[Game] Kings @ Hornets - 11/23/15 - 4 pm PST, 7 pm EST

[New Era]

Yep, we drafted WCS for defense and then when we need it most he rides the pine

 

[dude12]

George Karl is costing this team wins......his dependency on 3 guard lineups has cost this team wins. Doesn't even put in a defensive lineup at end of regulation.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Well, this is a sad game in so many ways. Sigh... should have been a win, but the Kings always snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. I hope Cousins's injury isn't serious. He has had some rotten luck so far this season.

 

[New Era]

When is the last Hornets turnover?

There is no dependency on a 3 guard lineup, we were winning the game playing a pg a sg and a forward.

 

[Hoovtrain]

1-4 road trip here we come

 

[Sac.Kings]

Karl is definitely a huge concern. I look forward to seeing what the leaks have to say. I can't imagine Divac is going to let this game slide by without some input.

 

[SacKings384]

Terrific shot. I mean I know with a minute left down 4 I'm looking for a Steph Curry style three that we can get at any point in the shot clock.

 

[fansinceday1]

i agree, I don't understand what all the player Hate is about....You never catch me hating on players only because I know that everyone has their good and bad days....

whaaaaaat?
serious?
We're not talking about hating on curry or some other superstar having a crappy game. This morning Deuce and Morgan were just talking about how rudy is not the same player this year. Im not the only one who notices it.

During that 4th quarter hornet run he made some of the most bonehead fouls and turnovers that contributed to the hornets taking this game. Tell me if I'm wrong that he's been doing an awful lot of that this season.

 

[lawlman91]

Lin is having a blast in OT. Who's guarding him even?

 

[SacTownKid]

Can't win playing defense like this. Karl doesn't want to give up offense at any position though. Is there any reason WCS has only played 8 minutes? I turned on the game late, is he hurt?

The sad thing is they aren't scoring either. They've put up 25 points in the 4th and overtime so far. I see no advantage gained running the two PG lineup. They just become incapable of defending pick and roll when they go small there. If you see a PG guarding a C in the post you know you done screwed up. Or you should at least.

 

[Sac.Kings]

But yet here we are with 2 PGs and a SG, and a SF playing PF.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

i want to note that on this day, 11/23/15, i am officially done supporting George Karl.

7 seconds left in a tie game, our team on defense, and he puts a smallball lineup in the game with Rudy Gay at Center. NO. i will not accept that crap. Kosta and Willie needed to be on the floor if Cousins can't play. To have all of them on the bench in that situation is HORRIBLE

 

[funkykingston]

I love what Koufos brings but I do think WCS could've helped when Walker and especially Lin were getting to the basket at will.

Not to mention Collison and Rondo do not play well together. Collison is not a great off the ball player (the type of player that Rondo excels with). Those two should not be seeing significant court time together, but here we are.

What is this "guarding" you speak of?

Yeah...I know...22 point lead when he went to 3 guard lineup...I marked that.

Eh, criticism of a player or coach has now been given a new definition, that being "hating".

I don't agree with the complaints of Rudy FWIW, but it's not hating.

Rudy is not the same as last year except for this game. I am rooting for him to get out of his funk.

 

[lwc]

Big free throws by Kosta

 

[Sac.Kings]

Our superstar had himself a good game, Rondo broke our assists record, Rudy played well, and we still lost. If our top 3 players are playing well, the blame has to be elsewhere.

That would be George Karl.

If you call Collison an SG, and Belinelli an SF, sure.

I'm just saying that there isn't one player on this team that someone hasn't commented on that we need to either get rid or that totally sucks(the exception probably being Rondo)...

Wait, so that's your line? Anybody below the level of an MVP candidate is worthy of scorn and derision if they have a bad game?

 

[Hoovtrain]

I just love this defensive effort . Truly inspiring

Unless you credit the opposition like Walker.

 

[lwc]

Sadly, that was like a good defense by Marco. Lin just had a good shot.

 

[dude12]

Agreed

 

[SacKings384]

No excuse getting torched by Jeremy Lin. Also nice timeout management.

 

[fansinceday1]

Well put. There must be a wonderful sense of superiority for the people who know more than NBA stars and coaches.

So you want this site to be the only site out of any sport, baseball, football, soccer, you name it, where that stuff doesn't happen? Give me a break...........
