gotta love the energy the kings played with in that second quarter! When the Kings run and are unselfish with the ball and play defense....usually means were gonna do good!

We are finally passing the ****ing ball.

Teague made that last second shot over a very outstreched but barely elevated DMC - proving he never was and never will be a shot blocker. Still, nice try big guy - now go get 'em in second half.
Glad we fought back, but again I think it was largely due to individual effort and good play by the guys than Smart's offense. That and the Hawks turning the ball over a lot. We gave up a lot of open shots but were fortunate that they missed a lot of them.
Do you think the Hawks will trade us Kyle Korver for Garcia/Outlaw? I'd like a Kyle Korver on our team.

Cause Tyreke lacks a jumper....i dont know why he always rushes his jumpers, the defense will usually give him it

Its not that ball movement stops, its that the ball is usually swung to JJ or Tyreke, who both cannot throw a ball into the ocean. They hesitate to shoot which lets defenses recover and stop their drives pretty easily on most occasions. I may get hate for this but i would start Thornton over Tyreke right now and if he doesn't want to do that, trade him and get as much value as possible.
When he was in the team was losing and the guys that came in for him were balling.

this team needs a SF that can shoot and play solid defense in the lineup. If you have tyreke out there he can be the slasher/defender. Look at the grizzlies they got tony allen starting at SG and he cant shoot but he plays defense. They got conley and gay who can both shoot. If the kings had a better SF then the team would be much better. Johnson should be back up SF.

He pouted about it before in that famous spat storming out of locker room with Artest chasing him down to cool him off. Seems Salmons nowadays doesn't care as much with his big fat long term contract and just wants decent minutes and maybe on the floor at the end which is all that matters anyway.

Alternately, and here's a wackadoodle thoguht, you make Reke the swinger not the swingee.
I know, I know. Coaching genius of unprecedented level.

I would still go with JJ, being moved to the bench would kill his confidence xD
Brooks played the ENTIRE second quarter and went 5-6 for 13 points. He had 0 turnovers and 3 assists. You are doubting it was individual effort?

I'm not sure why people are calling it an 'individual' comeback. They track assists for a reason.

Brooks, while a huge part of the comeback, wasn't the only reason for it. We moved the ball better than we have all year.
Brooks didn't score 36 points in the 2nd quarter did he? The ball movement we just saw in the 2nd was easily the best we've seen in a long, long time. Salmons, Cousins, Brooks were all dishing the ball around the court resulting in great shots. And we actually had players on the floor who can make those shots
Horford gave us a Xmas gift on that missed layup.

The day Big Emotional Cuz ignores the occasional goof of officials and just goes to the next play as he's slowly doing is the day he reaches super-stardom.
JJ should be fined for every shot he takes, whether he makes it or not.
