Yea these dudes today are as soft as cottenelle tissue compared to those players from the 80's and 90's. Buck Williams was one of the baddest dudes on the court too back then.

Kahn traded the Timberwolves 18th overall pick in 2012 for Chase Budinger, a 23-year-old athletic wing coming off of a season in which he shot 40 percent from three.

best move the Timberwolves have made in franchise history.
 
Damn KD went at someone they call the "Manimal" and ya'll are knocking him because he didn't go at Tony Allen? :lol: It's not like he went after Nate Wolters or Jordan Farmer.
 
Parsons and Hayward especially as of late have really surprised me. No wonder that Butler team was so good. Gordon Hayward is a baller.

True. What you think about Karl with the Kings?
Click to expand...
at this point, with how dysfunctional/terrible the front office looks, I just want them to get this team back on track.

George Karl's overall track record is a bit spotty, especially in the playoffs, but as a miserable fan of a terrible franchise, I will take a first round exit if it means the Kings show some signs of life and progress.

Now, after a year or two of failing in the playoffs, I would be open to moving on and finding a new coach.

This coaching hire has very little upside, because as of right now, if Karl is able to coach this team to a mere .500 record (let alone push for the 8th seed) then that will be viewed as a success by many, myself included (which is what Malone had accomplished this season, still baffling that the FO fired him
mean.gif
).... however if he falls short and its more of the same of what we have now, then obviously it was a huge huge mistake... a mistake this franchise cannot afford to make.

Overall, its an uninspiring move but I understand the hire; I'll keep my fingers crossed, my hopes low, and my expectations even lower.

NBA Legends @OfficialDrJ6 @WaltFrazier, Nate “Tiny” Archibald, Bernard King, & Chris Mullin to serve as #SpriteSlam judges! #NBAAllStarNYC

I can't decide whether its good, bad or indifferent that this judging panel is mostly made up of non-dunkers. They got the heavy NY connection going though, that's for sure.
 
I think Karl can bring some stability to the Kings over the next few years, or at least more than most coaches they could've hired.

I'm not saying he's the greatest coach, but he's respectable enough and should at least establish a sense of stability there by the time he leaves/is fired. It might be worth it. Between unexpectedly firing Malone then moving to Corbin who everyone knows was gonna get replaced at some point, even a little stability could pay off.

Jason Jones tweeted there are a lot of players in the locker room that don't want him though. Why? Is his reputation that bad that it affects what the players think?

who knows. there's been so many leaks it's unbelievable and impossible to figure out which ones to believe.

kind of like how suddenly everyone is under the impression that Cousins and/or his agent doesn't like Karl.  When they have said nothing like that. And Woj said today that that is not true. they have no issues with Karl they are just confused with the actions of the Kings FO (like everyone else is) and just want to have stability

kd such a nerd even when he's trying to be cool or hard..

Kings should get Karl.nobody great is going to Sacramento. Hell take you to the playoffs , might as well take what yall can get.
 
I like how everybody assumes Westbrook can floor anybody because of the way he plays.

Nene tossed his *** and didn't flinch when Westbrook tried to retaliate. 
 
Cousins and them just see how Karl sometimes throws his star moody players under the bus. He took a lot of cheap shots at Melo. But he was also the right coach for Melo at the time b/c he didn't coddle him.

Still, GK would def have the Kings in a good position though. He definitely knows his X & O's.

QFT. Besides, would a guy like Thibbs or even Scott Brooks come here? Hell naw.

the only question that remains, why the hell did it take so long to hire Karl??

i saw Gary Payton last night talking about it and he said Cousins plays with a fiery attitude like he did.  he said he likes Cousins demeanor because it reminds him of himself. and he said he would guarantee Cousins plays great for Karl
