[Game] Kings v. Pelicans, 12/23/13, 7:00 PM PST

[Entity]

Isaiah gets schooled by Evans so decides to throw up a 40 footer.

 

[Bricklayer]

LOL at IT clapping his hands there on that last possession as if he wanted something of Reke...just before Reke power drove him right to the rim.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

JT gets an F tonight... Seriously this guy needs to go

Maybe if we only count one side of the court: Thompson has been aces on defense.

 

[enigma99a]

No role players in your world huh?

Sorry but he's not a role player, he's a starter. If he was off the bench, I'd say sure, fine.

 

[KingMilz]

Bring Cousins back in at 8minunte mark?

These same ppl would give rodman an F every night

So in your world role players don't start?

 

[Glenn]

Sorry but he's not a role player, he's a starter. If he was off the bench, I'd say sure, fine.

You need a better understanding of what a role player is.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Sorry, Rudy Gay has to get that ball.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

There's the old Evans we don't miss.

 

[hrdboild]

I think these guys just invented a new sport on that play.

 

[cuad]

Scary moments. Rudy's gonna finish this game with more turnovers than points.

 

[KingMilz]

Gay is so soft when it comes to getting loose balls that's 3 times this game

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Wait, so we are going to play Jimmer this half, but only in the 4th quarter? That seems .. odd.

 

[theclash4u5]

lol Jimmer traveled there?

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

I hate playing catch-up to start fourth quarters.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Gives IT a break so he can be fresh for whenever he enters. Plus, Jimmer hasn't been bad at all today.

 

[enigma99a]

You need a better understanding of what a role player is.

I expect the whole team to play D, not just JT. And to say he's the only one playing D is great, but I'm still going to say that a starter in this position needs to have a high basketball IQ and be able to score.

 

[hrdboild]

I think Isaiah just needed a breather. This is where the ball needs to go through Cousins again. He spent most of the third on the bench, we need to give him a chance to re-establish himself in this game.

He is great while dribbling. He has problems holding the ball standing still lol

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

It reminded me of when I'd go to visit my grandmother during the summers, and my mom's uncles would get drunk and chase a greased hog around.

 

[enigma99a]

Glad to see Jimmer doing good tonight. No Turnovers either

Bruce Bowen and Dennis rodman said high

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Cousins thought that was a charge, and it kind of was.

 

[cuad]

Funny how Cousins expected a charge there and turned to look at the ref.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

So, uhhh, I don't want Anderson to foul out. Cousins is killing him. Keep him in there.

 

[TheFirstBandwagonKingsFan]

Team is really playing well on offense. They are playing through cuz and passing to the open person

 

[Mad D]

Anderson on Cousins is a Christmas gift from Monty

 

[hrdboild]

We're going to see Davis on Cousins before this game is over.

That's moving the goalposts, more than a little:

Sorry but he's not a role player, he's a starter. If he was off the bench, I'd say sure, fine.

Earlier you suggested that the problem is that starters aren't roleplayers. Now, you're saying that the issue is his basketball IQ.

 

[theclash4u5]

No need to keep forcing fouls below, guys

 

[Entity]

Cousins forcing a bit here.

 

[cuad]

Passing lanes have to open when Cousins gets quadruple-teamed. C'mon, Kings.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Yea, Cousins has shooters open. Love the aggressiveness, but once he loses his dribble he's got 2/3 guys on him inside.
