[Game] Kings-Hornets Summer League - 7/13/14 - 3 pm PDT

Gotcha. Yes, he's scored well in this game but he should as a 3 year NBA vet with a reputation for scoring. The problem is his d still looks bad and both sides look way worse against NBA competition.

Closest thing we have to a vet SG unfortunately

 

[sdballer]

James doesn't pass much, does he

 

[VF21]

Except that we have more regular rotation players playing in summer league than any other team.

I'd be shocked if another team has any many guys who played consistent mins last year out there for them.

That's the depressing part right there.

Im from So Cal, I could easily be a Clipper fan or Laker fan, but ive stuck with this team since I was a middle school kid inspired by Cwebb, Vlade, Peja, that team made me a Kings fan. I have every right to be discontent with what the FO is doing, and its not just the IT thing that im discontent with. I know you like to look at everything with rose colored glasses, but thats not me, especially after nearly a decade of futility. I havent witnessed Kings playoff basketball since I was a freshman in high school. My favorite player of all time is Cwebb, I didnt become a 76er fan after he was traded. I support my former kings like I will IT, but thats it.

There is not anything new you can say about the IT situation. You've made your stance known over and over again. You've been heard.

HAHAHA Defense is playing really well while the offense is really struggling to play any kind of team offense.

 

[sdballer]

That's the depressing part right there.

Yes but the 3 rotation guys we have playing are low iq athletes. Not like it's 3 guys that you would expect to play off each other with skill

I haven't had a chance to read back through the thread, but I'm assuming everyone else is digging Eric Moreland as much as I am. The guys works his ass off and actively seeks out shots to block. Raw on offense. Want to see more.

 

[miltonap]

I'm loving this Moreland/Acy frontcourt. They play with effort and aggression

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Well, I'll go ahead and say it. It already looks like Marshon Brooks is a more valuable player than Ben. He's got a really nice mid range and interior game, with good ball handling. Nice shooting stroke as well

 

[sdballer]

He's solid on offense, but can't play any defense. Not that much of an upgrade. MT didn't help us last year.

What

Yep. I personally am holding out for Bhullar. He makes me smile.

 

[Livinthedream]

What

I meant to respond to a post about Brooks. Disregard

I meant to respond to a post about Brooks. Disregard

That's what I figured

 

[Monster]

wow. wide open for 3 and he steps on the line.

 

[VF21]

Hey Clyde? Have you even met us? We're the Sacramento Kings. We've made a career out of not guarding the guy who's burning us the worst.

 

[Gilles]

You mean Marshon, not Moreland, right?
Moreland still hasn't adjusted to playing like a big man inside, reminds me of early JT.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Ben is a walking nightmare. Wether he has NBA talent or not, his confidence has to be completely shot. Hardly looks like a Y ball player out there.

We have been better with him on the court

 

[Rockmeister]

McLemore out of bounds. He did that a lot last season too.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Ray Mac has been a ghost in summer league. Hardly even noticed that he's played

 

[Monster]

wtf Nik?

 

[VF21]

Ben McLemore gives me the same feeling I used to get watching Francisco Garcia. There's no way he can keep from breaking our hearts over and over and over again. He'll pull a good play out of his posterior just often enough to keep us hoping for the best.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Stauskas getting thoroughly outplayed by the 26th pick isn't exactly exciting

 

[Monster]

Acy got lucky on that last play. Big defensive mistake

 

[sdballer]

Jason Jones ‏@mr_jasonjones 49s
Ben with a nice move off the dribble to put the Kings up 66-60. If he can dribble a lot better he'll be a lot better this season.

Insightful analysis Jason

He looks tired.

 

[VF21]

Probably can't see the line because of the glare from his shoes.

Nik playing he has tired legs

 

[jcwkings]

This is our bench folks, and one starter...oh boy

 

[sdballer]

For all the whining about Ben, his d has been good today
