The Sacramento Kings' owners have recently considered hiring a replacement for longtime personnel boss Geoff Petrie.

Jan 30, 2012 - The Maloofs, who own theSacramento Kings, have recently considered relieving longtime president of basketball operations Geoff Petrie of his position, multiple sources have told Sactown Royalty and SBNation.com. No move to replace Petrie, who has been the team's only personnel boss for the entirety of the Maloofs' ownership of the Kings, is imminent, but the family has, according to sources, reached out to a management agent within the past two weeks with eyes on lining up a successor.

The Maloofs' own future with the club and the city remain in doubt. The family was prepared to file for relocation last spring before NBA commissioner David Stern pushed for one more year for Sacramento to put together an arena funding plan. The Maloofs eventually declined to file for relocation to Anaheim after two extensions of the league's deadline. If Sacramento does not produce a funding plan by March 1, the Kings are expected to move to Anaheim for the 2012-13 season.

The Kings' front office include Petrie's son Mike, his longtime deputy Wayne Cooper and former NBA All-Star Shareef Abdur-Rahim. There was once an outsider in the front office -- former player agent Jason Levien -- but he split with the Kings in 2010 due to reported conflicts with Petrie. He is now involved in the Philadelphia 76ers' ownership group.

Pointless move if you ask me. I'd much rather have a new owner.

Too bad we can't fire the owners

But yes a new owner that wants the team in Sacramento would be amazing.

 

[mister916]

As expected. Joe Maloof denies claims of GP's job being on the line.

Game Time! One team will get that 7th win tonight.

Maloofs are liars!!!

 

[mister916]

Black uniform/shoes + White socks 

 

[mister916]

DeMarcus with Dream-esque shake.

 

[mister916]

That was horrendous.

 

[mister916]

3rd quarter is usually where the Kings start to fall behind. Let's see what happens.

 

[mister916]

Is that a captain's patch on Chuck's jersey?

Edit: yes it is

 

[mister916]

TO's are killing us

 

[mister916]

Donte 

 

[mister916]

What's the excuse for not guarding Rush? He's basically scoring all of the points. Shouldn't you cover him?

 

[tyrekeevans]

 

[tyrekeevans]

really bad defense. man this team is hard to watch

 

[tyrekeevans]

can IT22 please get more minutes hahah

 

[mister916]

Killing way too much clock on out part. These last second heaves are appalling.

 

[tyrekeevans]

reke pass that!

 

[mister916]

When the hell is Thornton coming back?

 

[andrew630]

game

 

[mister916]

5 game losing streak. Jesus, this team needs tons of work.

 

[tyrekeevans]

with thornton gone, why doesnt IT start? he seems to get the majority of the minutes anyways

 

[mister916]

Tyreke would handle the ball the majority of the time.

And I think Keith likes to play him off the bench because of his energy.
