Woo! It's officially "Mateen time!" I'll do my best, like his 4/17/02 game where he lit up the Lakers for a season high 13 pts on 6/13 shooting. After this, I'll quietly go back to waving my towel.
Back to the game vs. the Raptors. I have been nonplussed by the Kings' guard play - The Raptors were driving and running with reckless abandon, although DeRozan matching up against anyone we put out to guard seemed pretty much a mismatch. Where did they get these guys, and how did Petrie not think about picking up Jeremy Lin?
My WTD (D instead of F because it's a family site) moment of the game:
Cousins going from DMC to DMZ.
(Look it up, people. I'm droppin' some knowledge on ya.)
Who fouls out of a summer league game? Although, he may officially have the only recorded triple-double in SL history with 16 pts, 12 rebounds, and 10 fouls.
================================================== ===
On to the Baby Bulls:
No one of note is on their Summer League team. Seriously. Taj Gibson isn't playing, Joe Alexander is on the roster and leading the team in DNPs.
John Lucas v3.0 has done most of the scoring over the past two games (15 and 25 pts, respectively). Given our guard play, he'll probably get 20 (subtracting 6 after three blocked shots from Whiteside.)
I guess James Johnson is OK, but he's busy starring in:
Breakin' 3: We Need A New Arena
================================================== ====
Here's what I'll be looking for in Game 5:
(Kudos if you can figure this one out - that means your at least as old as I am.)
Go Kings!

Here's what I'll be looking for in Game 5:
- DMC taking it to the hole!
- Our guards doing something of note.
- Casspi pulling his head out of his asspi and playing some team ball. You've gotta move the ball if you want to score. Take your shots within the flow of the game. The points will come.
- Donte connecting on more of his shots. C'mon, man.
- And finally:
