[Game] Kings v. Hornets - 2/25/17 - 2:00PT/5:00ET

Not so gentle Ben

 

[k_dubb90]

AT should never handle the rock period. It started their run

 

[Glenn]

Don't look now but in the last few months Ben has become an NBA player.

 

[The_Jamal]

The ever frustrating Ben. Why not use your athleticism to do THAT all the time?

 

[VF21]

Willie blocked that shot so emphatically he hurt himself.

Is that why he's out now? I had to go outside and get firewood. Last I saw he hit his funny bone when he landed. (And why do they call it the funny bone, BTW? It doesn't feel funny when you smack that sucker.)

 

[Tetsujin]

MKG makes Reke's shooting stroke look like Steph Curry's

 

[VF21]

Because for some reason, Ben never was that assertive or confident. That's Joerger's work IMHO.

Pat Ewing in Sacto with Charlotte today as associate head coach, but prospect of him being head coach of Kings was very real last summer.

Awesome stretch for both WCS and Skal. WCS completely shut down the paint on the defensive end, basically forcing solely perimeter shots from the Hornets and Skal basically just hustled his ways to good minutes.

That's asking a lot but I get your point. I personally think the good Ben is increasing his percentage on the floor (whatever that meant )

Yes, no thanks. Having one former NBA great big man as coach was enough to last a lifetime.

 

[Tetsujin]

Reke's our best player again! Is it 2010?

 

[VF21]

I'll be honest. THIS Tyreke Evans is the one I know I lot of you were talking about, but I just never saw. I may have to order more crow.

 

[Kingz19]

Has Jerry dropped a "thank heavens for Tyreke Evans" yet?

 

[VF21]

2010...with new owners, a new arena, and a decent coach? That's interesting.

 

[Tetsujin]

I don't think what Bill Russell did can be considered coaching.

 

[Glenn]

That made me giggle, an unusual phenomena watching a Kings game.

 

[VF21]

No, but the countdown is running. We all know it's just a matter of time.

Oh crap. They just broke Tolliver?

 

[Tetsujin]

And now Tolliver is hurt. It's not a hamstring injury though so Youngman should have him patched up in no time.

 

[glassman]

Tolliver with the worst layup ever off the dribble... hopefully he's ok. Got the foul tho

 

[VF21]

Can I at least post a in regards to some of the calls made and not made on the court?

Boogie's gone now.

This is a no complaining culture!

 

[SLAB]

Yuck. All the joy and excitement of the last game has been replaced with boredom and apathy. This is what I was fearing.

 

[VF21]

I will never understand Grant's need to point out the "they're in a 2 for 1 if they play it right" since it happens every single time a team has possession of the ball at the end of a quarter with a bit more than 24 seconds left on the game clock.

 

[k_dubb90]

Ben has and always will be trash

 

[Kingz19]

They're having a helluva time keeping a man on I guess white lighting on the perimeter

 

[VF21]

I blame your avatar.

 

[The_Jamal]

So yeah, a bit different playing a top-tier defense, but still some really good signs. We're missing a ton of open shots that's really hurt the offense, but the defense for the most part has been decent. Shouts to WCS for sure.

But the misses aren't air balls or off the front of the rim, etc. A majority of them have been shots that should have fallen but just didn't.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Despite lamee shooting and not real enthusiastic rebounding the guys are still in it and showing that trademark Sacramento scrap
