[Game] Kings @ Suns - 12/17/12

Blablabla players' faults, not coach.

At some point FO has to do something, whether it's making a trade or firing the coach.
 
Tonight and against this team if Jimmer plays 3 full quarters we win. Not every night, but tonight it would have happened.
 
Somebody posted something the other day.....something like "it's so bad it's funny"....we're pretty much at that point, right? I mean, does anybody really still care when we lose?
 
Did anybody rewind and watch Jimmer's charge at the end of the game? I only got to see it once.

Defender was a tiny bit late ... a very 50/50 call. Still, I'm left wondering why Smart takes Jimmer out of the game, only to put him back in and then run the offense entirely through him.

Once we start falling behind and the hopes of a comeback are unrealistic I pretty much just pray for a blow out in hops that Keith Smart will be fired. But prior to that I of course hope that we win.

Did you guys see Jimmer for most of that second half? Overall he had a decent game, but he wasn't very effective during his second stretch.

Umm....he scored 10 points in the 4th quarter. With a bs charge call that would have been an and one.

That is what Smart has to understand. When a guy is that hot, LEAVE HIM IN, lol

Tonight's game wasn't about Jimmer - although he's showing that if IT goes out and has a big game, he can go do the same. Tonight was about big Cuz and his no show. What happened to him tonight? He reminded me of Eric Dampier. I don't feel like he didn't want to win, he just looked like the weaker center. Cuz is way better than guys like Gortat and Kaman. How come these guys have been owning him lately?

Because he's really not "way" better than those guys. Yes, he's more talented but they know how to play the game of basketball. He doesn't.

This. Those guys are better . Cousins has potential to be but he isn't yet.

Just watched the game. What a disaster. I don't know if it's been posted yet, but Reke's bro tweeted that he had tendonitis on his knee. Sucks.

The FO needs to fire themselves for putting this mismatched all guard team together.

Yes he is.. He's just bummed because he's playing for such a bad team. Happens to a lot of good players that play for terrible teams.

Ok, I'll bite. What makes you say that he is better? Give me any statistics that you can come up with that shows that Cousins is right now, better than those players.

It's not about the stats at all. If you watch the games you know what he's capable of. He's a better ball player (by a lot imo), but mentally, and emotionally Cousins probably ranks last in the league and that screws up his consistency.

Take a look at the last half of last season if you want to compare stats. He was actually consistently happy and playing well. (I had season tickets and saw him on the bench smiling most of the time and cheering the team on which is stuff you don't see on TV) If Cousins was happy and the team was winning then he would be a better center stat wise. Right now he's better but he's not playing to his ability. If you want to throw the whole mental thing in there then he probably wouldn't be better.
 
Last seasons Cousins was better than those players, this seasons version....Not so much.

It's mental. You don't go from last years domination, smiling when on the bench and great stats to this years stats, and a constant scowl when on the bench unless something is wrong in his head (only been to a few home games this year so I am not sure if this is every game that he's moping on the bench). We all know he's an emotional player, and losing like this probably affects him more than any other player we have.
 
Well, losing and the general state of the team, which is worse than ****.


It just kind of sucks that he dogs it so much, dude needs to step up. Cousins plays like crap because we lose, and we lose because Cousins plays like crap.
