The next to the last home game of the season. Look for the fans to rock STA, led by Crown Downtown. We'll see the wave, we'll hear chants of SAC-RA-MEN-TO, we'll see whatever signs the fans have been able to get past security and hopefully we'll see a good game.

I wish I could be there.

GO KINGS!!!
 
Must contain General Greivis.

Kings have better talent, Hornets are better coached. After our players speaking out against Smart, including loveable IT, I wonder if the rotations will adjust or if Smart just decides to do his own thing, as usual.

Should be interesting!

No matter how many times I watch these second quarter lineups they always feel so awkward to me. Figure I would be used to them now. I think our starters have some decent chemistry now, but this second unit just fights each other.
 
I am not looking at box scores here, but believe it is cause Tony has been getting about 10 of the minutes IT was getting before. It REALLY bothered me when it was happening to the other guys on the team earlier in the season, with all that let everyone play crap... and seeing it again now makes me :mad: That problem hadn't been as bad for awhile now but seems to be coming back again.

im not being a jerk, all the it haters always say hes a bad player when the teams losing but they never say anything when he has great games, which is often. it is a great player and is a starting pg in this league, we just do not have the right pieces to fit around him. we have 3 ball dominate guards playing at once so of course hes going to have bad games.

this grant tribute is good!

You can literally make this statement about, IT, Reke, or Cuz (well not that he's a PG) but you get what I mean. This team is built so poorly, choices are gonna have to be made. I said this before and I'll say it again, usually if we win a game, 2 of our 3 best players usually have good to great games.
 
Fiest Q great. Nothing like team shooting for a high percentage. I' going off now to watch
Stewart and Colbert. Will be back later. Keep good care of game for me.

a win is a win is a win. Go Kings.

You are being a jerk. You ask a question in regards to some perceived slight against a player you like. Completely disregarding that their had been an entire ONE post in the thread before yours that had been posted after the game started. Continuing to harp on a rather non existent issue instead of contributing something worth discussing is one of the reasons these threads have slowed down significantly this season.

If you want to bring up the other topics you mention, such as our team not having the right pieces, and the issue with ball dominate guards you will receive a much more favorable reception as those would be points that can be discussed. Those kind of topics can and are discussed often. "Where are all teh hates now" is nothing more than an empty post that reflects poorly on you.

when you throw every chucker you've got on the court, it's a problem. when you give some burn to a quality defensively-minded guard, it's a positive step. jimmer rarely cracks the rotation these days in favor of douglas. and if douglas eats into thomas' minutes, too, so be it. defense is a necessity, and both jimmer and thomas are weak links...

Agreed. I still maintain that IT would be best as a Bobby Jackson come-off-the-bench sparkplug. It garnered Bobby a sixth-man-of-the-year award and I honestly believe IT could play a similar role if we fix the starting PG problem.

indeed. we have been playing better when it happens, it just annoys me so much when coaches split minutes between players this way. In my mind I can clearly see who the better player is, and I think they should get the majority of the minutes. The wishy-washy style of giving players wacky minutes upsets me.
