Kings Summer League Info/Questions/Discussion (merged)

Garcia looks pretty bad. He's almost looking like he belongs in summer league.

 

[dmj]

who is the shortest guy on the floor right now for our team? i don't think i'm a fan.

Pooh Jeter

 

[Entity]

pooh jeter is the shortest. Hawes finishes with authority every time.

 

[dmj]

I want to see Hawes take more contested shots in the low post. And Garcia needs to pass the ball more.

 

[Henkel]

This game is getting really ugly. The refs need to start letting some of these hand checks go and let these guys play.

 

[BMiller52]

I feel sorry for Jeter, he doesn't really seem to be good at, well... anything.

 

[Entity]

Garcia is looking bad with 16pts 5reb 4ast 2stls and 1blk. WoW i can't wait to see what he puts up in a good game.

 

[BawLa]

This announcer guy keeps saying Poo Jitter.

I wish I was there because I would slap this guy sideways.

 

[Sluggah]

Pooh Jeter

thanks. he's definitely quick. and doing alright i guess.

 

[Bricklayer]

Brick it is just summer league. But in defense of that tired saying you also said the same thing when Kevin Martin was going of last year.

YI just scored first points

Yes, and I also said the same thing when Nikoloz Tskitisvili was the bleeping MVP one year. You just never know. Its an alternative reality. I agree with the poster above who got it right -- you just look for skillsets. You can't get caught up in Pops Mensah Bonsu pouring in points like he's Jordan or you lose all perspective.

Yeah maybe we can play a team that has somebody that can contest them YI will not be in the NBA in 3 years. He is awful

 

[HighFlyingMonkey]

It's bothersome that our guys can't throw in a decent post entry lob pass into Hawes

 

[PurpleHaze]

The announcer is excellent and on top of everything. Pooh Jeter wants his last name pronounced not like Derek Jeter but Jett-ter.

 

[Fear the Putin]

Yi has a pretty quick first step

 

[Jer]

haha wow people condemn players so easily based on one summer league game

I hope nobody in Portland was watching their summer game or they'd think Pritchard drafted the biggest bust in NBA history

 

[Henkel]

I have to agree with you. I hope Shakur starts getting more minutes with Hawes and Williams.

it would be different if he even showed 1 good play. He can't even see the paint much less get to it. and his stroke is to slow to get it off cleanly with hands all in his face.

Well, it's better than condemning them before you've ever seen them play, isn't it?

It's summer league. People are gonna be excited for a couple of reasons:

1. We finally have people who aren't ancient and decrepit in the frontcourt.

2. We're seeing Kings players on the court, even if it isn't Arco.

3. Did I mention it's summer league?

That's why I am getting excited, the guys are doing what they do. Justin is blocking/rebounding/pick and roll and Spencer is pouring it in in every way imaginable.

 

[Jechtsphere]

Cisco knocking them down.

 

[Fear the Putin]

63-41

 

[Entity]

63-41 kings end of 3rd
Yi is like ZhiZhi he will be an outside scorer he has nothing in the post. AS for skillsets YI isn't showing much for real. Justiin is scoring the same was he did last year. quick dishes and dunks. He hasn't posted much and when he does nobody can pass it in to him or Hawes.

 

[HighFlyingMonkey]

Cisco is going Kobe on us

I say again

 

[BawLa]

Cisco knocking them down.

His last two were oh-so-sweet. They would be so ugly if he didn't make 'em.

Only in summer league, against Team China, would Cisco have a chance to look like MJ.

 

[HighFlyingMonkey]

Cisco runs around like a headless chicken sometimes

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

seems like they arent passing to hawes and he has been open, and calling for it for the past few possesions

 

[Fear the Putin]

Justin with the nice block on some Chinese guy

 

[SacTownKid]

Justin just stuffed that poor guy. hehe

 

[Entity]

Yi finally challenged Justin in the paint and Justin put it back on top of his head. Does Yi have a verticle??

 

[Jechtsphere]

haha I know that last one right when he shot it I was sure it wouldn't go in but it did.
