[Game] Kings v. Bucks - 2/1/16 - 7 PT, 10 ET

[Glenn]

I love Boogie but he has kind of hurt us during this losing streak. And we had the big run vs. Memphis without him for part of the time. No excuses tonight.

So you think we'll do better without Boogie?

 

[KingsFanatic]

A bit off topic, but responding to the George Karl comments in the Memphis game thread.
I too am getting tired of Karl. With that said I completely respect his past. I think everyone here agrees that he "was" a fantastic coach. You don't win as many games as he won without being a fantastic coach. That's a no-brainer, but I don't think he has the decision making skills that he use to have. He's definitely lost his edge as a coach and it's showing.

Ths just means Dc and Marco will take 60 shots while giving up 60 points

 

[jcwkings]

I feel like this is a must win if they want to turn this around. A loss tonight completely eliminates the five game win streak. Portland and Utah have been taking care of business and New Orleans is right breathing down our necks. Something tells me tonight will get really bad though.

 

[Kings_of_California]

Are we going to have a Curry sighting?

My guess is no, just a heavier dose of Collison and Marco.

If Brickinelli doesn't play, then Anderson will probably get the minutes.

So you think we'll do better without Boogie?

Depends which Boogie would have shown up. But very likely not.

 

[chief bromden]

Kings 1.5 point favorites, Vegas knows something I dont. Bucks shoot poorly and don't score much, so maybe the Kings have a chance tonight. I like Middleton, he has a good chance at a nice game tonight.

 

[PurpleHaze]

Rudy needs big game (36 last game in Milwaukee), Omri need to score a ton. Who else? Who knows... I love watching Giannis Antetokounmpo one of my top 5 NBA fave players to watch not on Sac roster. Hopefully the Greek doesn't get too freaky tonight against Kings.

 

[SLAB]

Kufos has got to be close to the most offensively inept player in the league.

 

[Glenn]

Depends which Boogie would have shown up. But very likely not.

You may very well be right. I think the fact that we seem almost totally dependent on whether Boogie has a great game. We have other players who can score. We have other players who can play defense. Vlade upgraded this team by quite a bit yet it all still falls on Boogie. We just got beaten by the Pelicans who were missing a lot of very good players. Why is that? Something is very, very wrong and I don't think the problem is Boogie. It's more than likely Karl and this focus on Boogie I think is unfair.

 

[Kings_of_California]

Willie with the...the hook shot??

I will definitely take it!

 

[Sluggah]

ugh. can't believe Ben is out. was hoping he'd be tonight's x-factor. now I have to pin my hopes on... hmm... <crickets>

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

SMH

 

[chief bromden]

Rudy looks sharp tonight!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Is this Milwaukee's primary road uni this year? The font looks a bit old-school but I like it and the whole thing is pretty tight.

 

[chief bromden]

Rondo's effort on D makes Bibby's not so shabby

 

[PurpleHaze]

Was that Bucks hoop - and one? Grant didn't make any call, just went to commercial break at the time-out.

 

[Kings_of_California]

I think the Bucks new uni is amazing.

Major upgrade.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

McLemore's pocket square game is on fleek.

 

[PurpleHaze]

I think the Bucks new uni is amazing.

Major upgrade.

Agree. Enough of the foolish uni looks that the league as adopted last few years.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Wow - two bad calls in a row, first nothing on the goaltend and then a BS call to MCW jumping into Acy on the ground.

 

[Sluggah]

never seen Ben in a suit. dude is on fleek.

 

[Sluggah]

McLemore's pocket square game is on fleek.

woah. weird.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

never seen Ben in a suit. dude is on fleek.

That's because he's never missed a game before.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

woah. weird.

Jinx!

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Oh great, here comes Master P.

 

[dude12]

Small ball lineup is poop.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Seven turnovers in the first quarter; if I didn't know better, I'd swear that was the gameplan.

 

[Glenn]

Small ball lineup is poop.

It's Boogie's fault for being injured. That's sarcasm. It's Karl's fault for being a jackass.

 

[dude12]

DC has a rough start to the game....results in a Buck run.
