[Game] Game Thread: Kings vs. Nuggets 1/25

[VF21]

If Garcia is the 'Salmons' of the Kings, then what is Salmons?

The bane of my existence?

 

[rainmaker]

What the F did Petrie think would happen with Salmons and Outlaw on the court?

 

[Kings Faithful]

Look at that big ol' grin on Nene. He isn't even taking us seriously...

 

[spudfan]

Salmons, Jimmer, Thomas and Outlaw on the floor at the same time should never happen.

 

[Glenn]

We simply don't have tall athletic guys.

NO ONE takes the kings seriously... they are a perennial walking mat of the nba

 

[Spike]

TROUT > SALMON.

lol see what i did there?

It's like choosing between two diseases, and unfortunately, choosing "neither" doesn't seem like an option.

 

[Tetsujin]

Thank god!

 

[Arkitect]

Could throw JJ in there for the Kings worst possible lineup.

 

[Nighthawk1]

Is it too early to start a "throw money at Wilson Chandler" ? I would love a SF rotation of CHandler and Greene

...except during the National anthem.

 

[Kings Faithful]

They are double teaming a rookie and yet no body can get open, disgusting.

Maybe see if we could get Kenny Thomas out of retirement. I'm sure Mikki Moore is playing in the D-League somewhere

I actually double checked the box score to see who was in. I thought JJ was in at first!

Good question. The stupidity of what we did over the summer is shoing itself. No doubt (in my mind) that Westphal wanted a bunch of one on one guys as he had no offense to teach. Well, here we are. There is no other explanation for the trade to get Salmons. Or at least an explanation that comes to my mind.

 

[cuad]

Tyreke is really good when he's the last guy to touch the ball on offense.

 

[rainmaker]

He'll be a RFA when he comes back. Den still holds his rights.

 

[Sac.Kings]

I continue to be amazed at how we can get blown out before halftime. Come on guys end the half on a good note please

 

[Spike]

We simply don't have tall athletic guys.

Psst! They're on the bench!

We can go with a lineup of Greene, JT, DMC, Evans & whoever. That may not be as "athletic", but it's certainly beefy enough to bully them around. Especially since they're thin at the guard position right now.

 

[Dime Dropper]

This is getting tiring. I wish John Salmons would be amnistied. Donte isn't the answer, and Garcia is pretty bad, but both are better than Salmons. Seriously, a competent SF would go a long way on this team.

P.S. Glenn, it means a thousand welcomes!

 

[Kings Faithful]

We simply don't have tall athletic guys.

You would expect a team without tall athletic players to at least be good at shooting, right? NOT US!

 

[PurpleHaze]

Why is Galo listed at 6'10" and Donte at 6'11?" It's obvious the 23-year-old star is easily 1" taller than the 23-year-old wantabee star.

 

[Kings Faithful]

Max Contract...

 

[Spike]

Need to close out the half on a positive note somehow.

 

[cuad]

Yes, but I heard that the Nuggets just gave Gallinari a huge extension, so there's no way they'd....

WE MUST GET CHANDLER!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Actually, no. It's not.

 

[Nighthawk1]

I have no issue with that.

 

[VF21]

I believe Mikki is actually on a roster in the NBA. I'd check but I might miss some of the action on the court.

 

[Larry89]

i hate that stupid Tyreke Wrong footed Predictable Spin move that is a travel or charge 40% of the time

We were close and playing well with JT DMC EVANS and Jimmer to start... even with Salmons stinking it up. Westphal is probably the only person who knows why we decided to not play them all together in the second quarter.
