Quite the contrary. The front office meddling with coaching is EXACTLY how the quality of our product was trashed internally this very season.
They called Sim up, they advertised it. But then a real game broke out, with a real NBA center putting up a historic statline in a near win, and there just wasn't time to fart around with a guy with 1 practice under his belt. If it had been a blowout, then much more likely.

This is an absolute non-issue.
There's a simple reason why Sim didn't play against NO - because there wasn't a dead minute when the Kings could afford getting even one more point behind than they were.
The Kings really wanted to win against the Pelicans.
I don't think they care about winning vs the Jazz or the T-Pups, so it's a virtual guarantee he'll get minutes against them.

Well... GERBILS eat beans, so vanilla bean is out
And french vanilla goes with coffee, which affects your heart rate and you might need a PACE-maker, so we don't want that
So obviously vanilla is best... but it is also the shortest name... so is it a MIDGET CHUCKER???
They ALL lose. It must be a conspiracy!

sim may or may not receive game minutes as the season winds down, but oftentimes call-ups from the d-league serve the purpose of allowing an nba head coach to get a closer look at a player via practice minutes. george karl isn't going to make the trip to reno to peek in on that sh**show known as the bighorns, but he can run sim through some drills with the kings and decide if it's worth pursuing further...
Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: Crush your enemies cocoa beans and vanilla pods. See them driven prepared before you. Hear the lamentations of their women those without.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.

Many teams bring up D league players as the season winds down and Sim was brought up for a 10 look at. So what’s the problem? The Kings are not going to the payoffs so if Sim gets in and is prone to turn the ball over, can’t score or can’t keep up with the NBA pace then it is a good time to find out. At 7’6 he reminds me of 7’5 Shawn Bradley of the Mavs year ago. He was skinny as a rail but had the height advantage to score easy put backs, grab rebounds and block some shots. Heck, maybe we’ll see Sim plug up that big hole we have letting small guards continuously drive in for easy lay ups. Maybe we have a bench big who can really help. If not, it’s only for 7 more games. Earlier, I quickly lost faith with Hassan Whitesides. He dropped out of sight for a couple of seasons and roars back as the starting Miami center. Don’t want to make the same mistake here without a good look at Sim.
