[Game] Kings v. Houston 14/01/12

John Salmons has 27 minutes played in this game. That's about 10 minutes too much. With Donte and Cisco both producing, there is no reason that Salmons should be getting that many minutes.
 
Lol also, has anyone mentioned that the Rockets announcer's continue to refer to Isaiah Thomas as the former Piston's son? They also said tyreke was 6'5'' and 6'6''.
 
If Clyde Drexler doesn't stop calling Isaiah Thomas Zeke's son, I'm going to go to Houston and push him in front of a speeding bus.

EDIT - Ninja'd
 
Did Salmons just foul? :rolleyes:


Hopefully, and I am really searching for a glimmer of hope here, Salmons constant displays of incompetence will lead to him being amnistied. I don't even want him on the team.

That ain't gonna happen. Salmons contract is too long and big for a team to do a salary dump. The only way we are getting rid of him is to amnesty. We basically traded a good consistent player and 3 spots up in the draft....for nothing. It has to be the worst trade in Sacramento history.

Not even close.
 
Our starting lineup sans Tyreke killed us!

DMC - yes but he looks tired.. not to mention daly sort of got in his head
Jimmer - no why? how can he be effective if he doesnt get the touches convinced he really is ignored.
Hickson - yes bone headed moves.. but athletic enough to go for a rebound.
SALMONS - oh hell yeah! the hell is this guy still starting???

we really need hayes back
 
Reke has been awesome since Smart took over.

But Dalembert did his homework pretty well tonight and Cousins gave in too early to frustration.

Good thing our bench played well. This could have been close if Dally, who the Houstons announcers now call "the Bear"...LOL, did not eat mana from heaven. LOL

I think Greene should earn the starting spot over Salmons. The fish has been lazy again. Oh my..
 
Can we please get Marcus Thornton back now? =) three games in a row is quite enough for a hamstring injury or whatever it was. We need his 20 PPG badly, especially when Cousins plays like he did tonight. Boy it's great seeing Isaiah and Donte come in and give us a nice spark off the bench, those two guys need to be the first guys off the bench.

Absolutely. I found myself yelling at my tv every time Salmons touched the ball to pass. He took one decent shot off a pass, which of course clanked off the rim. The rest of his shots were forced garbage. Even if DMC wasn't struggling, Salmons was singlehandedly capable of killing any team momentum.

However, there were flashes of brilliance from the team throughout the game. Half-court game looked much better and more fluid. Sucks to lose a winnable game, but there are still some positive takeaways.
 
I remember when Salmons hit his one shot of the game and I immediately thought "OMG he's gonna keep shooting now." Then I realized that was happening anyways. It's gotten to the point where whenever Salmons goes to shoot I say "Oh no" in that same manner you would say Oh no! when a child tries to get on a playground merry-go-round that's spinning at full speed.
