Breaking news...Adelman era over (merged)

#32
It doesn't make a lot of sense to get rid of RA, but I'm still worried about it.

Maybe they're announcing this so soon because it was an obvious decision?

Maybe they're going to promote Turner?

I'd think twice before I dealt Ron a coaching disappoitment.

I think the only announcement that can be made now is either RA is returning, or is not returning, there is no way that a new coach would will be announced today. They would be crazy to hire someone before the end of the season. Maybe I'm just hoping it won't be Nelly so we have a chance of improving on the "D" we showed the past couple of months.

Coaching retirement announcements are usually made quickly when somebody is just fed up with the job. A new coach hire would seem to take a few weeks longer with more beans being spilled. This is coming real quick, so that's why I think he's retiring.

That is mere speculation. There are going to be lots of names bandied about if Rick Adelman is no longer coach of the Sacramento Kings.
True true, but this was written prior to whatever announcement is coming. I'm just saying that it could be Don Nelson coming. So prep yourself if you are a Nellie hater.

It COULD be just about anything, but I really think JB_Kings is more on track with his take on the situation.

It's more than just the Defense,Don nelson likes to have control, Control over the players,Control over what players to Draft, What players fit his system and style of play, just control period. What will petrie's role play into matters concerning personel, Don will want to bring in 15 assitant coaches, he will want to Bring in his specialtist, his shooting coaches, his own Basketball Guru's. What about pete carril, what about petrie's system of basketball and his approach towards the game.


Petrie's role is being Questioned as well, This is his Team, his system, His coaches that he has hired to instruct on how to play the game, his leadership is being questioned, The maloofs made the deal for ron artest and now they are making the Deal for who coaches the Team. What now is Petrie's Job.


The only Reason Bonzi went off in the playoffs this season is Because Rick adleman, The players coach that he is, He gave Bonzi Freedom to be Be bonzi wells, Turn overs and all. He got the most out of Bonzi, something that don nelson or mike fratello have no way of doing, simply because they have personalities of no patience. Don nelson may let players shoot with freedom and no conscience, But he isn't a players coach and the way he Yelled at finley in mid court,or At Lafrentz or at Chris Webber, This style of coaching wouldn't be recieved well with a Bonzi wells and it wouldn't come close with a Ron artest.


Ron artest and bozi wells are players that play to their potent ability with coaches like Adleman, Who live with the mistakes From bonzi's Turnovers or other blunders and Balance this out with allowing Bonzi too be bonzi, Taking advantage of the Great things bozi can do. The same with Ron, don nelson wants control, He does give offensive Freedom but he wouldn't allow Ron artest the mistake free Freedom at running the point like the way aldeman does. Ron artest thrives with a coach that allows him Freedom, This is one of the reasons he wanted out of Indiana was the strict offensive sets that they ran in Indiana.


Don nelson would be a nightmare for these players, The maloofs are not giving enough credit to the basketball minds of Petrie and adleman. They feel they made the move to save the season for the kings this year with the Artest trade, But they are Wrong, it was the Basketball system that Chris Webber came into which turned around his Career and got him 120 million


-Vlade became an all star in this system
-damon jones was saved by adleman and petrie from going back to the d-league
-Terry porter was awarded his 1 st coaching job from this system
-jim jackson was awarded 3 more seasons with a Lucrative contract from this system
-This system has taken on The tuoghest of personality's Vernon maxwell, jason williams, Chris webber,jim jackson, Ron artest, Bonzi wells.
-Now Ron artest and Bonzi wells turn their careers around in this system.

You want to turn your career around and Be Respected again you come to Sacramento, It's not the players or the ownership But the system of Basketball that is the cure.


They will Regret this roll of the dice.

Great analysis and all, but don't you think this is a bit premature? Nelson is not the coach as of now.

I totally agree with all of this... excpet that having Ron do whater the heck he wants on offense can definatly hurt us sometimes... Adleman needs to be better at controling his 3's... unless he is going to become a high percentage shooter... his FG average htis season was 38%... awful. He needs to get it up to 43-45. and thats not to much to ask.

The Rick Adelman era in Sacramento is over.

According to inside sources, Kings president of basketball operations Geoff Petrie is expected to announce at a 3 p.m. news conference today that the coach who led them to eight consecutive playoff berths will not be back next season.
