WCS.. impact

 

[VF21]

Awful lot of holding going on out there by the Rockets.

 

[VF21]

Wow. Now that's what Buddy needs to do!

 

[VF21]

Garrett Temple doing a very good job of defending against Chris Paul. I'm surprised Paul hasn't dropped to the floor and flopped like a fish yet. I'm sure that will come...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Am I to assume Z-Bo is sitting tonight?

 

[lwc]

Wow. Now that's what Buddy needs to do!

I think Buddy has solidified that he is the sixth man going forward

 

[John Galt]

That's an honorable role. One of the least favorite Clippers for me to see on the floor was always Jamal Crawford. Those guys are important.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

The last few minutes have been some contradictory evidence with regards to the adage that "good defense beats good offense".

 

[Kingsfan23]

As much as I didn’t want it to be so...

 

[VF21]

I'd like to see the Kings keep up this pace. They're considerably younger than the Rockets.

 

[allrightythen]

This goes without saying, but I really really dislike Chris Paul.

 

[VF21]

DeFox learned a valuable lesson right there...and he knew it. Paul got him up in the air and leaned into him. Luckily, CP wasn't behind the line.

 

[VF21]

Ditto.

Irritating Grant comment #325 - And the Kings have an opportunity for _____________________________________.

Anybody need help filling in the blank?

 

[VF21]

I want someone to smush Chris Paul like an overripe grape. It would bring me immense pleasure. And yes, I'm well aware that goes against my self-imposed rule about not ever wishing ill on an opponent. CP just pushes the same button that Steve Nash used to push. With Nash, it was his disgusting habit of licking his fingers before every free throw. With CP? I think it starts with him breathing...

The only thing Grant loves more than 2-for-1s are triple-doubles and asking Jerry about the good old days

 

[VF21]

Half -time random question (a new feature of the game thread):

So what one Kings jersey do you really wish you hadn't purchased and why?

I'll go first. For me, it's Jimmer Fredette. I couldn't even find a Jimmer fan to give it to ... for free ... no sticks attached.

Well, and dogging on Demarcus Cousins.

It's been a couple years since I listened to Grant's call (I mute him) but I'm going to guess "2 for 1"

I'd totally take that from you if I was out there.

You want it, it's yours. PM me your mailing address.

Oops. It should have said "strings"...

 

[Larry89]

They're going to give Harden THAT call? wow

 

[VF21]

Ah, the joys of the 3rd quarter.

 

[VF21]

I see Jack Cooley on the bench. I'd love to see him get a little bit of playing time. He's getting paid the big bucks for being with the home team; might as well give him some love. It is Valentine's Day, after all!

 

[Suicide King]

Have only been able to just tune in. Just from the last few minutes I imagine Paul and Harden don't like getting Bogdan on them.

 

[Suicide King]

Shot clock should not have been reset there. Bogie never had control.

 

[Larry89]

At least this game is competitive

 

[Mrkipro]

Good Moorning, i join second half...Just little stronger defense we win this

 

[VF21]

I'm seeing lots of hustle and effort. Sampson really makes me smile.
