Tyrone Corbin Expectations
- Thread starter Tyrone C
- Start date
Its not about fan expectations, it's about the owner's expectations.
Will our guys attempt at least 60 3pt shots a game?
Will Nik get the 35mpg he deserves as Vivek's pick?
Will we cherry pick easy shots, or play defense like fools?
Will DC and Cuz be the next Nash and Amare? Since, you know... It was Malone's system holding them back!

Based on PDA's press conference today I think it's pretty obvious what the expectations are.........be a puppet and don't question authority. This means run Vivek's "run and gun" offensive style and start experimenting with things like the 4 on 5 defense. If it fails the fall back plan will then be George Karl.
They are not going to get all of the NBA 3.0, run and gun, and 4 on 5 defense stuff from George Karl if they hired him right now. They'll never get him to do the more off the wall stuff. One thing everybody knows about George Karl is that he has a strong will and when he's the coach.....he's the coach. Karl doesn't take play-style orders from the owner or GM. He doesn't have to because he's succeeded everywhere he has gone.
Sad to say but the only reason Ty Corbin even has the head coach job right now (and their full support as they say) is because he's going to do things their way. When I say "their way" I really mean Vivek's way because I think Vivek is trying to prove something to the rest of the league that his NBA 3.0 stuff that he runs on is daughter's team will work in the NBA. George Karl is way to smart, strong willed, and credible to come in here and start taking coaching orders from Vivek.
I think the only hope here is that most likely Vivek's methods fail miserably and his mind will override his ego and he will set said ego aside and say to himself, "I tried it my way and I was wrong it did not work".

I think Coach Corbin will finish the season. He doesn't earn 'head coach money' so it will be more economical for the FO to keep him through the end of the season. If the Kings do well then it's a cherry on top for the organization. Malone is still owed a lot of money. Karl will demand a large contract. If Karl was the reason for terminating Malone why not bring him in now? Public perception? No. Certainly Malone was a stone in the FO's shoe for a while per the facts beginning to emerge. The Karl idea was probably explored by the FO for a few weeks now or even more. At this juncture bringing in Karl would not matter as it pertains to public perception. There's no conspiracy here. If Karl is brought in then why terminate Corbin? Why wouldn't the FO just reinsert him as an assistant coach? Unless Karl doesn't want him.
So my take in the matter is that Corbin remains HC at least until the end of the present season. One thing is for sure, we'll know what happens before too long.
-Cheers.

It feels like Ty Corbin has integrity, so I don't think, you will get a puppet. Multi-headed FO mishandled the situation with PDA making pretty bad job at damage control, but these crazy ideas that Kings will try out crazy ideas is just a way for national talking heads to get easy hits.

I really have no idea.
Here's the keys:
1) if Vivek can convince Mullin to come in and complete the stupidity, Corbin is done as head coach, but could very well be asked to stay on as lead assistant/the real coach, while Mullin struts the sidelines during games.
2) if Mullin won't say yes, Corbin may have some lasting power just so long as he indulges every idiotic whim of the front office
3) if Mullin gsays no, but Corbin turns out to have some backbone/integrity, then apparently he too will be canned. This is no longer a professional setting. Yes men only need apply. We've got a power mad rodent and rich middle school coach to satisfy.

It would probably be best for Corbin to give in and listen to what he is told, but dammit I want him to flip the script and go all commando up in here, have the team playing defense and proclaiming "This is for Coach Malone!" in a Spartan voice while he kicks Vivek into a ditch. Yea that's what I want.
Make it happen Corbin, not like you got anything to lose.

You apparently forget which front office we are talking about here.
