[Game] Kings vs Jazz 3/22/12

Nice defense there by Cisco and Jimmer.

 

[The_Jamal]

As I said, Reke is the only one who can penetrate.

Says your own biased point of view

but hey

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

If we could just stop them a few times...

 

[kingsnation]

Yeah we need to get DMC and JT in there to help out Reke.

IT needs a screen, MT cannot penetrate to the rim off the dribble. He can slash every so often. I have yet to see either face guys up off the dribble and beat them, without a screen. Yes, bias indeed.

 

[kingsnation]

Jimmer!

 

[kingsnation]

Poor JT. Playing the best basketball of his career. Hasn't seen the court since the 1st qtr.

I have a feeling he's going to replace Greene after this timeout...

 

[cuad]

wtf was that, greene?

 

[rainmaker]

Poor JT. Playing the best basketball of his career. Hasn't seen the court since the 1st qtr.

Should have been back at the 6 min mark, at the latest. But that's with a normal coach with normal sub patterns. Really, JT/IT deserve to be back in above the other starters and should have been for a few mins now.

I've seen IT and MT penetrate without a screen all the time.

See how strong that argument is?

Reke is certainly better than both at getting the to the rim, but it's foolish to suggest Thornton or IT can't penetrate

Agreed.

 

[rainmaker]

Ray really was a great pickup.

That's quite funny. And that's why why MT gets iso'd, he basically never gets by his man and forces up a tough jumper, right?

 

[Kings Faithful]

Garcia is absolutely terrible when he has to rush his 3's. He can only hit them when he's been set for 3 seconds.

 

[kingsnation]

Man Reke is amazing at running the floor.

 

[deekay2o9]

What's with some of these passes?

 

[Arkitect]

Ah yes here is the King's team I remeber.

 

[The_Jamal]

Reke at his finest!

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Jeez. Al Jefferson.

 

[The_Jamal]

Jesus, Cousins needs to play some freaking defense. Al Jeff is getting whatever he wants

 

[rainmaker]

Defense, defense, defense. Can we get some? Need it to win this.

 

[Bricklayer]

Defense, defense, defense. Can we get some? Need it to win this.

No no no. I have been informed I should not worry aobut our defense because we have been scoring a lot. Chill brother!

 

[Kings Faithful]

Jesus, Cousins needs to play some freaking defense. Al Jeff is getting whatever he wants

He's trying not to pick up fouls.

 

[swisshh]

Both Thornton and Cousins missing a lot of shots that they normally make. Cousins defense on Jefferson is the bigger problem though. He's got to start taking more pride in guarding his man.

The bench as Reke and Jimmer pushing the ball and looking to score sort of works right now.

 

[Glenn]

He's trying not to pick up fouls.

It is far more important that DMC stays on the floor.

 

[The_Jamal]

He's trying not to pick up fouls.

So letting Al Jeff go for 16 pts on 8-11 shooting is the solution to keeping Boogie out of foul trouble?

No thanks

 

[kingsnation]

He's trying not to pick up fouls.

He can't be so concerned that he's just playing matador defense. Might as well have him on the bench if he's going to play defense like that. He has to learn to be aggressive defensively but wise at the same time.

 

[The_Jamal]

Everyone else is playing fairly well. Cousins and Thornton killed us offensively and Utah shot the ball ridiculously well. We got a shot at this game if those 2 pick it up

 

[Kings Faithful]

Not saying thats a good thing right now, just saying why Jefferson is torching us. Cuz only has 2 going into the 3rd so look for him to tighten it up. He'll probably have 4 or 5 by the 4th though.
