[Game] Kings v. Timberwolves, 7 APR 2016, 22:00 ET/19:00 PT

I think in the next few off season's Quincy should do everything he can to become a 3 man than can fill in at the 4, with his size and explosiveness and new found shooting touch (near 44% from 3 on a limited sample size) he would be better off playing as a good sized 3 than a undersized 4. If he could fix up his ball handling (mainly in the open court) a bit he could potentially be a 3 and D type guy. Players like DeMare Carroll (became a legit 3/D at like 28/29 and Quincy right now is 25) and Lance Thomas were similar types (not saying he will be better than either) in that there ball handling/shooting sucked now they are at a level where they are two of the better 3 and D guys in the NBA. He made a couple nice 3 man moves today if he wants to maximise whatever potential he has he should do this rather than trying to play as a big imo maybe eventually become Sac-Towns PJ Tucker.

As far as the game WCS had nice moments and I really hope this is the last year I see Rudy Gay in a Kings jersey same goes for Mclemore and Anderson the ball handling and decision making of these 3 is as horrific as it gets. I also think tonight clearly showed Seth is a back up and a decent one but no where near starting type material.

I have found that Ben is an ok player as long as he doesn't dribble the ball. Or make any sort of playmaking decisions, which is to say he's not a very ok player at all. There's no pressing need to move him though aside from the fact that he's one of our few "assets", although his development (if there is any left) would be stifled if we bring in a better SG. I'm not so sure about Quincy moving to the 3 as I feel that would negate a lot of his strengths in hustling around the rim. I would position him as a Udonis Haslem type guy who can hit the open outside shot and contribute a little bit in many other ways.

WCS has shown some nice signs. Comparing his actual production to how fans hype him up is of course a let down, as his rebounding leaves much to be desired and despite what dear DeMarcus says he can't create his own offense on a regular basis. If he could we would have no more need for Cousins. His shooting in the last 10 games have been very nice to see and I hope he continues to build on it. More size and better coaching and practicing fundamentals should do wonders for him.

Never would have dreamed that Quincy Acy would end up being a better shooter than Quincy Douby.

At this point I think it's safe to say that Ben has zero value. Should have traded him last year when there was still an inkling of hope left.

WCS can't create his own offense on a regular basis but remember we're talking about a rookie WCS here. He's never going to be a dominate force inside but he has some serious tools in his arsenal already and he's only going to get better at it. Hopefully Cousins teaches him a thing or two about rebounding. We take for granted how good of a rebounder Cuz is. It's very obvious when he's no longer in the game.
