[Game] Clippers @ Kings - 10/28 - 7 p.m. PT/10 p.m. ET
- Thread starter Sac.Kings
- Start date
Yeah, but it has a lot to do with the ability of this team to shoot. Cousins started getting off down low largely because he had shooters stacked around him. With Rondo, Koufos, and Cousins teams are going to consistently play way off of the first two and that means one thing, the third guy will have to bail them out with his shooting. His 3's looked good, but c'mon, I'd say he went borderline superhuman tonight.
Didn't understand the peculiar decision by coach Karl to take Casspi out in the crucial moments, Casspi was great and was one of the players who led the comeback against the Clippers, he had a huge three-pointer and then he also grabbed 9 rebounds in the game and defended really well, maybe he didn't want to make Rondo frustrated or something that in his first game he will not be on the court in the deciding moments so he decided to let him on the court.
But I think it lost us the game, Cousins had a monstrous game scoring-wise but he had too much turnovers and really bad decisions making in the end of this one, the Clippers are more experienced in those situations as a cohesive unit and they were able to pull this off and get the much coveted win.
We need to look forward and be focused on the next game.

We lost the game in the 1st half with our atrocious offense. Missed shots aren't the issue. It was the actual sets we were running and the intent behind them. Can't waste a full 24 mins against the Clips.
As far as the Rondo sub, Karl's gonna have to choose either Rondo or DC down the stretch. Can't play Rondo/DC/Marco and sacrifice the SF. And to keep Rudy out there, you're playing him at the 4. Just too small.
And notice the game changed when Cuz started banging inside. Wasn't always pretty. Made some mistakes but it changed the game. One of our brilliant journalists should ask Karl why he was using Cuz as a SG the first half.
