[Game] Kings @ Grizzles, 1/18/13, 5:00 Pacific

Only thing making this tolerable at the moment is the rakia I'm sipping, and with your Greek background you might be the only one here who knows what it is.

Send me some.

I for one cant wait till we get new owners and can ship out smart and MT! This is so god stupid...the second i saw Garcia and company check in i knew the game was lost....this lineup has failed 9 out of 10 times and yet we always see it....

more like 30 times out of 31.

and yes thats gonna be my favorite part of new owners, they will can Keith Smart before they even get to their new offices

 

[Kings Faithful]

WHAT IS THIS!? He has a timeout, doesn't change the lineup. But THEN sends 3 guys to the scorers table to come in at the next dead ball? What kind of dumb coaching is that. Just put them in during the timeout if you wan't them in.

Then waves them off after scoring 2 baskets!! WHAT A FOOL!

 

[HereWeBoogie]

god Garcia what the hell are you doing in the NBA?

 

[spudfan]

But then decides to do a lineup sub 10 seconds after play resumes??!!? What!?!?!?

Then waits another 10 seconds to get Cousins in.... what is his problem?

 

[treach1976]

we're 10 players deep after 15 minutes? This is not considering "tightening" up a lineup. This is some bull. Either trade away our unnecessary players or get a new coach. Why does he get our hopes up like that just to mess with us? If you're not going to tighten up the rotations then don't say so.

Yeah - tightening his lineup just means he isn't going to play jimmer

 

[rainmaker]

I've been critical of Jimmer earlier this year but there is no way in hell 10 guys should have gotten in the game ahead of him tonight after last game's performance. I just can't explain this crap.

 

[Tetsujin]

If Reke hits that at a respectable rate, watch out.

 

[Glenn]

It is absolutely disgusting that as we follow this game as a group of fans, we waste our time discussing Smart. That's not criticism of ya'll but I'd rather discuss basketball. Damn!!!!!

im right there with u. Brooks, Garcia and Hayes should not be seeing ANY MINUTES AT ALL. JJ and Jimmer should.

 

[rainmaker]

Send me some.

Lol. It's strong. Home brewed in Eastern Europe.

 

[spudfan]

I have never seen such an indecisive coach.

Calls a timeout because other team goes on a run. No subs.
Sends subs to bench as soon as play begins to bring 3 guys in.
Team scores a couple points, waves some guys off, lets some guys in.
Sends players back to scorers table to check in that he just waved off.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

It shouldn't be this hard. If Aaron Brooks isn't scoring, don't play him. If Cisco isn't shooting well and he's not giving you anything on defense, don't play him. If Chuck has no one to defend, don't play him.

 

[Tetsujin]

I don't mind brining Hayes in against a paint-heavy team like the Grizz. I agree with the rest of your post though.

 

[Kings Faithful]

Did everyone see how Wayne Ellington drove the ball in then made a lightning pass back out?!?!? That is what we need on this team. He had no intention of scoring, he was running in to make play.

maybe if Randolph was playing tonight but hes not, Hayes has no business in the game

 

[Glenn]

Lol. It's strong. Home brewed in Eastern Europe.

I'm honestly not sure I can watch this sober.

 

[Tetsujin]

The fact we're only down thirteen is amazing.

He's indecisive beyond belief. Really, he's a pansy and coaches scared. Afraid to make the tough decisions or even stick to the decisions he does make for more than a couple mins.

 

[spudfan]

Brooks was the only person to touch the ball all the way down to 10 seconds on the shot clock... then shot it.

 

[Glenn]

Will we hit 30 pts by half time? It would be no problem if we used one of our best shooters unless of course we are supposed to be worried about said shooter's defense.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

What kind of jump ball was that?

 

[Tetsujin]

At this point, the only guys who should allowed to touch the ball on offense are Reke and Cuz

 

[spudfan]

I'd put him in with Tyreke. And at the moment I think he is not only one of our best shooters, but one of the best shooters in the league from 3 and FT.

 

[Glenn]

What was that by Brooks?

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Brooks being Brooks.

 

[rainmaker]

I'm honestly not sure I can watch this sober.

Smart will turn us into alcoholics....

 

[HereWeBoogie]

seriously why is Garcia in this game

 

[Tetsujin]

James Johnson is in now. Great rotations coach.

 

[Kings Faithful]

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.
