[Game] Kings @ Mavericks - 2/13/13

[HereWeBoogie]

Turn off the lights. Game over

yep. second quarter, once again

 

[Kings Faithful]

Smart takes a timeout but lets be honest. He has zero clue on what he is going to do.

 

[rainmaker]

Why are we running IT/JJ pick & rolls instead of Reke/Cuz?

 

[Kings Faithful]

yep. second quarter, once again

Its funny, In our Kevin Martin years this team always broke down in the final moments of the fourth quarter. A year or two ago it was the 3rd quarter. Now its consistently the second quarter.... at least before we could watch most of the game before it would get out of hand.

 

[Tetsujin]

IT proving he is great at defense

 

[gunks]

I'm pretty sure the Smart hire was about a tax write off for the Maloofs.

Dont businesses get write offs for hiring the mentally handicapped?

 

[flipray]

Reke barely getting touches again.

I'm pretty sure he just showed them one hell of a powerpoint

[flipray]

Even Jerry's saying that the team needs to get Reke involved.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

what a great play to end the half. dribble the ball for 20 seconds and toss it to your Center for a 3.

 

[flamecrow]

we're going to lose. isaiah is too small, fredette gets burned every single defensive play, and keith smart ugly rotations. i don' tknow if i want to even finish watching

 

[Maverick]

I'm at the game. Kings look uncoached. giving up easy looks. and playing street ball on offense. Cousins turning the ball over. reke showing his talent at the rim.

 

[Bricklayer]

Has anybody but me noticed how a good 2/3 of the tiem when we come out of a tiimeout the play Smart has drawn up is designed for John f'ing Salmons? All seaosn long this goes on. Its ridiculous. John has hit 1 shot on the night. He averages 8.6ppg on 41% shooting on the year. But there's our genius coach thinking that he's the guy we have to draw up plays for because gettign John going = victory.

 

[Padrino]

yup. there it was. keith smart's patented SQS, in full effect (that's second quarter sabotage for the uninitiated)...

That is a frightening trend if you carry it forward to its natural conclusion next year.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

no wonder Smart is tanking this game, he doesnt want Mark Cuban to be mad and not give him ribs

Kings may have not won in Dallas in 10 years but one good thing: post game BBQ in locker room courtesy of Mark Cuban. Looking forward to it!

 

[Kings Faithful]

That is a frightening trend if you carry it forward to its natural conclusion next year.

Except everything that caused that trend will be gone next year. God willing.

 

[rainmaker]

Reke standing off the ball in the corner is working wonders for us now.

Yep, have also noticed we often turn the ball over coming out of a timeout and/or get a horrible look.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Anybody want to speculate as to why Evans has only taken one shot since the first quarter?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

i remember that game with the Clark buzzer beater, if i remeber correctly Keon CLark also hit another game winner that same week

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Keith told him everyone needs their fair share of shots

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Hey, look! Evans hit a free throw!

Two in a row! W00t~!

 

[Glenn]

It isn't in Tyreke's personality to be assertive but someone has to tell the team to get him the damn ball. Tyreke or Cuz. IT is a good player but he creates a problem by being a scorer and hardly will be the guy to tell the team to get the ball to Teke. Give Reke the damn ball!

 

[flipray]

Hey, look! Evans hit a free throw!

Two in a row! W00t~!

Hell yea. He probably wont get another touch now

 

[Kings Faithful]

We are the worst team in the league at finishing fast breaks. Even when we get fouled we should be getting and 1's at a much more consistent rate.

 

[Glenn]

Didn't Tyreke get the most minutes early in his career? Somehow this roster needs reshuffling.

 

[Agent23]

His minutes have declined every year.

 

[spudfan]

I think IT may be a little more confident in his 3 pointers than he should be.
