[Game] Toronto @ Kings - 12/5/12

[Gary]

I was checking the box score and I thought Slamson was in the starting lineup. I was very disappointed when I realized it was Salmons.

i very much dislike watching Jimmer try to play Point Guard

I get tired of watching the entire team "try" to play PG.

If you want a summary of the situation between the Maloofs and the NBA, this article does an excellent job.

Mega-Dittos. My fave quote in this incredibly important piece. "If the NBA allows the Kings to be stolen from Sacramento, they’re going to make Sonicsgate look like an NBA Cares spot."

with Smart's rotations i wouldn't be surprised if he tried to sub Slamson in

Interesting comments from Raptor announcers about JJ. Said the management brought him in for a meeting to talk about his future in the NBA. GMs thought he had a future has a defensive stopper, but Johnson felt he had a lot more offensive game to show off and management didn't exactly agree.

Same issue happening here.

He has been penetrating well and making things happen. I wondered how long it would take for your negative comments to start about Jimmer. He would have 3 or 4 assists if layups were not missed.

 

[kingjatt]

no spacing with this lineup what the heck is smart thinking?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Ya Chuck Hayes was totally effective. definitly worth benching Cousins for so long......

well then he ended up on the perfect team "everyone has a green light."

dribbling into a crowd, almost running out of bounds, throwing up sloppy passes, one of which was stolen, the rest were lucky to get to the recipient. wouldnt really call that good playmaking

Of course you wouldn't. You have yet to say ANYTHING good about Jimmer that I can recall. Why start now?

Raps announcers now talking about how Keith Smart needs to settle into a rotation that excludes some players from regular minutes instead of "trying to make everyone happy."

Sad how a play by play announcer from a team a country away knows how to fix our team, yet the guys in the office have no clue.

 

[gunks]

That play was disgusting. I missed Reke.

 

[deekay2o9]

Horrible spacing on the fast break...but a basket nevertheless. It's nice when you play another bad team. lol.

 

[VF21]

OMG! I just saw a play! Getting the ball to the guard to bring up the court, passing to confuse the defense while your cutter gets inside and then dishing into the open guy for the dunk! OMG again!!!!

 

[HereWeBoogie]

cant remember the last time i saw the starting lineup back in the game before halftime like this

 

[flipray]

Love that fastbreak. Great pass from Reke to JT for the dunk.

Matt Devlin is quality. I'd rather we had him than the preening schmoe Napear.

if you actually looked through all my posts you would see me praising JImmers shooting ability and saying that he should be playing OFF the ball. its when hes got the ball dribbling around i have a problem.

not sure if you noticed, but the team wasnt doing so well when he was in the game, the lead has grown since he went back to the bench

 

[gunks]

Lulz, Reke.

 

[rainmaker]

C'mon Reke, bad shot.

 

[PurpleHaze]

Reke with another idiotic fade away - BRICK! Make that airball BRICK!

 

[flipray]

Smh reke

"What was that? Just looked like he said, 'I haven't taken a shot in a while so I'm going to jack something up.' Horrible shot by Tyreke Evans."

 

[HereWeBoogie]

and thats the second time tonight the team has played very good defense for 20 seconds and then John Salmons ****ed it up in the last couple seconds to give up a bucket

 

[flipray]

Besides that airball by Reke, at least Smart put back the starting lineup earlier and look at the results.

 

[flipray]

Great defense to end the half.

Well, he's not wrong.
