[Game] Kings v. Suns 11/19/13

[ShastaKingsFan]

Why should this season be any different from the last four?

So what does this win mean, at this point? LOL

 

[VF21]

It's not like I wanted that to hap[pen. We had like three chances to get fouled and messed that up. Why not that?

I believe in all kinds of superstitions. Comes with being a Kings fan for 28 years. You need to keep those jinx-y comments to yourself.

Marcus and chuck awful chummy on the side line talking with each other the whole time. Making plane and hotel plans maybe?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Every win for the Kings is a good win!

Even better, NBA TV showed the last two minutes, via Game Time Live Look-in. So, the world got to see Cousins playing like gangbusters down the stretch. That'll hopefully help his All-Star chances.

This is why everyone kept saying DO NOT TRADE DEMARCUS COUSINS because when he turns it around...well...we're seeing it now.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

So what does this win mean, at this point? LOL

It means we didn't lose. Was this a trick question?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

that win was ALL Cousins. dominated both ends down the stretch

 

[Kingstime]

Malone has this teams ear, loving the effort tonight and the fact that Salmons is officially out of the rotation and its looking like Thornton is on his way out as well.

Demarcus Cousins is a beast and the man is growing into a legit leader before our eyes

 

[cuad]

The team played well with 4 shooters out there.

 

[gunks]

We won with D and our franchise guy. I can dig it.

 

[miltonap]

Any news on Marcus? Was he on the bench?

 

[The_Jamal]

The 2nd half team is what we need to be about. Effort, energy, hustle. Sharing the ball. Feeding Cuz. Hitting open shots. Diving on the floor for loose balls. Communicating on defense.

I've said it before, but there's a team in here somewhere folks. And I think tonight was a good step in finding it

Mark this night on your calendars. Tonight was the night that we will point to as the night that it all started. Grab a seat, fasten your seat belt and hold on. It's gonna be one helluva ride.

And no John Salmons/ Thornton! WOOHOO

 

[flamecrow]

praying we didn't use all our energy and get blown out tomorrow XD, weirder things have happened though!

I know Isaiah is great coming off the bench and all. He is Taylor made for that role. But he and cuz are very comfortable together.

Definately if that Phoenix team is having success there is no reason for this squad to be in the basement. If they buy in to hustle and defense consistently every night they will find the wins

Perhaps this is a touch too exuberant...

Don't forget heart.

No Hayes. Pretty much the main three that are expendable in fans eyes were on the bench in second half

 

[VF21]

Any news on Marcus? Was he on the bench?

And the winner for totally irrelevant question of the night goes to...

Slowly but surely Coach Malone is getting the rotation right - and it's not easy with so little overall talent. More Luc, more Travis, less Salmons, less Thornton - more BMac of course.

It was that block....such a great block

 

[The_Jamal]

Speaking of which, when the heck did Outlaw become a good role player? Dude had that big shot, 9 rebounds, and played some really strong defense. Scary as it is, he's been one of our most consistent players

 

[HereWeBoogie]

if Eric Bledsoe plays we are in trouble

Sorry you feel that way. I've been a fan of the NBA since 1965. What DFC did tonight was as definitive a statement as anything I have EVER seen, bar none.

Malone defined his role and gave him reliable minutes.
