Kings vs Lakers

My God.... the Lakers look like garbage. Does anyone think they might actually not be a great team this year? Yeah, they have beast starters but they have too many new elements.. half their team is new, new system, new coach.... not to mention no depth.

The coach isn't exactly new. He's just not a very good coach. Give Pop a team like this and see what happens. If any problem arises it'll be because of Pop's refusal to bend to the star pressure.
 
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I don't care if it's playoffs, regular season, preseason, summer league, rec league, YMCA league, 3-on-3, HORSE, hopscotch, checkers, T-ball, dominoes, go fish or a sack race, I want the Kings to beat the gd lakers. Beat 'em down, beat 'em down, beat 'em down!
 
I think Lakers are vastly overrated going into this season - and Kings perhaps underrated. Nash, MWP, and even Gasol are aging "stars." Of course, Kobe isn't playing tonight but he's an aging star too and maybe this season will show he's past surperstar tag. Kings instead of just looking young, look much more poised, and best of all their talent is rising not declining.
 
Ok can we all agree that defense and turnovers (giveaway vs. takeaway) and free throws don't look to be a problem this year? I mean if you sure up those 3 things thats alot of wins.
 
Don't want to read too much into beating the Lakers three times. Even though they have DH and Nash, they look pretty damn bad right now. And don't forget we still have Outlaw, he can give a double digit lead all by himself.

Not even sure about the beast starter thing. Aside from Dwight, they're pretty damn old

Yes, but Kobe and Pau still possess a lot of skill. I feel like Nash will get lost in the fold somewhere... just too much star power in the starting lineup, someones gonna get forgotten.
 
This is just unreal. Amazing. We were all right about the line up. And My god, DeMarcus Cousins is just amazing. If Reke can play at this level, or dang, 75% of this level, we will be dangerous. MT and AB arent even involved as well

Cousins averages at least one 'beast mode rebound sequence' per game. We just saw tonights.

Lol. It's funny because it shows you just how active and good he is, but at the same time you realise that if he wasn't forcing those shots around the rim up he wouldn't be having those beast mode sequences.
 
WOW. if this is the DMC and Tyreke we see every night, and this is the Kings team Defense we see every night. other teams better get scared
 
absolutely loving the defensive intensity i see. maybe our players were all just waiting till closer to the regular season to turn it on lol
