He's done everything he could...right up until today. He finally snapped. I defy you or anyone else to be able to do the same.
It's so easy to point to DMC's ONE lapse and forget about how much he's tried to carry this team.
Be very careful, all of you so quick to want to blame DMC right now. We lose him, we lose this team ... at least as far as being anything we'd want to watch for the next decade or so.

All the talk of pace, jazz, trumpets etc, doesn't matter when a decision kills the morale of a team.

If you're going to fire the coach, what's your plan? Bring your top player on board. Communicate with fans. Hasn't happened. #NBAKings

@Vivek @Pdoro @SacramentoKings WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??? You do NOT take away a team's leader midseason. Where's your people sense?

That's the thing. Cuz HAS matured, but apparently that was all tied with Malone. There's no denying the vastly improved mentality over the past year and a half.
But when you're a franchise guy (and he is) and the team is going through an incredibly rough patch (which they are), we need him to step up and be the leader. Not going the other direction.
That's all im saying

Anyone criticizing Boogie's (admittedly excessive) reaction - look at the way Kings fans have been acting & tell me he's the immature one.

There's no excuse for Cuz there, has to keep his composure.
However, leadership starts at the top, first with the owner, then the FO/GM, followed by the coach who acts as a general leading his troops, then down to the players who lead the team. When there's a serious breakdown at the top, it funnels down to the players.
Leaders have a vision they build towards and when that vision is no longer there, you're basically attempting to lead through a thick fog with no plan to follow, destination unknown. That's a recipe for disaster.

Seriously...it's so damn easy to just say that these 2 guys just need to turn the page and lead. Well, apparently it's not that easy or else they would. These are the same 2 guys who were leading this team in the off-season, leading them in the early season before the firing and now that their coach was fired for being what? Successful? You don't think these guys take this personally? An apparent lack of communication on everything from the front office?!?!
So easy to sit and armchair manage and tell these guys to just flip the switch and lead...turn the page. SMDH.

FWIW: This guy worked in PR for the Kings and was fired after Vivek & company took over. soo i think this says alot about the guys in charge.............

When you continually screw over decent people for no reason, it usually comes back to haunt you ... #notnamingnames #karma

That adds to the claim Napear made yesterday, which is that the anger and disbelief in what's going on is shared by many within the organization as well.
That's an enormous red flag. It's pee poor leadership when less than two years after taking over, many in your organization are unhappy with upper management.
