BMiller52 said:suns, mavs, sonics, kings? Don't even act like you expected the mavs or sonics or suns to beat the spurs in the po's last year. There was a huge difference maker vs seattle and phoenix named TIM DUNCAN. Before webber injury we were going to win a ring for sure, we would've beat dallas and san antonio. And yeah, the suns weren't even expected to make the conference finals at the beginning of last season so don't even act like they were a dissapointment. They were the feel good story that year. I see your point that if you don't play good defense and you just let the other team score than they'll get points and you won't and you'll lose, but even if we get above average defensively and we're a top of the line offensive team then that can get you a ring.
You might be surprised to learn that the Kings have actually had 50 win seasons with both Bibby and Miller as integral parts.Kings241 said:you guys tend to say that Shareef does not play with energy or passion. Well how could he when he tought he was just going to be an 3rd or 4th option with the Kings and that he would finally be on a winning team and lose his reputation as a loser. Well guess what now he is a loser again this time on the Kings team. Why would anyone bring energy or play with passion if the rest of your team,(mostly Bibby,Brad, and then bench) don't play defense and don't give their full effort. Trust me I've seen Shareef give his best effort out there every night and he seems that he wants to play defense and can play defense unlike Brad Miller and Mike Bibby who let defenders put season high numbers on them. Shareef is not the problem with the Kings losing its the rest of the players ( and I will say it again, BIBBY and Brad) who stop us from winning games by lack of defense. Oh yea and you could talk all you want about tonights game or the past 2 games on how the Kings are playing with full effort and winning but its not going to be like that for the whole season.

Then who stopped Duncan and KG during this season. Its not Brad Miller because he was too busy making the Candi man look like Shaq.KingsRNumba1 said:abdur rahim doesn't play defense either

Bricklayer said:Still roughly as overrated as those Peja "stops" were a couple of years back. He stayed in front of them. That's solid. Then they missed. That's not him.
In any case, like Peja, that's not the issue. Defense is a TEAM game. Especially for your big men. I could probably score 20 against us. Just get into the lane and stick my tongue out at the incredible wusses masquerading as Kings big men as I layed it up. Then if I blew the layup, (which I'm prone to do) grab 6 or 7 straught offensive rebounds over those same wusses until Bonzi or some other guard came diving back to rescue our frontline from its interior patheticness.
VF21 said:Oh, good lord. Give it a bleeping rest. The name of the team is NOT the Sacramento Shareef. This team was really pretty darned good before SAR got here. I'd take Bibby and Brad in a HEARTBEAT over SAR. And I think you'd be heartbroken to find a vast majority of Kings fans feel the same way.
Kings241 said:So Shareef was expected to be a shot blocker? Because I still don't see why he would be a dissapointment. Shareef does what he told to do and that is stay in front of the player unlike Bibby and Brad Miller who let the players just fly by easily and score.
Kings241 said:Well I think Bibby and Brad can learn a whole lot more on how to stay in front of a man and at least attempt to play defense. And If you dont know what I mean just read my post above. Defense starts with your PG and Center and those 2 players lack defense BIG time on our team.
Bricklayer said:If Reef is going to be a PF he is expected to shut down the lane and rebound. If he wants to wear a skirt (sorry ladies) then he needs to go back to SF while we find somebody that will.

DirkAB said:Maybe SAR could learn a little something from them about how to move the ball in the offense, instead of over overdribbling with his back to the basket then putting his head down and attempting spin moves into double teams.
Kings241 said:So why is his FG percentage the highest on our team? And Why does his passing numbers look very indentical to Chris Webber's? Please explain this to me because I must be missing out on the info.![]()
VF21 said:Are you related to him or is he paying you for this stuff?

Kings241 said:Well with the money that you pay Shareef and the results you get I dont think you can be upset with his performance. There are far more players on this team that you can get upset with the lack of efffort they play with and the salary that they make.
BMiller52 said:And we still would be better off with webber and we'd still have the same salary. It's THAT simple.
LPKingsFan said:While I agree with a lot of what VF and Brick have been posting, I will say this: tonight we saw the other side of the coin from the Boston and LAC wins--that jump shooting teams lose when they aren't hitting their shots.
We may have done worse because SAR wouldn't have rebounded as much as KT or done the dirty work, but it would have been nice to have someone to go to in the post tonight.
VF21 said:Bibby, Martin, Bonzi, KT and Miller...
I could actually get excited seeing that lineup.

VF21 said:Let's see...last year, without SAR, we were a 50 win team and went to the playoffs. This year, with SAR, we're ... well, look for yourself.

Hmmmm. Yep, you're right. I shouldn't be upset with his performance. I should be absolutely livid.
