Games over. Bad coaching on this one

I remember Carmichael Dave had a guest on his show I think it was last week and he said that regarding the winning streak(they were on at the time) he didn't think it was Doug's coaching as it must as it was the change just shaking the team up. So maybe he was right. Sometimes players feel guilty and start giving 150% in the beginning after a coaching change, and then the effort starts to wane and a few weeks later they are back to where they started..

It's both. The Kings aren't winning 9 out of 10 just because a coach was fired haha. The coaches did change up the defensive philosophy. That's fact.

It was the substitution and putting in the right guys on the court. Right now, the Kings always lose when the play teams with lengthy guy. The Kings just don't have enough guys that can help play interior defense.
 
Leon Rose has done a very good job of building a team that reflects the identity of their head coach. And it's a good thing that those boys are made out of iron, too, because Thibs ain't gonna rest them at all.
(The Knicks remain better without KAT on the floor though)

Played teams missing players as well

I was told last game it’s not a length issue but a back to back issue lol
 
The way the Kings are playing, think I have to change my road prediction from 3-3 to 2-4 or perhaps 1-5 if we don't make some drastic improvements. but still think we can go 2-4
