    This Kings team is still haveing a hard time coming together. Their record and play baffles me when I think of all the quality players the Kings have. What needs to be done? As great as Adelman has been for this team for as many years as hes done it, I think its time for a coaching change. Keep Pete Carril and all the assistant coaches, but find a coach that will put some kind of stress on defense. Also, Brian Skinner flat out has to get minutes. Why Adelman refuses to let Skinner see the light of day is beyond me. Skinner is the only shot blocking interior defense this team has. Get a couple athletes, get a coach that will put some stress on defense and give the team a little time to build chemistry and I think we'd be watching a much better team. What do yall think? What needs to be done?

    Trade selfish players like Bonzi and Shareef for a decent center who can come off the bench. The off season moves are the ones killing the team. There is a reason Shareef's team have always struggled. There is no chemistry whatsoever with this team. No one seems to see eye-eye with each other. I think its about time to start Garcia and see what he's got. He may be your next Christie. I can't stress enough to get more shots and playing time for Kenny Thomas. He's the best 6th man you got.

    I dont understand why you said that. Bonzi has been our best player by far. Keep him. Hes playing the best ball of his career, rebounding like a mad-man and has caused no trouble off the court. Only one on the team worth talking about at the moment.

    He's filling in the stats with the help of the coaching staff and maintaining the good boy image to get a good contract next season. He may not even be with the Kings next year. That's not good for the team.

    they need bench and defensive specialists
    losing bobby really hurt them a lot

    i think should concentrate more on how to deal away stojakovic right now along with oldinjury prone big men like corliss williamson and skinner and add depth to their team


    kings now want a team built for the long term, not just these two years
    hopefully petrie is smart enough to know this....that depth matters
