[Game] Kings v. Houston 14/01/12

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

What is the world coming to when Greene is thought of as an experienced vet?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

More Salmons being Salmons...

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Next time you commit that foul, Cousins, put some more forearm into it...

 

[Nighthawk1]

DMC trying to force up crap now. He needs to just be patient

 

[Fear the Putin]

go inside demarcus...use your gigantic body

 

[xrzn]

Maybe Cousins is afraid of Dalembert?

Exactly what I was thinking

 

[Nighthawk1]

I think Scola and Dally are being more physical with him then he expected and it's getting in his head. He has to prepare for this type of stuff - so far he's handling it maturely but it's effecting his game for sure

 

[Arkitect]

Did someone put something in DMCs drink? He looks asleep out there.

 

[DeMoN]

Isiah Thomas and Greene for starters

 

[Bricklayer]

Can we swap centers for this game? We'd be blowing them out.

Still not over losing Daly.

 

[swisshh]

Cousins is forcing things at this point. He just needs to forget the misses and take the shots that are there, keep pounding the boards and find some gimmes.

This is Tyreke's most guard-like performance of his career. If he is not orchestrating the offense, he is at least within the orchestration. I haven't been able to say that about his play often. He is finding cutters and his fast break decisions have all been good. The shots he is taking are the shots that are there. Nothing is forced.

On that note, the rest of the Kings players are a lot more patient looking on their shots. Far less quick shots. Well, besides Cousins and Salmons. Salmons is still wasting clock and going 1 on 3.

Did someone put something in DMCs drink? He looks asleep out there.

I noticed that from the start of the game, kind of shuffling up court and all. I think all those minutes in the last game wore him down but that's good because now he can try and break through that barrier of only playing 27 minutes a game.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I didn't actually mean, afraid, afraid... more that (at the risk of paying lip service to Bill Worrell) he thinks/knows that Dalembert knows what he wants to do, and it's in his head...

 

[rainmaker]

We are broke, have the lowest payroll in the league, yet are paying Salmons/Cisco a combined 14M. That needs to change ASAP. Should be a fireable offense.

 

[Fireplug]

DeMarcus completely ineffective this half, looks like he is on quaaludes out there. Great bench shot of energy but they started to tire at end of 2nd quarter. Fun half to watch though except for the salmon smell-o-vision.

 

[Boogie-havoc]

Guys anyone got "League pass" and can rewind back?

Check both Tyrekes and Ciscos back to back three pointers around 1-2 minutes in the 1st quarter, and the Tyreke layup when the score was made 32-26 at the start of the 2nd quarter.

Crystal clear no brainer can't get any more obvious then that assists by Isiah Thomas, who got no credit for them whatsoever(atleast Cisco was given the Reke layup assist, but on both 3 pointers no one got an assist at all)

 

[PurpleHaze]

These first few weeks of NBA season have been awfully hard to watch an entire game - virtually entire league disjointed. Poor execution, players out of cink, players out of shape, fans mostly bored. Lots more entertaining college basketball games of late and tomorrows NFL playoffs a saving grace. Maybe after the SuperBowl Kings and league as a whole will finally get rolling. GO NINERS!

 

[Spok22]

If not for salmons, we would be blowing out this team. He needs to be traded or benched imo.

 

[Arkitect]

To be fair, I think DMC's stuggles have had a bigger impact than Salmons.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Cuz looks tired to me. Just totally sluggish all night.

Evans has been great, but he isn't really getting any help from the starters. Thankfully the bench is doing their job tonight on BOTH ends. The defense we played at the start of the second was really good, then we got easy buckets on the other end.

 

[Mad D]

Stat keeper gave him the assist now. Not showing up on Yahoo's box score though.

 

[annihilator_33]

salmons....please stop

 

[Mad D]

The Stinky Fish has gone rotten.

 

[nebs]

Salmons gonna Salmon. smh

 

[Boogie-havoc]

Yea I just noticed that too.

They gave him both the 3 pointers, but still gave the Reke layup assist to Cisco instead of him.

Well, atleast they're correcting themselfs!

 

[cuad]

Ugly ugly ugly.

 

[Nighthawk1]

If you do anything for the rest of the season GP, trade Salmons back away please

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

So John Salmons is really good at shooting.

Like, the act of shooting. Not including the part where it goes in.

 

[Boogie-havoc]

Man I hate these Reke possessions.

Absolutely hate them.

 

[cuad]

Why the hell doesn't this stupid team support Fredette? He's not even getting high fives on the free throw line.
