[Game] Kings v. Thunder - 1/15/17 - 6PT/9ET

[gunks]

Apparently he's going to prove me wrong,which I'm perfectly happy with.

Ditto!

Rudy proving us wrong can only pay dividends!

Now that Joerger is finally playing a starting lineup that makes sense ....

the next "obvious" elephant in the room is this Cousins standing on the top of the key every time down the floor. I'm sorry but he needs to be in the post. occasionally shooting 3's is fine. but he is way less effective when he's always trying to cross people over/ driving the paint or spot shooting 3's.

his rebounds are down because he's standing at the 3pt line. not a fan

Wrong.

Having Cousins constantly in the post when you've got a player like Adams on the court makes him less effective, especially in the early part of the game. Having Cousins at the top of the key allows him to direct traffic and see the whole court much easier.

His stat line right now is 7/6/3. I think he's doing just fine.

 

[VF21]

yeah this is his worst nightmare. Westbrook is freakish. un guard able

At least when it's Westbrook, we know it's not just the Kings who can't find a way to stop him.

We sure like to turn it over a lot early in games

 

[gunks]

Hey, we didn't get totally destroyed in the 1st quarter!

I like Kosta. I think he's a great backup for Boogie.

But Tolliver is a better fit in a starting lineup that features Gay & Cousins.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That was not an ideal end to the quarter.

 

[VF21]

That was not an ideal end to the quarter.

Payne's bucket didn't count, did it?

 

[Suicide King]

So much for my low turnover's hopes.

 

[Suicide King]

Payne's bucket didn't count, did it?

It did not

 

[glassman]

Wrong.

well alright haha... just wrong haha ... well we agree to disagree

 

[VF21]

well alright haha... just wrong haha ... well we agree to disagree

No. I refuse to agree with you...

You were right about Temple, however. He continues to impress me with his professionalism and his focus. (Don't expect me to admit you were right about anything ever again...)

 

[VF21]

Random comment: I do not like the player names at the bottom of the jerseys. Looks stupid.

 

[jcwkings]

We've been down double digits in EVERY game of this homestand. This team is just not very talented and old to boot.

 

[VF21]

I missed it. Why did KK get t'd up?

 

[dude12]

WCS in....showcasing him?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Cauley-Stein for Koufos?

 

[VF21]

WCS in....showcasing him?

But doesn't "showcasing" kind of imply the player being showcased will do something/anything showcaseworthy?

 

[dude12]

We've been down double digits in EVERY game of this homestand. This team is just not very talented and old to boot.

And that is with Temple starting,and Koufos not starting....just doesn't matter.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Well, this showcase is working out just splendidly...

 

[glassman]

No. I refuse to agree with you...

You were right about Temple, however. He continues to impress me with his professionalism and his focus. (Don't expect me to admit you were right about anything ever again...)

hey #1 was Temple in at starting SG... #2Koufos out of the starting line up and #3 Spencer Hawes... I was 100% right on those 3...

as a warning my new crusade is for Casspi over Barnes .... that makes no sense to me still.... especially after Casspi's last season. Barnes is a train wreck. Casspi is just all around healthier for the team in every way

 

[k_dubb90]

Hey look! We're down by 10 again!!

 

[New Era]

WCS looks like he'd rather be anywhere than playing in the game right now. He's a bum.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Team is still unwatchable

I want to believe Temple is good enough that we'd like him to be. The no offense will get old soon. Bad form on jumper, leg going out

 

[Kingsfan23]

Tv off.

9th lottery pick, here we come

 

[glassman]

And that is with Temple starting,and Koufos not starting....just doesn't matter.

umm it absolutely does matter....

we started this line up against.... (drum roll please) .... The Warriors and YES WE HAD A LEAD TO START THE GAME.... we ran this starting line up once before against TOR and we had a lead in the first quarter and half.. and won.

since GS.... we played DET, CLE, and OKC...

you can't say it doesn't matter .... 4 of the 5 times we ran this lineup were against playoff teams. give these guys our best starting guys a break... they need a maybe at least a few more games to fully gel.

 

[206Fan]

Glad Willie is seeing some PT

 

[PurpleHaze]

Team is still unwatchable

I now only listen on radio. Bit more tolerable that way

9th lottery pick, here we come

as long as we have one...i'm fine with it.
