Offense Needs Work

The Kings had 14 turnovers against the Orlando Magic.  They had 15 on Tuesday against the Miami Heat.  They need to move the ball more and stop turning the ball over at that rate.

Jason Jones wrote a great article in the Sacramento Bee with quotes from Coach Joerger about how the offense is just not where he wants it to be.  Give it a read because it is a fantastic article.

The schedule does not slow down for the Kings.  They are facing a tough back-to-back on Saturday and Sunday followed by a game on Tuesday.  On Tuesday, Darren Collison will return, so hopefully that will help the Kings take better care of the ball and limit the turnovers.

Expect offensive changes to come in the near future because Coach Joerger is not happy with where the team is currently at.
