guys? Please?

Here we suck.
To have played so well in the first half and to suck so bad in the 2nd is simply inexcusable.

Can someone...
please strap Luther Head down clockwork orange style and show him six hours of Ray Allen catch and shooting threes so he’ll stop pump fakeing on every other open three.

Final Thought before I go write my Bad and Ugly post
If we lose badly to the Pacers on Tuesday, it doesn’t matter what your personal feelings on Westphal are, he’s not long for the Kings bench.

So it just comes down to the Pacers Game?
Why do you think this? Just curious…seriously.
ailene voisin is wack!
Because if we lose the Pacers game (AT HOME)
We will have lost 11 of our last 12 games (9 at home), with a back-to-back at the Lakers, and then coming home to face the Mavericks. After that there are two games for redemption, once more at the Clippers, and then against the Wizards for the first time. Then we play the Heat, Rockets, Hornets, Thunder, and Rockets.

I think Westphal has a very long leash
I think the Kings picked up Westphal’s option gives him a lot more breathing room. I honestly don’t believe they will relieve Westphal until season’s end.
Children, before you go to sleep check under your bed for the BOOGIE MAN!!
IMO he is good until the CBA

I have my doubts...
it still seems pretty early and Petrie tends to be more patient than us fans. However, if the infighting continues, they’re not going to have a choice.
Can we bench a coach for a half
and put ib a sub?

Response fail
sorry Aykis

Honestly, if the Kings keep losing,
realistically, how many more chances does the front office give Westphal? I know firing him won’t accomplish anything and yada yada, but could a new coach or an interim do any worse than what Paul W has done up to this point? Imo no. I fear his coaching day’s for the Sacramento Kings are almost numbered.
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
If he's fired
it’s to appease the fans more than anything
Michae Bluth - "Clear as the Ann on plain's face."
Leela -" Man, I'm sore all over. I feel like I just went ten rounds with mighty Thor"
Fry - "I feel like I was mauled by Jesus. "
Homer - " When I held that gun in my hand, I felt a surge of power…like God must feel when he’s holding a gun."
Isn't that kind of important?
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
It is
but it’s only a quick fix
Kings go on another 6 game losing streak with new coach
what then?
Michae Bluth - "Clear as the Ann on plain's face."
Leela -" Man, I'm sore all over. I feel like I just went ten rounds with mighty Thor"
Fry - "I feel like I was mauled by Jesus. "
Homer - " When I held that gun in my hand, I felt a surge of power…like God must feel when he’s holding a gun."
Is it not worth the gamble?
We know that Westphal is capable of a 6 game losing streak and then some.
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
It's worth it to satisfy some of the fans
my thing is though, I’d honestly not fire a coach then have an interim coach in there, because then, the players will just give up. The interim coach will not be there next season.
I know it’s easy for fans to just say fire the coach, and I don’t think it’s crazy talk, but there is absolutely no one available that I want and if they are available it’s for a reason.

I agree.
Westphal sucks, but there isn’t anyone better on the market. Might as well stick with him for consistency’s sake [although the coach will really be the only constant thing with his lineups] for the rest of the season unless something really calls for his replacement later on down the road.

Is it the coaching? Does every team in the NBA have more talent,
Is it the players that have given up? Or is it all of the above?
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
Totally agree
I’m so conflicted on Westphal…I liked him a lot last year and this year am SO disappointed with him, as well as with the players, obviously. I don’t know what the answer is, but like you said, no one else is available that I’d rather have. That might be a different story during the next offseason, as teams have a habit of firing coaches when they feel their team had a disappointing season, whether or not it’s warranted to blame the coach.

then trade everybody for Melo
and hire phil jackson as our coach. how do you not get this?
Sometimes i think to myself, "why do i root for this team?" then i read the comments about the team by the "fans" and i realize, i root for the team because i add some intelligence to the fan base.
You're on to something there...

Really?
because i was being sarcastic

I was reading Ziller's tweets
I’m just going to guess the Kings blew another lead.

I'm beginning to feel that way also.
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
I got frustrated and turned off the TV when they tied it 76-76
of course i went to the radio in case something good happened but sadly no, I havent been this mad at the Kings since they gave up a lead to the Jazz the same game where Price dunked on Boozer.
I’m pretty pissed off now, but by tomorrow i should be calm and ready to root for the kings on Tuesday

Did the starting lineup
that played so well in the first quarter even play together in the forth?

Took JT out and moved Greene to PF
cuz of matchups
There are some guys smarter than me, some guys better looking, I take comfort in the fact that there is no guy that is both.
Well
That first half was the greatest 24 minutes the Kings and I have shared this season. What happened with the player substitutions in the second half was atrocious. Westphal had so many different guys in at different times I felt like I was going to be dizzy trying to figure out who was on the floor!
I was uncool before it was cool
Pretty good coaching huh?
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
Sadly
I wasnt on the fire Westphal bandwagon prior to this game. I was even more encouraged when they came out the way they did, but that second half was inexcusable. No cohesiveness and I think it started with all the crazy line ups. Obviously Westphal doesn’t control the players actions on the court, but it was obvious how poor his combination’s were. The players just looked lost and confused.
On a side note, I was pretty disenchanted with JT one of those final plays, when he saw Beno on the floor and rather than helping him up, just walked away and Chicago’s Deng went over to help Beno off the floor. I think there is more going on in that locker room than any of us know.
I was uncool before it was cool
If westphal gets fired,
does that mean petrie is next? because he was the one that handled the coaching decision and chose westphal as his guy to coach the kings? Not saying Petrie should be fired but if your gonna fire the coach, do you also fire the guy who put all his marbles into him succeeding?
Sometimes i think to myself, "why do i root for this team?" then i read the comments about the team by the "fans" and i realize, i root for the team because i add some intelligence to the fan base.
No, Petrie probably uses Westy as a Goat and will most likely come away unscathed.
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
No Petrie is not bullet proof anymore. There is no way he escapes this anymore than Westy.

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
Well that may be true, but he's sure escaped a few times already,
what makes you think this time will be different?
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
The fact that Petrie can retire.

What is your opinion? Do you think Petrie is the right man for the job?
Brennan Huff: I have a belly full of white dog crap in me, and now you lay this shit on me?
Yeah. I don't have a problem with Westphal.
This is the issue when you got a lot of young players. They have a tough time meshing and finding mixes that work means sacrificing some of that potential for a player who can help you now. This team will sink otherwise.

So basically just be paitent and hope that this team meshes?

It is a frustratingly limited number of choices
but yes (IMO) given the other options

Right. There is little else you can do at this point.
If you think big picture and not just last night, it helps.

not firing anybody.
i dont think firing anyone is eminent yet. i think a move will occur before anyones canned.

me too
if anything i think petrie relieves westphal after a move is made if the losing continues
by Gold Miner 916 on Nov 27, 2010 10:17 PM PST up reply actions
I think Petrie will quit as the GM if that happens.

hmmm?
why would he step down? i still think he gots some magic up those sleeves and think he has a solid plan and is just one move away from seeing that starting to see that vision come together.

How many coaches can you blame before looking at other decision makers within the team?

i know he’s killed the kings and at times can be lights out. might be a possibility going forward next to reke?

I had planned to watch the game and chat it up on STR with you fine people
But then got called into work. I now think it was a wise decision to pick up the shift (and not just because I need the money). I guess it’s a silver lining that they apparently played amazingly well in the first half (well, for the Kings, at least), but it’s pretty discouraging that they couldn’t even keep it up for one game. Sigh. I’m glad I didn’t have to witness it…and I’m sorry to those of you who did :(

Since when does working constitute as a bad decision?

Not often
But I wasn’t scheduled, had worked 8 hours (meaning was there for 8 hours 45 min) the night before, didn’t get much sleep, etc. I’m glad I agreed to go in, but it may have been a wiser decision to stay home and do homework, but whatever. I clearly didn’t miss much of a game so I’m OK with it.

Where's the pick n roll ?
The kings on offense is offensive!Do they know what a pick n roll is? It’s ran in every rec league in the world.80 % of the time D.Rose had the ball it was pick n roll.The pnr is so simple to run yet hard to defend.I can count about 10 times we ran it.The Kings set no screens , no back door picks , everyone stands around watching .Turtle should be running pnr a ton we have descent big shooters Landry,Thompson,it can cause mismatches double teams where if they pass someone will be open. I had a felling our offense in the first half was fools gold.Guys were hot and even Dalembert was hot.I’m tired of watching Cousins dribble into a clogged lane out of control.Yet he is really the only one who sets the screen trying to get the pnr going.It seems like we don’t have a group of smart players.it’s up to the coach to teach I only see line up changes outta Westphall.That is not good enough to hold on to his job in my opinion.there’s alot more at stake here than wins and losses.we need a change
