I'm all for it because there is a lot of talent there and he can certainly help us. He would be a much more dynamic option on offense than KK for example, if he can get it together and make it to the starting lineup. I do think if a "right" deal came along, he would be sent off.
Big win for the team. The Atlanta/Miami duo is always murder because (honestly) the clubs and women in the clubs.
Cousins took KAT out of the game on defense and then dominated whoever they threw at him on offense. However, he can't have those reactions he had. Going up into the stands could be a suspension. You could cost your team a game when you have a game to win right at that moment. It's like he has no faith that good things will happen.
Rudy playing defense in the third made a big difference. Barnes is going to get a lot of credit, but for three years Wiggins has burned Rudy in these games and Rudy finally took it to the kid in the third.

It's way too early for that stuff with a 2nd year big.

The Kings trailed by as many as 18 pts vs the Timberwolves. They had lost 112 straight when trailing by at least 18 at any point. W tonight

IMO, both of those players are quite soft and a little too perimeter oriented

I was kind of doom and gloom in that first half, but they proved me wrong big time. Guess I've just been used to the last 10 years of Kings sucky basketball. There's still some things we need to tighten up, and it's concerning we don't seem to have anyone besides Cuz/Gay that can consistently score, but this team definitely has a mentality we haven't seen since Adelman and a brief time under Malone.

I wouldn't call KAT soft but Boogie is definitely a bit more traditionally smash mouth than the other two.
He doesn't need a sports therapist. He needs to continue to get just what he's getting - support from his coaches and his teammates.

Would you trade WCS to the Warriors for McCaw?

Man, it was driving me crazy how the loose balls kept falling into the T-Wolves hands the last few minutes of that game. Most of them not earned by hustle, but by luck. The Kings would poke the ball away on defense but it'd go right to a Minnesota player. The possession where Boogie fouled out being a prime example. Barnes and Rudy poked the ball away from Wiggins, but it goes right to Dunn -- who then barely catches Cuz out of position.

Its not that he looked average its that he was going up against a better stronger version of himself, and you know Cuz being the big alpha dog that he is is going to relish any chance to go at challengers to his throne. Against other frontlines KAT can look Cousins like, so far Cousins has put the clamps down on Lamarcus and KAT.

No, DeMarcus had his way. Muhammad merely made a couple of plays.
Ya we should package him sooner than later maybe him and Ben for Marcus smart.
Hell no

Speaking of, as I am listening to the Phoenix Suns broadcast crew, Eddie Johnson brings up that fact that Marquise Chriss had to go to a Sports Therapist for fouling out three straight games while he was attending Washington. Whether it helped him or not, I don't know...but I just thought it could be a helpful tactic.

All ready talking WCS trades? Come on now...isn't this the exact thing we don't want to do? continue Kings tradition and trade our draft picks within three years before even giving them sometime to develop.

Just want to send a big fat EL OH EL to everyone crying about trading Gay in this thread. Yeah we need to ship his 22ppg 2bpg ass out of here and get a real 2nd scorer! I really just don't understand some of you. Its like all you do is concentrate on his two or three bad shots a game and then conveniently forget about his overall efficient game, solid defense and clutch play in the 4th. The guy has been fantastic this year and we won't be sniffing the playoffs if we trade him. He is by far our second best player.
Oh come on. You've been around here long enough to know how it works. There always has to be a small but vocal contingency that wants to ship out a certain player.
