Cousins watch - only one foul in the quarter, killing the 76ers (he's really just about the only offense the Kings have other than "drive-and-kick"), but the last one down the floor almost EVERY play.

Salmons and Jimmer are really hurting the Kings with both their offense AND defense.
The Kings simply cannot compete in the NBA if they are going to keep playing this bad, regardless of what Tyreke and DMC do.

I really don't want to defend Jimmer and Salmons, but they actually are good three point shooters. They are new to the team. At my most positive homerish way I can be, I will say they come around. :) Bear with me. i don't know what else the Kings should do.

I can't tell if our defense is bad or if Philly's offense is awesome, but man ...lots of wide open looks for them. We still can't defend PnR's.

Both. Philly runs a very structured offense, and usually get the shot they want. We however can do a better job of contesting shots. But......how much is Smart actually coaching defense? Not much judging by the five he had out there at the end of the 1st.

Nice to see Grant doesn't realize how Salmons and Outlaw previously succeeded, and how that wasn't as spot up shooters. It's not just shooting %'s. It's how both were used. Outlaw was slashing off BRoy on Por, and Salmons has always been best off the dribble, not spotting up.

Ridiculous our announcer doesn't know more about the game.

I thought we upgraded our outside shooting. Actually we did but they seem to have forgotten how to shoot AND when they aren't falling, seem clueless. I hope I stepped on someone alse's toes with that comment.
