The first one I didn't get enough options so I will post it again.. Please answer with how you feel in re: to the Natt situation.
 
I voted other - I had very few expectations of Kenny Natt once Theus was fired. I think he's an interim coach who is simply minding the store until the end of the season. I don't think he's done that badly ... as evidenced by Jason Thompson's improvement. This is a team in name only; pieces don't fit and at least a third of the roster knows they won't be back next year.

Once this season is over, I wish Kenny Natt all the luck in the world. Since head coaches pick their own assistants, I would be very surprised to see him return to one of the chairs further down the line.

The idea that he should be fired right now makes absolutely no sense to me.
 
I voted other. I don't think he has done a good job with getting the young guys their minutes like Bobby Brown and Spencer Hawes' decrease in PT. I also think he handled the Beno situation wrong. We had no locker room problems until he came along. That being said, he is just an intern and I doubt the new Head Coach keeps him on staff TBH.
 
He seems like a good guy and level headed, but COME ON! Play the youth! Why aren't Hawes and Brown getting much PT? Is Spencer still hurting? Spencer was kicking *** and taking names for a while and now he's hardly seeing the floor at all.

It's obvious that the Kings are not going to make the playoffs this year, so why so much time for the vets who will be gone soon? I'm fine if it's a directive from GP so he can shop some of them, but otherwise just pull what Miami did last year- call it a year, develop our young guys (and pull some up from d-league to evaluate talent), and get a good draft pick!

I have a real hard time watching this team suck while Miller/Salmons/Udrih hog the minutes. I have no problem watching losing games if I get to see the young guys play and develop.
