See, hand a poster of that out to fans at the end of the game, then I'll embrace NBA 3.0.

50-32?

MIGHT get you the 8th seed.

Playoff time baby

 

[TheFirstBandwagonKingsFan]

Wasn't able to watch the game but glad we got the W and started off on a good note. Minus the turnovers it sounded like a fun game to watch the energy even showed through the posts. Very excited to see the ethusiasm pick back up amongst the fan base. I for one feel rejuvenated

 

[theclash4u5]

Rudy has played damn near perfect this game

Other than the 1st Q, I'd agree

 

[Capt. Factorial]

50-32?

Except we can only get to 48-34. And yeah, that's maybe not good enough for #8.

 

[fansinceday1]

At this point I don't care about the draft pick. I wanna see a continuation of tonight.
Coach said he wants to finish this season at least establishing our home court advantage. I would say he's well on his way.

Maybe we'll get in on an illness substitution.

How many times did The Nuggets lose at home Karl's final season there? 5, 6 times? Of course, they had acclimation on their side, but methinks GK is going to bring that Arco thunder to Sleep Train.

More cowbell!!

Coach Karl
"........ the bench came in and saved us."

who woulda thought we'd hear something like that this season?!?!?

 

[Tetsujin]

Maybe we'll get in on an illness substitution.

Well, the Suns just blew up their roster and the Pelicans keep getting injured.

The Thunder pretty much flipped the Reggie Jackson house for an entire neighborhood. Not entirely out of the question (5% chance) everyone simply falls apart.

I don't recall seeing demarcus at the high post much tonight. That's a welcome sight. Poor Ty kept him there

In all seriousness, RIP Jae Crowder. He gave his all

 

[9x1x6]

So whats up with Nik not playing? Really wanted the win tonight or something?

I hope Andre isnt played 20+ minutes much any more.

Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine 1m1 minute ago
Steph Curry, Andrew Wiggins, DeMarcus Cousins -- and throw in Andrea Pirlo -- with all kinds of nasty on @SportsCenter

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that George Karl is probably better suited to decide on how many minutes players get than any of us. Tonight, Karl did what needed to be done. He wanted a win, the team and the fans needed a win so he put the veteran point guard he knows and trusts on the court - and it worked.

I hope he plays 25+. He helps put the team in a winning position

True, just a little rough on a back to back.

Andrew ‏@steiny2313 6m6 minutes ago
So Andre Miller did more in one game then Sessions all year! Good job @Pdoro @SacramentoKings @sactownroyalty @SactoKingsFan #

Demarcus looked like Karl Malone tonight

 

[VF21]

True, just a little rough on a back to back.

Again, I think George Karl is in a better position to judge.

I would expect Nik and probably Landry to get more minutes tomorrow night. But these guys are coming off a long break and are riding on adrenaline right now. They'll be fine.

So... the Celtics were smaller and slower than us? Are we sure that we didn't trade them Landry at halftime?

 

[swisshh]

I have always liked Andre and I figured that Kings fans would love him, but it's best that he doesn't play 25 mins every night. I am not sure what his plans are, but 20 mins a night is good for him and his body.

RayMac needs to play solid and hopefully Darren is back soon.

Spell check can be a B.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Spell check can be a B.

Between you and me, I'd rather have the laundry.

 

[jcwkings]

Collison 32 min, Andre 16 min seems ideal to me. + or - (2 min) for either guy depending on matchups, fouls, hot games etc. I think this is a better fit for Andre than Washington. Being familiar with Karl is obviously key but aside from that he doesn't have to do much here. Just set up the offense, get the ball to Cousins/Gay in their spots.

The difference between a crap coach and an amazing coach is the play of role players and solid, non-star types.

Karl is an amazing coach.

We are just scratching the surface here people.

 

[VF21]

One other thing that impressed me? George Karl was not reactive to Brad Steven's coaching. Karl was pro-active, doing what he wanted and forcing the Celtics to try and keep up.
