Rick Adelman wake up..

[kennadog]

Sampson is not going to turn this team around.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

He played 17 minutes total on the pre-season.

I'm going by his time with the Bobcats. It doesn't matter if the team was bad (though I don't like to say that) or an expansion team, the guy put up the numbers in limited minutes...

Like Jason Hart?

 

[Kings113]

Like Jason Hart?

Uh, no. He got much more PT there and started 54 times, along with having a full season with the team.

With Jason, he's said it himself a couple times this season, it's a new and different team and he's adjusting.

 

[BigSong]

Its not like theres much to lose at this point. Throw Sampson in the line up with some of the starters for some decent minutes and see what happens. If we lose 3 more games o well.

Sure he is.

 

[Kings113]

Sure he is.

Well, it's what he's said, and that usually comes when you're starting with a new team. Especially one like the Kings and their offense.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Sure he is.

Because it couldn't possibly be that he just plain sucks (as his career stats indicate) and just had one kinda-sorta "career" season...

[/sarcasm]

 

[SacDoug]

Adelman just said in the post game interview that he will be making changes. He didn't say what changes but I expect to see more of the bench or maybe even a change in the starters.

"Get back to the drawing board tomorrow", were his last words.

I think that was more of a plea to Petrie.

He's a journey-man, yup. But he doesn't suck on defense.

 

[KP]

he doesn't suck on defense.

But he's really not that great on Defense either. I've seen him make all kinds of defensive lapses, he makes plays on D(sometimes) but overall I think he hasn't lived up to his pre-season all-defensive hype either. Basically when he comes in it doesn't help, it hurts the team... period.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

He's certainly looked "sucky" enough on defense in the sixteen games I've had a chance to see... Of course, on a team like ours, it's easy for "stinky farty smelly" defense to look good when it's standing next to "****ty ****ty ****ty" defense.

 

[Kings113]

But he's really not that great on Defense either. Basically when he comes in it doesn't help, it hurts the team... period.

For the most part, not from what I've seen. He isn't "great" on d though.

As in scouring the want ads for a new job because he will be gone.

 

[Fear the Putin]

you see guys...

we put in skinner and corliss and they CONTRIBUTED

we didnt win, but we have something to work with now..

meaning get skinner and corliss off the bench

 

[Kings113]

Yup, I expect they'll play more.

 

[Padrino]

As in scouring the want ads for a new job because he will be gone.

yeah...cuz it'll be real hard for a coach with RA's outstanding record to find a new job.

 

[SacTownKid]

Does this mean Skinner may get PT???!!! I would love it, but I won't keep my hopes up.

 

[D-Mass]

yeah...cuz it'll be real hard for a coach with RA's outstanding record to find a new job.

He'd be picked up IMMEDIATELY

 

[bibbinator]

I say this as a Peja defender, the team looked a lot better when he didn't start.

I'd like to see him come off the bench, or start but play much fewer minutes.

They were gelling better without him. He has a liquifying effect that counteracts positive gel action.

 

[Kings113]

Rick's not gonna do it.

I think that would be a mistake. It was a mistake to think that with Webber and it's a mistake here. Sure we might have higher energy guys playing his minutes and the overall effort may be better, but we have a lower ceiling. You have to stick with your best players and make them gel. Or get them to produce enough so that they have good trade value.

this ****'s really funny! ace, my friend...that's all i've gotta say.

 

[Sirius]

Peja is not the sole reason we're losing games.

 

[VF21]

NO ONE said he was.

Peja is one of 13 reasons we're losing games, and that doesn't even count the performance of the opposing team.
