Second night of a b2b. The Kings are high off their statement game last night in Dallas. They've successfully handled the T-Wolves twice this season who are surprisingly playing beneath expectations. This will be the second time we see them on their court.

I think the key to winning the game will be for players like Bodanovic and WCS to have stronger games than they did last night. I don't imagine Fox and Buddy to perform at as high of a level as they did yesterday so these starters need to pick up the slack. Bjelica has consistently played strong against his former team so it would be nice to see him continue tonight.

Off the bench Yogi and JJ need to continue to play strong. I would be happy if there was a Giles sighting in there as well.

I didn't see the post game but the Kings came out flat and either he gave them the night off, or was pissed. I'm not sure.

That **** pisses me off. Joerger made a horrid decision. I get it, the guys came out with low energy tonight. The fact is EVERY GAME matters in the tight West. I was on board with benching everyone, but when Jackson, Skal, and Yogi brought us back in the 3rd, he should have went back to the starters and not Ben POS Mclemore and Frank Mason.

Just my opinion but I thought it was a horrible statement by Joerger. Guys played 3 games in 4 nights. Of course they were gassed, but if you have the chance to win the game you do it.

I'm in wtf mode, confused more than anything.

But add this confusion to the list.

Was unhappy when he pulled Fox out vs the Warriors, and when playing Memphis letting JJJ abuse Bjelica so badly.

Ya I couldn't believe that either. Was at a friends house and missed all but the last 10 minutes, was following on my phone. We came back from down 6 at end of 3rd to make a huge run to start the 4th. Then with what 4 or 5 minutes left he benches Fox with 5 fouls. That horrible coaching. Theres 4 minutes left wtf are you saving him for?

I'm still not convinced hes a good coach. Hes just letting the young guys run and pick and roll. He calls decent plays out of the timeouts but he fails to make in game adjustments (which goes to your Bjelica/JJJ point). Any coach with half a brain can see a roster of 20-26 year olds and say okay go run.. But I still think theres better options out there.

Sadly firing him at this point would just lead to a disaster of KANGZ from the media and not best for our season or going into next year.

I think we need to approach this like the Warriors did with Jackson or Houston did with Kevin Mchale. Get to the playoffs this year or next, and then fire him for a better coach who can lead us to the promise land.
