Nuggets @ Kings Game Thread

[venom_7]

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYBODY!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Kings offense has really been grooving lately and I don't think we will see many mistakes by the team tonight because they have had 3 days to practice. I really want to watch this game, just to see the beauty of our offense.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bucks are a strange team. They WERE 9-2 at home and I honestly don't see how that happened. They have the worst starting front court in the league but they have one of the best starting back courts.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks again to Jumpermania the Kings won a game. But, like the Nets, the Bucks decided that the Kings are just terrible shooter and left most of the guys wide open. Beno had a field day and banked one in just because he could. Most of the shots Cisco took were wide open as well, he just missed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Redd got his, Mo Williams was nice, but Krystoviak should really work on the Bucks zone. That was terrible, almost no response to the ball, and no movement at all. The Kings zone does a good job a moving around, but sometimes they move so much the guy with the ball can get to the basket. Also Brad is really slow.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Kings can make playoffs. No ifs, no buts, they can. And the reason for this statement is that there are not many teams that have a better record that the Kings do, and right now there are about 13 teams within 4 games of the Kings. So it isn't optimism.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Nuggets are one of those teams where you know what you are going to get with them. Personally, I think George Karl isn't the right coach for these guys, but hey. Iverson is a matchup nightmare, but Salmons will guard him so that should be interesting. Camby might still be out with a tweaked back, and he always kills us so thats good for the Kings.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
AWARD TIME

TDM goes to Royal Ivey. I don’t know what’s more impressive: Royal Ivey finding another NBA team willing to keep him on the roster or Royal Ivey making me think of Gabe Muoneke for the first time in ages. He also appeared to have punched Matt Bonner basically in his namesake. http://blogs.mysanantonio.com/weblogs/courtside/archives/2007/11/jeff_mcdonald_w_5.html

LW-VC went to Charlie Bell because he was just terrible.

SAR - Methuselah award goes to KT because I can

-------------------------------------------------------------
Iverson might score 30, Melo might score 20, and the Kings will probably win because the Nuggets have no rhyme or reason to their offense.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Ron - finally broke out of his slump
Beno - 3's 3's 3's please
Salmons - he wasn't getting any calls and he missed a lot of 'gimmes'
Mikki - try to rebound moore
Brad - coming off a killer road trip

Cisco - firing blanks. just no more
Jones - there you go
Douby - wild
rest - whatever

Coach T - PLAY JUSTIN FOR ONCE please
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Kleiza gets the TDM, Anthony Carter gets LVC award, and Kings get a win.

Great thread, hopefully this game will be be as good as m hoping/expecting. We have alot of rest and that could be a good or bad thing sometimes, but for this team it is nothing but a good thing IMO. Were also getting closer and closer to Mike and Kevin returning.

 

[chelle]

Great start!

 

[Mozart]

Zzzzzz...

...zzzzzzziiiizling HOT start, wow!

 

[creAtivetfh]

they are looking great!!

 

[Fear the Putin]

ARCO magic

 

[creAtivetfh]

i guess its good for us to have 3 days off for each game

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

wow!

 

[Larry89]

Brad missed an easy one

 

[creAtivetfh]

Beno goes out and our offense goes to crap

 

[GeraldWallace#3]

In the allstar commercial is that Grant saying "oh boy"?

 

[NewArena]

WTF is this crap theus keeps doing, when we start hot he always brings in these crap lineups. We dont need to rest right now, we HAD 3 DAYS OFF!!
Douby sucks, get him the heck out of there.

exactly what i was thinking. Nobody should be tired

 

[Larry89]

Garcia and Douby are not point guards.

 

[Larry89]

yes

 

[NewArena]

Garcia and Douby are not point guards.

No way they are, i agree. But douby isnt an NBA player at all as far as im concerned.

 

[Larry89]

Dahntay Jone is a better version of quincy douby. I'm more comfortable with him handling it.

 

[NewArena]

I cant tell you how lucky we got the last minute or so of this first quarter, Just an Absolutely terrible lineup that theus threw out there after that good start.

 

[Larry89]

Nothing to lose.. might as well get the players used to each other and everyone find their roles

 

[Fear the Putin]

you just hit a 3....
now your open once again...too open

but, you drive it into a positioned man?

come on quincy

 

[NewArena]

This is the kind of passing ron is capable of, Beautiful. EVERYONE was moving in the beginning...enough to make you dizzy but in a good way. I havent seen the ball and the players move this much in three years.

 

[HighFlyingMonkey]

Man, if you guys are going to scrutinize every little mistake that a young guy makes, it's going to be a long rebuild.

 

[NewArena]

Fransisco is showing us the shooting that was advertised when he was drafted.

 

[NewArena]

Man, if you guys are going to scrutinize every little mistake that a young guy makes, it's going to be a long rebuild.

Lets have that discussion when the kings actually begin to rebuild.

 

[NewArena]

WOW we look fantastic, i odnt know about you but it is very exciting to be a kings fan right now. I have got to go to a few games this year, starting wednesday against Boston. Lets get our sellout Streak started again!

 

[Kingzrool]

Ron leads in points, assists, rebounds and steals.

 

[Fresno King]

Garcia is a spazz.

 

[Larry89]

some of the young players are trying to do too much, they really need to know their roles.

 

[NewArena]

Garcia playing way too fast right now, he needs to calm down. Were rushing and were playing at Denvers pace, that is exactly what teams like that want you to do and were slowly falling into that trap. We need to slow it down and continue to move that basketball around.

 

[Andriod_KiNg]

Lol how Salmons get those +1's is amazing.
