"Sources: Kings poised to fire Petrie, Westphal"

How reputable is Ken Burger? I bet his source is Voisin.

[SacKingZZZ]

That said, don't buy it, and I really hope that the Maloofs don't consider Cousins a disastrous pick. If things were really that bad with him behind the scenes I think a little more than what's leaked would have leaked by now. I also hope they don't just outright fire Petrie, but it sounds like he's already thinking of winding it down so that might effect things in that area.

[SacKingZZZ]

And it gets even more interesting!

"Former Monarchs coach John Whisenant indeed in running 2 coach, but possibly be GM. Bill Walton, Kings assts Eyen, Elie in coach discussions"

I actually wouldn't mind Bill Walton as coach!!! Just from hearing him commentate he at least recognizes how this team should be playing. He would completely favor the bigs though.

I'm all for Charles Barkley for GM too.

I know the Whisenant idea will get bashed as always but I say, what the hell. At least if they finally do it we won't have to hear his name every time this team is in flux.

Sure why not. Gotta do something. I sort of like the idea of Bill Walton as coach.
Also fire Jim Gray and bring back Kayte or Koz.

Amick's twitter numbers must be blowing off the charts!

# More Maloof. "We have young talent, cap space...next year...We'll stick together. We're not going to go there. Not at all. Not true." less than a minute ago via TweetDeck

# More Maloof: "I don’t know where that’s coming from. We’re fine. We have a gameplan. Our future looks bright." 2 minutes ago via TweetDeck

# Just got off the phone with Kings owner Joe Maloof. Regarding whether axe is coming for Petrie or Westphal: "No, that's not true..." 3 minutes ago via TweetDeck

[SacKingZZZ]

Not happy if they are honestly just going to stick with Westphal without considering another way. The rest I'm kind of relieved about but this team is headed in the wrong direction on the court, not necessarily off the court IMO. The positives he mentioned are there, the rest is not.

Walton's back can't take the rigors of being an everyday coach.

Iinteresting about Petrie because it almost seemed like he walked on water with the maloofs.

If i was maloof i would fire cousins high school coach to send a message to demarcus and Westphal.

[boogie-reke]

All I want for Christmas is Paul Westphal out of my life.

[YC42Balla]

Paul Westphal and Geoff Petrie; All your base are belong to us.

Get that dude a state-of-the-art wheel chair and put him to work. He knows basketball...just don't let him bring Luke to Sac Town...

[tru6playa]

I'm ready for a change, I don't care if they dub YC42Balla the coach as long as he plays our young players...

[RIPskaterdude]

OH MY GOD.

IF THIS IS TRUE.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it'll be bitter sweet if it really does happen. I'm all for it, but I can't help but think what type of message -- good or bad -- is sent to DMC if PW is fired. Is he above the coach? His actions don't matter, because ownership will always side with him?

Now, I really do side with DMC and feel he's the scapegoat for PW. I see that he does need direction and he acts immature, but I can't stand to see DMC get punished for bad play, while Tyreke gets away with shooting contested three's, when he has no business shooting them.

I have a small conspiracy that Evans is only playing this bad to get Westfail failed, and as soon as a new coach is brought in, he'll immediately play like he did last year!

......it's the Holidays, I can dream!

I hope not. That would be a huge character flaw, and seperate him from the truely great athletes who have the undying will to compete and win.

This doesn't look credible at all. What a shame.
