[Game] Kings at Bobcats 2/25/11 Game Thread

Cousins must have said something ..

 

[rainmaker]

Will Diaw ever stop stuffing his face with food? His belly is getting bigger by the year.

 

[Sluggah]

Hey! He's in! And...foul.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Grant and Jerry pulling out the "wow, isn't this downtown arena in Charlotte great" script. Too little too late? I hope not.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Casspi .. needs to work on his defense.

 

[rainmaker]

I wouldn't bench Beno for that, but if you're going to bench Cousins.....

 

[Sluggah]

Oh man. Hilariously bad call times a million! Wow!

 

[Arkitect]

DJ Augustin is embarrassing beno

 

[mac]

This is just ridiculous

 

[Glenn]

Charlotte expects to make $200 mil by hosting the Democratic National convention in 2012 in this arena they play in. Wow! Charlotte has also hosted the women's final four in 1996.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Casspi .. needs to work on his defense.

Why bother? He can completely not touch a guy and still get called for a foul!

 

[Bricklayer]

Yanking him for a minute or two is one thing, but entirely benching him, even to the degree of trusting Jason Thompson of all people not oto pick up his 5th, is dubious and seems like it could cause more problems.

 

[swisshh]

ugh

Bobcats with 30 fta and Cousins is taking just as much contact at the other end with no reward. I see him getting T'd up tnight.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Shoot, that nearly pays for the arena! Hint, hint, Sacramento. Hint, hint.

 

[mac]

Ok I'm calling a 4th quarter come back. Just to be optimistic.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

The lack of D from the 1 and 3 is absolutely killing us tonight. Udirh and Casspi are getting burnt every time down the floor.

 

[Sluggah]

There's the thornton I wanna see

very true

 

[mac]

Goodness our bigs are all such softies. Just dunk that ball strong damnit

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Big three followed by big rejection by Thornton! Nice!

 

[Block Party]

We've got to be the worst defensive team in the league.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

I hate when players look at shooters, then decide to not run out and contest. Makes me sick. Play hard! good things happen.

 

[mac]

DMC has not impressed me at all in the past couple of games. On defense he's a liability, and on offense we're not getting much either.

 

[rainmaker]

We've got to be the worst defensive team in the league.

Far from it when Tyreke is out there.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

The lazyness of this team is really discouraging.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

With Stephen Jackson back in the game I don't think we can afford to stick with this three guard lineup. But apparently we are.

 

[mac]

Far from it when Tyreke is out there.

But team = whole team. It "averages" out ... I don't think we're the worst, but probably pretty close. You take away Tyreke and Dalembert and everyone else is an average defender AT BEST.

 

[Arkitect]

Not even close. We are shockingly average in every category except fg%. Even opp 3pt% is about average. What it really comes down to is that without Tyreke, we lose alot of our defensive advantage.

 

[swisshh]

defensive breakdowns
bad passing and offense
Dj eating Beno alive

losing to a team that has to rely on Najera


As bas the team looks defensively tonight, the offense is even farther behind the defense progress-wise. That's depressing.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

We wont get very far with Westphal as the coach.
