Kings at Pistons, 1/15/11 Game Thread

[Tetsujin]

Despite the fact that our two best players had offnights (If you can call 14/10 in 23 minutes an offnight at all) we prevailed. This Miracle in Madison Square happened for two reasons: 1) We played defense and 3) Beno was possessed by the ghost of Pistol Pete.

Sammy D had his best performance as a King, blocking shots, generally not sucking on offense, and making Amare's life a living hell.


Under Construction.

I'm optomistic about our chances in this one. True we did win last night with neither Tyreke or Cousins playing that well, although neither played poorly, but I figure at least one of them will play better tonight.

Detroit is a mess right now, and Rip has been benched indefinitely, probably until he is traded. Looks like Tyreke will get a chance to start against, and guard his childhood idol, Tmac.

I thought Rekes idol was Penny Hardaway?

Anyway its great to see Reke back. He brings a full sized body to our defense, something we dont see with Head, Taylor, or Pooh

I've heard him mention both as players he looked up to and watched a lot growing up.

Let's go for back 2 back wins! Detroit is beatable IF we play well

 

[Krunker]

I'm not as optimistic on this one, I think our guys will be tired. Second of a back to back, east coast swing, fourth game in five nights, doesn't bode well but if Detroit is in disarray maybe we will be on it.

You are already a winner... what kind of pizza?
La Rosa's?

 

[Krunker]

It's a cabbage! That's what we got up here, snow, salmon, giant vegetables, and reality tv shows.

Ok, back on topic, looking forward to a Monroe/Cousins matchup!

 

[TheWileyVet]

Love the vision DCuz has for a big man

 

[TheWileyVet]

Tyreke's defense has been less than stellar this year. Seems like he walks around a lot on defense. Effort isn't there like it should be

 

[TheWileyVet]

Nice to see JT get involved early

 

[cuad]

Tayshaun Prince always poops all over us.

 

[gunks]

I know Cisco is supposed to be this scrappy defender and all...But the man has no business guarding 3s. They kill him.

 

[TheWileyVet]

Nice steal and bucket Reke!

 

[cuad]

Nice inbound pass Greg Monroe.

 

[TheWileyVet]

What a pass by Cousins

 

[cuad]

JT bricks a layup and gives a Gasol squeal.

 

[TheWileyVet]

Prince plays like a freaking all pro against us

 

[Sac.1989]

boogies going for a triple double tonight

 

[gunks]

Box out Cuz!!

It seems like Monroe already has at least 5 O-Boards.

 

[chief bromden]

Prince plays like a freaking all pro against us

Yeah, he's had a couple real smart plays so far. You think Casspi can ever get to around his level?

 

[gunks]

Westphal on Reke: "He doesnt make excuses"

lolz

 

[AusKing]

Nice pass by Reke

 

[TheWileyVet]

That would be awesome. Prince's level is prolly Casspi's ceiling. Maybe a little more athletic tho

 

[TheWileyVet]

$10 says KG really did call Villanueva a cancer patient

 

[TheWileyVet]

That was ****ing sick!!!

 

[TheWileyVet]

Tyreke would avg 10 apg if ppl could just knock down shots

 

[chief bromden]

The whole team has looked amazing thus far. Very fun to watch.
