Way over simplified. Getting shots? Yeah, players eventually shoot I guess. The problem is outside of what we saw in pick and roll tonight those shots don't involve many aspects of putting the defense on their heels. Pick and roll is a great way for a team to get into rhythm which is key right now. In the 3rd they went away from a lot of that. You saw players again looking side to side, and no, clearly those shots weren't good shots. Players missing open shots is going to happen, right now they need to consider the shots they are manufacturing with their offense. Joerger has the right idea wanting to put in a team oriented system of ball movement, but this team is almost completely ineffective playing the side to side ball they are attempting. Straight forward to the rim pnr isn't nearly as ugly. I say get that down first, then work from there.
Why should he be starting? He hasn't earned anything. And Randolph is the best & most reliable offensive player we have.
I mean we have a massive problem scoring as is.
I hope Fox or some of the other guys can be counted on to score every night, but Randolph can be penciled in to score 10-12 a game if he gets enough minutes. That's actually how bad we are.

If the Kings know what they are doing they picked up that last year knowing they might be eating it and if so, good for him, millions for nothing. It's common sense, if a coach has a dead set desired way of playing and he has a team that doesn't necessarily fit that vision then something has to give. You pick the coach, or the players. The Kings seem to continuously find themselves putting the icing on before baking the cake. There were spurts of the running, up tempo, attack oriented team in this game outside of the 3rd quarter meltdown. If anyone doesn't think this team is going to look ugly at times then they are delusional, but most of the time is not acceptable. The Kings actually do have too much talent on the roster for that.
you guys can't seriously be blaming Joerger right? I think his offense is ****ing terrible, but there is 0 reason to run the rookies down to the ground. They are horrible. Are you guys seriously suggesting Joerger plays Fox-Hield-Jackson-Skal-PapaG for more than 30mins?????? they wouldn't even be able to put up 60pts.
Please don't blame our horrible players on Joerger. This is not his fault. It's actually far from it.

Every team runs pick and roll because of how simple it is. Certain teams rely on it more than others and teams use it for different purposes. It's another funny thing, or sad, the Kings used to run it non stop with Cuz, who really wasn't much of an effective pick and roll big man, the Kings now have the tools for it and don't run it nearly enough.
Sitting Fox for nearly the entire 3rd quarter is STUPID, no other way to slice it. Period. This is becoming a common occurrence and it’s no secret that it’s been our worst quarter every time. Until the coach shows he’s willing to continue making adjustments and run a basic freaking pick n roll, yes he should be getting a big bulk of the blame as well.
It’s about combinations, not just running out 5 young guys out there.

Joerger is limited. the team has very little talent. The team will easily be a 60 loss team.
In Memphis, Conley, Gasol, Allen, and Randolph in his prime.
Kings have potential in Bogdan, Skal and Fox. Maybe we luck out with Giles.
Other than that: Hield is bust, WCS is a Bust. I don't see JJ amounting to anything. Sprinkle in 2 guys just getting paid: Hill and Randolph. 2 Blue collar types in Temple and Koufas.
