Kings owners Joe and Gavin Maloof drove the firing of Rick Adelman and the ill-fated hirings of Eric Mussleman and Reggie Theus. This time, the basketball executives are trying to wrest control back. Multiple sources say the Kings have all but eliminated the possibility of retaining interim coach Kenny Natt and have targeted Eddie Jordan to replace him. ... European coaches – Ettore Messina and David Blatt – also have been mentioned as possibilities, but multiple league sources say the Kings are locked on Jordan. 達叔，這次不會再錯過你了。 "Jason Thompson, Kings: Has averaged 12 points and 8 rebounds in 48 starts (77 games overall so far), showing star quality in a dozen games. A likely breakout candidate next season." - David Thorpe, ESPN.com In the last 10 games, García's scoring average jumped to 18.5 points per game from the 12.8 points per game he is averaging over the entire season. García has been in and out of the starting lineup this season, most recently replacing an injured Kevin Martin at shooting guard. Martin is listed as day-to-day with a sore left ankle. "He's taken it upon himself to be a team leader out there on the floor," Natt said. "He's been a leader all year. He's been the most vocal. Whatever I've asked him to do, whether it's come off the bench or start, 'Cisco has always been accepting of that." "He has a way of getting in a guy's face with a serious look, but not being serious whatsoever," Natt said. "He used to do the same thing when we had Ron (Artest). He and Ron would look like they were going to get in a fight, like they were almost fighting. Then 'Cisco just changes. That's his personality. He knows how to get the best from his teammates." -- --
