[Game] Kings v. Wizards - 3/10/17 - 7:30PT/10:30ET

I'm enjoying watching this team more than I thought I would.

Tyreke and Hield have been much better as Kings. I'm not sure if that says more about Joerger's skill or Gentry's ineptitude.

Wow. GO KINGS!

 

[VF21]

I wish they'd blow up that damned prediction machine.

I'll take "Nicknames you'll never see used" for $1000, Alex.

I have always said that one mark of a star or future star is ability to make the game look easy....

When you see Buddy go for 16 quick points and Skal go 3-3 FGs and 3 rebounds you might say....

"Hey that looked pretty easy"

That's a good sign.

By contrast not a lot that Willie and Ben over their brief or not-so-brief tenure seems to come easy.

Thats not the best sign.

I'm not gonna give up on WCS. He's getting more boards... I have, however, given up on Ben.

Why are you calling him Boogie? Did he just get fined 50K for his foul mouth?

 

[EJF]

I didn't think I'd enjoy watching this team when we traded Cousins either. But honestly, I've had a blast watching these guys play.

I am not giving up on Willie either. It's just hard to get excited about him when the good games are so few and far between. By contrast Skal has a streak of like 5 good games in a row!

Sacramento leads Washington 68-56 at half. Buddy Hield leads all scorers with 18. Otto Porter & Bojan Bogdanovic 11 each.

 

[Starting Five]

Kings have to play good "D" in the second half to win..

 

[VF21]

I like Buddy. His hair on the other hand? Looks like a badly manicured Chia Pet.

I agree with you. There is more tempo and sharing-is-caring attitude. Tyreke on the bench makes a difference too. He's not the type of player we need. At same time I have been extremely curious to see what Boogie and Brow can do and it has not been pretty to watch. The constant griping with the refs is NOT normal. Repeat, it is NOT normal!!! It has been refreshing to not have to bear witness to that post-trade despite all these losses.

I completely agree. Like a lot of us, I wanted WCS in the draft, but he's been pretty dissapointing, mostly because of his inconsistent play like you mentioned. Especially on the boards. But, I'll still give him at least another year before I can really sour on the guy.

If the second half is anything like the first then I'd be totally happy with this win. Youngs getting playing time/experience and doing well vs a good playoff bound team. Even pro tankers can't be too upset.

He needs to see Tyreke's barber. He will get that mop top on Buddy's head under control.

 

[Glenn]

Has Galloway ever played? He's making $5 mil and is signed through next year.

I'll add that off the top off my head he makes more than Skal, Malachi, Big Pappa, Buddy, Willie, and Ty.

I feel like now is the time for Willie to shine....in meaningless games and out from under the shadow of Boogie. I don't want to wait another year on Willie. I want to see 14 / 10 games between now and end of season. I think this expectation is fair.

I don't miss Cousins attitude either, but it never bothered me that much. It was annoying but hardly much more to me. But the fact theres many more touches to go around when we have quite a few young talents in refreshing to watch.

 

[Blob]

Buddy's career high is 21 points....one three pointer away from career high! I think he needs to get 30 or more for us to win.

 

[VF21]

"Willie the Thrillie"? - Come on, Jerry.

 

[VF21]

Boy do I hate 3rd quarters...

 

[Starting Five]

Wiz on a run...

 

[SLAB]

Willie's instincts on D aren't as good as i thought they were. A lot of times he just stands there as the driver lays one up right next to him. Jump, man!

 

[Blob]

Wizards don't seem like a 39-24 team...they are just "meh". I would like to have Otto Porter on my team however.

 

[Blob]

Wiz on a run...

Not really. At least not yet.

 

[Larry89]

Been a long time since ive seen us have guards that can score

Willie doesn't have that "I am gonna get mine" aggressiveness. Be the king of the jungle not the mouse of the junk yard!
