Kings Head Coach Michael Malone Talks Cousins, Media Criticism and Summer League

Deuce and Jason Ross Show

Sacramento Kings head coach Michael Malone joins the guys to talk about DeMarcus Cousins joining Team USA training camp, winning the NBA Summer league Championship and hiring Ty Corbin as an assistant coach.

Malone also talked about the 'Kings of Confusion' article by Zach Lowe from Grantland.com:

"…The reality is I'm not really concerned about what the rest of the NBA thinks about the Sacramento Kings. I know firsthand that our ownership group led by Vivek Ranadive, our front office group led by Pete D'Alessandro, and the coaching staff led by myself--we know what we're doing. We communicate, we have a plan. Our plan is not to appease the beat writers in the NBA and make sure they're all happy. It's trying to put a product on the floor that our great fans that can be proud of coming to see every night, and that's all we worry about.

I'm not very concerned about the "Kings of Confusion" or whatever he's trying to put out there because I know how hard all of us are working to turn this around."
