Finally getting a chance to watch this game after a few missed games. This defense of ours is just so frustrating.

 

[gman23]

How many fouls does Ben have?

Never mind......3

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Hey, Marcus.

 

[gman23]

I feel bad for coach Malone. Trying his best but doesn't have the right pieces.

 

[Kingsfan23]

As soon as Rudy gets it one on one it ain't passed, man needs his points

 

[Lennox]

JT, Rudy, Jimmer these are not my favorite things.

Other than the air ball he played well, should have 2 assists. Rudy seems to be hurt still.

 

[cuad]

IT almost didn't pass to Rudy Gay for that 3.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Good stuff from Thornton. Active, low stance defensively. Strong take in transition. We could use some of that. Defense has been much better since he entered the game.

 

[upinsmoke]

IT almost didn't pass to Rudy Gay for that 3.

FACT

 

[The_Jamal]

3-ball keeping us in it

 

[dude12]

When MT has gotten an opportunity to play, it looks to me like he's working his butt off out there. Not a big fan of his but he certainly should be the back up 2 before the Outlaw/Gay fiasco....unless the plan is to tank or showcase.

 

[Tyndel]

Thornton showing some interest in the game and moving. nice to see.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Nice thornton

 

[Kingsfan23]

Thornton just cost us the momentum

 

[JLoss22]

Did anybody see Nicholson back down Thompson..... LMAOOOOO

 

[dude12]

Nicholson just backed JT down in the post and scored easily...Nicholson doesn't have much low post game man

 

[Kingsfan23]

As a team there just seems to be an imbalance of offense, Pete has work to do still

 

[JLoss22]

I said a while ago JT gets bullied and I got scolded for it. That was the best evidence.

Thompson got embarrassed on that play, no question. I'll still take him over everyone else on the team in that situation, ten times out of ten.

 

[chasen4r1]

Rudy's shoulder is really bothering him. Could be a concern..

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

That was great defense from Thornton 1v1 against Afflalo. He deserves some minutes. Good stretch for him.

Even DeMarcus? He's not easy to move in the post on either end.

We need to upgrade the 4 so bad.

 

[The_Jamal]

No, but Nicholson def is a "skill" guy. Has a bit of handle and a good jumper so he's a solid offensive player.

 

[Gilles]

Despite the stupid TO, I like this new Thornton. Intensity last seen, when he just got traded here, I think.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Even DeMarcus? He's not easy to move in the post on either end.

I trust Cousins more against players facing up than I do against players backing down, yes.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Rudy's shoulder is really bothering him. Could be a concern..

Fortunately we've got a few days off, after this game

 

[The_Jamal]

Pretty happy to only be down 2, especially with weak-ish scoring from Gay and Cousins. Same deal as the last few weeks though: Offense looks great, and we can't defend a traffic cone

 

[swisshh]

Thornton is finally playing like he needs to earn his minutes.

 

[Kingsfan23]

This might be unpopular but in a way it's nice to support a team that isn't the playoff race and benefits with losses as well - you can support freely and not get too wrapped up in result
