I'm already scared Rudy will leave as a free agent for long term deal with winning team

Seriously? You really are a pessimist, aren't you? I'm guessing for you the glass is not only half-empty, it has a chip on it and you're gonna cut your lip and die of blood poisoning.

Dude, just enjoy the moments and be thankful we have them.

 

[t-rex]

the guards failed. not the frontcourt

Plumlee has a huge night. The team failed.

 

[swisshh]

Bad games from Cuz, JT and Ben. All of Boogie's bad habits were back in this game.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

when your PG takes 20 shots and has 2 assists in 41 minutes, he probably should not be your PG

 

[theclash4u5]

Yeah...he goes to cover the PGs who blow past our guys...what do you want him to do?

He was straight up out hustled and out played tonight, regardless of our guards "defense".

 

[flamecrow]

smh kings. too much punishment.

 

[PurpleHaze]

One thing I know for sure Kings fans. Rudy Gay is definitely part of the solution but IT is definitely not. The little Hustling Huskie would have to average 45 pts and 10 assists at a minimum to be worth it as starting PG in NBA. He's simply way to much a liability on defensive end.

Under what circumstance would that be a bad thing?

 

[VF21]

Uh oh. Rudy made nice with the opponents.

 

[Entity]

Bad games from Cuz, JT and Ben. All of Boogie's bad habits were back in this game.

15pts 16reb 5 ast 5 steal only 2 fouls. For cuz. He was doubled all night. I think he had a heck of a game.

 

[Kingster]

Cousins was pathetically bad. You can't have your best player perform like that and win. It was amazing they didn't get blown out by 20+ points.

PS Thornton had whatever Patterson had. He's going to shoot 15% from the field until he gets traded...

 

[rainmaker]

I'm glad that this Gay DWill Cousins front court is failing. That means I was right (as usual).

Actually, makes you wrong(as usual).

No one who understands this game, or even life in general would make any declarations off the first game all three have played together.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Just curious...Have you ever had anything positive to say about a player on the Kings?

I can't help but notice that this question went unanswered.

 

[Gliesian]

Thank you Gay n Gray for making this game bearable to watch! what a great showing by those two.

Well, he's in Kings uni for rest of this year and all of next season as well - unless traded.

 

[The_Jamal]

when your PG takes 20 shots and has 2 assists in 41 minutes, he probably should not be your PG

Is anything not IT's fault?

Sure, he was a big part of the defensive problem. But so were MT and Ben. And Cuz getting crushed by Plumlee, on both ends time and time again. And 2-13 shooting from Ben and Thornton. And JT possibly having one of his worst nights as a pro

It's beyond annoying when you continue to harp on one aspect of why we lost as if it were the only reason

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That's only half true: he's not compelled to accept his player option. He's unlikely to turn down nineteen million but, if he decides he'd rather win, and/or have a long-term guaranteed deal, he can.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

In his defense, he's being totally assaulted out there with no calls. I do agree he should suck it up, shut up and play but I can kinda understand his frustration. Some of the officials act as though he's immune to being fouled.

He initiates a ton of contact, which is great most of the time. However, you won't get every call when you're forcing the contact

 

[HndsmCelt]

Or perhaps he ought to be your BACK UP... but it is not like we have a plan B for the point

That's a bit of an overstatement. He had 16 rbds and 5 steals to go with the normal double digit scoring. 2 fouls. You want too much or just enjoy being an antagonist. Or both, of course.

 

[KingsCitizen]

I caught up the game in 4th quarter.
Surprised to see Dragic and Bledsoe having close to 30pts each.
I don't know IT got abused with his size what?

I really fell IT should lead the bench and keep being a really solid 6th man.
Than being a liability in the starting lineup.

If you look up the definition of "empty stats" you'd see this stat line. Dude sucked tonight. Same goes for IT's 29 points. Doesn't matter how much you score if you just give it all back on the other end.

 

[JLoss22]

I miss Toney Douglas....

Seriously now, this is very much like the pot calling the kettle black. You cannot tolerate a criticism of IT without shooting back a reply. You have your own tunnel vision and at times, I think you might be better off as a Kings announcer.

Really? Who is going to want him? We're stuck big time

 

[JLoss22]

The Suns have a star in Bledsoe though. That dude is unreal.

 

[dude12]

Cousins had a tough shooting night but had 16 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 steals.....their guards had 57 points on 21-30 shooting. Plumlee had 12 points. Saying Cousins got out hustled would be wrong.

Malone complaining about ast and backcourt defense

Yes, I'm totally biased aren't I Glenn?I call it as I see it. Cousins, Ben, MT, and JT were at just as much fault as IT tonight. And I was responding how that particular post likes to make everything IT's fault

How about you stop trying to nit-pick my opinions and worry about yourself eh?
