What do you mean sit down?
@mr_jasonjones: It's one thing for a coach to get fired and the team had tuned him out. That's not the case here. No one seems to understand why it happened
A sitdown as in a private or somewhat-private meeting where people sitdown and chat. Normally one outside of normal routine. Cousins met with Mark Jackson, PDA and Mully after the previous game. He had a sitdown talk with Tyrone Corbin after this game.
9million dollars richer and get's out of a situation where he's forced to please a dumbass front office and coach a bunch of scrubs who invent new ways to lose every other game. Malone is actually the only winner in this situation, he can now go on and be set for life money wise and coach a better team with a respectable front office rather than having to deal with clowns in a circus.http://www.csnbayarea.com/kings/exclusive-malone-surprised-dismissal-kings?p=ya5nbcs&ocid=yahoo
Malone suprised at dismissal

In a way I'm happy for the guy. Not having to work for owners who would do this type of thing will be a much better situation for him. And if he gets hired for next year, he'll be making double money. Yup, set for life. Good for him.
Nor will the fact he got the most out of guys who were deemed hard to work with in Cousins/Gay and a guy who pretty much everyone including myself was prepared to give up on in Ben, the development and ability to control players like Rudy and connect with Cousins and make a team that has not ever played defense into a decent defensive team tells you everything you need to know.I think Malone will be a coach nexy year no doubt about it. The record he squeezed out of the Kings with the talent level won't go unnoticed.
It's unfortunate Pete and Mullin's ego got in the way of winning. They spent so much time convincing Vivek that Malone's style of playing wouldn't be conducive to winning, but the hot start undermined their philosophy.
Finally good thing happens, because he doesn't care about this franchise.Jason Jones delivering the most true statements of anyone right now. People like Napear and Carmichael Dave want to try to talk fans into this being good and trusting the guys in charge. No thanks

grant is a mouthpiece. dave is not too far behind.
Yeah but the encouraging thing to me is that inside Dave has been beating the drum on twitter about George Karl. So maybe they really will get that done.
I'm currently feeling out my season ticket partners for their feelings about renewing. I have perfect seats in the current arena, pretty decent priority for the new arena, and I'm hoping to get my partners' blessing to just forget the whole thing - will just buy tickets a game at a time from desperate scalpers instead. That is, unless they hire George Karl or Rick Adelman before the deadline for that decision comes up. One of the partners has indicated a thumbs down (agrees with abandoning the tix) ... I'm really interested to see if either of the other two say "no - wait - don't - they must have a wonderful plan".
I don't think I'm the only STH who feels this way - not by a long shot. That's how bad I think Pete D'Allesandro has peed all over my team with this firing. Just not gonna write a $10K check to this freaking bunch of clowns. Not gonna. And not that my personal membership matters that much, but I think Vivek is going to realize pretty soon if he hasn't already, that he has been advised to make a colossal blunder here in basketball AND PR terms. If he was planning on pricey PSL's for the best seats, well lotsa luck with that now V. And maybe he will fire the gerbil over it.
Bottom line he has got to hire George Karl or Rick Adelman to make this go away. A season of interim Ty Corbin is going to cost him good will and real money.
anybody wanna put wager on when big cuz will demand a trade? he did it w/ westfail and he won't put up w/ bs from another lame duck coach.
How do you know Cousins had a talk with Tyrone after the game?
It was reported after the game via a tweet. I think it was Jones or Cunningham.
Are we sure that we want PDA to make a panic hire in early January if it ends up being crummy and he isn't going to fire his third coach when things go bad because he's effectively signing his own pink slip at the end of that year? That sounds fine if you don't want Corbin and want PDA to go ... but how you get there means the Kings will be starting totally over.
