[Game] Denver at Sacramento- (Tyreke and Thornton starting backcourt)

This is what frustrates me. Reke has a transition opportunity and he is a tough guy to stop ona transition drive, but instead of pushing the ball he trots it up and then drives, allowing Chris Anderson to get up off the floor, run back from under the other basket and get back in time to swat his shot.
 
2-17 on 3's
11-20 on FT's

We cant shoot tonight, and when we dont score we dont defend.

I'm surprised Thornton has been so off, he's been our most consistent shooter since getting here. It shows when he isn't shooting well this team clearly struggles to score points, it doesn't help that Cuz is 2-11 or something and Reke isn't doing much himself.
 
I don't think he was playing that poorly. 2-10, but how many times has he been fouled?

Cousins was fine on offense, but in case anyone didn't realise we couldn't defend them at all. And Cousins at this point isn't exactly part of our defensive lineup.

A million billion.

I wonder what his FG% and PPG would be if Refs didnt give him such **** treatment.


He did take some dumb jumpers and had a couple sloppy drives though.
 
Hopefully Birdman isnt hurt too badly.

I like rooting for the Nuggets come playoffs time.
 
A lot of offensive rebounds for Denver tonight. I thought we were supposed to be 2nd in the NBA in rebounding? If you can't shoot consistently, the least thing you can do consistently is rebound the damn ball.
 
Denver would lose with this performance here 8 out of 10 games, but not tonight. They can play for 5 more hours-the Kings can not execute.
 
I think Cousins needed this supports from his team. First Westphal stuck up for him and got a T, then Dalembert did the same. Good team building stiff right there ... We need it.
 
The shots just weren't falling, for anybody. Too many unforced turnovers and WAY too many offensive rebounds for Denver. The FT percentage didn't help either. I did like Dally standing up for Cuz though, that was good team unity right there. Dally is always down it seems.
 
Zebras were bad for both, but you can not point finger on them if the team can score on so many open looks! Just one of those nights!

Or if you shoot 22-34 from the FT line as opposed to opponents shooting 17-22.
 
Pretty bad game. Seemed like we couldnt find any consistency throughout the game, except for that brief push in the early 4th.
