At least Spenc and Noc will start...

 

[kupman]

This has been and continues to be my biggest concern with Kmart (more than his defense). He misses alot of games with injuries. It stands to reason with the way he plays - always flying around and landing on the ground (feet not hitting first).

I still love him - I am just saying.

evans at the 2 i want to see that

I'm not sure about Noc starting. But anyhow, I hope it all goes well.

 

[Rug King]

So what's wrong with starting Evans AND Beno?

 

[Jerryaki]

^ it would satisfy both ariesmars and the dude who is kingsgurl881, i.e. hell would have frozen over and the world will implode.

so coach, for the sake of this board, please don't do it.

 

[rainmaker]

Kevin better play. Its his off hand, and nothings broken, so play through it.

I hope westphal starts beno and Evans if Martin doesn't play. Tyreke will score 30 points and we will have a pg on the floor at all times. Hopefully Sergio will get some minutes.

If Evans plays tonight does that mean he wasn't hurt last game and was just having a bad game?

Lol!!!

That makes no sense. If he was hampered a bit on Monday from twisting it on Saturday, why would you expect him to be OUT two days later?

No, it means he's still playing hurt. After seeing that sprain,I doubt he's 100% for two to four weeks.

There's already been one thread closed because of this "calling out" nonsense. Knock it off.

 

[OptimusRhyme]

yah if kevin dosent play i`ll be extremely upset. I remember iverson used to play on a broken wrist.

all I'm saying is that if he's been playing all this time on a "bum" ankle then maybe he wasn't really hurt to begin with. Martin sprains his ankle, he misses 30 games....

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That only goes to show that some people have different pain thresholds. That's about as polite as I can put it.

No, Reke's says his ankle is still sore (see Amick's tweet in the newslinks), but he doesn't plan on missing games. However, he probably shouldn't have played on it Monday, as it was pretty clear it was limiting him.

My problem is I can't be as polite as you when I see someone using logic like that. So I guess from here on out I should just shut my mouth so I don't end up getting "infracted".


However, I thought Jerriyaki's comment was hilarious, just so you know stuff like that would never offend me.

Okay, that's all I wanted to know. When I hear sprained ankle I immediately think that he can barely walk.

Uhm... I wasn't taking a shot at Aries; I was actually taking a shot at Martin.

Sprains aren't all created equal. There's a wide range of severity.

 

[Merdiesel]

This isn't just on Martin. The entire NBA is full of wussies nowadays.

 

[rainmaker]

Amick just said Kevins playing

 

[VF21]

Nice. Amick gets the fanbase all riled up with the rumor that Kevin might not play and then, just before game time, amends it...

 

[Insomniacal Fan]

Is this gamesmanship by the coaching staff to try and mess with Atlanta's preparation? With Kevin Martin providing half of the Kings offense, we're probably starting to look predictable.
