The Maloofs are idiots.
The guy helped completely turn around their franchise this year.
I had a feeling this was coming though. Throughout the season, and especially during the Spurs-Sac series, I noticed that whenever sideline reporters would ask one of them about Adelman, they'd go into this mode of, "We'll, we're not sure what we're going to do and we need to discuss a variety of issues" etc ... complete bullshit.
There must be something else going here, because Adelman is a damn good coach, imho. And losing to the Spurs in the first round isn't grounds for firing. Hell, on paper, Sactown wasn't even in the playoffs, earlier in the season.
But then again, I thought Bob Hill was a good coach, too, and was shocked when Pop fired him (I never did read or hear the "real" reason why Hill was fired, although I do know a San Antonio Express-News columnist was fired over it), so who knows what the real issue is here.

Rumor has it, Hill was let go b/c Popovich was jealous of his success and so when Robinson went down for the season and the Spurs sucked, he fired Hill and then stepped in once they drafted Duncan. Season prior to Hill being fired he won 60+ games.

Maybe never making it to the NBA Finals in 8 years had something to do with it.
Just a guess.
For what it's worth, I think the Queens made a mistake. But when you're expected to take the franchise to the next level (not this year), and you keep coming up short, eventually someone's gonna have to shoulder the blame.

Where's Sky?
Well, you still got game 6 to look back on. No worries, your team should easily dominate The Lakers during The Kobe Bryant Era, you know since they're going to suck so bad with him.
Like KB doesn' just need an Artest to start tearing this fucker up for real. Props on SAC for making that move this year though. Always been a fan of that fool.

I only say they are pimps because of all the trim those 2 dopes get.
I think the Maloofs as team owners need to stick to running the casino and let Petrie do the operations.
