Multiple news outlets are reporting the Sacramento Kings have signed interim head coach Tyrone Corbin through the end of the 2014-15 season.

The signing of Corbin should bring some much needed stability to a franchise that has been spiraling out of control since the firing of Michael Malone on December 15th.

The Kings dismissed Malone over style of play. The management would like the team to play an offense similar to the one used by the San Antonio Spurs. As the Kings have stepped up the tempo, their defense has become almost non-existent.

The players now know that Corbin will be in charge for the rest of the season. This should help the team focus on what Corbin is trying to teach them to execute in games.

It is also a chance for Corbin to audition his skills in order to be considered for the head coaching job on a permanent basis. Corbin has experience as a head coach with the Utah Jazz.

The signing also allows the Kings to take their time in deciding who should coach the team long term. The decision on who should be the coach as the team moves to the new arena is an important one for the Kings management.

For now, Tyrone Corbin is the man who will patrol the sidelines and call the shots for Kings as they try to salvage their season.
