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

[rainmaker]

Malone needs to start keeping one of Cuz or JT on the floor at all times. Split up the big rotation. We need a post presence in there. Right now there's little reason for Pho not to get up into our perimeter guys as there's no threat inside at all to occupy their attention and send a double/help too.

 

[cuad]

Jimmer got benched? Are you kidding?

 

[mac]

Malone is setting Jimmer up to succeed. He's playing alongside a PG and doesn't need to worry about being the main ballhandler. A Reddick type role, more off the ball is what likely will be his best opportunity to have success in this league and Malone is giving him a chance to do exactly that.

No more of this Keith Smart forcing Jimmer to be a PG and main ballhandler bull dooky we saw last year.

Redick started off just being a spot shooter on kickouts from Dwight Howard. Makes little sense to play him in this small line up - IT isn't a natural passer in the mold of Chris Paul, and our team isn't exactly known for setting good screens and getting guys shots off curls and stuff like that. IMO we'd be better off just having Jimmer spot up for open 3s.

 

[VF21]

Oh...em..gee. BENCH ALL OF THEM!!!!!

 

[Entity]

Outlaw and salmons = 4 turnovers

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Alright Malone... Riding the bench way too long

the problem is too many bench players at once. i hate when teams go to 5 bench players at once. and with this team it clearly hasnt worked

 

[t-rex]

We suck again

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Bad passing. Outlaw with two really lazy passes. Eeeek.

 

[KingMilz]

Another Kings meltdown nothing new

 

[swisshh]

That's both Outlaw and McLemore's fault. Lazy pass, but you got to meet the pass as well.

 

[cuad]

BALL DON'T LIE.

 

[dude12]

Remember that good start?

Boy, do I agree with this!!

 

[Rockmeister]

Get Outlaw out of the game.

 

[chief bromden]

Unbelievable, this game. We seriously look like we are just giving the ball to the Suns. Kings win the first 10 minutes, then they (including the coach) check out? Wow, so many turnovers.

 

[PurpleHaze]

Kings can't sustain anything - that is sustained effort. Phoenix is only team in NBA to lead going into 4th Q every game this season - Kings have to know this if they even care.

Agree. Either have to play him with a big who draws doubles and creates open shots or a guy who can penetrate, shift the defense and create looks. Jimmer will succeed most off ball movement and defenses shifting.

That lineup was terrible. Not just for Jimmer, it didn't have any balance to it.

 

[Entity]

Jerry hasnt had a fresh thought since 1982

 

[chief bromden]

Oh great, Jerry's Fresh Take, that'll turn this around.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Hard to say Malone road the bench too long .. 9+ minutes left in the second. They just stopped playing effective.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

this lineup is straight trash

Straight trash, homie!

 

[Entity]

Tied up starters back in

 

[VF21]

All-Star ballot tip: When you're voting for the West frontcourt, ONLY VOTE FOR DEMARCUS. Leave the other two slots blank. When you vote for anyone WITH Demarcus, it hurts his chances.

 

[KingMilz]

Couisns passing and on the glass just how I like it

 

[Entity]

Flop on cuz yes. But not a foul

 

[chief bromden]

We must be tanking. Hope all the fans in the stands get their money back at this point.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

WHO THE HELL LET KEITH SMART BACK IN THE BUILDING?!?!?!

 

[Chupacabra]

Why is Malone being reactionary and getting into small ball battle? Why not force them to deal with Cousins?

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Man, Take GV off Dragic or something. He gets beat off the dribble consistently.

And what kind of pass was that to LRMAM?

Never could figure this mind set out.
