[Game] Kings @ Celtics - 12/2/16 - 4:30PT/7:30ET

[SacTownGrantFan]

Savvy foul grab by Collison.

 

[SacTownGrantFan]

Probably need a 3 now

 

[kingjatt]

Winable game blown by Joergers starting lineups, hopefully this loss wakes him up.

 

[New Era]

How does that guy make 3's with that shooting motion?

 

[lawlman91]

is 916 an actual play?

 

[jcwkings]

I feel like this team is starting to max out its potential. Good enough to compete on most nights but will lose more close games than win them. 35-37 wins.

 

[sactownfan]

well it would be nice to see this team start without Koufos and Affalo .... maybe Ben and Casspi ... or Ben and Barnes...

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

So... what is Alex Oriakhi doing these days?

 

[New Era]

Do NOT take a foul here

 

[lawlman91]

cousins uses that one powerup where his HP decreases by 500 every 10 seconds, but gets +5000 attack

I might be tempted to believe that if the head coach didn't insist on handicapping us with slow starts from his inexplicable starting lineup.

Apparently in the Turkish Basketball League.

 

[jcwkings]

The bad part is that Koufos and Afflalo fit much better in the second unit. Afflalo becomes a guy you can go to for shots and Koufos anchors the defense(what he makes his money for).

 

[PurpleHaze]

That was the called play out of timeout? Ouch!

 

[New Era]

So lame

 

[kingjatt]

Lack of a perimeter player who can create a shot killed us there.

 

[SacTownGrantFan]

I'll say it....Cousins and Gay were most responsible for this loss in Boston.

 

[Blob]

well it would be nice to see this team start without Koufos and Affalo .... maybe Ben and Casspi ... or Ben and Barnes...

Or Ben and Willie

 

[Larry89]

so the play was to just demarcus the ball at the three

 

[jcwkings]

You HAVE to have a better play than that out of a timeout.

 

[sactownfan]

Or Ben and Willie

Bens actually earned more time tho... Willie has been really bad going back to summer league... but i'd almost take anyone over Koufos

 

[kingjatt]

Even a mediocre Jamal Crawford type would do wonders for us

 

[Blob]

Agree, Willie has been mostly terrible and this is the Joerger dilemma, he's started Koufos by default because no one else has stepped up

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Apparently in the Turkish Basketball League.

I don't even like Isaiah Thomas, but somebody's head had to roll for that trade. I don't mean, somebody should have been fired, I mean someone should have been beheaded, live on the six o'clock news.

Somebody tell me again why I should have any faith in this organization's ability to get assets for Cousins, if they decide to blow it up? There isn't a single nan poster who's still salty about losing Thomas that should want us to trade Cousins; with our track record, we won't even end up with a handful of magic beans.

 

[kingsboi]

9 and counting....that was the best play they could draw up in 9 seconds? what a waste.

You realize that Pete D'Alesandro was responsible for that decision and he is no longer with the organization?

 

[SacTownKid]

Or Ben and Willie

Temple and Barnes. You put two scrappers in around your offensive 3 in Collison, Gay, and Cuz.

 

[Kingsfan23]

I don't have confidence in what Joerger is doing with the merry go lineups, but at this point I think I am fully on board with blowing it up. As a Cousins fan, I don't know if this team will be able to get off the ground in time

 

[Blob]

Temple and Barnes. You put two scrappers in around your offensive 3 in Collison, Gay, and Cuz.

I am okay with Temple over A-Slow-o, but Barnes is not a PF.....that idea is a bit of joke really.

EDIT: Barnes can't shoot as a stretch 4 and he can't rebound....so to pretend he's a legitimate starter at PF (33% career on 3s, 32% this season) is delusional. I'd rather throw Willie out there and let him figure it out.

Play Rudy as the 4?
