Game -1: Sacramento Kings vs. Los Angeles Lakers, 10/24/14, 7 PM PST 10 PM EST

[Sluggah]

alright. officially worried. slightly embarrassed.

 

[gunks]

Haha.

Its a good thing Reggie has such a nose for offensive rebounding, because that dude has ZERO touch around the basket for put backs.

 

[macadocious]

We are actually getting good looks, we just aren't making anything.

 

[FaStRmAn]

the Kings look like horse manure. No Defense and no Offense and no heart. Embarrassing and frustrating. Hopefully they play better next game.

 

[Bricklayer]

Ben grabbing his eyes. Must've seen himself playing on the jumbotron.

 

[Henkel]

Our front office didn't address the defense. Instead they sold losing talent as part of some half baked vision.

 

[Bricklayer]

oh wow, I take that back. clash of heads opened up a major bleeder somewhere

 

[jcwkings]

PDA failed in the off season plain and simple. He took our two weakest positions(PF and SG) and did squat with it other than draft another 20 year old kid. Then downgraded one of our 3 strongest positions in the name of "fit". Basically he looked at our strengths and made them weaker and looked at our weaknesses and left them as is(and those were some HUGE weaknesses), unacceptable for a GM to see that a whole year of abysmal play from 2 positions and do nothing to it.

 

[gunks]

Whoa...Wayne got concussed! Look at his face!

 

[Sluggah]

yikes. that's a lot of blood. and Ellington looks like he doesn't know who he is.

We have never had 3 strongest positions, we have only ever had one strongest position every other position was a weakness.

 

[206Fan]

Wow.. I hope they're ok. Ben was bleeding like crazy and Ellington was dazed.

 

[sdballer]

Well, if its any consolation, according to Jordan Crawford we also apparently tried to sign him. So, just be glad we didn't add another defensively challenged gunner.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well on the bright side the Lakers look to start the season a little shy on guards.

The semblance of heart this team had last season left to Phoenix.

Easy...you're doing so well without heading into fanboy territory

 

[Henkel]

The semblance of heart this team had last season left to Phoenix.

Pace yourself.

 

[PurpleHaze]

May as well win the game since it doesn't matter

 

[theclash4u5]

Just start RayMac at SG

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

nik with the softest box out ever.

 

[theclash4u5]

Everyone scared to shoot and Nik throws up a turnover

 

[PurpleHaze]

Lil' Vegas excitement

 

[c-webb1s#1]

That reggie and nik 2 man game is deadly

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That reggie and nik 2 man game is deadly

For differing values of "deadly."

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I hope they don't count on the home run.

Uh no, Cousins obviously is top tier, Gay when combined with Cousins and IT got easier looks and he is a great finisher with his combination of skill and athletic ability. IT you could expect to compete every night against the top PG's. If he was going against Chris Paul he was obviously outmatched, but he stepped up and made Paul work, you have to worry about him, you have to gameplan for him. Collison on the other hand is just solid, he is just there, he is not a bad player, but he isn't really going to make a PG work on the defensive end, he isn't going to stop opposing PG's(no PG can, theres no such thing as a shut down PG).

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Yeargh.

 

[sactownfan]

ok back watching... lol! jeez what a mess

 

[PurpleHaze]

Kings win
