Jazz @ Kings Game Thread - 4/6/07

[piksi]

portland won... seattles winning the hawks won... the twolves won too... i wouldnt mind a woss tonight the kids play tonight deserves it...

A lin puts us in the 7 spot. There is no need for a terrible woss tonight

 

[fnordius]

nooooo!! justin has been taken out! i jinxed his double double

Look at the bright side, moments later Utah regained the lead.

 

[16to93]

Wow, Williams is just such a breath of fresh air looking at the box score tonight! I love this kid. Can someone who can actually watch the game please tell me how he is scoring on offense: Is it actually getting the ball in the post and making a couple of moves or just getting offensive rebounds/put backs. I assume it's the latter.

 

[fnordius]

the latter. Mostly putbacks. Doing a great job of being active around the basket.

 

[fnordius]

With Justin out, Utah's bigs are pwning us again. Yay!

yes, mostly the latter. was set up by price once. couple of put back type stuff. and then...hmm. don't remember exactly.

 

[SacTownKid]

He is pretty good at finishing at the rim within a pick and roll set however.

 

[16to93]

he has no moves yet

Lol, ya thats what I thought.

I like how you said "yet" though!

 

[gunks]

Hey...Nothin wrong with a Kings bigman grabbing offensive boards and throwing them down for dunks and putbacks!

Havent seen much of that since pre-injury C-Webb!

 

[diggining]

Bibby: 0-3, 1 pt, 1 ast , 0 stls
Price: 5-9, 13 pts, 3 ast, 2 stls

Miller: 1-3, 2 pts, 2 rbs, 0 blks
Williams: 5-6, 10 pts, 8 rbs, 3 blks

Who thought this would ever happen at the beginning of the season?

 

[Sluggah]

winning this game is unacceptable.

 

[gunks]

Bibby: 0-3, 1 pt, 1 ast , 0 stls
Price: 5-9, 13 pts, 3 ast, 2 stls

Miller: 1-3, 2 pts, 2 rbs, 0 blks
Williams: 5-6, 10 pts, 8 rbs, 3 blks

Who thought this would ever happen at the beginning of the season?

Not so much the Price outplaying Bibby....But I knew that as soon as he got minutes Justin would have no trouble at all outplaying Miller.

 

[diggining]

I'm actually going to be at this game. I sure hope to see a lot of Price, Williams and the rest of the kids.

 

[Larry89]

NOoooooooooooooooooo

 

[Big Cuz 15]

wth r the kings doing with the lead??

 

[piksi]

we have got to be the dumbest franchise in the history of Western civilization

 

[diggining]

Fair enough. Bet you didn't expect this to happen though after the Kings waived Justin.

 

[gunks]

Hah....I knew this would happen.

Play the youth get the win.

If we want to lose we need to get Bibs and Miller on the floor.

 

[Sluggah]

oh bittersweet irony. i beg for playing the youth more. then they have the audacity to go out and win.

 

[piksi]

this is just plain stupid.

We can't do anything right these days.

We deserve to be like this for the next 10 years.

Stupid

 

[kingsfan52miller]

WOW!! that was the most fun i have had watching a game in a looooong time!! maybe should have used our bench a bit more this season

 

[diggining]

Kings Bench: 60 points
Jazz Starters: 62 points

Kings Starters: 43 points

Wonder how Jazz fans feel about losing this one?

 

[gunks]

we might go on a draft day dashing 2 game win streak too....Houstin is next and they dont have their two best players....Its gonna take 30 minutes+ from Miller and Bibby to lose that one.

 

[Bricklayer]

we have got to be the dumbest franchise in the history of Western civilization

Right up there.

We have put together an absolutely amazing no hope season. Now wins, no playoffs, no trades, no free agent money, and of course now scuttling the draft pick as well.

Oh, and we just got done dropping some huge chunk of the season ticket holder base.

I mean, this ain't easy to do.

 

[mazzystar]

Well then, that was interesting. On one hand, it was nice to finally see them playing well, on the other, that was a tough tough woss with the other competition winning.

They are proabbly more concerened about losing Williams and Kirilenko. We're just a speed bump. Those guys are their playoff hopes.

duh duh duh duhhhhhhhh...

FIRE MUSS RIGHT AFTER THE LAST GAME OF THE SEASON. he's really *'d up this season for me. I assumed he would play some of the kids EARLIER in the season. the guy can't do **** right.
