But...why?

Something else must have happened behind the scenes. Dude was exceeding expectations with this team, IMO. Wtf.

Sacramento has fired coach Mike Malone, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

That doesn't seem quite fair. Wonder if something else was up.
Disgusting.

Queens take the L. Again.

[Smook A.]

Kings had their best start in years (Before DMC got sick). This move doesn't make any sense...

[BurningHammer]

Kinda harsh, but if Kings can find someone else that fit the current team more than go ahead.

[BasedTom]

What the actual ****? Did he not exceed expectations? Or was he always due to be out and that is why this seems so out of left field? Do the Kings already have an agreement with a top candidate? Have they conceded that the west is too much of a battleground and that they're better off back tanking than in purgatory?

I thought this was some bagelred shit, but it's 100% real, and very interesting

Unless they have another big name waiting, what's the point. In before Mark Jackson :facepalm

[bdreason]

Something else has to be behind this.

[bdreason]

I wonder if Kings are going to make a major trade that Malone doesn't agree with.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

What piece would cause that? They aren't trading DMC. Everyone else is meh.

And who out there can they hire right now?

[T_L_P]

Corbin is one of the WOAT coaches.

In b4 Vivek hires Vinny Del Negro :roll:

[Ariza4three]

Calling it right now: lance to Sacramento

You never know. Maybe they told Malone they're going to trade DMC.

That would be such a Kings thing to do. Add another offensive player, regardless if it fits into the system or not.

Woj saying it's was b/c of (retardedly unreasonable) expectations. Word also is Malone and GM D'Alessandro didn't get along.

Guess it goes to show, this is Pete D'Alessandro's team. Which means it's going to suck until he himself is fired by Vivek...

edit:
but maybe it wasn't quite Pete's team...
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/sources--kings-fire-coach-michael-malone-061241211.html
appears both Vivek and Pete wanted Kings to play uptempo ala Don Nelson and George Karl, both of whom D'Alessandro worked with. And Malone did not want to do the JSmoove trade, which Vivek and Pete did. So maybe Malone had more pull than I think...

It's dumb b/c Vivek hand-picked Malone...what was he expecting?

[SwishSquared]

Updates from Woj:

Owner Vivek Ranadive has wanted the Kings to play a faster style of basketball, and D'Alessandro – who has worked with Don Nelson in Golden State and Karl in Denver – has sought a similar style. Ranadive has been a hands-on owner and expected the Kings to compete for the playoffs this year. After a 9-6 start, star center DeMarcus Cousins had been lost for nine games with viral meningitis but his absence couldn't save Malone.

Over the summer, Malone, who had been hired before D'Alessandro on June 3, 2013, had believed that a slow start could cost him his job, league sources said. Management interviewed candidates for his top assistant job, but Malone ultimately hired his preferred candidate, Corbin, the ex-Utah Jazz coach. Malone doesn't believe Corbin undermined him, sources said.

While Kings management wants to play faster, Corbin's style of play as head coach of the Jazz doesn't suggest he's the ideal candidate. Nevertheless, those are Corbin's marching orders now.

Another possible long-term candidate for the Kings: ex-Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro. Del Negro led the Bulls and Clippers to the playoffs, and has experience in coaching young stars Derrick Rose and Blake Griffin that could be beneficial in continuing the development of Cousins.

Malone had disagreed with ownership's pursuit of a Josh Smith trade in July, and made his position known to Ranadive, league sources said.
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/sources--kings-fire-coach-michael-malone-061241211.html

So apparently Vinny is in the running for when they seek a full time coach. I'd have to dig up the source but apparently Kings have reservations about Lance. Would lol though if they trade expirings + McLemore for him.

One thing to also consider here is that Vivek had playoff expectations and since they've fallen behind but aren't super bad, they're in danger of losing their first rounder. That pick is only top 10 protected, else it conveys to Chicago. Maybe Vivek is trying to tank now? Idk. Totally bizarre. Apparently Cousins is a big supporter of his, so you have to expect that he's mad.

I'm wondering if Malone sits out the year to try to land another gig over the summer or joins a staff as soon as he can as an assistant.

EDIT: Sorry for double-posting the link, was a tad slow writing my post.

Yeah, Vivek is truly an idiot. I love his passion and dedication. But he needs to get a better understanding of the sport of basketball and the nature of the NBA. And be ****ing patient, if there really was a win # expectation he set. I wonder how much Vivek, Pete, and even Chris Mullin had in the say of this decision.

As for Malone...good question. I think he'll probably sit out if he's good on $$. But I could see him going to another young team as an assistant if he feels compelled to and gets an offer to be the defensive specialist coach. But I'll assume he may still get HC offers in the near future.

Either way I wish him the best. Was probably the best coach Kings hired since Adelman.

[bdreason]

So they fired Malone because his team plays defense and tries to win games. These kind of moves are embarrassing for the NBA.

[oarabbus]

:biggums:

Malone got a RAW deal

[andremiller07]

Malone didn't want to play small ball he wanted his teams to play half court and defend which is the strength of our only good player.

Malone didn't want Josh Smith the FO did

Team didn't tell Cousins about the decision

Ben Mclemore, Rudy Gay, Cousins and Darren Collison played there best basketball when healthy team was 7-2 including wins over the Clippers/Portland/Chicago/Spurs/Suns (at there home). Were 9-6 with Cousins healthy.

The Kings are officially back to what we are the last 8 years and honestly it's only going to get worse.

They want to play uptempo ball which means they are not going to build around Cousins which could result in him being moved and this year we will probably unless we tank hard lose our lottery pick to the Bulls.

Great times ahead :facepalm

Sorry Andre, seems like the basketball Gods really hate Sacramento.

Look on the bright side, there is no way they will trade Cousins for Ibaka and Perkins. :lol

8th seed or bust. :bowdown:

If the Kings trade Ben Mclemore and whatever else for Lance Stephenson I'm ****ing done.

I specifically asked Ranadive how many wins when he said last yr wasn’t about Ws & Ls & this year is He replied that “had to be better” #NBA

again, I love Vivek's passion and commitment... But be realistic you f'in egomaniac and understand the NBA/basketball first. This isn't a software company. This is the same guy who wanted the Kings to play 4-man D and have 1 cherrypicker... :facepalm

Vivek needs to let go/ease up before he learns about the NBA. Not during and not after.

[LilEddyCurry]

Why would they do this?? After their best start in ages and also loosing Demarcus Cousins for 9 games out of 20 ish. When I think of the Kings owner all i hear in my mind is "Stauskas, Stauskas, Stauskas" in an indian accent.

word. who has a win/loss standard after 24 games? then factor in you missed your best player for the last nine? a little bit rash.

sorry andre, but seems like you knew this may have been coming if FO disagreed w/ malone on major issues. this doesn't really seem to make sense. i actually cringed that VDN might be in the running for head coach. how is that possible? i still love IT2 though, i think he's such a spark plug and underrated playmaker. he reminds me of a more efficient, but less explosive monta

If you asked me at the start of the season would you take a 11-13 record after 24 games with the team fully healthy for the 24 games I would have jumped all over it. Kings up until this recent stretch of playing scrubby teams (which we all lost to since we can't win without Cuz) had one of the most brutal schedules in the NBA.

Not to mention we were robbed in Memphis and up by over 20 points on Dallas on there home floor. This has nothing to do with results it's purely a thing where the owner/Gm want to play that Denver Nuggets basketball from a few years back instead of the smash mouth basketball that worked while the team was healthy.

But the most confusing thing about all of this is if they wanted to play uptempo basketball the Kings literally traded away every single player built for uptempo basketball in Reke/Thomas/Thornton/Patterson/Jimmer to get guys who play half court basketball in Gay/Landry/Reggie Evans.

Mike Malone was the only thing keeping Jason Thompson even playing mins (guy's been one of the BEST post defenders in the NBA this year has who's who's list of PF's/C he's shut down) and before Malone came Thompson was a average defender. Player development was a none issue when you consider our starting 5 were all playing the best basketball of there lives.

playing coach Boogie?

[dunksby]

Man finally a coach who can manage Cousins and put his head in the game and they fire him! Malone had Kings playing such great basketball, Kings have been the only team other than OKC I have watched consistently this year.

[Sportal]

Has to be former Coach of the Year, George Karl... Who was then fired out of absolutely nowhere after the Nuggets dumped on the NBA for 3rd(?), was it? In the West.

Personally, if I were a Kings fan, and I saw Del Negro heading through the door, just... Abandon ship.

There's just more to this story though, surely? They could be what, 13-11 if they didn't lose those two games where they were 20 points up. They don't even have Cousins right now and they're still relatively competitive :/.

[QuebecBaller]

Shaq will be the new coach :D

This might be he first time in ISH history that a coach was fired with a the fans still on his side.

Usually people are complaining about a coach for months (or years) before they get fired.

To fire Malone for Corbin or Vinny Del Negro.... LMAO

[senelcoolidge]

Kings will just keep sucking. Malone was improving them even with the recent losing streak.

[Thorn]

if I didn't know any better I'd think the Maloofs were back

watch Malone rejoin the Warriors and completely piss off the entire league while Sacramento trades Cousins for someone like Jordan Hill and 2 second rounders

and Vinny Del Negro?

imo their misguided strategy is to tank another couple of years thinking cousins will stay with the team. .... well that's the only logical play.

BUT a team of
chucker uptempo pg
mclemore
gay
josh smith
cousins

is chucktastic and totally prone to epic implosions.:roll:

[QuebecBaller]

PIstons fans everywhere hoping this means Smith to Sacto!

Smith to Sactown
Lance to Detroit
and
Who to Charlotte?

[Eric Cartman]

Cousins can't possibly be happy with this.

[ballup]

Why does Vivec want a faster paced game, to improve ticket sales? He can't possibly think that style is better suited for the team when its best bigman is a mammoth.

[Hey Yo]

Some NBA execs curious about Chris Mullin's desire to coach Kings: "All he has to decide is that's what he wants and job is his," a GM says.

Malone got boogie to calm down and McLemore turned in the right direction.
Im just dumbfounded by this


I thought for sure the first coach casualty would have been Monty

[Levity]

absolutely retarded. :facepalm

malone brought a great culture and discipline to the team. glad to see mgmt wants to throw all of it out and shoot for a sub .500 season, yet again

Malone was doing a GREAT job this season.

[3peated]

i wiush this team would have relocated

[bdreason]

So apparently the owner or GM wanted Malone to run the 5 v 4 + cherrypicker BS they're running in the D-League, and Malone refused. If the Kings try this strategy in the NBA, they're going to be the laughing stock of the league.

if true, that owner is soooooo fcking retarded. the kings (when healthy), were in contention for a second half seed in the playoffs.

this rec league shit he wants to implement WILL NOT work in the NBA

:biggums: :wtf:

didn't malone sleep with the owner or gm's daughter or some shit? I seen the rumor somewhere....

That would be such a Kings thing to do. Add another offensive player, regardless if it fits into the system or not.


It worked for the Portland Trailblazers of the late 90s/early 2000s.

[Dbrog]

Didn't they only start to lose after Cousins got sick? It shows how dominant a season he was actually having. How the coach is punished for figuring out how to win out west with the NBA's rejects is beyond me. This is honestly just insane. Fck the new owner! Now watch as your team reaches the lotto again and Cousins walks to a rival team and shits in your face. I know I'll be laughing...

[Fire Colangelo]

Really hoping they keep this core, and not make any stupid trades like Josh Smith/Lance.....

[Joshumitsu]

And now the Kings go back to being the laughingstock of the NBA.

In all seriousness though, it probably was due to internal issues rather than a lack of competence by Mike Malone.

[Myth]

so what? twitter has changed the way news speads, even if they had wanted to tell him differently he still would have found out through twitter. Also, sick of the idea that the "star" player of the franchise deserves to know about and have input on front office decisions. that shit is stupid. besides, he just signed an extension, so hes there for the longish haul.

[Dr. Cheesesteak]

Why does Vivec want a faster paced game, to improve ticket sales? He can't possibly think that style is better suited for the team when its best bigman is a mammoth.
Word is he is essentially using GSW as a template since its his only reference point of experience. They run fast paced, they improved greatly over a year, etc etc... SO WHY CANT THE KINGS??! Again, as we all know, Vivek needs to understand the game/league. :facepalm


looking forward to hearing jerry reynolds take on this tues vs OKC

He was on the Rise Guys this afternoon and I caught the end of it. I would've loved to hear it all (where he's usually more blunt. Wonder if they have podcast available). But at the end he sounded fairly...defeated. Like it's just something he has to accept. :(

:oldlol:

Malone wouldn't listen to him and play 4 on 5 defence.

:roll: :roll: :roll: Imagine the spurs ball movement on 5v4, FG% would be ridiculous. And you just need to keep someone at the top of the three to drop back to prevent cherry picking.

Edit: I wonder what Cousins thinks of this great idea.

i still dont see how MGMT think cousin's can run small ball/fast paced offense. hes one of the handful of players in the NBA that has that old school mentality. hes gonna end up playing 28 minutes a game out of pure fatigue if hes forced to run coast to coast all game long
