[Game] Sac @ Por 1/23/12

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

has Reke ever played this badly?

Aside from his shooting percentage (which has been worse), he's not playing that poorly,

 

[kingsboi]

I'm so tired of these blowouts. It's getting hard to watch. I don't recall ever seeing a Kings team that got blown out as regularly as this one does. They get some good wins here and there but when they lose it's almost always by 20+.

Absolutely correct sir. I really don't understand why we can't have any close losses like last season. It just is mind boggling.

Shhhh, you're ruining my Rubio fantasy.

 

[jalfa]

I was just frustrated by all the missed shots at the rim. he'd be one of nine if it weren't for the halfcourt shot.

 

[frownifdown]

On the bright side, unless we go scoreless in the 4th, we'll beat the Magic's final score!

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Shhhh, you're ruining my Rubio fantasy.

Indeed.

 

[TheWileyVet]

Meh, there have been worse seasons. You have to remember that we once had Mikki Moore as our starting PF

I think it has to do with the constant blowouts

 

[annihilator_33]

time to go zone and hold the blazers to 6 points this quarter lol

Salmons and Outlaw have accepted your challenge, sir.

 

[Kings Faithful]

How is that different than having John salmons as our starting sf? This is the worst season so far. Sure we are winning more often but at least in prior years we gave ourselves a chance night, and just couldn't put it away. This year we constantly are out of the game by half time with no chance of coming back. Our shooting is the joke of the NBA.

Exactly what I was thinking but you can never count out the Kings to surprise us

 

[Sac.Kings]

There are just too many players on the team right now that are too selfish. Why is it so hard to play smart basketball? Cousins has 15 points and 12 boards and no King is even LOOKING at him. How many times can you get blown out before your pride takes a hit? If you're gonna lose, do it like a team. Blazers announces are terrible, but all the things they pointed out are true. Last in assists, last in defense, most points in the paint against. Stop this selfishness. I wish we as a forum could confront the team. I would call every single player out. This is pathetic.

 

[Aenadin]

at this point i wouldnt mind seeing the rookies get some burn time....

 

[Tetsujin]

What the....

 

[cuad]

I didn't know Garcia could get by people, but he's been doing it this season...

 

[Larry89]

false hope

 

[jalfa]

false hope

explain that second word, what does it mean?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I actually think there's a difference between "selfish" and "unable to play team basketball, especially with hardly a shred of an offense system in place". Adequate coaching (or adequate time with adequate coaching, we can hope) should be able to fix this.

 

[swisshh]

This is the second game in a row where Reke has been ineffective. It's just the same forced drive over and over. Also, he doesn't finish well or draw contact. It feels like he's avoiding the contact since he got injured. He's not the same player if he doesn't try to draw fouls. These layups should be drunks for a guy his size.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

It's the orange thing you're supposed to put the basketball through.

 

[Tetsujin]

That was the most pass-looking shot in the history of shots

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

How is that different than having John salmons as our starting sf?

In the first place, at least Salmons doesn't holler "AAAAAND OOOOOONE!" after every shot. And, in the second place, starting Salmons is still better than starting Salmons and Moore, which we did.

Trade him for a second round pick.

plus Salmons doesn't look like an anorexic Predator.

 

[cuad]

I can't take this anymore. Good night.

 

[kingsboi]

So what I'm trying to comprehend in my mind right now is why do none of the guards like to use our bigs to pick their guys off?

 

[Larry89]

Luke Ridnour

Mike Conley

Jamal Crawford

 

[swisshh]

Trade him for a second round pick.

Like Chandler Parsons? I don't know if Reke's value is that high.

 

[slugking50]

Garthreeya's heating up.

 

[Tetsujin]

I was thinking more QUincy Douby but he was a 1st round pick. Undoubtedly Reke is the biggest bust ever to be drafted in any draft in any sport ever.
