[Game] Kings @ Trailblazers - 12/28/16 - 7PT/10ET

[kingsboi]

Sigh of relief with news of Gay being out. Had he been able to play in this one, I would of had to chalk this up as a potential loss. Not that it couldn't be anyway, however...I enjoy watching ball movement and defense more.

 

[TaxMan]

Cousins can get pissed all he wants...but if he doesn't use that anger towards his opponent in a positive manner than I can see more teams applying those tactics to take him out of the game either via jump shooting, technical fouls or personal fouls.

Yes, I understand that dynamic. My only point was the tactic clearly did not work last game. Unless 55 points is the downside you get when cuz let's his emotions get the best of him.

Kings- 115
Blazers- 108

Hi @Chupacabra!
Can't predict in here! Only in HERE (click this link)
The guys voted not to accept predictions that were made
anywhere else, except for the prediction thread (under Fantasy & Games...).

It's meant so that we all see each other's predictions
and none of them gets lost or misplaced.

 

[Larry89]

Blazers without Lillard? This game is going to be very ugly for them

 

[SLAB]

When's the last time the Kings had a game that legitimately meant this much? This feels huge!

It has to be years?

 

[Glenn]

I am tense and that is not normal for me. I may not hang around here as I mi

I am getting very tense. We can survive without winning this but I can't stay that rational.

Word. A loss here and I'm right back on the "We suck 4ever" bandwagon.

 

[The Hammer]

They're out Lillard. We're out Gay.

BBall gods are smiling on us.

I expect a fantastically entertaining game.

 

[VF21]

So the philosophy tonight to try and beat Boogie is flop like a dead fish?

 

[SLAB]

McBen has just totally and completely forgotten how to dribble. Yeeeeesh.

 

[dude12]

DC with an aggressive move...bueno

 

[The Hammer]

My god the Gay effect is so obvious.

 

[sactownfan]

Gawd I hate Daves starting line up...

If we could exploit Koufos being guarded by a SF it would be great but we won't. It's such a dumb line up.

Just clogging the paint

 

[Larry89]

Im munching on a huge box of harry and david malt balls i got for xmas while watching this game, how can this get any better

 

[dude12]

Bens dribbling though....

 

[dude12]

I love Joerger's lineups

 

[Larry89]

Ben looked good earlier this year and now.....

 

[sactownfan]

This team needs Temple starting or a REAL SG

End of story...

Running Ben out just to start and that's it is pointless ... he's a total zero

At least Koufos tries. Ben McLemore being out there is a big waste of space. I'm ready to plant his posterior so far down the bench they'll need carrier pigeons to communicate with him.

 

[dude12]

How the hell doesn't one pick up Aminu? Cheap foul on Cuz...not what they need

 

[SLAB]

Ben looked good earlier this year and now.....

The curse of starting. It's like a sword over his head; and it drops every single time there are any expectations on him.

 

[sactownfan]

Great job Koufos getting cousins his first foul or should I say thanks Dave for having Koufos guarding a SF

 

[Larry89]

more pt for Lawson and Tolliver and Temple pls

 

[SLAB]

DC is so lousy...

Should you say it? Why? We all know the refrain by now.

Totally agree... but Koufos vs this POR unit is a mess... why not just bring him in for cousins... when one of our 2 bigs ends up having to be on a SF we get owned...

 

[Larry89]

DC is like a 6'0 shooting guard trying to play PG

 

[Kingsfan23]

Not watching but is Collison continuing his nonsense?

 

[SLAB]

There's three guys on the court that have no business being out there right now.

 

[Larry89]

Matt Barnes has also regressed immensely as the season has went on
