[Game] Kings v. Rockets - 11/25/16 - 7:30PT/10:30ET

[Tetsujin]

Give him credit, Ty Lawson still scraps.

 

[kingjatt]

Ty lawson and Garrett Temple bringing real energy. Hope the starters take note.

 

[Glenn]

Just when we need that game altering, mood lifting shot, we miss.

 

[Tetsujin]

This line-up of random role players and Omri Casspi is surprisingly effective.

 

[macadocious]

It's still early but where does GT rank among the best defenders in Sacramento Kings history?

He's probably 6th after Dylan, Dylan, Dylan, Dylan and Dylan.

 

[Larry89]

Wow the only one on the Rockets who can run a proper pick and roll is James Harden and he started in the NBA as a SG not a PG..

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I can't tell whether Houston is trying too hard to go for the knockout, or if they just play like that; they don't have an official two-point attempt in the quarter. Hell, they don't 'officially' have an attempt inside of twenty-five feet in the quarter.

Eric Gordon has attempted two 30-ft three pointers in this quarter alone.

 

[SLAB]

Koufos with the touch.

 

[jcwkings]

Cousins needs to take this gamw over, has been pedestrian.

 

[Larry89]

There was no foul there

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Teams would really be better off conceding that layup to Harden.

 

[SLAB]

Ohhhhhhh Omri....

something about metrics and shot efficiency and style.....

 

[Gliesian]

That's why Casspi doesn't play.

 

[Tetsujin]

And just when you thought the Kings had a spark of momentum, Omri stands a couple of inches out of bounds to take it away.

 

[New Era]

Sigh

 

[Capt. Factorial]

It's not his fault he has long heels!

 

[PurpleHaze]

You could hear a pin drop

 

[New Era]

We just couldn't overcome that 1st quarter. It's nice to see that we don't give up though.

 

[BamBam52]

Idiots!!

 

[Tetsujin]

I might have said this before but Garrett Temple is a defensive monster. He might honestly be playing the Tony Allen role better than Tony Allen did.

 

[kingjatt]

Rudy and Cuz just dont have it today, but credit the rockets they had a great gameplan for us on both sides and exposed us excellently.

 

[HndsmCelt]

To me the heartbreaking part is if we had played with this kind of intensity from the beginning we would be up or tied right now

 

[jcwkings]

Clint Capela has essentially shut down Cousins.

 

[New Era]

Nothing good ever happens when DeMarcus brings the ball up the floor.

 

[Larry89]

too much standing around on offense this game compared to last game

 

[HndsmCelt]

Clint Capela has essentially shut down Cousins.

he's had some help from the refs

 

[New Era]

he's had some help from the refs

Not really

 

[funkykingston]

I still think Temple should start.

Afflalo hasn't got it going and is most effective when he can post up smaller guards and Lawson/Collison is just too small and leaves no PGs on the bench.

I'd like to see:

Collison
Temple
Gay
Barnes
Cousins

And I think Lawson, McLemore, Afflalo, Casspi & Koufos should be the second unit.
