Sacramento Kings

When news broke that the city of Seattle would possibly be getting an NBA team, the basketball community rejoiced because of quickly the team was taken from them, and the success that OKC has enjoyed. But lost in the excitement was the fact that in order for Seattle to gain a team, Sacramento has to [...]

This week, the news that the Kings higher ups were finalizing a team sale and relocation to Seattle broke. Per, Yahoo!’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Maloofs (co owners) were in the process of wrapping up a deal. The Maloofs are finalizing an agreement to sell the Sacramento Kings to the Hansen-Ballmer led Seattle group, sources tell [...]

The Sacramento Kings continue to baffle the masses. As is the case with every season, the Kings entered the 2012-13 crusade hoping for a fresh start. Instead, they’ve picked up right where they’ve continuously been leaving off—losing. Sacramento has become the poster-team for failure. From ongoing bouts with regards to relocation, to poor personnel decisions, [...]

Can the Sacramento Kings do anything right? Apparently not. At the risk of sounding brutal but in the spirit of being honest, the Kings are a horrible basketball team. They’re 8-17 on the season—giving them the second-worst record in the Western Conference—are still trying to figure out the self-destructive enigma that is Demarcus Cousins, have [...]

The Kings are still waiting on DeMarcus Cousins to –as Kobe would put it– put his big boy pants on. The uber-talented power forward has been a near relentless source of stress for Sacramento’s management.

According to our own Allen Moll of THD, the big man was suspended by the league after confronting San Antonio [...]

The Sacramento Kings’ Keith Smart is taking a serious approach to the defensive work of his players. Statistically speaking, the story of the Kings 2011-2012 season was one of two extremes. Putting up 99 points per game, Sacramento was the 6th best offense in the league last year. They also averaged about 95 possessions per 40 minutes [...]

The Sacramento Kings are a mess, they have been for six years. But this season can mark one of change, a shift in fortunes. And such a transformation begins, and ends, with DeMarcus Cousins. You know Cousins, the player who has been kicked out of practices, clashed with coaches and been a volatile presence in [...]

August 24, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors NBA fans in some cities have had to endure either losing their team or the fear of that happening. It seemed like every game that wasn’t a sell out in, say, Sacramento, was a harbinger of a move. Seattle’s story is one that remains with many fans. An [...]

August 24, 2012 – Dan Favale The Sacramento Kings are a mess. No seriously, they are. Sacramento’s infamous owners—the Maloof brothers—have once again dragged what’s left of the organization’s good name through mud, with the latest rumblings as to their potential relocation. The place that’s drawing the most buzz? Virginia Beach. Again I’m serious, or [...]
