Kings Coach Continues to Shake Rotation

Basketball News & NBA Rumors

Keith Smart is prepared to deal with some unhappy Kings.

That’s because after spending most of the season trying to get as many as 11 players decent playing time, Smart plans to start giving some players extended minutes.

“I’m not saying they’re going to be happy – that’s not natural,” Smart said. “But they have to accept the fact that if we can get out of the building with a win based on the guys who played minutes, that’s what we’ve got to be thinking about. The most important thing right now is for us is to keep getting wins.”

“I don’t think it’s a bad thing,” Cousins said. “We would all like everyone to get in and play, but you can’t do that. Some of the best teams in the league don’t have all their players playing. I believe it’s a good thing.”
