Welcome Devin Carter

[reptilexcq2]

I told ya all Carter is going to be special. It is the ONLY reason I am tuning to watch after firing Brown. I actually don't want Doug to take him...I think he will learn to be better against Brown.

ummm…. I think you should pay attention to this new and improved Kings team.

They can become something very special.

this is actually where the momentum of the game completely swung.

That's confidence and not being afraid of the moment. Carter is going places.

I was super stoked to see Kim English, Devin's coach at Providence College, in the stands tonight next to Wes. Kim played at Mizzou, and he is to Mizzou what Doug Christie is to Sacramento...a beloved True Son who represents the best of who your program is. He played under Mike Anderson and Frank Haith, did a stint with the Pistons, and a couple of years in the Euro League.

Knowing who Devin's mentor is makes me even more excited about his potential. If he blows up, I wonder if English might get an assistant coaching opportunity with the Kings? My Mizzou heart can see him taking over when Christie retires after multiple championships, but I suppose it's possible that I'm getting ahead of myself...

In the live action of this play last night, I saw him mouth "Ok, here we go" as he came across half court. He had made up his mind that he had a flow going and this was his time

Crazy - Mike Brown might still be coaching the Kings if this rookie would have been healthy from Day 1.

Crazy - Mike Brown might still be coaching the Kings if this rookie would have been healthy from Day 1.

Or this rookie would never have seen the floor. And if he did, and made any sort of mistake, would have been denigrated, while sitting on the bench DNP-CD for the next several games. Count on it. Carter is fortunate his confidence and psyche were not damaged by playing for Brown.

This team is alive under Christie rather than "death by a thousand cuts" under Brown.
