[Game] Game 51 :( Sacramento Kings vs. Phoenix Suns, 2/8/15 - 6 pst, 9 est

[Tetsujin]

Was going to write something but wound up watching Die Hard instead. It was a much better use of my time.



Go Kings! (Said sarcastically)

 

[Merdiesel]

The fans in attendance better give this team hell tonight. No one gets a pass...

I'd really like to see Rudy's ass benched. What does Corbin have to lose? He's never getting another coaching gig again anyways.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

GO KINGS! (not said sarcastically)

As bad as it is, I still root for the team to win every night. Plus, I am all in for New Orleans, so I am badly in need of Phoenix to lose. Let's go Kings!

 

[pshn80]

Gonna be there tonight. Come on team unknot your shorts and get out there and beat their ***!!!

 

[SLAB]

IT scores 35, Kings down by 30 at some point, lose by 20+.

Go Kings...

I hope the fans that decide to show up raise acceptable levels of Hell.

 

[IfAt1st]

I'd really appreciate it if the media did their f-ing job tonight and asked the obvious questions that need to be addressed.

 

[Bricklayer]

Paper bags please.

Bring spares and pass them out to your whole section.

If you want to spare yourself some pain, forget to cut any eye holes.

 

[Sluggah]

I'll be visiting Sacramento and seeing my first Kings game in years. Was hoping for a resolution to this coaching situation beforehand, but oh well.

Look for me. I'll be the guy a few rows behind the bench weeping uncontrollably the entire game.

 

[kingsboi]

I hope IT destroys us....that said let's lose by 25 at home. I'm fine with that.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Ugh. The Kings lose, and Thomas has a good game? That wouldn't be as bad to me as losing to the gd lakers... but it'd be pretty bad.

I think you may have to be more specific.

There is no way on God's green earth that I am hoping that IT has a monster game. He's a classless POS.

 

[Kingster]

This game should provide just another "teachable moment" for our FO.

According to who?

The PROVEN-classless front office that leaked a bunch of slime about him?

All I know about IT is that he's charismatic, and one of the hardest-working players this organization has seen in a decade. He kills himself on the court night-in, night-out against players who almost every single one of them is a better/stronger athlete than he.

He has made his career on hard work, and dedication.

I will root for a guy like that more than this front-office's proven ineptitude and sliminess, 10 out of 10 times.

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

I am READY for this game.

 

[VF21]

Sessions, Ben, Omri, JT and Cousins to start per several sources on Twitter.

Serious question here. Is your participation in the game thread going to be all about IT? I only ask because if it is, I'll most likely put you ignore until the end of the game - for both our protection.

What's this tweet supposed to mean?

Rudy is out tonight, btw. And yes, I saw him twist his ankle on cousins last night. If Bruski is insinuating he's faking it, he's going too far. I'm mean, clearly rudy isn't all there right now, but faking an injury?

I really shouldn't venture onto Twitter.

Aaron Bruski (@aaronbruski) tweeted at 4:01pm - 8 Feb 15:

I can’t recall which foot had Rudy hobbled last night, but yes, his absence is going to raise eyebrows - deservedly so.

Interesting tweet.. I have no clue, but he played such a poor game last night.

 

[206Fan]

Since Rudy is out, look for opposing teams to quadruple-team Cousins.

 

[Elise10]

Does it really matter that this game thread says 2/9/14...or am I at that point where it really doesn't matter?

 

[Chubbs]

Tonight, it's Boogie vs the world.

Bruski has lost it lately. He's all ticked off because people aren't taking him seriously. And the reason they aren't taking him seriously in all this is that he's been behind the curve for about a week. Even Jason Jones was ahead of him. In the Twitterverse, timing is everything - followed by whether or not your information turns out to have any value. Bruski is trailing the field in both instances.

And yes, Bruski is saying he thinks Rudy is faking and that he's checked out. When confronted about it, with the proof that Rudy did step on DMC's foot at the beginning of the game last night and limped noticeably thereafter, Bruski refuses to answer. Typical...

Isaiah Thomas is starting tonight now? So many incredibly weird coincidental things happen to the Kings on a nightly basis.

 

[kingsboi]

I think Rudy has checked out mentally but I don't see him faking an injury...that being said, he might as well if he is going to continue to look so lifeless out there.

 

[PHXSUNSFAN]

Bledsoe is out today, his wife is giving birth to twin girls.

A familiar face will be the starting PG in Sleep Train Arena today.

Yeah, saw that. Just what we need - more dramatics by the guy who didn't want to play off the bench for us comes back again to strut around and act like he's relevant. I lost any respect I might still have had for him the last time he was here.

tonight, we're got better things to focus on that the Littlest General.

Just let us win please, yall are tanking to protect that pick from the Bulls anyway.

We wouldn't take it personal if you guys rested Cousins tonight either

Cousins works hard, also.
