Dude keeps his starters on the bench in the entire 2nd half to let Portland come back and win after trailing by 28. I mean if there is not something up with that then I don't know what to think. It's not like Sacramento had to worry about injury, their season is fucking done. Now for the people who say this stuff is not fixed, please explain that. I have heard of some crazy stuff going down but that takes the cake honestly. That is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen.

i don't agree with "fixed matches" in general..  but i had kings +4.5.. and for them to lose by 5 that just screams out fixed to me.. 

it's all a script. kings should've won the game for the sake of going on positive terms for the next season because they have a talented group of players. there should've been no excuse for the comeback. for me to have +4.5 and lose by 5 makes me skeptical about it. i've never experienced any beat like this one. up 28 at one time and just blew it. just unreal. 

Weirdest game I have witnessed in all my years watching NBA, it's as if Kings coach wanted to one up Stotts by messing up his gameplan of trying to lose the game. If you noticed Stotts expression at end of game, he was disgusted and shaking his head..he did not want to face OKC in first round.

he just let young players try to get minutes in meaningless game, do you expect starters to play 35+ mins again in this game? oh god, don' bet. 

p.s. obviously Kings +4.5 was the right choice here, but it happens in basketball.

joerger just got fired!! 

No different that a youth team letting the pip squeeks get a run in a meaningless game. Or a college coach putting in senior bench warmers at the end of a game at the end of a season. Sacramento had a good year. It adds nothing to it leaving in starters to try for this win. It could do damage though, if one of your young stars gets hurt in a meaningless game.
