The argument can be made that this group had a limited off season and limited practice to make things work. We probably have to give it 5-10 more games before we can say this team stinks
I'm speaking out of frustration right now, part of it is sitting through the past 6 years of rebuilding and having hope each season that the next will be better. This season has been a major letdown
After watching Rickey Rubio’s 18 and 12 game tonight and watching him play several games this year, I would trade Tyreke for him without thinking twice
The whole problem is this God Damn organization and the
idea of bringing in individual rookies who are “stars” and hyping them up instead of trying to get the pieces for the team. And look where that led us.
They are going to ruin every young player who comes onto this team, until the maloofs sell the team and the new owner blows the entire organization up to start from scratch
I am really feeling bad for our players. In my view, I think a lot of very bad decisions were made by the organization to get them to this point. So, I don’t hold our players entirely responsible for tonight’s outcome.
I like how some people want to try and focus on Tyreke
As if he was the main problem this game, and not you know, the entire team stinking it up.
At least ’reke has had a few good games in a row. Lets just jock this one to what it was, a horrible exhibition of shooting by players getting paid money to make shots.
This has been going on for YEARS. A lot of trust has been placed onto Petrie’s hands. We’ve watched other teams build up while we still linger on the bottom.
No, I'm at the point where it's obvious what's wrong with the team
so I can’t even get frustrated with the players and coaches
With Petrie? Sure, he’s built a horrible team and has gotten a pass because he put together high octane Kings team early in the 00’s
He’s built a team with individuals, and instead of getting better complementary pieces he’s tacked on more selfish players. The team is set up to fail. This isn’t just the players or coaches faults, fire the coach, but nothing will be fixed until you FIRE Petrie.
I honestly feel like there’s two players I see playing hard and show some sort of passion but one is only a decent role player and the other is a rookie. JT and Isiah.

Jimmered. - January 14, 2012
The msvs are playing almost as poorly
As we are.
Lotusprime - January 14, 2012 via mobile
Too bad Dirk and their big guns are chilling.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Hire Sloan. And blow up this team save for a couple guys.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
they never set screens for Jimmer
sacman - January 14, 2012
Jimmer can't even hit his open shots.
This whole team is blah.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
perhaps his shooting skills were a little overated
ala quincy douby
sacman - January 14, 2012
Or perhaps everyone who comes to play for us is cursed
By the ghost of peja stojacovic.
Lotusprime - January 14, 2012 via mobile
He has missed a lot of gimmes
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
If we get this down to fifteen by th fourth
We might have a shot.

Unless you’re too lazy to change or can’t find the remote…

At least Quincy was good
In practice.
Lotusprime - January 14, 2012 via mobile
As opposed to Jimmer:
Good in theory.
unfair weather - January 14, 2012
whats the shooting %

JZiadeh - January 14, 2012

ElRonToro - January 14, 2012

Was 18.something @ half
CoolFinity - January 14, 2012
Lol @ MTs shot
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
Ouch.
Mavs announcers just called the Mavs poor play in the quarter Kings-istis
unfair weather - January 14, 2012
mavs announcers

sacman - January 14, 2012
MT hates passing
Jimmered. - January 14, 2012
we need isaiah
Jimmered. - January 14, 2012
We almost have more points this quarter
Than we did the first half.
Lotusprime - January 14, 2012 via mobile
This is like being a Cubs fan.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Way worse
CoolFinity - January 14, 2012
MT is a joke
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
Just tuned in, but seems to be going poorly...
Whats going on this time?
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
Jerry just answered my question...
Salmons is the team assist leader. FML
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
I hope Petrie goes crazy at the deadline
CoolFinity - January 14, 2012
Yeah, we need to make major moves.
Only Cousins should be safe.
Ichiban - January 14, 2012
Think we'll get to 60?
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Worst team in franchise history?
We just scored the lowest point total for a half in franchise history
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
In Petrie We Trust
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
Why?
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
MT keep firing it
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
Mavs:
Playing their fans right out of free burgers.
unfair weather - January 14, 2012
Explain lol
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
Damn...
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
That was a great dunk by Vince
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
Garcia makin Carter look like jordan
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
The Mavs are a great team.
DiegoKing - January 14, 2012
The Kings are a disgrace of a team
DiegoKing - January 14, 2012
Did JT at least start over JJ this time?
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
The Rockets are an OK team
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
At least this team isn't the 08-09 Kings
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
It could be worse
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
How?
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
This team is worse than the 08-09 team I mean
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
Was Natt the coach?
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
Yes
JZiadeh - January 14, 2012
That was the worst.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
It's starting to be up for debate I think
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
The argument can be made that this group had a limited off season and limited practice to make things work. We probably have to give it 5-10 more games before we can say this team stinks
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
you're kidding right?
DiegoKing - January 14, 2012
Not at all
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
This team is like Jekyl and Hyde
They stink it up, or they play ok.
chenp22 - January 14, 2012
That is a conundrum.
Slam_Dunk - January 16, 2012
at least the 09 team had the excuse of having very little talent
This team doesn’t. That makes it even worse IMO.
deadenddude - January 14, 2012
Talent wise we are good and the potential is definitely there. The 08-09 Kings did not have any promising talent outside of K-Mart
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
Unfortunately
theyre the 11-12 Kings
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
reply fail
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
Join the Kings
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
hahaha
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
I have a sweet shooting touch, too bad im not 6 ft.
KINGKENJI - January 14, 2012
22.9 lowest fg% in NBA history
we are close
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
For one game or the season?
I hate that I have to ask that
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
game
with those 2 baskets we are up to 26%
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
Nice assist by Fredette to Reke
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
Evans just took 5 steps
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
Yi has more points than Tyreke
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
Now i think im ok to signing allen iverson and gilbert arenas
at least its gonna be entertaining in the locker room.
KINGKENJI - January 14, 2012
those are the dregs
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
add stephon marbury too
KINGKENJI - January 14, 2012
At what point should Petrie address the fans?
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
Why flame the fans?
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
I see what you did there
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
What is record low for 2nd half thread comments for StR?
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
Good night Kings fan, youre more entertaining that our own Kings team
KINGKENJI - January 14, 2012
why don't Thomas play??
Jimmered. - January 14, 2012
Hes playing right now
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
wow
i hope we didnt draft the next adam morrison
sacman - January 14, 2012
NOOOO... JIMMER..
TURNOVER PRONE
Jimmered. - January 14, 2012
Jimmer
Jimmer should just keep shooting until he breaks out of his funk. This slump is getting ridiculous.
RajB - January 14, 2012
He will never break out of his funk on this team
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
The way he's shooting
We’d probably be losing 35-93.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
60 Points!
Free tickets for Kings fans for next home game? It’s the only way they’ll sell.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Their fans are heading out.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
This is horrible. I don't know how this team can be this horrible. At least be competitive and keep the game close
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
They can't see close from where they are tonight
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
I'm speaking out of frustration right now, part of it is sitting through the past 6 years of rebuilding and having hope each season that the next will be better. This season has been a major letdown
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
Good lord... it's been 6 years?
swoosh91 - January 14, 2012
Is it too late to start over?
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
Thompson and Salmons
the only 2 shooting over 40%
ElRonToro - January 14, 2012
Franchise Worst
Shooting performance ever by the Kings.
Look at us! We’re breaking records.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Oh Hai
You guys are sick.
chenp22 - January 14, 2012
GO KINGS!!!!!!!!
CLopez63 - January 14, 2012
Stop Wearing White T-shirts under your Kings jerseys.
Wear a Black one.
Vinson916 - January 14, 2012
2-19 from beyond the arc....wow.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
IT caught from behind for 4 th turnover
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
Well, we're almost at the 40 point mark where I can post an angry gif.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Actually, I'll just save it for the post game thread.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Just keep lowering that shooting% guys...
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
Never thought I would say this, but
After watching Rickey Rubio’s 18 and 12 game tonight and watching him play several games this year, I would trade Tyreke for him without thinking twice
EJ08 - January 14, 2012
Yup.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
me too
deadenddude - January 14, 2012
but according to Grant
Rubio is soft and his MOM cuts his steak for him. lol Rubio is a soft player Kings didn’t want to go that direction anymore
/chasm
Apoet - January 14, 2012
We could bring Bring Old Lady Westphal back
To cut his meat
EJ08 - January 14, 2012
I thought Offense
Wasn’t going to a problem for this Kings team :/
Vinson916 - January 14, 2012
they have no problem offending their fans
deadenddude - January 14, 2012
So what about that pride?
rubenho - January 14, 2012
Hey, we held them under 100.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
60 fucking points
Pdidd - January 14, 2012
Lowest since '91
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
Boycotting Kings till they put together 2 wins in a row...
Lucky.S.Nat - January 14, 2012
See you next year?
rubenho - January 14, 2012
Check back in 2015
prowseinthehouse - January 14, 2012
How about boycotting until they get new owners...
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
And tied for the fewest points ever in Sac era.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Well
I think it’s safe to say I’m going to have post traumatic stress disorder after watching that entire game
pldailey - January 14, 2012
Who are you, Garry St Jean?
EJ08 - January 14, 2012
Good night guys. See you next game
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
I'm waiting for Smart's remarks
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
The whole problem is this God Damn organization and the
idea of bringing in individual rookies who are “stars” and hyping them up instead of trying to get the pieces for the team. And look where that led us.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
IMO They ruined
Tyreke by not coaching him in his first two years and letting him do whatever the hell he wanted
EJ08 - January 14, 2012
I agree
They are going to ruin every young player who comes onto this team, until the maloofs sell the team and the new owner blows the entire organization up to start from scratch
dampania - January 14, 2012 via iPhone app
agree big time

rubenho - January 14, 2012
Well
lets get a Win VS Indiana Monday
JZiadeh - January 14, 2012
We play the Mavs Monday.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
they play the T'Wolves
JZiadeh - January 14, 2012
Were both wrong
JZiadeh - January 14, 2012
Damn it.
MavsI meant T-Wolves. I would have been right too. Shit. Haha.HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Minnesota on Monday, Indiana on Wednesday
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
The T'Wolves game, this thread is gonna be hard to read
Its either gonna be “Tyreke is the greatest” or 300 hundred comments saying “Should have drafted Rubio” with a couple of “F*** John Salmons”
JZiadeh - January 14, 2012
Solutions?
NBA Mercy rule? Contraction? I’m being dramatic, but that was awful.
stalbaum - January 14, 2012
As bad as this game has been...
I am really feeling bad for our players. In my view, I think a lot of very bad decisions were made by the organization to get them to this point. So, I don’t hold our players entirely responsible for tonight’s outcome.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
this team needs an enema!

mmarcum - January 14, 2012
I like how some people want to try and focus on Tyreke

At least ’reke has had a few good games in a row. Lets just jock this one to what it was, a horrible exhibition of shooting by players getting paid money to make shots.
Apoet - January 14, 2012
I think you are being too easy on the situation.
This has been going on for YEARS. A lot of trust has been placed onto Petrie’s hands. We’ve watched other teams build up while we still linger on the bottom.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
No, I'm at the point where it's obvious what's wrong with the team
so I can’t even get frustrated with the players and coaches
With Petrie? Sure, he’s built a horrible team and has gotten a pass because he put together high octane Kings team early in the 00’s

Apoet - January 14, 2012
I take back what I said. I am in agreement with you about Petrie.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
I wish we could fire the Maloofs first
Then fire Petrie
dampania - January 14, 2012 via iPhone app
That's the big question -
How to get rid of the Maloofs without them leaving town?
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
Bring back Westphal
his blowouts were more competative
deadenddude - January 14, 2012
Let Petrie coach this mess for obe game, let him see what he´s done.
rubenho - January 14, 2012
No words from Smart?
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
darn I was looking forward to it too
but i can’t blame him
deadenddude - January 14, 2012
Yeah. He has more pressing issues in dealing with the locker room morale.
Slam_Dunk - January 14, 2012
While you all exaggerate all over the place, excuse me whilst I...
Apoet - January 14, 2012
Couldn´t have said it any better
rubenho - January 14, 2012
Petrie with Coachie as his lead assistant
EJ08 - January 14, 2012
Coach should drill them all night
Until he gets them playing like a team. I don’t care how exhausted they are.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Agreed. This is a young team. There is absolutely no reason this team should be looking like a bunch of tired players out there.
Reke_Havoc13 - January 14, 2012
Coach should bring in Don Amechi
And let him drill them all
EJ08 - January 14, 2012
They're not built like a team though
there’s only so much he can tell these guys
I honestly feel like there’s two players I see playing hard and show some sort of passion but one is only a decent role player and the other is a rookie. JT and Isiah.
Apoet - January 14, 2012
...
SierraSpartan - January 14, 2012
Well, the Mavs shot our lights out, comparatively.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
Woyale With Cheese...
SierraSpartan - January 14, 2012
"How'd you get here?"
“Producer’s a friend of mine. He sent a Teamster to drop me off”
“Aha. Well, that’s the way it goes”.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
The Postgame Talk is so stupid, downplaying Rubio and the Mavs
“Heard about him, but have to see him for myself, we’ll match up well, but it’s all about who wants it more?”
We’re outclassed. Go look on YouTube, talkshow bubs. We’re in trouble.
HarveySpecter - January 14, 2012
It is very clear that WE NEED POINT GUARD
Jimmered. - January 14, 2012
It is very clear that WE NEED A GENERAL MANAGER...
who won’t trade away the point guard that we had without getting an upgrade first.
