[Game] Kings @ Nuggets - 1/3/17 - 6PT/9ET

[Blob]

Matt Barnes is terrible.

 

[dude12]

Nice FB DC

 

[dude12]

DC aggressive to the rack....like that, do it more

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Finally, an ending to a quarter where we stole the lead.

So Afflalo gets healthy right after coach says Malachi's going to get some run?



Sigh...

 

[dude12]

Denver makes 3's
Sac doesn't make 3's

 

[Blob]

I watching this game on a 5-10 minute delay....don't post any spoilers

 

[Blob]

This is why the Collision critics needed to relax...he's too fast and too good of a shooter to struggle indefinitely

 

[dude12]

Bench mob is playing fairly well

 

[chief bromden]

Tolliver falling asleep on D and not hitting threes tonight.... Malachi please save us

 

[jcwkings]

I feel like every teams scouting report must be launch threes, Kings will give you open threes. Even if they are guarding you, run a pick , make one or two passes and you will get a wide open three.

I was vehemently opposed to Willie before the draft, with Mudiay, Myles Turner, Justice and Johnson all on my board ahead of him. I started to be somewhat hopeful post-draft once I reviewed his Chicago pre-draft numbers and listened to interviews and he came across as a thoughtful intelligent guy.

But the warning signs at Kentucky were undeniable. Stagnant production over three years and propensity to disappear in key moments. He was invisible in the final game of his career. He deferred to KAT and was too cool for school. He was a non-assertive entity too often, and we are seeing that now.

In retrospect and at the time, picking him was the safe pick, because he had the pedigree from the top school and the team was in desperate need of defensive-minded player. But when you are drafting at #6, you need to go for the star. Willie did not show or project star potential. Unless there is a dramatic and an unexpected change related to strength, aggressiveness, confidence, shot blocking, rebounding and scoring prowess, drafting Willie was a mistake.

It may be better to cut our losses now instead of hoping for a miracle.

Yeah, I recall there were a few anti Willie folk on the board.

And believe me, I wouldn't really be sad to see WCS go, if the trade is right.

I'd rather ship Ben out though. I don't care how good he is in practices.

 

[Kingsfan23]

I can't stand WCS

 

[The Hammer]

I'm feeling embarrassed at all the positive interpretations of WCS's game I had been churning out in the past week or so.

I'm sorry.

 

[dude12]

Cuz just schooled Jokic

 

[dude12]

I think Denver bitches more than we do at the refs

 

[Blob]

The Nuggets sideline reporter is cute.

 

[dude12]

Kings making a run....runs are fun

 

[funkykingston]

Lots more energy this quarter.

Early on it looked like the Kings were the team coming off a back to back.

 

[Blob]

Affalo plays better as a SF not a SG

 

[jcwkings]

HAVE to go with Barnes and Casspi at 3/4. Koufos/Cousins gives us absolutely nothing tonight(and most nights).

 

[The Hammer]

Very pleased to see calm poise after two rough losses. Very good sign of team growth.

 

[lawlman91]

we look like a decent team help me im crying

 

[Blob]

Dang Willie got yanked after like 1 minute

 

[Blob]

Brick by Barnes

 

[Blob]

Very pleased to see calm poise after two rough losses. Very good sign of team growth.

Or just taking advantage of a team that played last night.

 

[Tetsujin]

Kings apparently play better when Doug Christie is the color commentator.

 

[Blob]

Collison is too fast for Mudiay

 

[dude12]

So when we drafted WCS...I liked him and Mudiay equally.....err, neither one is panning out so far
