Oh good, here comes James Johnson, our ELEVENTH player of the half.

 

[Bibbilicious]

"We're going to tighten up the rotations to a nice 11, keep it consistent "

 

[Kings Faithful]

Good thing Jimmer isn't in the game... if he was Conley would have been EVEN MORE wide open than he was with IT on him...

 

[mac]

Wow IT got S.T.U.C.K on that screen.

 

[Bibbilicious]

Ok why did Brooks even come in? What was the point? To throw up a three pointer on a fast break?

 

[Tetsujin]

I'm starting to warm up to the idea of trading for Pau... or at least someone with his passing ability. Watching Marc Gasol making plays makes me envious of that.

Except a trade for Pau would probably cost us Cuz + Reke.

 

[Glenn]

James Johnson is in now. Great rotations coach.

That's 11 in his shortened rotation.

 

[Tetsujin]

And the Oscar goes to Grant and Jerry

 

[spudfan]

Wow IT got S.T.U.C.K on that screen.

IT is a screen magnet. Always gets stuck to them. It is really really really really bad.

 

[treach1976]

That's 11 in his shortened rotation.

Smart's playing against a guy that own's Jimmer in his fantasy league this week.

 

[rainmaker]

Genuinely curious at to how someone can go from one of our three most important players in the 2nd half only 24 hrs ago, to not being one of the 11 guys playing in the first half tonight. 11 guys in the first 17 mins!

 

[Kings Faithful]

Except a trade for Pau would probably cost us Cuz + Reke.

Pau's been playing like crap and has a massive contract. Lakers would probably give him up for MT plus some of our bench players. I'd still have to think about it because Pau is older... but someone with passing ability like that awesome.

 

[Tetsujin]

IT is a screen magnet. Always gets stuck to them. It is really really really really bad.

But he's our X-factor. Or something.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Except a trade for Pau would probably cost us Cuz + Reke.

ya nobody ever wins a trade with the Lakers

 

[twslam07]

11 deep in the 1st half after saying he is going to a tight rotation. Give me a break man

 

[Tetsujin]

Gee. A couple of three pointers would be great right now.

 

[Bibbilicious]

And the Oscar goes to Grant and Jerry

Haha their commercials are painful sometimes.

 

[The_Jamal]

Only Smart would find a way to make one of the top shooters in the NBA a 12th man.

 

[mac]

I have a feeling the guys were out partying last night celebrating a 1 point win over the Wizards

 

[spudfan]

Come on guys, you had 10923810321830138 open shots. If you are open shoot it please.

 

[Tetsujin]

JJ is good at defense. Which means Smart hates him.

 

[treach1976]

lol @ the announcers flashing Jimmer stat's (4th in the league in 3pt) - veiled attack on Smart?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

thomas screws up another fast break

 

[The_Jamal]

Gee, James Johnson plays great defense. Who knew?

 

[Tetsujin]

Remember guys, IT is a great passer.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

JJ plays great defense on Gay AS EXPECTED. Keith Smart is the only man in the universe that would play Garcia over him

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

James Johnson should actually be in the rotation, by the way. He should be taking any of Cisco's minutes and most of Chuck Haye's minutes, unless Hayes actually has someone to guard.

 

[spudfan]

One of you guys that really likes IT can you tell me what it is you see in him being so vital to the team? I see him as another bench player in the league who gets swapped around from team to team. Having trouble connecting him to the level some here talk about him.

 

[Arkitect]

You know I am actually suprised Cuz has not had more incidents. If I had to play with these guys night in and night out I would be yelling and trying to punch people too.

 

[The_Jamal]

I wonder what it's like having 2 elite defenders on a roster like Gasol and Allen
