[Game] Kings @ Suns (Pre-Season) Game Discussion

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

gotta clear driving lanes for those guards after all

The Modern NBA. It's FAN-tastic!

 

[Sac.Kings]

This unit looks horrible tonight. Horrible. Collison is playing like crap, Casspi is playing badly, and we can't pass the ball

 

[nickmcclure]

That's EXACTLY what Casspi needed, high percentage shot

 

[Henkel]

Casspi with another selfish drive on the fast break.

 

[lawlman91]

highlights. darn.

 

[nickmcclure]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN hopefully that lights a fire under DMC and he gets some revenge (and I'm not talking about 23.9 ft away from the hoop)

 

[Sac.Kings]

Casspi thinks he's Steve Nash with the ball. Cousins just got DUNKED on hard

 

[nickmcclure]

Also, where's Rudy? He killed it in the 1st

 

[jcwkings]

I wonder what the turnover rate is on Casspi drives? Dude seems to lose the ball half the time whenever he's driving. Cuz just got dunked on for the first time I can remember lol.

 

[King Baller]

I just hope all this DMC 3 point shooting stops when the season starts. It was quite the disgusting sight to see the leagues most dominant big man hanging out by the 3pt line...

Magic Cousins

 

[Entity]

You show me guy that hasn't been dunked on and I will show you a guy that doesn't play defense

 

[Sac.Kings]

Lol, nice move Cuz

 

[lawlman91]

AAAAAAH thats what happens when you dunk on cuz

 

[twslam07]

Casspi is looking god awful.

 

[Entity]

I guess if we have any front court injury we can look forward to lineups like this

 

[sdballer]

Yeah we need one more big that isn't acy

BREAKING NEWS: SACRAMENTO KINGS DEFEND A 3 POINT SHOT!
Phoenix, AZ
In the waning seconds of a Preseason game tonight (OCT 7th) the Sacramento Kings successfully defended a 3-point shot attempt by an opponent. As the buzzer sounded, Markeiff Morris' 3 attempt clanged off the rim. This isn't a rare occurance except for the fact that, according to sources, one Rudy Gay actually had his hands up and likely was the deciding factor in the miss.

[kingsboi]

And you're aware Karl and Cuz have both mentioned he'd be shooting 3's?

This is news to me...

 

[206Fan]

For those not watching, our starting lineup went against theirs and we had like a 25-12 lead. We put in our bench...Collison, Belinelli, Casspi, Butler, and. Moreland. Phoenix finished with like a 15-5 run... Collison and Casspi have been playing absolutely dreadful. No excuse for it...9 TOs between both of them.

There is an excuse for it. It's called "preseason".

I came on here to read a little bit about how the game was going before checking the score. Based on reading the comments, i thought the score was going to be 60-40 or something like that in favor of the Suns, so I was surprised to find the Kings up one at the half when I finally checked the NBA.com

 

[jcwkings]

Casspi and Collison 9 turnovers in 10 minutes between them, yikes. Other than than mostly positives, that second unit needed Koufos out there. WCS and Boogie look salivating together on defense. Also im pretty convinced the Cuz on the perimter is simply an experimental pre season thing. Notice after he got dunked on he pretty much exclusively worked on the block. I think Karl just wants Cuz to get some reps playing out there so he can do it in spots when the game matters. Karl isn't an idiot he knows where Cuz's bread is buttered.

This is Casspi though...inconsistent as heck and makes poor descions. He's like JWill...a lot of oooos from the crowd, but even more what the hells

 

[celtics33]

Terrific first 7 minutes, solid lineup, great pace and good defensive rotations. RR 6 ast, Rudy very sharp and Boogie following the script. Despite of how weird it might look to see him taking those 3's, if George Karl needs to test multiple solutions, it's now, in pre-season, the time to run experiments.
Collison out of sync, Belinelli won't be every night the one seen in Portland nor the one seen so far today.
Kings' first unit looks well packed...something to review for what concerns the bench.
You guys are going to have a very entertaining year in Sacramento.

Not so for Casspi. He played overseas for his home country. He shouldn't be this rusty. Collison I can understand more.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

i really like Willie in the starting lineup. Playing with Cuz and Rondo will make him better. The Kings don't need any more offense in the starting lineup, Koufos would be better with the bench unit

So is it safe to assume we just might see you around here (meaning KF and not Sacramento ) on occasion?

What a circus shot by Rudy!
