[Game] Game thread: Kings@Jazz, 1/28

on a side note.... Jimmer really has been looking better... running the offense tho him will never work... he's a SG

There was a play where I believe we double screened to get him open in the corner, but the screens weren't set well so the defense was able to close quickly. If we're going to use Jimmer at the 2 we need to get better at running such plays, because Jimmer will be undersized at the 2. Coach should watch how Boston used to get Ray Allen WIDE open.
 
For those not getting the Sactofeed, Grant just announced that Jason has a "mild ankle sprain" and is expected to play the second half. Whew.
 
it feels a bit like the Kenny Thomas disaster, where the coaches just kept playing him and playing him, even though he quite clearly was not interested in basketball anymore, only worse! that loose ball, where he got stripped by Miles was just so...you can't even call it half hearted. right now, he screws up on offense every chance he gets and then gets lit up on defense. when Harpring was wondering why Gordon Hayward couldn't play this way every game, the answer was pretty goddamn clear to me.
 
Orrrr we may have given up on him too early. He's only 23 this year. Kevin McHale was 23 years old his rookie season.

or he's still soft and McHale was a beast... McHale was a balanced guy... Hawes still camps outside jacking 3's like Okur with no post game

Boston's stratey for getting Allen open now is pretty much having Rondo and Pierce run straight into the other team's defense and tossing the ball out to him. We can do that to.
 
Reke is on pace right now for 32pts 8rebs and 12 ast. And we are losing.

Between Salmons, the bench, and the coach who won't play Donte no matter hos stinky the dead and rotting fish gets..we're just shooting ourselves in the foot.

It's Reke's fault we're losing though. Never forget that
 
seriously.... this is common place in the NBA for those like rainmaker that don't follow... contract years are so flawed... especially if it was a huge jump in production and conditioning

You really aren't too bright, are you? Does the whole being 22 years old and still having years to improve completely fly over your head? Did his new coach who's worked hard developing him and the impact that had also fly over your head?

Haha the Utah announcers earlier said (after Cousins shot a 3) something along the lines of you can't win if you have your 5 shooting 3 pointers. Then there was an awkward pause and I was thinking err ... Mehmet Okur? Then they quickly added "if he's not a 3 point shooter"

Could we please keep it civil? Pretty please?

Well it is my honest opinion that we should follow the ways of a championship Boston team, as opposed to the one this year
 
According to Grant, Smart just gave Thompson hell. "Get in there and dunk the freaking ball!"

Heheheheh.

I like it.
 
OMG. Salmons finally hits the freaking mark, gets the bucket and complains all the way back down the court that he was hit and should have had an "and 1"... Good grief, Salmons. Fish or cut bait, dude.
 
Alright everyone, he's calling it, as of 1/28 Hassan Whiteside's NBA chances have been shattered forever

this franchise and front office is killing his career... unless we overhaul the front offices starting with the owners? even... then it will be officially shattered
 
so Salmons hits two shots and all of a sudden Tyreke and Jimmer feel the need to play hero ball? coincidence?

Hey, stf? In case you hadn't noticed, there's a game on. Couldn't you save the player doom and gloom nay-saying for afterwards? I mean, seriously. Don't you ever get tired of being Debbie Downer?
