Better quote from George, although it also amounts to "get me some new guys".

I guess Cousins is just perfect then. No reason to blame him for anything, like not running back when Noel does and gets easy baskets from hustling down the court.
Ben can kick rocks too. He hasn't done ****. If we're hitting the reset button, lets go all out. He can go milk his "potential" on someone else's dime.

seth curry didn't play did he?
It is over. Players are going to turn on him....it's just going to continue to get worse.
This is hilarious considering how he used wcs when he was healthy and his preference in running 2 and 3 pg lineups. He's just saying what he knows people want to hear. The proof he cares will come in lineups and rotations not in words. Karl is as disengenuous as it gets. His players know it and we should as fans as well.

Bingo. This is the exact reason we lost in Washington, Portland and now to Philly in the past 10 days.

Sign that check, Vivek. Thanks for this btw.
There should be a law put in place that you and Jed York can't be within 10 states of each other. Truly the worst two in all of sports right now.

A 35 - 40 win team with a coach that has no future, a owner that spreads dysfunction, and a unproven GM doesn't seem like a situation that attracts anything other then the mid level pieces we got this summer. You're cap situation also isn't going to elevate you above the competition. With all that said I understand the logic of rolling with Cousins and gambling that you can find some diamonds in the rough that will get you to the next level, but if you're foundation with Cousins is this shaky then what's the point?

HOFers are winners. Cousin, nor anybody on this team right now, are winners. People have said that DMC is so emotional because he just wants to win and gets frustrated at this hamster wheel of a franchise, and yet when the team is actually in a position to take over the 8th spot and push up a weak conference, what do we see? Do we see smart, heady play from a vet? Do we see guys seize the opportunity and play with passion like hungry wolves? Do we see a guy who is leading his teammates in going after what he's desperately been seeking his entire career when it is right there for the taking? Cousin is a HOF talent, but is not a HOF player.

Those would be on him, but on several of them Cuz was mugged and to the ground on the other end of the floor. No way for him, or anyone, to get back in time from that position.
And its got nothing to do with Cuz. That's just basketball. Any team, any level. If you see a big man show big on a penetrating guard, and then his man get an alley oop behind him that's really not on him, unless the penetrating guard is so offensively inept that the big is not supposed to challenge him.
Watch good defensive teams play and what you'll always see is the forward on that side of the floor step down in to cut off the passing angle.
And actually when you see that, it normally open the corner three, so the forward has to try to spin back and recover if a skip pass is made. At which time the big's job is to get back and remake contact with his big cover, and fight him for a potential board.
Its jsut the way the game flows. By far the best idea is just not to have your guards get blown by in the first place. From there its a cascade failure.
Good chance it gets worse than better.....if that's possible.

I've just seen enough of Cousins and can't see the success we all want with him leading the charge. He just can't handle adversity of any kind.

From day one I hated the hire. His main qualification has always been his name. Even Vivek could sell that to fan base that hated him.

Except the chair is a huge Game of Throne type of chair...
the Kings are a pretty special case of adversity

Karl is a bad signing
Cousins isn't a winner
Vlade is a good GM though

Trade him or not, this ship is going down.
I don't remember feeling this bad about our future in a long long time.

People seem to want to snap their fingers and *poof* a shiny new contender appears, but its unlikely.
make the playoffs, get the monkey off your back, a little exposure. your players gain trade value as they are no longer members of the sad sack Kings. people listen more to the coach, The offseason plans involve guys looking ahead and thinking time to take the next step. You give Cuz status, and Rajon regains status, and maybe you recriut somebody. But none of that stuff is possible for a 20-something win team.

I dream that we trade Cuz for Simmons

It makes you wonder, why are they not stepping up? Why aren't they playing hard, knowing they are so close?
Is it because everyone is playing in an offense that they know is not working? Imagine doing something that you know is not going to work everyday because your boss keeps insisting.
Remember, its not only Cousins that is lacking that hunger and energy lately.

He's been a great hire.
The lone voice of sanity since he took over. But there's still bad cess to be bled out.
