End of the Line for Rick Adelman?

The Sacramento Kings won't renew Rick Adelman's contract.

Apparently, after breaking up the Kings' court, if you will, of Chris Webber, Vlade Divac, Peja Stoijakovic and Bobby Jackson, the Kings President of basketball Operations Geoff Petrie and Kings coach Rick Adelman, agreed not to prolong their relationship for the 2006-2007 sason.

Adelman had this coming.

But must the Kings give up on the NBA head coach who won more than 750 games?

This move from the Kings could very well be debatable, as were their moves when they got rid of former Kings' starters except Mike Bibby. (Who also were the replacement for former King, Jason Williams.)

Before he coached, Rick Adelman first played in the NBA for the Portland Trailblazers in 1970. As a player he had an average career.

But he's made a name for himself as a coach.

He became head coach of the Trailblazers in the late 80's. Adelman then took the Trailblazers to the playoffs six seasons in a row. Twice they made it to the NBA finals. After leaving Portland, he coached the Warriors for two losing seasons.

His next stop was in Sacramento where Adelman became the most successful coach in Sacramento Kings history. He won 395 games in eight seasons as the Kings coach.

He guided the Sacramento Kings to the playoffs eight years in a row.
