[Game] Kings @ Hawks 2/22/13

[HereWeBoogie]

well were 3 players short tonight, so in one regard, Keith Smart CANT put more than 11 people in the rotation tonight, the problem with that is one of those people is Travis Outlaw.

also curious to see how many 3s we give up to Kyle Korver since we have learned that Smart clearly isnt worried about guarding 3pt shooters

 

[Spike]

Well, the rotation should be tighter...

 

[Fear the Putin]

when do we get the new guys?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

sunday

 

[jcunny33]

I've finally got a game on TV because of Atlanta. And I won't be up until 1:30am!

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Cousins might actually get 35+ minutes tonight!

 

[spudfan]

Good start...

 

[Kingsnbucs1987]

Reke's gonna have a hard night if Smith is gonna check him the whole game

 

[spudfan]

Doubt it, Reke should be able to beat Smith easy.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

the Hawks look like they are playing at like 40% effort level

 

[Kingsnbucs1987]

Doubt it, Reke should be able to beat Smith easy.

Smith seems like he's athletic enough to keep up with him, it should be fun to watch.

 

[Glenn]

Tyreke can actually shoot from the outside. Watch out league!

 

[Kingsnbucs1987]

Man, Evans has really improved his set shot, I don't think I can remember a time before this season that he's had a set shot, it's always been a fadeaway of some sorts.

 

[Glenn]

I would tell Cuz to knock off the fancy stuff but man, nice move.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

starting to think maybe the ball should go to Cousins. nobody can guard him

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Wow. This arena is dead.

 

[spudfan]

Smith seems like he's athletic enough to keep up with him, it should be fun to watch.

Smith isn't guarding him as far as I can see. It is Stevenson, number 92.

 

[Glenn]

Wow. This arena is dead.

Nothing for them to cheer for and I hope it stays that way.

 

[rainmaker]

So Reke is rated as the best post up guard in the league by synergy, yet we seem intent on posting JT and Salmons instead.

Beautiful.

 

[jcunny33]

I think he was shoot first, pass 2nd on that one.

 

[flipray]

Hopefully Reke will work on his off the dribble jumper. If he gets that down with the way he goes to the rim, he'll basically be a mini Lebron

Beautiful.

JT has so many great post moves

 

[spudfan]

Anyone an expert at getting around screens? What's the deal with IT? Why does he struggle so much getting around them?

 

[Kingsnbucs1987]

Smith isn't guarding him as far as I can see. It is Stevenson, number 92.

I saw him guarding on the first possession so I assumed that they were gonna do it?

 

[rainmaker]

In honor of Dikembe, who's being interviewed on the ATL broadcast, who I have a lot of respect for, here's his funny commercial.

 

[spudfan]

Think he was just the first one back on that play.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Tyreke post up results in a foul

 

[flipray]

Hey look, Reke at the post and drawing a foul. Should do that more often

 

[analoq]

Can somebody set the organ on fire please

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

We are playing well. Like we did against the Spurs, by the way. ATL is just worse. Good stuff so far.
