    Thank You Jimmer

    Well everyone, I came to this forum because of Jimmer, so I probably won't be posting much in the future (I didn't post much anyways. Lol). Even though I started watching the Kings because of Jimmer, I found that this team, the fans, the controversial move, ownership change, coaching changes...

    [Game] Kings vs. Warriors - 19 FEB 2014, 22:00 EST/19:00 PST

    Not sure why people didn't notice this, but Jimmer was obvious still under the weather tonight. They showed him a few times on the bench and he was blowing and wiping his nose both both times. When playing, he looked lethargic with no energy. So it didn't surprise me when he didn't play the...

    Jimmer Fredette

    I remember hearing an interview from Jimmer in his rookie year and he mentioned that he struggled his first few years at each level (high school and college) before figuring it out. With that, I fully expected that this year he was going to be much improved, and by next year we will see the...

    Lowry did a slight fallaway shot, so it's pretty much impossible not to have your legs slide out like that. I shoot these type of shots frequently (yep, I degress. :oops:) and that's the natural leg motion when you're leaning back. I vote its a foul on Ben, but I can definitely see a no call on...

    [Game] Kings V. Bulls - 2/3/14 - 7 p.m. PST

    Brick, your reaction certainly made me laugh. I pretty much had the same reaction sitting at home. I'm starting to think that Williams probably has the lowest Bball IQ I've seen in awhile. He makes bad court decisions all the time. How many times does he need to fast break into a 3 on 1 before...

    Ah, don't be so hard on the Hustlin' Husky. His free throw percentage has risen.

    Jimmer's trade value

    I have 3 cats, with all being around 2.5 years old. First time cat owner and I now wonder what took me so long. They are the best. They are definitely spoiled with a water fountain, an auto pet feeder dispenser, a litter robot (greatest pet invention ever!), a few cat scratch loungers, and the...

    [Game] Kings vs Nuggets 1/26/14 11 AM JST/ 6 PM PST/ 9 PM EST

    I received the Nuggets feed last night and I found it pretty funny that after a few times IT brought the ball down court, dribbled around awhile, and then finally took a contested shot and missed, the announcers commented: "Look at that, Isaiah just took the ball 94 feet, and shot, with no other...

    [Game] Kings @ Rockets - 22 JAN 2014, 20:00 EST/17:00 PST

    Did Jerry really say something like that??? So strange. I have NBA package from Dish Network and we have been getting the other team's broadcasting crew this whole road trip, and I have to say it's been a very refreshing road trip. :)

    I just pictured Grant screaming this with excitement. Thanks for the chuckle. :)

    Just a random thought... Many here (including myself) were pretty certain that Jimmer wouldn't be around after this year, and perhaps even gone before the trade deadline. But if somehow Jimmer continues to play and progress like he has, it makes you wonder if the Kings may very well want to...

    [Grades] Grades v. Blazers 1/7/2014

    Yeah, I've been watching a ton of college bball this year, and if the Kings can keep Rudy and then have the ping pong bounce the right way, Joel Embiid is a no brainer for this team. The guy has only played 4 years of organized ball, very athletic, and his idol is Hakeem. He's the perfect...

    and what in the world was Isaiah Thomas doing at 1:15? everyone in the paint was covered yet he was hanging out in there as if he was helping. That's the play that had me yelling at the TV. I kept rewinding as I couldn't believe that IT was complaining to his teammates that no one picked up...

    Jimmer Grades vs. Warriors 11/02/2013 (or Jimmermaniacs unite!)

    I'm as confused as anyone. I keep thinking to myself, is Jimmer really that bad that he can't even steal Thorton's minutes? I don't know what's going on. He totally outplayed MT in the pre-season and MT has continued to play terrible so far this season (except for say 1 game). Listening to the...

    Before Oct 31 deadline/Jimmer news (merged)

    Marc J. Spears ‏@SpearsNBAYahoo 49m "This is a business decision for the King and they are doing what they believe is best for the organization," Jimmer Fredette said. I'm not sure if anyone caught this, but Jimmer said "King" not "Kings". That tells me it was one person that made this...

    Starting SG spot will be Thornton or Jimmer?!?

    Heh, fair enough. Like pre-season, I think we will continue to notice that he has improved, so we will see how it all plays out.

    Starting SG spot will be Thornton or Jimmer?!?

    Would it be a fair statement to say that Jimmer hasn't done anything because he hasn't been given a real opportunity, in a real system and a defined role? Something that Thorton has had in his previous teams. Yes, some of this probably falls on Jimmer for not being aggressive and perhaps...

    Starting SG spot will be Thornton or Jimmer?!?

    I agree Hadlowe, but my feeling is that the Kings would prefer to trade Thorton (if possible), as I don't think he would fully accept coming off the bench like Jimmer would. But comparing salaries and what a contending team would need, Jimmer would be easier to trade - although you would think...

    Starting SG spot will be Thornton or Jimmer?!?

    I will do a wild prediction and say that Thorton starts for a few months (to up his trade value) and then gets traded, which then allows McLemore to start and Jimmer to come off the bench. So Jimmer probably won't play much until then. Or Jimmer gets traded. That could very well happen as...

    Starting SG spot will be Thornton or Jimmer?!?

    I'm seeing this. Thornton is going to start and Mclemore is going to log heavy minutes off the bench until perhaps Xmas. Jimmer is only going to get clean up minutes unless an injury occurs or until a guard gets traded (probably him). Bank on it. I really like Jimmer and I want him to do well...
