Look again. Amick is backtracking on the whole deal, first pointing out that he didn't write the headline.
This morning's Bee - just like the Bee on numerous occasions - goes for the sensational at the expense of a nice guy who just happened to be frustrated IMHO.
where?

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Mikki Moore walked down the hall to rejoin his Kings teammates Tuesday night in the Izod Center, his forlorn expression not reflecting the otherwise satisfied mood of his teammates after a rare road win.
The Kings forward was quick to share his feelings of frustration, having contributed four points and five rebounds in 32 minutes in his first return to New Jersey since his breakout 2006-07.
"It's nice to get the win, but I expected more from our coaching staff," Moore said. "You can write that, because I told them that on the bench. I said, 'It was nice to get the "W", but I just expected too much of y'all.'"
After tying his career high with 24 points in Philadelphia on Friday, Moore has scored a combined 10 points in the two games since while hitting 4 of 12 shots. He said his recent play has been affected by a finger injury to point guard Beno Udrih.
"Recently it's been like (that) because Beno is hurt," he said. "Beno said he doesn't have feeling in his finger, so he hasn't been aggressive in shooting the ball and that's a part of me getting open. John (Salmons) found me a couple of times open. I forced a jump shot and I hit it, but other than that, there was nothing else."
