Kings vs The Heat 1/12/13, 6 PM

Why is MT in before Reke. How is Reke going to get his conditioning back if he doesn't even play

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Can we ship Smart, Garcia and Outlaw to Seattle and keep our franchise? They can start a team out of those guys

 

[rainmaker]

Down about 25, so Smart bring in MT ahead of Reke? So, waiting for Reke to play SF again? Goddamn our coach is too much of a pansy to solidify a rotation which makes an inkling of sense, or even a sub pattern that looks half competent.

So frustrating and depressing. Reke might aswell go somewhere else where he can flourish into a star.

 

[jpsls]

KJ said he had a special announcement during the game? Any news on what he said?

 

[rainmaker]

Reke back to SF while IT throws another errant pass. Awesome.

It literally makes no sense given Reke was our best player at SG pre injury. Why the hell wouldn't you work on getting his conditioning back and his game up to speed at SG?

 

[flipray]

Wow Reke at SF. More standing on the wing

 

[1234kings]

I kind of like this liine up

 

[rainmaker]

IT has taken 16 shots, 7 more than Cuz who's 2nd tonight. Exactly how are MT or Reke supposed to get going with a PG who looks for his own above anything else?

And that's a Smart issue as well for thinking it would somehow work. That doesn't even include defense where we're undersized at the 1-3 spots.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

I know its the Heat and we should lose this game. But we look freakin pathetic. I pray that trades are coming.

uhmmm IT has always been a ballhog

 

[gunks]

Smart is dumb.

 

[1234kings]

wow 60% shooting O.O

 

[HereWeBoogie]

28 points for Mario freakin Chalmers. Need any more proof that this team needs a legit PG?

 

[gunks]

Geoff Petrie is dumb.

Only you would complain about IT playing out of control when our Reke/Cousins/Thornton are playing like crap.

 

[rainmaker]

IT's shot/assists ratio is 7/1.

Most PG's it's 1.5/1 to 2/1.

Great IT is shooting well, but he's taken our three top players out of the game to do so.

 

[The_Jamal]

28 points for Mario freakin Chalmers. Need any more proof that this team needs a legit PG?

Some of that's on IT and some of that's on our inability to get back in transition. Chalmers has at least 4 threes where he's sitting wide open on a fast break

 

[jpsls]

Geoff Petrie is dumb.

Keith Smart is a bigger fool. You can tell he is a true disciple of Don Nelson.

 

[The_Jamal]

I hate Isaiah Thomas. How dare he drop 32 points on 21 shots

 

[rainmaker]

A PG taking 21 shots in 26 mins next to Cuz/Reke/MT is exactly what this team needs. Clearly we're better for it.

Every other night, I agree. However, Cuz/Reke/MT are a combined 7/25 shooting tonight.

Was coming to see if someone posted this. I mean, I guess it's ok if we lose by 30 if IT takes 20+ shots and scores 30. /sarcasm

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Cousins not sitting on the actual bench. Lol

 

[The_Jamal]

Clearly, that's why we're getting blown out. What a joke

They haven't played well, but they haven't had a chance to get a rhythm either. Just nowhere near enough touches for those three to get a rhythm. Part is Smart playing IT/MT/Reke together, part is IT looking more for himself than any of the three.

 

[The_Jamal]

Damn you IT! How dare you take and make that wide open 3! You're not getting Reke/Cousins/Thornton involved!!

Let's not kid ourselves. No one gets in a rhythm when Thornton is on the court.

It's part of it. Don't create a strawman and act like I said it's the only reason.

I think this is the answer. Tyreke had a stretch where he controlled the ball and did well with it. Being moved to SF hurts him bad. I have been screaming for a MT & Garcia for a SF/PF/C trade for almost a year.
