[Game] Game 11: Sacramento Kings vs. New Orleans Pelicans. 11/18/14 7 PM PST, 10 PM EST

We're fortunate to be getting them on a tough back to back. This isn't the Pels normal rotation

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Less possessions for NO to score before the starters come back in.

That's what I've been saying since the Mavs game: just hold onto it; stall until Malone can put Gay and Cousins back in.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Thanks bench

 

[kingsboi]

how do you let Gordon just get to the rim with four defenders back? shake my head...

 

[Sac.Kings]

Our bench sucks.

 

[Glenn]

Casspi is a tad selfish. That's odd.

 

[The_Jamal]

Maybe we should try being down by double-digits next game? We obviously won't win when we jump out to a big lead.

 

[hrdboild]

Same problem -- the bench unit can't hold leads because they can't get stops.

 

[chasen4r1]

We give away first quarter leads so consistently I'm now just waiting for it to happen each game. How frustrating.

 

[Spike]

Damn has JT played the entire game so far? Should have pulled him out at the end of the quarter until Davis came back in

#LackOfOptions

 

[Tetsujin]

Nik seems to just have an aura that makes the guy he's defending suddenly play better.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

The Pelicans have forced the Kings into poor defensive matchups just about every possession over the last five or so minutes. They need to clean that up.

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

I can only think back to that SL game where we went up for a soft layup and got SWATTED. He hit the ground hard and had to come out of the game for a bit. He didn't avoid contact at Michigan.

i know. 5.7 fta per game in his sophomore year. he needs to get back to that.

 

[theclash4u5]

Why isn't the starting lineup in?

 

[Spike]

Good TO there.

 

[dude12]

Bench losing the lead again.....happens often

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Nik seems to just have an aura that makes the guy he's defending suddenly play better.

I think that's what happens when an NBA player goes against someone who is a "college kid"

 

[Spike]

Good to see Casspi knows how to attack a zone.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

omg take care of the damn ball

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

McLemore, shoot that ball.

 

[kingsboi]

some of these passes tonight....sheesh

 

[chasen4r1]

Ben is scared to shoot. I don't want him to force it, but come on..

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

cuz still biting at 3pt pump fakes.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

More of that, please; I still don't know why teams act like you have to hit a bunch of threes to beat a zone? It's not even the most effective way to beat a zone.

 

[mac]

Eric Gordon is such a good player

 

[fursty13]

Every winning team needs an Omri Casspi.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Yea Casspi energize us !

 

[dude12]

Casspi plays extremely well with the starting unit when he doesn't have to do so much

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

casspi plays better when he's not the main option on offense.

 

[Spike]

Soo...these announcers... (yes, I know who they are.)
