Amazing defense at the end there

That's what it looks like when we don't leave open 3pt shooters playing conservative

Rudy, Rondo and Demarcus all have extremely elite wingspans... All around a 7-8 inch difference compared to height

When we have slick rotating defense we can shut down any team

Glad to hear it, especially with Atlanta coming up.

 

[KingsFanatic]

Okay, so where's the poster who said the other night that "the Kings would be a better team without Cousins"?... You know who you are!

 

[Blob]

I'd go out on a limb but not really and say the layup by B-Mac to give Kings 102-101 shot was the biggest shot of his career! Kings did a lot well to overcome 19 TOs and allow 15-31 on 3s (48%) to Raptors. Usually when you throw the ball away that much and give 45 points on 3s you lose.

 

[celtics33]

Yeah, WTF was that all about. He could have broken a hip...

"that" was all about the difference between participating and winning instinct... I told you already in pre-season, VF... now you're watching it with your own eyes... night in, night out.

The selfish "walking-cancer in sneakers" they claimed to have seen in DAL, you know...

WCS has only a 6" longer wingspan than his height.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Great win. Kept their composure when they were down in the 4th and played some great defense (at the end, not the rest of the game)

 

[gunks]

I'm sad I didn't get to watch this game... but following the box score was exciting....

Ps: called DMC dominating!

Pps: that was ironical..... OF COURSE DMC is going to dominate. That is what he does.

 

[jcwkings]

Kings have a big three in Cuz, Gay, Rondo and a strong supporting cast in WCS, Collison, Omri, Marco, 2K, Ben coming on now and even Acy and Seth have been productive in their stints. Acys defense has been sensational the last two games. Very agile at covering pick and rolls.

The thing that makes Cousins great is opponents are keying their entire defensive scheme to stop him....and they can't. And he has a counter to how ever he is defended. There is no answer. If it wasn't for Curry he could win the scoring title this year.

You really don't get me, do you?

It was a joke, son. I've been a fan of Rondo's for a long time. You're preaching to the choir when you talk to me about his value.

 

[Im Still Ballin]

WCS has only a 6" longer wingspan than his height.

Haha yeah

He legit plays like a small forward mobility wise

 

[Im Still Ballin]

I'd even go on a limb to say WCS moves better than most small forwards

 

[VF21]

I think you're making a very valid point. The Ben McLemore they just interviewed after the game was not the same kid we've seen the past couple of years. He's developing confidence and he's learning what it's like to play the game with guys who are totally serious, and not just dancing around the court to collect a paycheck. If Ben keeps this up, he's gonna be just who we need him to be - and with Rondo and DMC on his side, he's got a lot going for him.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

You know what's even better about this win? It looks like the 49ers had the week off, so there's half a chance that they might actually talk about the Kings on KHTK tomorrow!


Ah, who am I kidding. On a "football Monday"? Of course they won't...

It seems we're both missing the sense of irony in each other's posts here... btw, thanks for the "label of youth" (son)... It's been a while I didn't hear someone addressing me like that

 

[Entity]

Yeah I thought the layup by Ben and his assist to belinelli and his three were big statements. Statement is Rudy, Rondo, and Cuz will have you in every game. If the others step up and make plays then you win most of them.

 

[Glaivenomics]

That 223rd ESPN ranked player may be alright after all.

 

[Telemachus]

some guy was diving on the floor for a steal with one minute to play on the clock... after playing 48, 48, 43, 44...

If I didn't know better, I would think you were a Rondo fan.

I've been a fan of the NBA since 1963. That should give you at least an idea of how really, really, really old I am.

He doesn't seem to be such a stupid early round fantasy pick any more, either.

 

[Glaivenomics]

He doesn't seem to be such a stupid early round fantasy pick any more, either.

I picked him up in the 7th round of my draft (where triple-double get you a bonus 15 points) and got literally laughed at by a room full of blazers fans.

 

[celtics33]

If I didn't know better, I would think you were a Rondo fan.

For as much as I have become fond of the Kings, I confess I wish his trade to DAL was just a bad dream so that he could still be running the floor of the TD Garden wearing green.
The guy is a pleasure to watch playing basketball. that's it.. and I'm so looking forward to see the Kings in the PO this year.

I bleed green since 1965...

I hope you are right about the playoffs. I felt like the Kings should win at least 45 games prior to the season. That looks to be good enough for the playoffs at the moment.

I got him as a free agent to go along with DMC and Westbrook.

WCS has only a 6" longer wingspan than his height.

He needs to work on that in the off season.

We haven't won a game like this in years. This is the type of game last season (and many before it) we could have deemed to be a loss by the time the third quarter came to a close. Color me super encouraged
