GREAT pass Chuck. GREAT cut Reke. TEAM ball. Love it.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That offense sure does look stagnant...

Great little stint from Reke at PG

 

[flipray]

Just got home. Love the off the ball stuff MT/Reke are doing.

 

[wazzups]

oh good we are up with a game break coach will fix that quick switch these guys out the owners are probably watching switch em out quick lol

 

[rainmaker]

Because its what inexperienced coaches do. Your bench gives you a spark and turns things around which is what you hope for but you have to know when to bring your starters back. Inevitably, Smart sticks with this second quarter thing which either ruins the momentum the starters had or over emphasizes the bench to the point it loses effectiveness. Either way, it ices starters and kills any kind of game flow.

In terms of the troll thing, honestly you are aren't really a kings fan. When people from other areas come on here with criticisms I think people are a little skeptical

Yup. Problem is riding the bench had little to do with them being hot this game and everything to do with Smart doing this every game. He plants his starting backcourt on the bench too long every single game. If anyone actually thought he was simply riding a hot bench for a quarter it woudn't be a problem. Problem is he rides them too long every game whether they're hot or not and kills his starters.

Well, unless you're Cuz.

Tyreke playing as facilitator right now instead of a scorer, and looks good.

As long as the guys space the floor well someone will be open. He always pulls a couple defends when he starts to dribble. If they don't double he is the Layup King! If they do and people are in the proper positions we get good looks. That's the part we need to improve the most I think in regards to our offense. Not crowding each other.

This Tyreke Evans, where he knows he's going to touch the ball, is much more prone to pass and make plays for others .. which is why his best backcourt mate was a guy like Beno.

 

[The_Jamal]

I like seeing Reke get into the offense quick. That was a major problem for him

 

[Tetsujin]

Call the cops. Reke hit a jumper

 

[spudfan]

This lineup here, if you add Cousins is what I think most of us wanted to see as the starters during preseason. It looks pretty good.

He was riding a hot bench that he hasn't ridden this year. Not only that but the Kings are short handed tonight. There just wasn't a reason to be all upset about Reke not being in.

 

[The_Jamal]

What a BS shot by Aldridge. You cannot defend a shot better than Chuck did right there

 

[cuad]

Why is JJ Hickson catching everything?

 

[wazzups]

hey now the defense has kicked it up a notch lolz

Ha ha ha.

He rides the bench too long every game, hot or not, short handed or not.

You can only defend it better if you are taller. It's one of the problems we have really. Even if you defend it perfect you still are too short to make much of a difference. Luckily you don't have to deal with guys like Aldridge too often

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Jesse Sapolu night? random.

 

[spudfan]

Bad play there. Give to guard and get some movement plz.

 

[rainmaker]

Another JJ iso out of a timeout. Ugly as usual.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Why are we feeding Johnson?

 

[spudfan]

Another JJ iso out of a timeout. Ugly as usual.

I think JJ is above average/good when he catches the ball as he is slashing. He is strong enough to penetrate and big enough to finish. Why we have him/let him create for himself is mystery to me.

 

[annihilator_33]

James Johnson......stop shooting

 

[rainmaker]

If Reke was kicking to shooters, it'd be a different game.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Evans creates wide-open shot for Thornton, brick.

Stagnant offense.

 

[spudfan]

Too crowded, can't have two guys near the lane when Tyreke is at the elbow area looking to drive.

Who do you think they should put in?
