[Game] Kings @ Nuggets - 2/23/16 - 6 PT, 9 ET

[Merdiesel]

I'm surprised the combo of Ben & Gay hasn't been used to eliminate Jokic.

 

[Glenn]

We seem to be playing a little defense. Acy brings that attitude. That's not all but how often do we see little guys pushing up at the opposition out at the three pt line. Even Rudy is doing it. Oh, wait, those were fouls?

[White_Chocolate]

Could we just play Curry over Bellinelli? He can't be worse.

 

[Larry89]

Marco still sucks

YESSS!

It's not just Marco's shooting percentages which drive me crazy. He's throwing up shots that would make Kobe Bryant shake his head.

 

[White_Chocolate]

Marco still sucks

He might make us have to put our starters back in way too early.

McLemore has looked fine too. I just don't get it.

 

[VF21]

WHAT?????? Bring Rudy in for WCS? Nice call, Karl.

 

[Larry89]

sit your ass down Marco

 

[Capt. Factorial]

The Collison/Rondo backcourt, obviously.

 

[Glenn]

It took me way too long to get it.

 

[lwc]

Did the Kings have Gay AND Cousins sitting at the same time? No wonder the lead has dwindled.

 

[VF21]

sit your ass down Marco

Marco isn't the one deciding when he'll play.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

WHAT?????? Bring Rudy in for WCS? Nice call, Karl.

Our offense went straight to hell and he probably wanted a few more minutes of rest for Cuz. Not gonna get it now.

 

[kingsboi]

I'm over here sitting and thinking why Trill was just pulled from the game, pretty quick yank

 

[Merdiesel]

Marco must be Karl's God son or something. This is just weird.

I would have sent Marco to the bench before WCS.

We're not allowed to out-size the opponent that much. New rule.

Oops. My bad.

one was a shotclock heave, but the others were shots that didnt need a fade. they were good looks but the fade was a bit unnecessary. a few milliseconds to settle your balance would have been good for marco

This is exactly what went through my head.

Marco forces up three horrible shots in a row.... Rudy immediately gets off the bench. Oh okay, this makes sense. Wait... Karl pulled Cauley-Stein?

 

[SacKings384]

Who would have thought that putting Boog down low would have him playing this level of basketball? Totally unforeseen.

Also, can Karl please reign in Marco? Basically, "If you have to dribble and its not a layup I don't want you to take a shot or you're sitting on the pine."

Looking good overall let's close this one out.

 

[Sluggah]

clear path my ass

 

[Im Still Ballin]

Stern decisions by Karl. Ride the ups and downs. Savvy HOF veteran move.

I don't see that at all. He's dribbling toward the baseline going right then pulls up while fading toward the baseline heading out of bounds? That's an impossible shot. And he did it twice in a row, once going left and once going right. If you make that shot consistently you're Steph Curry. Marco is a good set shooter, he's proven all season long that he's not afraid to take off balance jumpers off the dribble though and that he can't hit a damn thing when he shoots those.

 

[VF21]

...sigh...

 

[Merdiesel]

Make the ****ing call ref!

 

[sdballer]

I'm still shocked that Karl's plan to play fast in Denver isn't working late game. But he is a HOF coach so...
