[Game] Kings @ Portland - 10/20/13

IT keeps getting wide open shots tho... Not like hes chucking them up with a defender in front of him..

 

[sactownfan]

Ppat can shoot though

lol! YES he can... just not rebound... hes leading to way to many second chance points for POR.

 

[The_Jamal]

+/- between Starters sans Patterson and bench is absolutely nuts.

IT shooting numbers don't look great, but he was the reason we were able to create offense in the 3rd. Attacking the paint and getting our shooters good shots.

agreed... all his shots are pretty good ones so far

 

[spudfan]

yea Isaiah. Keep shooting. Is this guy trying to get the NBA record for shots per minute?

That last three was pretty bad. Gave the Blazers a chance at one more shot when we could have had it.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

McLemore looking very good

i want to see Vasquez/Ben/Luc/PPat/Cuz on opening night

 

[dude12]

PPat 21 and 6 at the end of 3rd......JT 0 points and 4 fouls......Hayes 8 rebs

 

[Henkel]

Outlaw with the open lane so he throws a bad pass to Isiah?

 

[cuad]

BMac and JFred are takin' ova.

 

[Entity]

McLemores biggest attribute is that he seems humble. Playing within the system. Letting the game come to him. Not trying to make the all star team as a rookie in preseason

 

[The_Jamal]

McLemore is playing awesome. He's definetly got that shooter mentality where a few misses doesn't discourage him

 

[jaysoonii]

McLemore has to be one of the fastest players in the league..

 

[The_Jamal]

BMac and JFred are takin' ova.

Jimmer hasn't done anything

 

[HereWeBoogie]

i Love McLemores game. always moving without the ball, running the floor, active on D, athletic dunks, and BEAUTIFUL jumpshot

 

[Sluggah]

really surprised we're hanging in there without Cousins

 

[Henkel]

Jimmer has one assist while McLemore is closing in on 20.

 

[jcwkings]

Ben looking like a gazelle out there, movement is so graceful, making a case to start right away tbh with how Thornton is looking. Playing within himself, knows his strengths and weaknesses.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Outlaw just got hookshotted over. poor guy

 

[KingMilz]

Ok Ben Mac is a stud no doubt man this guy craps all over our SG's 18points with 8/13 shooting and playing good defense against Portland, he's flying in for dunks 1-2 bounce jumpers and triples dude is a BEAST.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

the midrange jumper off the dribble by Ben was nice.

 

[Entity]

Ok I'm calling it right now. I was hesitant at first. But given thortons demeanor on the court and his play thus far compared to mclemores. I call for Ben to start. I mean if it is indeed a competition for starting positions. Malone can't convince me that Marcus has outplayed Ben in any way

 

[HereWeBoogie]

i was high on Ben when we drafted him, but he is WAY more NBA ready than i had expected

 

[Entity]

To extend that I am not sure Marcus could start over jimmer at this point. Geeez tip in by Ben he is everywhere

 

[HereWeBoogie]

considering all the injured rookies (McCollum, Noel, Trey Burke, etc) is it really that much of a reach to think Ben could get ROY?

 

[KingMilz]

We have found ourselves a legit future number #2 option I can't describe how impressed I'am by him

 

[jaysoonii]

I think Ben > Jimmer > Salmons > MT

 

[Chicken Chaser]

ben mclemore is sinking every shot omg. nba ready! O_O

 

[cuad]

My gosh, that shot was cold blooded.

 

[miltonap]

McLemore playin like just like his daddy taught him. Me

 

[Entity]

Ok that's it. If Ben isn't the starter then I will brand this coaching staff the same as the previous staff.
