[Game] Suns @ Kings - 10/17/13

[KingMilz]

The only way I see IT starting in PG on game 1 is if GV gets injured

hopefully god will be kind to us this season and not allow that

FYI - We NEVER use the "I" word in conjunction with one of our own. Never.

I don't like IT, and I don't like Thornton. That goes for Salmons too. They're too selfish of players and ball movement stagnates when they're on the court. I really hope at least one of them is gone by the all-star break.

Word from press row:

Kayte is wonderful (they're sitting four seats down from her)
My granddaughter's favorite player (Isaiah) smiled and waved at her during half-time warm-up.
Carmichael Dave is their new hero.

My most sincere apologies! I will make sure it will never happen again

Depends what we can get back for me. I don't wanna give em away since they would be very useful bench players I think.

 

[KingMilz]

OUTLAW!!!! WAR OUTLAW!!!

Should get them to try and interview one of the players after the game. They are in press row after all.

 

[Tetsujin]

Well that helps the Suns PG decision a bit.

Gortat has never been able to hang with Cousins. If i recall correctly, he put up a 40 pt game against him last year?

There was one game where he destroyed Cousins though. Think it went both ways last season or the previous one

 

[Tetsujin]

The good news for Jimmer fans: He's looked better than MT tonight.
The bad news for Kings fans: MT's looked godawful this entire preseason

 

[spudfan]

Suns shooting 53% Kings shooting 43%. Kings winning by 11. That's something you don't normally see. Pays to have a big man who can get the easy buckets and get to the line!

Yeah him and Jermaine O Neal killed Cousins once last year he was like 1-12 from the field

 

[KingMilz]

Wow Bledsoe is TOUGH he got up after being trucked down like it was nothing

 

[mac]

Can somebody tell IT to pass the ball?

 

[Tetsujin]

The Suns strategy for defending Cuz appears to be waiting until he gets right next to the basket and then fouling the hell out of him.

Game was in December of last year, when Boogie was in mid meltdown.

[cuad]

I love Jimma

 

[Sac.Kings]

I am starting to get tired of IT and his endless dribbling

 

[Bricklayer]

Kings bench tonight, the entire bench, has combined for ZERO total assists.

 

[mac]

I am starting to get tired of IT and his endless dribbling

He's channeling his inner MT. Gets the ball, chucks a 3 instead of running the offense.

 

[spudfan]

Well I don't think he dribbled before he shot after that jump ball.

 

[Tetsujin]

Nothing better than Hack-a-Cuz in the preseason. Jeebus Phoenix, try not to kill our guy, will ya?

 

[miltonap]

Depends what we can get back for me. I don't wanna give em away since they would be very useful bench players I think.

Well yea. Good thing is they have some value. Well not Salmons, but the other two do

 

[Sac.Kings]

That was IT's fault. He needs to be the first one back on defense.

 

[BLNINJA #81]

GV is clearly better than IT, clearly..

 

[cuad]

Isaiah should be on the bench after this timeout.

 

[mac]

I hope Jimmer doesn't get pulled. This Suns run has been the result of the other guys turning the ball over, chucking bad shots leading to easy fast break opportunities the other way.

 

[Sac.Kings]

GV is clearly better than IT, clearly..

One is a PG, the other isn't.

 

[spudfan]

GV is clearly better than IT, clearly..

As a starter I think so too. I think IT will help more if he plays when Cousins is on the bench. He is taking too many ill-advised shots when better options are available.
