[Game] Kings v. Raptors, 2/5/14, 7 PM PST, 10 PM EST

[Bricklayer]

This is about as "democratic" an effort as we have had for quite a while when the Big Three are all healthy. I don't think any of the three are playing particularly well, but MT and JT showed up and so its been 5 guys producing rather than 3.

P.S. at halftime, our starting frontcourt: 28pts 15reb. Their starting frontcourt: 9pts 5reb.

Exactly. Any bench production or sg production this year woul look a lot different

That's why you share the ball with EVERYONE, as Gary Oldman would say. Make them feel like they are important because they are.

MT+Ben= 18 points, 3/5 3pt shooting. Most nights, we're lucky if we get that over the course of the whole game from SG.

That's not surprising according to Sam Amick (as I quoted in Fredette thread) since he says Kings frontcourt is not the problem (Cuz, JT, Rudy, etc.). Amick says Kings problem is all in backcourt and they're likely in trade talks (to one degree or another) for PG and SG upgrade. But I guess we all know this - right?!

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I'm guessing Sign Lady is still OOC? Hope she gets better soon.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

That sucks, Thornton was playing well

 

[VF21]

Demarcus FREAKING Cousins!

 

[HereWeBoogie]

There was literally no one in front of IT on the fast break. Why the hate?

Because there was a player laying on the ground hurt under the basket. Not only do you stop the game so your teammate can get looked at, but scoring that basket then puts you in a 4 on 5 on defense, in which Patrick Patterson hit a 3

 

[Entity]

Why outlaw?

 

[VF21]

Marcus has bruised his left knee and right hip and will not return. Thankfully, no mention of a concussion.

She was at the last game but her husband said she would not be there tonight

 

[Rockmeister]

After taking a hard fall, Marcus will not return for the 2nd half.

Wrong. I'll bag on IT as much as anyone, but you do not stop play every time a player goes down. You just don't.

 

[Chicken Chaser]

Are we playing Outlaw because DWill derped that self alley oop last game?

 

[VF21]

They're gonna triple-team DMC? Interesting game plan...

 

[Proof21]

I believe he tweeked something pregame.

 

[Tetsujin]

That was Shaq-esque. Triple teamed

 

[Entity]

Outlaw smh

 

[VF21]

No way to know for sure, but Malone did talk about respecting the game and respecting Thibedeau.

 

[fanop]

bad shooting night for Gay, but he's contributing in many ways

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Wrong. I'll bag on IT as much as anyone, but you do not stop play every time a player goes down. You just don't.

I don't object to the layup; nothing wrong with that play. That said, I would have gone for the intentional foul, right after.

 

[VF21]

Okay, come on Kings. Don't let Toronto think they might get back into this...

 

[Kingsfan23]

Travis outlaw, brace myself when he's in

 

[VF21]

Uh oh. Malone doing a face palm. Not good.

 

[fanop]

coach is sleeping... a boring game, we understand

 

[Entity]

The decision to put outlaw in is a mistake

 

[HereWeBoogie]

hahahaha

Did anyone ask Commissioner Silver about putting the Kings in the Eastern Conference?

Are people still asking why Williams isn't playing tonight?

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

that would be some coincidence. I don't believe that
