The winningest coach in Kings history is also the father of Nuggets head coach David Adelman

[Sacramento Kings @SacramentoKings]

The Sacramento Kings organization is deeply saddened by the passing of Rick Adelman, a beloved coach whose leadership, character, and vision helped define an era of Kings basketball that inspired our city and captivated fans around the world.   

During his eight seasons in Sacramento, he led the team to unprecedented success and helped create some of the most memorable moments in franchise history. For an entire generation of Kings fans, Coach Adelman represented the very best of Sacramento basketball, and he will be remembered for the way he inspired those around him – with humility, integrity, kindness, and an unwavering belief in the power of teamwork. His leadership helped establish a culture that continues to resonate throughout our organization today.  

Our thoughts are with Mary Kay, his family, friends, former players, and all who loved him.

The Nuggets scored 39 points in the first quarter of Game 2 on Monday. They have exactly that man through the first half of Game 3 tonight. They're down by 22 at the break.

[Chris Tavarez @ChrisTavarez]

Denver has three guys on the court in Zeke Nnaji, Julian Strawther and Spencer Jones with less than a combined 20 minutes of play in the first two games. And Jones played every one of those combined seconds.

[Chris Tavarez @ChrisTavarez]

The Nuggets with a disastrous first quarter here in Game 3. They're down 25-11. David Adelman was emphasizing rebounds, and they're losing the boards 19-13. Denver shooting just 14 percent from the field.
