[Game] Kings v. Clippers - 2/26/16 - 7 PT, 10 ET

Its just one of those things with us: there is no credible alternative. We can ***** about Marco, but in the end until and unless we sign KMart, the "options" such as they are are Ben, who is just being miserable, 6'3" 200min out of the d-league Seth Curry, and James Anderson, in all his glory. Or our favorite Rondo/Collison pairing, which won't even be possible if Rondo doesn't go.
So yeah, you can complain about Marco, but there is no knockout punch argument about who else to play. Just hopes and speculations, which Karl himself may jsut as well have for career-long Marco to show up at some point.

Have they all played poorly? Sure but Marco has played far worse on both ends of the court than Ben and possibly curry. No reason he should be playing more minutes than those guys if we need to win now or them if we have conceded the season and need to win later.
As much as people have despised Ben, Marco has been that with a heaping pile of dog feces

X-Rays were negative on Rajon Rondo's thumb. Team says thumb has bothered him foe 2-3 weeks, but didn't mention pain until after last game.
He is OUT for tonight's game.

You know, I'd forgotten he was even on the team. It is a little odd that he can't crack the rotation at all considering he's a respected veteran and that's usually what George Karl likes. We gave him a player option for next season so it seems Vlade expected him to play more than he has. And it's not like he was awful when he did play either. I'm not sure what the rationale is.
I can only recall one game where he actually saw the floor for more than 1 or 2 minutes of garbage time and I didn't think he looked out of place, so I may have missed something. He's only played 86 minutes all season though so he's hardly had a chance to play his way out of the rotation. Also, that hasn't kept Marco off the floor. I feel like there must be something else. James Anderson has looked like he doesn't belong the last couple of times we put him in a game yet he's played 361 minutes. Curry is a d-league callup and he's played 260 minutes. As far as I know Caron hasn't been injured. Maybe he's just a casualty of George Karl's smallball guard-heavy rotation?
