I have nothing witty or statistical to add to the conversation. I just want to say I remember the days when we took care of business at home and winning tonight would be our 4th straight. I hope to see another game where we keep the turnovers low and play solid defense no matter who is on the floor.

Cousins is officially out for tonight

He has had some success, sure. But mostly because Cuz had an off night or was pressing too hard. Kinda like how the Kings guards had some success against Curry last time they played -- it was more Curry having an off night and being tentative than anything else.
Still, even if Bogut was able to defend him well, my point was that the Warriors would have to keep him on the floor in order for it to happen. Then they aren't quite as good on the offensive end.

Who cares about the Warriors? We're playing the T-Wolves tonight
That's the real key. Bogut is a crucial part to their team and success, but there small-ball lineup is well on it's way to being one of the most effective 5-man units in NBA history. Curry-Klay-Iggy-Barnes-Green has a net rating of +70.3 in 56.3 minutes. Which is absolutely absurd and would actually kind of be hard to duplicate in a video game, much less real life. For them to lose, you basically have to force them not to use that lineup and hope Steph has an off game. In which case, you're still going against the best offensive team in the game and a top 3 defensive team with a top 3 defensive anchor.

Agreed! If the Kings are anticipating tomorrow's game as much as we are, we will lose a game we need, and absolutely should win (even without DMC).

No Rubio tonight

I'm not quite sure why fans are so eagerly anticipating a likely ass whooping.
Be cool to beat them, but as a sub-.500 team i'd rather see any other team in the NBA on the schedule at this point. We need wins. Teams on historic winning streaks are hard places to find them.

Ricky Rubio out tonight and... Minny 0-16 when RR does not suit up. Ageless wonder Andre Miller starting tonight at PG.

Hasn't Rubio missed more than 16 games though? Nonetheless, I like this stat...

Right?!
At this point I'll be happy if we don't allow another 37 pt quarter from Klay. And speaking of big quarters....Curry just dropped a 19/6 1st quarter on Phoenix.
If we were at full health, and playing up to our potential, I'd say bring em on.... But Cuz is banged up and we've been underachieving this season..
So uh....Yeah, between PACE and our wonderful D, I think we're about to drop 125 on the Warriors tomorrow....And still lose by at least 20.

Why is WCS guarding KG from 30 feet out?

Koufus always seems to rush his shots to me. Precluding that last one of course
