An early one today. Hopefully, players did not enjoy LA too much last night.
Such games remind one of the PO except that we play Clippers who are alergic to any kind of post season other than fishing. Whoever makes better adjustments will win the game.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If Kings play like on Saturday, they will lose and spoil the rest of the day. More effort is needed including the fact that "effort players" need more PT. If we just trade baskets today we will lose. We need defense and rebounding. We have players who can do that. They need to play more.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CW - hopefully his knees feel good. He will have a tough one with Brand (goes both ways). Needs to play better defense today. If he does and he gives us a somewhat similar offensive display with less turnovers - we will be OK.
Pedja - he got outrebounded by Simmons by 10. Sad - very sad. Needs to do better. Other than that - he is really doing well lately. The fact that he is only "3rd option" who averages 20+ pts shows how strong Kings are as a team. Needs to rebound.
Brad - inconsistant as of late which is not good. We need more from him. Less fouls and "talking to officials" - more rebounds, passes and shots.
Bibby - After Saturdays's game somebody was comparing his numbers to Brunson's. Not only is that very pathetic but any time that happens - Kings have a good chance of losing. Now, his ankle is obviously bothering him - but then why play him 35 minutes. He does not defend when he is healthy. What can we expect now ? The good thing about Mike is that he always bounces back. We need him but we do not need to force the issue with his minutes.
Mobley - Had an OK game I guess. We were getting those numbers from Evans and Martin too, so it did not make a big difference. He will be better with time. He does need to pass more to Kings player not named Webber.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tag - it was very pathetic decision not to give tag more minutes. Defense and rebounding was needed and Tag did not play. Go figure.
Darius - plays well at home. Will see what he can do on the road. His usual contribution would be appreciated.
Evans - needs to stay consistant. Hopefully he is doing OK. Getting more and more important on daily basis. We might not be able to resign him after this season.
Martin - his DNP - CD was
. RA said that he will find time for him. So far he lied. There are no excuses for not playing him. Give him at least some minutes so he can continue to grow out there. He earns evey single one.
House - patience is a virtue. So far only quality seams to be the fact that he married Mike's sister. Other than that ...
Barnes & Bradly - see Mateen for further instructions
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
RA - will be very interesting to see how he will make adjustmets. Hope he will start his press conference with his usual " it was a good win" opening. Let the kids play RA - just let them play.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clippers came very close on Saturdy. Now, the play at home and they know the can beat us. Who is next in the line to have career night agains us ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go Wizards !
Go Raptors !
Go Pistons !
Go Jazz ! (higher cause)
