[Game] Kings @ Grizzlies, 1/17/14 5 PM PST/ 8 PM EST

[t-rex]

At FedEx forum for Kings v Grizz. 32 degrees outside. My 5 year old's first Kings game. Worth it.

If we win, I will be ecstatic. This team probably has turned a corner and I keep waiting to be jerked back into reality. I am too used to watching a loser that goes back to 1985. Many people don't realize how awful we were at the beginning. Didn't we set a record for most consecutive years of any US pro sport without doing better than .500? Anyway, our "glory years" were fun but we reverted back into suckatude oh, so, quickly. I hope our recent winning ways is not all because of Rudy. I don't think he can maintain his present torrid rate. Then again, if he does maintain his pace, we caught lightening in a bottle.

The rational side of me sees improvement in Jimmer, IT trying to be something else, Williams fitting in, defense from Thornton, a revival of JT, an Acy that may find s role, and a giant to back up at the center position if we simply need a huge man. Not everybody is firing on all cylinders so it's not simply that everybody is better. There is room for improvement. Maybe we ARE for real.

Thank you, Vivek!!

Trivia point, just brought up during the Grizzlies' pre-game: Travis Outlaw had his season high during the first game against Memphis, and hasn't hit double-figures since.

Looks like you got a nice seats too

 

[cuad]

I bet the Grizz are going to underestimate the Kings, and then the Kings are going to make them pay.

 

[rainmaker]

No Grant/Jerry again for me.

Yay.

 

[spudfan]

Good start! Gasol is gonna wish he came back after this game.

 

[enigma99a]

go DMC.. hitting his FT early

 

[theclash4u5]

I get off work early, grab dinner and....news10 isn't coming in today through the air antenna. Curse you new living location! Time to listen to the radio and see it another way.

 

[theclash4u5]

Wow I can't believe that jumpshot went in

 

[theclash4u5]

LOL ball moving around weird today

 

[enigma99a]

JT is awesome early.. Hustling on both ends

 

[spudfan]

Back to back turnovers, woopsies.

 

[theclash4u5]

That went over the backboard, why did they count it?

 

[t-rex]

Yeah they aren't bad seats at all. Gasol and Rudy Gay had a long friendly chat before the game.

 

[spudfan]

Guys look a bit amped up, like they did vs the Pacers early. Need to settle down a bit.

 

[Gilles]

Did Randolph dropped 50 pounds or what? Thompson is pushing him with ease.

 

[Glenn]

Give a raise to the guy who tightened the Grizzlies' hoop.

 

[spudfan]

Did Randolph dropped 50 pounds or what? Thompson is pushing him with ease.

When Thompson makes moves like that guys normally fall onto their butt. Randolph isn't one to flop so Thompson is getting away with the extra contact for once.

 

[theclash4u5]

Wow Gray in early

 

[enigma99a]

I love Gray and DMC on the court at the same time. I noticed DMC was setting screens, but now Gray can do that

 

[cuad]

Offense looks bad.

 

[Chubbs]

Just me, or is cuz not happy with rudy at the moment,

 

[miltonap]

well that was a terrible pass, cuz is way taller than randolph, rudy didn't have to pass it that high

 

[Gilles]

Well, Rudy made stupid TO.

 

[spudfan]

Just me, or is cuz not happy with rudy at the moment,

Two bad passes by Rudy already, Cousins is probably annoyed!

 

[spudfan]

Tie game and we are playing bad, I'll take it.

 

[cuad]

They need to give Rudy some post ups. He hasn't taken a shot yet, and he has to. This is bad team management by Isaiah.

 

[Toasty]

Knowing IT he'll get 20 assists
