Kings fans are probably the only group of fans in the NBA that would take DeMarcus Cousins over Anthony Davis at this point. But I don't think we're wrong. :)

We're not. Davis is a better shot block and better jumper but DMC has far more impact on the game. His offensive game is way ahead of Davis', whose offensive numbers are inflated by guard penetration getting him easy buckets.
i was informed today that Davis gets 73% of his made shots assisted, while DMC gets 54%
 
I'd like to applaud them for a win but my goodness Cleveland's shooting was abysmal...they had so many open shots but they just looked disinterested in playing and to me it looks like they tune the coach out...hey kind of like a similar situation here. I guess you take wins anyway you can...one thing I do like is Corbin always having one of Rudy or DeMarcus play with the bench, that's good thinking because we see what happens when they both sit out at the same time.

You're preaching to the converted my friend :) But only Steph Curry and Lebron James got more All Star votes than Anthony Davis this year and Cousins is 24th overall. Smart basketball fans who watch more than ESPN know what Cousins is about but I guarantee you the vast majority of NBA fans will argue well into their 5th beer that Davis could wipe the floor with Cousins cause, you know, Sportscenter.

I'm trying to help you out here. I don't know what other Kings boards you may have posted on, but quoting yourself will get you nothing but ridicule here. "I told you so" is almost as annoying as typing in all caps or using way too many emoticons.

YOU KNOW???????? :eek: :cool: :p :D;) :) :confused: :cool: :p

Bingo. the national media has been beating that drum since the summer started
 
Jerry and Grant touched on this, but I think one thing about Corbin's rotations I like most is how he's resting Cousins earlier and giving the bench guys some time with him on the floor. In fact, I'll be honest. I'm liking the substitutions of Corbin a lot more than before. So props to him for that.
 
MAJOR props to Bobby Jackson for telling like it is. Love his candor. Who else would compare the Cavs situation to the King situation, coachingwise, and say Blatt HAS to be on the hot seat. After all, Bobby said, we fired Malone with DMC out. :p I don't have the exact quote but it was pure Jackson.
 
i can't figure out how to embed the tweet with the video, but @NBATV tweeted a video of the guys discussing Boogie as the best Center in the NBA after the game tonight
 
Kickin' arse 2 of the last 3 games has been kinda fun.

If the new "system" includes 20 assists to 4 TO's each night - call me a supporter. :).
 
Question from post game:

Idiot reporter: How much is you making the All-Star game weighing on you? I mean, is it in the back of your mind?

Cousins: Um, to be totally honest, it is what it is. If I make it, I make it. If I don't, I don't.

Idiot reporter: What would that do...um... would it do anything...?

Cousins: If I made it? (Now looking a bit incredulously at said idiot reporter). Well, it'd boost my ego. (Patented Boogie grin here. Boogie laughs and remainder of media group laughs.

question about stamina...

Idiot reporter (not to be outdone): If you didn't make it, you likely wouldn't take as hard as last year, right?

Cousins: Shrugs, shakes head (and looks as though he'd like to demand to see credentials of idiot reporter). It's out of my hands. All I can do is control what I can control. If I'm not All-Star, I'm not All-Star. (Awkward silence from other media types). Like I say (with self-effacing Boogie grin), it is what it is.

Now that is a grown-up man talking, folks.

I would contend that the Kings have been very predictable, since shortly after DMC first got sick:

They do not beat any team that is not stinking up the court.

If the opposing team makes their open shots, the Kings lose.

Whew!
Gotta Pace myself here.... ;)

Looks like another Kings win when the opposing team is sucking.
Let's not get excited until they beat someone who's actually playing well.
