Blazers @ Kings game Thread

so if peja was injured and he wasn't playing we would be down by 20???

pretty much

 

[BMiller52]

Or maybe they will let his model wife into the locker room at the half to do it instead

Wow... I didn't realize how that sounded . I meant maybe the trainer can fix it or something

 

[KP]

Let me just say - this is the coach's fault, in my opinion.

He did his wholesale lineup change on his stupid schedule thing again - rather than slowly bringing his starters out and in. Also, when the second unit started struggling was the time to start bringing guys back.

Instead, RA waits until the 6minute mark and brings back 3 starters.

That's just bad.

Plus he ruins everything positive that happened in the beginning. Peja getting his shot back and getting back in rythm. The team moving the ball well again.

BAH!

LMAO, yeah the guy just went from 6 years of .650 ball to a .380 ball coach overnight. It couldn't possibly have anything to do with the personel... Rick has obviously forgotten how to coach, luckily you're ready to step in right?

Yeah, I'd say so.

Peja played pretty dang well ... and it was refreshing to see.

 

[kennadog]

Wow, this is just plain disastrous.

Well, he clearly doesn't know how to coach this team IMO.

Well they don't call him playmaker for nothing

There are certain laws in basketball - and one of them is DON'T MAKE WHOLESALE SUBSTITUTIONS.

Also, what I said doesn't translate into yearlong or career records - I'm not quite sure why you decided to make that leap. I said the momentum swing had to do with a coaching mistake.

It's not about forgetting how to coach - I think it's not caring anymore.

Of course - now that I think about it - it could be the personel ... considering I have no idea what a personel is. It just might be it!

This team is awful... I've been trying to tell you that for months now... I'm amazed how people can't see how badly this team is put together. IMO it's been pretty obvious for awhile. Hopefully Someone can step up in the 2nd half... and we can eek one out at home... after a few days rest... against the worst team in the western conference. That's where we are at STK.

 

[VF21]

As hard as it is to read, a lot of these comments - while pretty harsh - are valid IMHO. The KINGS have made some horrible mistakes, Adelman made some very questionable substitutions IMHO, and - in general - the Kings went from having a game in control to trailing by 10.

Let's just be civil in our discussions about this, okay?

 

[vj9999]

Nice start!!

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

oh wow World, look out! we're on a 6-0 run against the leagues worst team.*L* Grant is starting to annoy me, for the first time in a while

 

[piksi]

just a minute of good effort is all Kings need

 

[LMM]

way to start the 3rd!

keep it up guys!

please..

 

[piksi]

That's where we are at STK.

And I thought we were contenders

 

[piksi]

Miller needs to dunk that ball

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

anything we do against Portland should be taken with a grain of salt...knowing how good/bad they are.

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

damn, steve blake from downtown

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

This is good...Reef with a facial blow

 

[piksi]

Pedja almost killed someone in the stands with that airball

 

[DaMan]

we need to stop setting for jumpers

 

[Kings241]

LOL did anyone else hear Shareef swear near the camera???

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

we need to stop setting for jumpers

thats alot to ask for with this team

 

[KP]

Reef is pissed, let's see how he responds.

 

[DaMan]

please drive or pass down low please just stop taking so many jumpers

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

Reef is pissed, let's see how he responds.

probably the same way he responds all the time, consistant 16 and 10.

 

[Kings241]

please drive or pass down low please just stop taking jumpers

maybe their defense wont let us

 

[DaKings]

Pedja almost killed someone in the stands with that airball

OOOOOOOhhhhhhhhh Yeah. I tried to pretend he was saying something else...didn't work.

 

[VF21]

I have a request. Please remember, through all of this, that this is OUR team. Thank you.
