Cp3 vs Tyreke,

Cp3 with 30/20/5/5 game

LOL it wont be THAT bad.. But I am thinking it will be a pretty easy double double for him tonight.. All the while Tyreke will Tyreak and put up 15pts 5rbd 3ast 6to on 5-15 shooting..

Kings lose byyyyyyyyy 20.

Have I taken over the spot of the biggest Anti-King? eep.. I am reminding myself of Major League (movie) with those three bleacher fans that were razzing the Indians until they got better. Let's hope this year we get John Wall...

Not sure what to think of May starting in front of Hawes. I think Hawes is the better of the 2 and I think he will get the starter spot sooner rather than later. He really needs to improve his defense and play harder on the defensive end. Hawes needs to worry more about defense and rebounding than he does shooting 3 pointers. He really needs to get down low and mix it up. I think PW is trying to send Hawes a message, but not sure if it helps the team as a whole to keep bringing Hawes off the bench for long. Especially if May gets abused by the other team's starting center on a regular basis. If Hawes is in there getting abused, at least he is learning.

I don't think anyone really knows of what to make out of May starting. I think everyone, from the front office down to the casual fan knows spencer is the better of the two, and has much more of an upside than may.

I'm hoping Westphal is starting May to send a message to the front office. He's clearly telling petrie this team doesn't have enough height. He's said it publicly. He might be trying to force Petrie to add depth to the frontline. At least thats the most logical explanation I can come up with, because May at center is not a short or long term solution.

Evans is not and will NEVER be a true PG. He is a SG and he plays like that. He is a volume shooter with emphasis on the volume and he is not "pass first" type of player. Just not in his DNA. He can still be very good player. Already way better defensively than Kevin. He will need time but his tru spot is SG.

What is will ever be, hugh? After one game it might be a tad bit early to fix Tyreke's position and his potential.

What is the difference between having a fetish and obssessive compulsive disorder? I don't know, but volumes of posts on this board concerning a "true" point guard have me running to the medical dictionary. As if somebody should even care whether he is "true" or "untrue", when the Boston Celtics didn't have a "true" point guard and the Chicago Bulls didn't have a "true" point guard and the recent Laker championship team didn't have a "true" point guard, and our beloved oh so dear and near to the championship Kings didn't have a "true" point guard. Tell me, why should I care one infinitesimal microdot about whether Tyreke is "true" or untrue?

Maybe we just might have a very good "untrue point guard". You know, because he might not be "true" pg doesn't necessarily make him a shooting guard. People seem to be making that assumption, but it's not necessarily so. He could be great as the Kings untrue point guard and LOUSY as a shooting guard.

[Merdiesel]

Box out Nocioni, you worthless piece...!

 

[Nighthawk1]

looks like he got lost on defense, but most our team is still lost on defensive assignments....

I don't agree with it, but he's the coach...
