Coming out party?

Did I really just see Tyreke Evans pass it on the break? Miracles do happen!

Lol. Keep up with the vivid descriptions of the game. I'm in the Philippines on vacation and I am relying on you guys here for Play by play!

70% from three-point land..... are our shooters actually making their shots? yes, about time

 

[Tetsujin]

That's called drawing a foul. He didn't have an open pass anyway.

Well obviously those defenders were open.

Coming out party?

Could be... Finally getting used to playing with each other and getting a bit of confidence

 

[PurpleHaze]

Let's blow somebody out for a change. No second half nail bite for a change. Donte in for garbage time for a change.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

and the next trip he has two open guys and opts to throw up a garbage shot instead...

If the free throws go in I'll take the foul.

Well obviously those defenders were open.

Dude's got 14 points on 6 of 10 shooting and 6 assists with 2 minutes left in the half and you're complaining about selfishness?

 

[matthew76]

not to mention 14/15 from free throws

 

[Nighthawk1]

Casspi annoying Melo, if they start trying to go down low to Melo more then it's definately Donte time.

Side Note:

Are the Nuggets the most tattooed team in the NBA? I mean, Birdman definitely skews the tat/skin ratio, but still.

The defense and ball movement on offense has been, dare I say it, phenomenal (at least by our paltry standards). This past week has been like watching them flip the switch in their heads collectively (the New Year's Day hangover not withstanding). There have definitely been more steps being taken forward than steps back as of late.

JT playing solid offensively and quieted down Harrington by being able to defend him on the peremiter and keep pace with him. Nice rebound after JT's horrid 1st stint

 

[Tetsujin]

I'm not. I was defending Reke.

 

[Agent23]

Reke has 7 assists so far. Thought he was a selfish player, lol.

 

[Asaf]

Coming out party?

I don't know. For NBA players I think it's best to stay in the closet...

 

[hrdboild]

I'm not. I was defending Reke.

My fault, I guess I misunderstood that comment then.

 

[Kings Fan Gerard]

Where exactly in the Philippines are you? Basketball TV (cable channel) might be showing the game right now.

Edit: I guess not since they showed the Mavs-Thunder game earlier.

Go Kings! Don't choke out on this one!

 

[Nighthawk1]

Reke has 7 assists so far. Thought he was a selfish player, lol.

I think people mis-interpret stats for him. He passes, it's just more often then not the person he passes to misses..

 

[venom_7]

The "shot" changed things for this team. Just the overall attitude and swagger.

 

[Dr. Spaceman]

That's called drawing a foul. He didn't have an open pass anyway.

Yeah, keeping the ball on that play was understandable. Baby steps...

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Fantastic half of basketball. Lots of really solid play out of everyone, with Cisco, Cousins, and Evans doing most of the damage.

Casspi has been playing much better lately earning lots of minutes off the bench. Good to see Carl get going too. He couldnt stop Harrington, but the offense was there.

I hope this is us breaking out. We have been quietly playing solid ball for a few weeks now. ( with a few stinkers sprinkled in )

 

[Tetsujin]

Here comes the Barkley stupid Kings bashing of the day.

 

[hrdboild]

I was wrong. The Nuggets are the ones embarrassing themselves.

Sir Charles agrees with you. Heh.

 

[Tetsujin]

Sir Charles agrees with you. Heh.

According to him, we could have started a bunch of preschoolers and still won.

 

[Tetsujin]

Welp that's it. Turning off the TV. Tell me when the game's started again.

 

[Asaf]

Barkley is so full of **** whenever Westphal comes up.

 

[ArcoKings]

Barkley is a *ick.

 

[ArcoKings]

Barkley thinks the Kings are crap. LOL.

 

[RookieOfTheDay]

Barkley telling it like it is. Kings fans may not like what he said but for the most part, he's right. I've been saying the same thing all year.
