[Game] Kings @ Grizzlies - 12/16/16 - 5PT/8ET

[sactownfan]

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I like Kosta. He plays hard and he doesn't ever give up on a play. It's not his fault he's not the most talented player on the court...

Perfectly suited as a solid NBA bench player

 

[dude12]

How does this statement make even the smallest bit of sense? As opposed to Affalo starting? Or Ben starting????

Temple starting has zero to do with any drop off in offense. He actually are best 3pt shooter??? Ummm

Not going to argue with you and derail the game thread.

 

[Bricklayer]

Just started listening in my car on radio. Can someone explain why we are doing well?

We're both playing the same style of game, but we are the ones out-executing them. Ball movement and defensive hustle have been very good. And Boogie hasn't done anything yet. Of course neither has Gasol.

I love Kosta for what he is. Like you said he brings it, especially on defense. Always ready to go.

 

[sactownfan]

Seriously? Temple starting means we don't have him to count on coming off the bench. It's not rocket surgery.

omg stop ur joking right?

Here's some not rocket science for you ..... Garrett Temple started what's the score?

Give me a break VF what game are u watching? And one of the very few games all season the Kings have taken the lead in the first quarter and held onto it for the first half

I absolutely love seeing Temple pressing on defense before the Grizz get the ball over the line. Wish we'd do that more often.

Reread what you originally responded to. You are missing something.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

This game sounds so good

Whatever... You're either being intentionally obtuse or you really just don't understand what's being said. Either way, I'm done replying to you. I'm having too much fun enjoying the game...

 

[SLAB]

Temple should play roughly 48 minutes a night.

How about a little more rocket science for you. There's a lot of good teams in the league who equal to the starters scoring off their bench....

 

[kingjatt]

Temple

 

[VF21]

I'm seeing teamwork and balance, something that just seems to be missing too often when Rudy is on the court. And I kind of regret saying that, as I've always liked Rudy. The team just seems to work better AS A TEAM without him...

 

[dude12]

I love it when the other teams get techs and not us.....and by that I mean not Boogie

 

[whoopdeedoo]

Following this game on Reddit too, most of Memphis fans miss Kosta and Barnes. Add Temple to the list and we have some well like glue guys on the roster. Feels good!

 

[Gilles]

Marc really slimmed down probably due to foot concern: first simply overpowered by Boogie under the rim, then just flies past him.

I hold my breath every time they say there has been a technical first without telling us who it was.

What? They don't miss Rudy?

Rocket Science Boom!

 

[dude12]

Conley grabs Ty and no call....come on man

 

[whoopdeedoo]

What? They don't miss Rudy?

Someone suggested we give them Rudy and they give us Conley since we seem to be doing better without Rudy and them worse with Conley... they politely declined

 

[gunks]

We're up and Cuz has had a crappy 1st half. ....

.... good sign!

1. Someone said temple starting hurts the offense
2. I point out that that statement is a joke ... evidence being look at this game right now ? are you watching this game right now ?do you know the score of this game right now ?
3. U say I'm not following... umm ok

ONE MORE TIME Temple starting ...really hurting this offense tonight... let's hope he never starts again

 

[sactownfan]

Let's all hope temple never starts again.... who likes winning?

No. What was said was that Temple starting means less firepower coming off the bench. That's why he called it a double-edged sword.

Um, okay?

 

[chief bromden]

Let me check: do I mind not seeing Gay on the court?.... nope, not one bit.

 

[whoopdeedoo]

You are arguing with yourself because you refuse to read what was written. The comment was regards to the bench having less scoring BECAUSE Temple is starting. You yourself said he is a better scorer. So obviously him being a starter means less offense on the bench. Sheesh.

 

[ParniValjak]

That was a VERY good first half despite Cousins not doing much at all. Good execution offensively and very good hustle defensively. Now let's carry on with it in the second half.

 

[whoopdeedoo]

Let me check: do I mind not seeing Gay on the court?.... nope, not one bit.

I don't mind either. I still want that second weapon who can create his own shot reliable (Rudy) AND for others (not Rudy). That would be the dream, no idea how to make it happen at the moment.

Dude....the quote you posted was that with the current backups in without Temple, there was very little offense on the floor without him. Someone tried to point it out to you but like VF said, your either being obtuse or I you just want to rage against Joerger...... By the way we are winning. Why don't you enjoy the game?
