[Game] Kings v. Suns - Saturday, Jan. 2 - 2 PM PT, 5 PM ET

[Merdiesel]

I'll never get the day Ronnie Price destroyed Boozer. What a dunk.

 

[206Fan]

Great to see Anderson get PT.

 

[Showtime]

So apparently, according to the broadcast, Willie's finger is good to go, but Napear says Karls says his "conditioning" isn't there yet, but according to Napear, he's been running and doing cardio training the entire time he's been off, but is not in game shape, and so this is why Karl says he's not ready and won't play.

EXCUSE ME!???!

How the HELL do you get in game shape if not for actually playing? Also, I refuse to believe there aren't cardio excersises a pro can do that get you damn close to game shape... with a busted finger. You just go hard, do intervals, etc.

Eff you Karl. Just eff you.

All that is is an excuse to play your pet style. We all know you didn't play WCS as much as you should have when he was healthy.

It isn't as if he'd even get a lot of PT anyway. He was averaging 19 min when healthy. I'm sure in 10-15 min he'd be fine even if he was out of shape.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

What does Rudy Gay give us when he isnt shooting well?

Heartburn.

 

[The Hammer]

Cant keep putting this on the players, even casual fans will begin to notice the terrible job the Karl is doing sooner or later.

I find myself rooting again for open disaster, so that Karl's idiocy is on full display and a coaching change is publicly supported, and perhaps even publicly pressured. That's my way of taking solace in crap shows like this.

 

[SLAB]

James Anderson... Give me a ****ing break Karl.

 

[Glenn]

Cousins looks very motivated today and even his demeanor is great for those of you who think that is important.

 

[Showtime]

So the lineup is:

Rondo
DC
Anderson
Casspi
DMC

And they don't run the offense through DMC on the block every single possession?

 

[Merdiesel]

Beautiful arc on that shot by Cuz.

 

[The Hammer]

It isn't as if he'd even get a lot of PT anyway. He was averaging 19 min when healthy. I'm sure in 10-15 min he'd be fine even if he was out of shape.

I know. But my point is also that 19 minutes for a very effective defensive big is still way too low. Should be 25-30.

 

[HndsmCelt]

I don't care who you are that's funny!

 

[SLAB]

Smiling Cuz slapping hands with Karl.

 

[VF21]

Tell me I didn't just see George Karl get a T because of a foul called on James Anderson... I think George wants to leave early.

 

[Merdiesel]

Nice to see Karl and DMC laughing together. Even if it's over a stupid T.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Cousins can't play 48 minutes. I mean, it's too bad Kosta is nearly useless, but Cousins has to rest sometime.

This is true, but I'm pretty sure that Quincy Acy and James Anderson are still cashing checks. Just because Cousins has to rest doesn't mean that Karl has to play 3 guards at once.

 

[206Fan]

Tell me I didn't just see George Karl get a T because of a foul called on James Anderson... I think George wants to leave early.

I think it was something about Cousins too

 

[206Fan]

....smiling Cousins is weird...not used to this.

Therefor, I expect a win.

That wont happen in Sacramento. Grant is on an all out blitz to put this on Cousins and has quiet the following. Take a look around facebook twitter etc, more people want Cuz gone instead of firing Karl.

 

[VF21]

Whew. Thanks. I was in the kitchen and thought I heard Grant say it was after a foul call on Anderson.

Grant Napear's followers do not represent the majority of Kings fans.

It's almost like his pre-game Gatorade was spiked with happy pills.

Which boggles my mind.

You give up on a future HOF big man entering his prime for a coach that has 2 years, MAYBE, left in the tank (on the contract at least).

I have no sympathy for people with such short sightedness.

 

[Glenn]

....smiling Cousins is weird...not used to this.

He even chatted with a ref with a big smile on his face. The ref seemed to like that. Something must be wrong.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

What does Rudy Gay give us when he isnt shooting well?

He does rebound reasonably well for his position.

 

[VF21]

See the last quote in my signature.

 

[KingMilz]

The team seems to do fine scoring without Rudy so that Chicago trade should really be looked at, Cuz and Taj would be ideal.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I'll never get the day Ronnie Price destroyed Boozer. What a dunk.

That's why BamBoozer started wearing that shoe polish: Price dunked the hair off his head.

 

[dude12]

So when George still isn't playing WCS a week later, what will Vlade do? The kid has to get at least 15-18 minutes a game....at least.

 

[kingjatt]

Grant Napear's followers do not represent the majority of Kings fans.

For example look at the biggest season ticket holder/group tickets and overall kings fans page on facebook you have many more people putting this on Cousins than anyone else.

Fortunately demagogues only have as much power as you give them, and we have Vlade as a negativity buffer. If Vlade was the owner, and not Vivek, I wouldn't even worry about it,.
