So, basically, if Walton stops using CoJo or CoJo gets traded, then Walton would be the best coach ever, because that's all you guys seem to have to complain about coach. ;)

Here's a nice write up about Luke and the coaching staff turning things around. Seems like Ham has been reading this thread. ;) https://www.yahoo.com/sports/kings-win-streak-hits-four-010321894.html

What other proven NBA player do the Kings have to put in as the 4th guard currently? Eventually, Kyle Guy may gain the trust of Coach to give him those minutes, but CoJo has been a quality defensive guard in the NBA for 9+ years. He was considered one of the better backup point guards in the NBA...

In time that may happen, but Guy needs to win the coaches trust before he gets those minutes. And eventually he may get those minutes. But as for now, the Kings are winning with the lineup Luke is putting out there, so why not enjoy the moment?

Like I said, who you going to put out there for 20 minutes as the 4th guard? If there are no other viable option to fill in that 20 minutes, the alternative of sticking someone like Guy or Ramsey (who are not ready for PT) would make the Kings worse than CoJo does. TBH, you guys make it out...

These Kings players are just plain amazing! Coached themselves to a 12-11 record and a tie for the 8th seed in the ultra tough Western Conference all by themselves! Truly Amazing! ;)

Well? ;)

Well, who would he use as that 4th guard? Kyle Guy for 20 min a game? If he did, the Kings wouldn't be sniffing the playoffs picture right now. CoJo still offers a veteran hand and defensive presence when he is on the floor. The Kings have been winning these tight games and having a veteran...

I think a lot times, coaches don't want to put a player in that situation, after sitting them for the whole 4th quarter and then sticking them in for the crucial last couple of seconds. It's going to be tough for any player, especially a young player to make the correct play in that high...

The Kings are 0.500 22 games into this season and only 1.0 game out of the playoffs and 1.5 games out of the 4th seed. You can say what you want about what happened in the Bubble and the defensive breakdowns early on, but this team is looking mighty good and Coach Walton deserves some love for...

WTH happened to the defensive juggernaut team that the Kings were putting on the floor through the first 4 games? Those first few games of the season, the Kings looked really good on the defensive end.

Vlade had already decided to fire Joeger before that last game. I think Joeger threw that last game because he found out mid-game he was going to be fired. I remember the players whispering to each other in the middle of the game. Then in the second half, Joeger threw out the whole end of the...

OK. I'm going to put this out there. Haliburton is the "better shooting, less ball dominating, better decision making, less flashy" version of Luka that the Kings desperately needed alongside Fox. Basically, Haliburton is a more "under control" version of Luka. Haliburton has the same "Luka...

All this Walton hate really needs to stop guys. We are 3-1 and the Kings are playing like a cohesive team on the upswing. The players are not coaching themselves, Coach Walton deserves some credit for righting this ship. This is a new season, let's judge the coach by what the Kings do this...

To be fair, Vlade definitely deserves some credit, considering that 7 of the 10 rotation players are from Vlade tenure. To be sure, Luke is showing some coaching chops so far this season. But Monte also brought in two top notch assistant coaches in Alvin Gentry (for Offense) and Rex Kalamian...

It's too early to start Haliburton, unless it's at the shooting guard. Having him start with Fox and Buddy, Haliburton would have to guard the SF and he would get destroyed by small forwards in the NBA (i.e LeBron, Kawaii, Doncic, Zion, Durant, Butler, etc). That's a good way to destroy a...

I would like to see Whiteside start at center too. I think Whiteside will be starting after a few more games. He needs to get up to speed, seeing that he missed most of the abbreviated pre-season. He and Bagley would give the Kings the rebounding advantage almost every game, helping spark the...

Depending on how the early season plays out, CoJo may be an integral player in rotation as the Kings push for the playoffs or he will become a trade candidate at the deadline. If CoJo continues to play like last night, the Kings will have options. CoJo is definitely a solid back up point guard...

Where’s the love for Coach Walton? I think Luke out coached Malone tonight. Luke pulled the right strings to keep the Kings close all game. From managing the fouling out of the bigs and keeping a rookie on the floor during crunch time. He made the all the right defense for offense switches to...

To be fair, the NBA should have given the Kings that 2nd rounder from the Bucks as compensation for losing Bogdan for nothing! :mad:
