I know... hence the

I'm trying very hard to find the humor in all of this because it's either that or become as angry and bitter as some other Kings fans, and that's just not who I am.

Relax and enjoy a glass of brandy.

There are times when Darren and Marco seem to forget that they have other teammates on the floor.

 

[Npliam]

Is this a game now?

It would appear so.

 

[Kings_of_California]

Zeller just looks like such a solid player.

 

[steelevt]

I know I'm nitpicking cuz collison is having a decent game, but it seems every game he has to try a 1 on 4 drive to the basket against the other team and gets blocked.

 

[New Era]

OMFG

Today hasn't changed my mind about George Karl. This roster can't win using his offensive and defensive concepts.

It's why trading Carmelo improved the Nuggets, because Karl needs his type of players to run his system. He can't adapt to his roster.

But maybe I'm just frustrated by watching such terrible basketball but I'm starting to think you can't win with Demarcus Cousins either. At least not if he's your best player.

When things go wrong he gives up. That's mental weakness and as otherworldly talented as he is it happens way too often.

Maybe not a championship but we should certainly be a lot better than we are with Cousins as our best player. He's simply one of the best in the league and this losing streak doesn't change
that. Who knows what ur post would like had we kept a head coach like Malone who he was actually disciplined under? I dont think he's mentally weak, i think he's fed UP.

I am alittle late to the party here and i just checked the box score.

46 points in the 1st quarter!!!!!?????!!!!! What he hell!

 

[SLAB]

Is it DMC's fault for all these wide open threes? :|

Most of the Sully 3's, yes. Overall, no.

Kings...

Basketball...

Frustration...

Confusion...

Any questions?

 

[hrdboild]

If that's going to be continuation, aren't you basically asking players to flagrant foul there?

 

[Showtime]

Is it DMC's fault for all these wide open threes? :|

No, but it is for Sullinger getting 21 points on 77% shooting.

 

[dude12]

Hard to believe they called continuation on that

 

[miltonap]

Let's go Celtics. Tired of this team underachieving. They do can better

 

[lwc]

Can we get the white hot Casspi like we had against the Warriors?

 

[lawlman91]

FORTY SIX IN THE FIRST

GET OUT

I know I'm nitpicking cuz collison is having a decent game, but it seems every game he has to try a 1 on 4 drive to the basket against the other team and gets blocked.

Every player on every team in every game does something that makes fans shake their heads.

 

[lwc]

Can we stop giving up and-1 opportunities? If you're going to foul be sure they can't hit the shot

 

[biltalent]

Wow, this was the second time we managed to run a cuz post up WITH off ball movement. Improvement!

 

[Kings_of_California]

Cuz looks horrendous. Lazy effort.

There's no defending this performance.

30 points 7 rebounds 6 assist

And he proceeds to drains consecutive 3s right after I say that

 

[NewArena]

Why wouldn't Cuz be frustrated? The refs literally screw him EVERY time

 

[Showtime]

Why wouldn't Cuz be frustrated? The refs literally screw him EVERY time

Because his whining doesn't change ANYTHING so he can be frustrated all he wants, but complaining to the officials while not getting back on defense kills their transition.

 

[ovrush]

When you give up 127 points, it's tough to blame any single player, it's also really tough to win giving up that many points.

(game still not over so the point total is likely to rise)

Dude sucks. This team would be 10x's better without him.

If he would have gotten himself thrown out with his out of control rage problems (just like Grant predicted he would) the Kings would have won this game by at least 15.

 

[hrdboild]

This is the thing with Cousins... he can pout, whine, complain, give up on plays and sulk on the court but when he goes into ridiculous mode and starts doing things that no other player in the league can do, you ask yourself "how can we trade this guy?" He's not giving up 120+ points on his own. Over the course of the season he's both our most effective defender and our most effective offensive player. So yeah, that earns you a bit of leeway. I can understand why some fans would say enough is enough. I just think this guy is 25 and he's doing things and his size that we haven't seen before. Who knows where he could go from here? At times he's incredibly frustrating to watch, but he's never boring and I want a ticket to watch the next 10 years of his career.

Your hyperbole is getting old. Everybody shares blame in this game, including Cousins for allowing Sullinger to go off.

31 points is a lot of points. I just wish it didn't take him 25 shots to get 31 points.
