[Game] Game 33: Sacramento Kings @ Minnesota Timberwolves - 1/1/15 4:30 pst 7:30 est

[Rockmeister]

Okay, I like this start. Can we just call it a game now and head for the bus?

Uh oh... I hope you just didn't jinx us.

 

[kingsking]

JT is just wow

 

[The_Jamal]

Can't fault the effort of the Kings tonight. This game is watchable...and after the last few, that's saying something.

Absolutely. Guys are out there trying and seemed to understand that the effort in Boston was absolutely inexcusable.

And this game is at close because Wiggins is deciding to have a career game against us. Doing a decent job contesting his shots, he's just hitting.

 

[kingsking]

This will be tied up at half

 

[VF21]

The difference is that Flip gets pissed and his guys fired up. If there is any controversy our way, Corbin claps and smacks someone on the butt

I'm just kinda curious. Do you ever see anything that you don't find negative?

 

[Larry89]

Derrick Williams is an absolute sieve on defense

 

[The_Jamal]

Uhh.. Shove???

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Finally a foul call for Cuz.

 

[Hadlowe]

Dieng can't hang with Cousins, but he is going to be pretty good in a few years.

 

[kingsking]

I do, I guess I have been pretty negative this game and probably over the past few. (really ever since they fired Malone). Point taken!

Excuse me Grant isn't that a case of the pot calling the kettle black!

I cannot stand Grant and Jerry they are so biased it's sickening. The Kings haven't exactly played much better than Minnesota the past few weeks.

 

[206Fan]

I missed the entire 1st half, can anyone tell me who was on Wiggins? Looks like rookies always have big games against us...

...Wolves are 5-25.

 

[BenThePizzaGuy]

Kevin Love is the most overrated player in the league

D Will primarily

Grant is speaking the truth about the TWolves defense. And he's been nothing but brutal in his comments about the Kings defense the past few weeks.

 

[BenThePizzaGuy]

...Wolves are 5-25.

Grant is saying how pathetic the Timberwolves are, the Kings haven't been much better the past few weeks though. Overall, absolutely the Kings have fewer issues

 

[Larry89]

Wolves with 60 points at the half.. my god

Dude, think before you type. Please.

Grant made a comment about the TWolves defense. He didn't say the Kings d was any better. It's not mutually exclusive.

D Will primarily

Wtf, how'd that happen?

Gay and D-Will

Sacramento Kings ‏@SacramentoKings 1m1 minute ago
Halftime: Kings lead T-Wolves, 60-58. Rudy 14pts 3rebs 3asts 3stls, DMC 12pts 4rebs 3asts, D-Will 9pts 2asts, B-Mac 9pts. #SacramentoProud

 

[VF21]

DWill got the start with JT coming off the bench.

 

[Kingster]

Grant's talking up D-Will, who happened to start, and is a chair on defense. It says a lot about priorities when you start D-Will. Defense isn't one of them.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

D Will primarily

Rudy has been there, too. Wiggins has 7 points on Rudy on 3-4 shooting, all contested. Wiggins is just on fire, knocking down contested jumpers and turnarounds like he's on a practice court.

 

[chief bromden]

I should just bet the over in every Kings game from here on out.

 

[VF21]

Rudy has been there, too. Wiggins has 7 points on Rudy on 3-4 shooting, all contested. Wiggins is just on fire, knocking down contested jumpers and turnarounds like he's on a practice court.

You got the Rudy assignment tonight?

Williams was fine on Thaddeus Young, who started for Minny. But he can't guard Wiggins, he doesn't have the quickness to stay in front of him. D-Will starting isn't actually the problem here - it's a lack of a second option to guard Wiggins. Rudy is all we have.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

You got the Rudy assignment tonight?

How can you tell?
