This has gotta be Ranadive. 11-13 in the west without demarcus for 9 games is a good record for that squad.

They knew they weren't going to make it into the playoffs so they knew that they needed a tank commander. They needed Ty Corbin.

Jesus, same old in Sac town it looks like. This is the same owner who wanted his team to play 4-on-5 on D so someone could cherry pick on O. Wow.

Mike Malone was a good coach for that team. He actually had them playing D for once. Just awful.

Yeah he made Collison and Gay look good. Demarcus was playing like an MVP. I guess he wasn't playing Ranadive's pet Stauskas enough

Wasn't Corbin widely regarded as one of the worst coaches in the league during his time in Utah? 11-13 in the West is respectable. Being 11-13 without a top 25 player for 9 of the games seems like a major accomplishment.

Started 9-6 iirc, 8-4 with the starting line up. Some franchises never change. Like how can you build stability and long term success after a move like that?

And now they're looking at Vinny Del Negro. Good fucking game.

If the complaint was offensive philosophy, what the hell do you expect Malone to do without athletic ballhandlers and 3pt shooters, and with an all-star center? Their defense needed to improve, but that's not going to be a fast team.

He had Rudy Gay playing well. DC was looking good. McLemore actually looked useful. Even Jason Thompson and Derrick Williams were active the few times I saw them.


god what a setback.

This really hurts if the players liked him too. This is how you get a team to quit for 60 games.

They were 9-4, so they've gone 2-9 in the last 11 games. Losing Cousins was a huge blow though. I disagree with the move, but I kinda see where it came from.

Why don't they bring in someone like George Karl, there are quite a few solid coaches out there who would probably enjoy getting to coach Gay and Cousins. The Kings have a solid team to build around.

Is Mike Malone a good coach? I just remember people panning him on this thread before.

I do know that Ty Corbin and Vinny Del Negro are terrible coaches, if they are who the Kings are looking to replace Malone. This is so bad.

The front office-coach relationship became increasingly strained through Las Vegas summer league in July, especially once Ranadive and D'Alessandro made a play to trade for Detroit forward Josh Smith, sources said. The owner told people outside the franchise that, no, his coach didn't want Smith, but Ranadive didn't care. He wanted Smith's talent, and it was on Malone to make it work



Malone was the smartest guy in the FO. Jesus christ. Rudy Gay, Cousins AND Josh Smith?

Wtf, another scapegoat move on the coach. Kings only started losing when Cousins sat and continues sitting out due to his viral infection. Once Cousins comes back and they Kings have a dominant 5, they're going start winning again.

And who the fuck wants Josh Smith, hes the best example of overpayed-inconsistent garbage. Thinks he is Dirk, taking too many shitty shots. Keep him in Detroit until he retires.

edit: I should've added overrated but that is known.

Ranadive sounds like the crazy guy we've all encountered in our fantasy leagues.
