While Theus' chances of winning an NBA title in his first year with the Kings are slim, I absolutely believe he can lead them to a title down the road. The Kings have the best home crowd in the NBA, hands down. They have been a successful franchise with tons of playoff experience in the last ten years. If it had not been for those Lakers teams and the Robert Horry shot the Kings may already have a title or two. The Kings still have a nice core of players with Mike Bibby at point guard, Kevin Martin at shooting guard, Ron Artest, Shareef Abdur-Rahim and Kenny Thomas at forward and Brad Miller at center. If Theus can manage to bring in one more solid playmaker, especially at forward or center since the Western Conference is the land of the big man, the Kings would again be contenders. Theus is a great coach with lots of experience and has a knack for bringing in good talent. Being from New Mexico, I watched what he did with New Mexico State University. He brought them from a laughing stock to the WAC champions and they gave the mighty University of Texas Longhorns and player of the year Kevin Durant quite a scare in the NCAA tournament. If Theus can turn the NMSU Aggies around I completely believe he can turn the Kings into champions!
