[Game] Kings @ Pistons 1-19 4PT/7ET

[Kings_of_California]

Please can we just play Bagley and Giles more? They've given us a boost in limited minutes.

Bjelica has provided literally nothing.

 

[Ozymandias]

foox with the and -1 going right..

 

[Joshoua]

Blake is arguing about the same stuff that he was earlier. as much as people wanna make it about the players, like grant doees, the refs dont get these calls right consistently so this is how it goes..

Stop it these guys complain on everything they’ll smack a player in the face and complain the call.

Blake Griffin is the biggest ***hole in the NBA...

Change My Mind.

Hopefully we can get it back to within 6 at the half.

Bullseye!

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Damn only down at 6 at the half. I’m at work but sounds like we should be thankful lol.

 

[Ozymandias]

Refs make mistakes all the GD time and aren’t held (publicly at least) accountable. I completely understand why players can get so pissed off at them.

When blake was yelling at her before he was saying marvin was putting his arms under his, wrapping his torso... that is exactly what happened on the play before the tech...

 

[Ozymandias]

Grant talking about Blake just now was SUPER lame.... "do you think he talks in his sleep" what is this guy some sort of bully? call the game..


There was also a moment where he said "blake complains after every call" and on that particular play Blake just stood there with an exasperated look and didnt say a word..

 

[Ozymandias]

Blake had Marvins hand pinned as he fell drawing the foul. He is weak sauce.

Marvins hand was tucked under his shoulder.....

So the inconsistency of the calls is absolved and the players are completely at fault?

 

[Kings_of_California]

Since I'm not able to watch games unless they're on National TV and con only follow gamecast, can someone tell me how Marvin is playing defensively?

Also, what about Giles?

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Hopefully we don’t freeze Buddy out of the offense after his hot start. We do that sometimes.

Marvin and Giles issues have been mostly turnover related. Marvin especially in his first shift looked sharp defensively and had a bunch of contests.

Marvin also had a sweet steal that resulted in him getting a dunk as the trailer on the break.

It's a bit of an all-hands-on-deck situation with Blake Griffin who needs to be double-teamed and Willie picked up 2 early fouls (one of which was caused by Bjelly's slow footedness)

IF you count defensive rebounding as part of defense, which i do. They haven't been that great at this aspecrt, particularly allowing Jon Leuer too many o-boards.

I know, I just hate when the offensive player uses their arm to hold the defenders in place as they fall.

It not only can injure the defender but I see it almost as another form of flopping.

I am sure , as you mentioned earlier, Marvin was probably wrapping the torso.

I just wanna say this now... u guys think this is bad.. wait til the kings make the playoffs...

what goes on with these particular fouls. I like to call them "chicken wing" fouls, and there's many varieties, they let that stuff fly most of the time, more than the regular season.

What is this board’s opinion of Napier? I personally can’t stand how his brain is wired for negativity. I think he’s professional, brings the enthusiasm well, etc. but it really bums me out how he thrives on the negative. Examples: just tearing into guys during the games, if we get a technical he’ll bring up that one point over and over and over, continuing to remind us that we won’t win if we’re not up to start the 4th..

I just feel it’s unnecessary. I watch a lot of Portland games as well, and in my opinion they bring the same level of talent/professionalism while being very enjoyable energies to beam into the home.

Anywho, I really am interested.. what’s the boards opinion?

P.S. I LOVE Christie. He’s positive, teaches us during the games, good voice, etc.

I am not at all surprised by the foul, just don't like them. Been watching ball way too long for that.

It sucks. The ideal angle to ref basketball would be in the air. Like an eye in the sky slightly above the action. being on ground level the feild of depth gets obscured. and i mean, were talking about the best basketball players around, so they have a feel for where the refs are and how to obscure the view... and this is what we get.

I think that what Grant just did was unprofessional to the point where the halftime crew was forced to double-down on his callous views. Blakes got 20 in the first half and all your talking about is what happens after the plays... call the action please, not the downtime..

 

[Swipa]

Marvin MUST quicken his decision making/passing ability

 

[SLAB]

Bagley starting the 3rd. It has begun

 

[HndsmCelt]

Bagley working Blake. That's how you do it Macon play defense and his game goes to crap.

 

[SLAB]

I hate Grant’s incessant whining about players more than I hate Blake Griffin’s nonsense.

 

[DesertFox]

Blake is staring down the ref like some fake tough guy, it gets old quick.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Grant isn't wrong though. I mean wtf, guy is getting all the calls but acting like Philip Rivers in the Pats game last week.

 

[HndsmCelt]

I am not advocating dirty play, however this would be a really good time for Bagley to put an elbow into Blake's rib cage.

 

[Ozymandias]

Bagley starting the 3rd. It has begun

I really hope so...

 

[SacTownKid]

I hate Grant’s incessant whining about players more than I hate Blake Griffin’s nonsense.

Somebody should rant on Grant for ranting and create of never ending cycle of perpetual ranting.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Have a bad feeling we are looking at an 0-6 road trip :-(

 

[dude12]

I concur that Blake Griffin is the biggest a** in the nba

What is with the negative waves man?
