Lol...JT with 2 really bad fouls back to back.

Reading the thread doesn't sound like Kings are off to a good start. Glad I am still at work.

Get home. You may be the missing part of the puzzle.

 

[Spike]

Thought starting IT would cure the slow starts.

Why?
Not directed at you particularly, but inserting a player whose skillset doesn't complement our franchise player (and now other star) isn't a recipe for consistent success. Surprisingly, adding another scorer doesn't always result in more points. Now when they go to the bench, there really isn't anyone to get some points.

 

[dude12]

Whatever moves we make, please keep Acy....he's ready to mix it up with anyone.....don't mess with Acy

 

[The_Jamal]

We should probably try playing some defense.

 

[Fear the Putin]

meh, the Kings are still [deleted]

 

[JLoss22]

this is terrible. We should not be this bad...

We may be allergic; can't be too careful.

That was the argument when GV started.

I didn't say it made any sense. That was sarcasm.

He just let Teague get right in the lane and find a guy for a wide open 3. Unbelievable.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

gross

 

[Chupacabra]

Every team we play makes absolutely everything to start off the game while we seem to shoot with our eyes closed. I'm getting really tired of it. I'm about to start watching these games starting from the 2nd quarter.

Why not? We are a team in flux on the road. I'm not putting them down as I think we are on the way but aren't at the "way" yet or anywhere near it.

 

[miltonap]

Why are teams able to rain threes on us every sngle game. I don't get it. What the hell is going on in practice. Unnecessary double teams, slow rotations, and no awareness. It's terrible to watch.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Friday in Miami is going to be so bad lol

 

[Chicken Chaser]

Game's over--I played against the Hawks on NBA 2K14 the other day and got blown out by 20 points. /lol

I expect the Heat game to be within five points. Typical of this team.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Is it just me or the last few games do the Kings play bad until JT goes to the bench and then they start catching up?

 

[Chubbs]

Cuz refused to,pass to IT on that fast break.

That made my day. And he got the assist.

true, very typical of them to play to the opponents level. but Miami has been a team that routinely blows us out (besides last years game in MIA)

Cuz is a better playmaker than our PG, lol

Confirmation bias.

Scary coincidence with me as well regarding the Bobcats game. I played them as well on NBA 2k14 with the Kings and lost by 11 points (98-87, very close to the real score), but the freaky thing was that Gay got injured in the game as well .

 

[The_Jamal]

Hey look! My theory of "playing defense" really made us play better on the court.

Who woulda thunk it?

 

[RaY Z]

GREAT END to the quarter. D-will unlucky to miss that last shot. Nice to be down by only 2 points, after a horrid start.

COMMON KINGS!!!

 

[Larry89]

Cousins being soft this game

 

[New Era]

I think there was 8 Pizza Guys commercials during that 1st quarter.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Ben showed more in that quarter than he has shown in some time, which is unfortunately indicative of what he has shown lately

They're not even playing to their opponents' level: that would imply that they only play poorly against teams worst than them, which there aren't any. It's called only getting up to play elite teams, for the most part. If they were playing to their opponents' level, they'd be doing much better against the Atlantas and Portlands of the league.
