[Game] Timberwolves @ Kings - 3/21/13

well nothing new tonight guys. all things we see on a nightly basis:
-John Salmons played way more minutes than anyone else
-Isaiah took more shots than anyone else on the team
-Cole Train with the best +/- of anyone on the team
-Hayes/Jimmer with the worst +/-
-Tyreke beasting when he actually got the ball

I was about to ask if anyone knew who took the most shots on the team lol. It's a shame Demarcus and Tyreke don't get more shot attempts.
 
Haven't watched the game yet (you can thank March Madness for that). Am recording the replay, so will catch it tomorrow. But, in looking at the box score, I must say.......1-19 from the land of 2+1 ain't gonna win you many games, no matter how good you are.....

Grant: "He hasn't committed a foul though this year."

Love the slant dude, keep being a pro.
Yeah, nothing like passive-aggressive digs against one of the home team players by the professional announcer. This petty crap by Napear just shows that he's every bit as immature as Cousins, just in a different way. I think even Jerry Reynolds is getting tired of hearing it. Grant needs to check himself.

I don't think Grant is going to last long after we get new owners, whether it's in Seattle or Sacramento. Maloofs can take him with them.

It's a figure of speech that is used a lot in the game of basketball and I think it's appropriate for DeMarcus for obvious reasons as it is for many other players around the league.

Also, would you agree that saying Grant is "every bit as immature as Cousins" is a bit extreme on your part?

I wouldn't.
Grant is presumably the adult here, which means he's lived long enough to know better than the 20 year old without that experience.

Yeah, I don't really like Grant that much either.
I'm not a huge Grant fan either but not because of his opinions. For the most part, I commend him for telling it like it is. I just think he has the personality of a rock and he is very awkward with his callers.
 
So making a cliched figure of speech is the same as 16 technical fouls, getting suspended multiple times, going after Sean Elliot, etc?

Makes perfect sense.
I remember a couple of years ago when Grant got mad at Jerry for kicking him under the table and Grant elbowed Jerry right in the back of the head. It was shocking and entertaining at the same time.
