Getting those rebound stats up go Willie!

 

[dude12]

WCS is a rebounder

Willie padding his rebound stat

Nice sequences by Willie

 

[kingsboi]

Ron was an absolute force his first year here on the Kings much respect

Always have a soft spot for Ron in my heart

 

[jcwkings]

If Ben is out for some games I wouldnt mind Malachi getting a look off the bench.

 

[PurpleHaze]

Mostly it involves playing defense, playing with effort, hitting open shots and taking care of the ball. It's not rocket surgery.

Exactly. And defense travel in the NBA. The teams with it have excellent road records no matter what... like those road warrior Spurs.

 

[Npliam]

There sure was a lot of bitching and moaning around halftime.

 

[sactownfan]

WCS padding his rebs haha in garbage time. Great hustle solid player right there!! Really going places

 

[funkykingston]

Now I understand. WCS only rebounds when he can get a basket out of it.

 

[kingsboi]

Willie padding his rebound stat

You beat me to it

 

[SLAB]

Hahahaha, DMC blowing a kiss to Shaw.

 

[Larry89]

Always have a soft spot for Ron in my heart

probably the best defender in kings history maybe 1a 1b with doug

 

[funkykingston]

There sure was a lot of bitching and moaning around halftime.

Deservedly so if you watched that garbage 2nd quarter.

 

[SLAB]

There sure was a lot of bitching and moaning around halftime.

They win 2 more, I take back every negative thing I've said over the past week.

 

[Tetsujin]

When your in-laws leave after Thanksgiving.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I've said this before, and by god, I'll say it again: I don't care if it's playoffs, regular season, preseason, summer league, rec league, YMCA league, 3-on-3, HORSE, hopscotch, checkers, T-ball, dominoes, go fish or a sack race, I want the Kings to beat the gd lakers. Beat 'em down, beat 'em down, beat 'em down!

When you can't enjoy a win, maybe it's time to take a break

 

[kingsboi]

probably the best defender in kings history maybe 1a 1b with doug

having a player that consistently hanged his hat on defense every game makes it that much more enjoyable to watch

Temple is quietly near 40 percent on threes for the year. 3 and D, really no reason why he shouldnt start from here on out.

Joerger was talking about how bringing him off the bench makes them more versatile. I agree with you though, I think we are all sick and tired of these weak SG costing us games.

 

[CyKings]

seeing Derek Fisher and James Worthy whine post game makes my night

 

[Larry89]

I didn't know tonight was comic con night, I would've gone to the game and worn my sith lord costume to the game with a phil jackson mask on and a kings jersey underneath

 

[funkykingston]

If Ben is out for some games I wouldnt mind Malachi getting a look off the bench.

If Ben and Rudy miss games (and honestly even if they don't) I'd like to see:

Collison
Temple
Casspi
Tolliver
Cousins

and at this point I'd be fine with Richardson getting a look and stealing minutes from Afflalo and possibly Barnes.

 

[dude12]

Winning > Losing

Beating the Lakers > anything

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Maybe take a nice long vacation to rest up. A several month sabbatical or something.

You know, if we trade Gay, and suddenly become good, that guy's probably going to have to retire. You can look at Memphis and say, "Well, they were good with me, we were just never all healthy at the same time." With Toronto, you could argue that they were poised to make a push. If we become a playoff team, he's going to have no choice but to be like, "Damn... I guess it is me!"

 

[alonshin]

Amazing how Afflalo managed to get a+/- of -23, in a game which Temple had a +41, and Cousins & Casspi +30.
Anyway, a good win. we need a few more of those right now.

Let Rudy come off the bench for "versatility"

 

[VF21]

It's official. This current group of Lakers has not only revived my hatred of all things Lakers, they have hit a level of smug entitlement I haven't seen in years. The swagger, the high-horsery, the general "we're so good we don't have to try" attitude is so stereotypically LA that I most likely would have been kicked out of G1C had I been there in person.

I hate LA. I hate the Lakers. I hate their coaches. I hate their fans. I hate the very air they breathe.

It's a good night to be a Kings fan.

 

[dude12]

Koufos was top notch tonight.
DC with one of his better games this year
TRob was outstanding.....for us

 

[VF21]

I confess to enjoying this game partially because Rudy and Ben weren't on the court.
