[Game] Kings @ Clippers - 12/21/12

[Npliam]

Bill Walton LOVES to use the word "ever" in all of his statements, lol.

I love Bill Walton. I wish he did some Jazz games.

I guess we know why the bench looked so happy coming out of the locker room. Must have been told they were going to get all the minutes!

Bledsoe travel?

oh wow theres a double standard. how many times have i been called a Jimmer hater just because i dont share the same opinion as some that he is a future all-star

lol

Show some basketball intelligence in your posts and maybe people would take you more seriously. You prattle along, typing ridiculous comments and then try to rationalize them when you're called on them.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

sure glad Honeycutt is over there to help cheer on the team

 

[lwc]

Sac-town has lead the Clippers 39-34 in the 2nd half scoring. Too bad the Clips had a fantastic 1st half.

 

[Kings Faithful]

I love how two of the starters Thorton and Brooks have disappeared from the game. I know they weren't playing well but your not going to see other coaches doing that.

 

[The_Jamal]

Clippers have 34 points in the 2nd half. That's purely from the effort of IT, Jimmer, Johnson, Hayes, JT, and Trob

Are you really complaining that Honeycutt hasn't played?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

lol

because being realistic about Jimmer's future, rather than praising him as the next Steve Nash, is not basketball intelligence huh?

 

[spudfan]

I really want to know what happened at halftime where some switch was flicked and our bench became the starters. Do you think it's just a case of riding the hot hand?

IT has played 1 1/2 Qs straight.

0 assists in 24 minutes by the way

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Are you really complaining that Honeycutt hasn't played?

no my bigger complaint is that they pulled him away from the D-League where he was playing very good. for what?

And the missed wide open 3 pointers of Odom and Barnes and the like.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

I love how two of the starters Thorton and Brooks have disappeared from the game..

sure could have used some Thornton 3s in this 4th quarter.

Yea, I don't get it. If Smart is all about working towards the long term you would think he would play his starting unit and not move to the bench.

 

[VF21]

Wow! Matt Barnes is now ahead of DMC in technicals? Way to go, Matty B!

 

[sactownfan]

Has Thornton played a single min in the 2nd half?

 

[theclash4u5]

Jimmer on Chris Paul haha

 

[spudfan]

Jimmer on Chris Paul haha

Better than Jimmer on Barnes...

 

[theclash4u5]

Has Thornton played a single min in the 2nd half?

He started it, that's about it.

 

[Npliam]

Jimmer on Chris Paul haha

Uh, he played him pretty well. Paul hit a tough shot with a hand in his face.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

id like to see a statistic showing Keith Smart's wins/losses/double digit loses

i bet his wins and double digit losses are close

 

[spudfan]

Has Thornton played a single min in the 2nd half?

Little bit.

 

[Kings Faithful]

Wtf are these clowns talking about. The Kings never had a chance. The effort was embarrassing. Sure we didn't get blown out but we were a joke on both sides of the floor. Jimmer was the only redeeming factor of this game.

Look at it this way: Our "starters" change game to game anyway. I think Smart found a combination that worked and, for once, didn't kill it. The guys on the court have done a good job and shown effort. (And Walton says pretty much the same thing as I'm typing it.)

Grant just said Smart will address Cousins not coming out in the second half during the post-game. I'll try and summarize it for those of you who don't get the feed.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Jimmer playing well.

 

[VF21]

I agree with Walton. The team did show effort. They're just not very good, especially against a team like the Clippers. It could have been like the last game against LAC...

 

[theclash4u5]

So why run out the same lineup for an entire quarter? I understand riding the hot hand, but come on.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Get Honeycutt in there
