[Game] Game 5: Sacramento Kings vs. Denver Nuggets, 11/05/14 7 PM PST, 10 PM EST

Aside from the Rudy Gay explosion, we haven't really seen the offense clicking yet this year until now. It's so refreshing to see the defensive intensity is there right from the jump, and when we string a few shots together in a row and keep up the defensive intensity we showed in the last three games? Wow. This is getting out of hand real quick. Ben has woken up for sure, but every body we've thrown out there is clicking on all cylinders. These guys really believe in what they're doing and it shows!

Solid quarter for Ben all-around. Really solid defense. I want to see Nik get it going.

 

[The Hammer]

shots are falling and defense is being played...is this real life?

Is this just fantasy...

 

[funkykingston]

What is Tyrone Corbin's role again? Assistant Coach? Offensive coordinator?

I'm not sure but based on how our summer league team improved when he took over I'd say he's been a fantastic addition to the staff.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Cousins with almost as many points as the entire Nuggets team

I'm perfectly okay with letting DMC/Rudy iso to start a game, get the opponent in foul trouble, and ease things up for everyone else.

Actually, we should be doing this from time to time. This DMC/Gay iso plays is one of our strength. We can actually say this is one of the most potent weapon. We should use it, but with caution and not to over-do it though.

 

[Hadlowe]

Running a little behind on league pass. That opening 6 minutes is good stuff.

 

[hrdboild]

That was an incredible finish from DeMarcus! If he can do that consistently, he's legit unstoppable in the post.

So at what point do some of you feel obligated to admit that Pete D'Alessandro might not be the fool some of you claimed he was? Hrm?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Let's not leave 3pt shooters open guys

Normally I'd say at least more than 5 games into the season but they are planning great basketball.

It's iso, but they're getting the ball in spots where they are virtually unstoppable.

It's true. This change didn't happen overnight. Credit where credit is due, he's put together an actual team here. And a darn good one I think.

 

[funkykingston]

Cousins is beasting. And beasting at at ridiculously efficient rate too.

 

[lawlman91]

TRAGIC BRONSON

 

[Monster]

Blame it on the Boogie!

 

[fursty13]

THIS IS SO FUN

 

[VF21]

Holy freaking crap.

 

[hrdboild]

Prince Casspi just rode his golden unicorn straight to the hoop!

The "Collison effect".

It is also actually contagious.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

STANDING O!

 

[dude12]

Wow....talk about hitting on all-cylinders!

 

[HereWeBoogie]

What. The. ****

 

[annihilator_33]

This.......is......amazing

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

mike malone's in shock. LOL

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Casspi has that lil flip touch shot. Quick release with touch

 

[funkykingston]

40 points and only one turnover in the first quarter - ridiculousness.

 

[Chicken Chaser]

Malone has a look of disbelief at the product on the floor. And it's not the same look as last year.

Also, PDA sighting repping no-shave-November.

 

[Tetsujin]

OH. MY. GOD.

 

[Monster]

.....

Amazing.

You trying to entice an argument in the game thread?

 

[206Fan]

I have a question.. why is Evans getting FT shots?

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Omri Casspi was a huge, huge signing.
