We need to send the front office a message. Stop going to games and stop buying merchandise .

I'm not gonna stop going this year. I paid too much for ST. Just gonna suffer through it. After the season it's up to the FO to show me a plan. I don't care if team slowly gets better and I understand the direction...I can support that. But if it seems to not be going anywhere Id stop going. So figure it out kings!

Seriously. People will stop going when it becomes a waste of money and not worth the price of admission.
And PDA/Vivek seem intent on getting to that point ASAP.

From the game against the Nets I think your wish has already been granted. I feel like I personally know all 6 fans in attendance after they shared so much cameratime between them.
Throw in the fact the Kings don't even have another home game until February, by which time the debacle may have reached just stupid torches and pitchfork heights, and it may be covered.

No. This isn't the players fault. They have to be there, so I will be there, too, to support them. Even if I'm only 1 of Brick's 6. And honestly, attendance isn't great, but it hasn't been terrible either. I've actually been surprised how many do show up.
Of course, tickets are dirt cheap and many are given away.

Already have. haven't been to a game since the week Malone was fired, and that was only because family from out of town bought tickets so we could all go while they were visiting

are they trying to pull a maloof and move the team? maybe to san jose to be closer to their older brother gsw.

i might be tempted if they do a 90% off sale to get some floor seats and wear a paper bag over my head.
They cannot move the team. They have a 30-year deal with Sacramento.
I'm out of area but I still agree with this. The players didn't ask for this.

Why don't local news talk about how crappy the Kings are? Wouldn't additional pressure help light a fire under FO's rears?

Don't tempt him. Less fans in the arena means more oxygen for the players. More oxygen for the players means they can run at a quicker pace.

I went from watching every game, to catching highlights some of the time, not there yet OP.
I believe the ownership has the best intentions, even if the results recently are bad.

I watched very game to start the season, when i missed a game wi would watch highlights. Now I don't watch games or highlights. I had no clue about klay Thompson until the morning after.
I am frustrated like everyone else, but there is a plan. They are clearly tanking the season because there is absolutely no reason to have success when a potentially high draft pick is on the line and the playoffs are absolutely out of the question.
The FO is putting everyone involved to the test....from players to fans....and it is starting to wear collectively. Four moves ahead is simple....fire a popular coach, replace him with a chump, retain the draft pick, and hire a coach who can take you to the level of success that ownership has promised to fans. Things need to get a little ugly before they get better.
Vivek's/PDA's perceived incompetence will either be confirmed or denied this offseason with the next coaching hire and subsequent additions to the bench. I'm not ready to boycott or not renew. Sorry, but a poorly timed coach firing and short-lived dumpster fire isn't going to make me jump.

I think we tried to do this a few times during the late aughts but nothing came to fruition.
Unfortunately I'm in NY now, but consider my contribution "not going to the Knicks game on Monday":

That's not a contribution, that's just common sense.
Your theory doesn't sound so bad. except we have NO REASON to believe in it.
Why would they not tell us they are planning that and instead talk about NBA 3.0 and pushing the pace?
Why would they say style over wins, if it's only about getting a top pick?
Why would you play Reno like you do, instead of bettering young talent?
Why put Corbin incharge when beside playing losing basketball it seems like he is going out of his way to not develop our young guys?
Why give your finally winning team, losing habits?
WHY pee OFF THE FANBASE?
Maybe you are seeing something different than me, but I don't see a reason (except wishful thinking) for you to think this is a test by the FO, and if it is- they souldn't test a franchise like ours. If Mitch Kupchak tells Laker fans to trust him, I'm not sure I would but I can get why- he earned that. PDA never earned that- he has no right to test us.
Not testing loyalty, but patience. Franchises do this constantly. Four moves ahead can't be what fans want today. The goal has always been to be a contender in 2016 when the new arena opens. My theory may be way off but ownership has shown they are willing to spend, acquire talent, and not concede to what fans want (see IT).
I think something favorable coaching-wise in in the works
