Sacramento Kings vs. Klay Thompson 2/3

[old rem]

Lets face it. Majority of the team has mailed it in and want the season to end. The problem is we are in February and it's not until late April the season ends. That a good 3 months worth of basketball left. There is a good chance they don't get over 30 wins this season.

Heads will start to roll (looking at Pete and co) if this continues any longer. Or I hope that is the case.

What? No way this team has quit. Just look at this defense. We're all in, baby.

Okay...that clip showed some "defense" hat's flat out lazy and crap. Hello? Wake up? Sac has some talent... but if you can't get guys to really WORK...with the incentive of glory and MEGA $... then there's a problem.

I mean... I'm no coach.. but I can tALK..and if I can say..DUDE.. pay your dues..bust ass...you make $10 mill a year at a part time job..you get to be a local hero. OR.... be a lazy putz and a local joke soon to need a new career. THINK about it. I can not IMAGINE it's hard to MOTIVATE a pro basketball player to INVEST the maximum effort.

I do know that Pete has to take a lot of the blame, because, lets be honest, he's the root cause of all this. No question, but I'm starting to shift from anger in that area to anger in watching these guys indeed mail it in. That 3rd quarter was a result of the embarrassment that the team suffered in the first half. Where was that fire for 3 quarters? Unfortunately this team is starting to get battered wife syndrome. They need to step it up, be professional and give it there all even if they can't rely on the organization. How come we haven't even heard anything about team meetings or anything like that? This is just getting ridiculous and I hope Vivek realizes that he can't just afford to wait it out. I just fear he is far to new at all this to understand that.

I don't know what the deal truly is, but I'm starting to think that Cousins is tanking it. I started to notice things for sure during that Pacers game. Cuz is a pretty smart dude and that can be a problem in sports. As a coach it's sometimes better to have a complete moron that gives it their all regardless and only thinks possession to possession. Smart players like Cousins can smell this **** a mile away and he might just figure the less of a crap he gives something else will give within this organization. Cousins isn't simple enough to keep pushing the same boulder up hill both ways.

I think there is some sort of mutiny against the FO from the players. If anyone has kept track on the majority of player's post game interviews since the firing of Malone, they do not look pleased at all and explicitly favor the previous philosophy over the current gimmicky one.

I hope the one's who is responsible for this implosion will be held accountable when things start to go nuclear.

The powers that be won't be able t hide from the schedule if this team has indeed mailed it in, the worst is coming.

Now whether or not I will hide from the schedule is another matter. Can't believe such hardcore fans are being turned off like this.. Well, I might still watch

Ever since last week, I stop paying attention to Kings games all together. Especially after Klay Thompson's 37 point quarter game. I only watch snips and pieces from time to time but really, I don't have Kings games revolve around my schedule anymore. That has NEVER happened to me before. Even during the Kenny Natt/Smart years, I still watch the games in their entirely.

This really sucks big time.

Didn't see Pete or Vivek around anywhere, wonder what's up. Guess I wouldn't want to be there either if I were them. Karma says they deserve the boot kicking they've been getting but why do we have to suffer too? haha.

Neither of them were on hand for Silver's tour of the ESC (as seen in the photo on the King's page), so they must be away dealing with other business matters.
