ACEE!!

 

[cuad]

omg, that dunk was nasty.

 

[Tetsujin]

Acy can jump

 

[rainmaker]

I went into the kitchen and must have missed this. What happened???

Rewind it to the end of the 1st if you have a DVR. Was laying on the court next to Cuz, rubbing Cuz's shoe and Cuz didn't appear to find it amusing at all.

 

[Glenn]

Who's that player who dribbled and finished left?

Ben something or other.

 

[The_Jamal]

Gray and Acy are just crushing souls with their screens right now. Wow!

 

[Rockmeister]

I like this team on the floor right now.

 

[Entity]

Ok Keith smart used to get sucked into good play by the bench by leaving them out there after the heat wore off. I hope Malone doesn't make that mistake here.

 

[Tetsujin]

Gray probably sets the best screens in Sacramento since Brad Miller was randomly smashing dudes in the backcourt

Thanks. I'll check it out after the game.

Acy can jump

Long arms and big hands...and yes, he gets up as well. Plays much more 'actively long', than his height

 

[Uncia03]

Great stretch for Acy.
Two good screens to free up Jimmer/DWill for buckets as well as the screen-roll and emphatic one-hand dunk.

I still remember being at a game when Brad set what has to have been the nastiest pick ever. Don't remember who ran into it, but I remember you could almost actually see the little birdies floating around his head.

Aaron Gray sets good screens. Chuck Fatass did too

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Aaron Gray needs to play.

I'm not giving him all the credit, but he is shutting down the paint, setting great screens, working on the glass, etc. He makes the team better. Can't put my finger on why, but the team plays better every time he's in there.

Barkley or Hayes?

 

[Bibbilicious]

Lets just rename Gray "The Wall"

Brad had an absolute gift for setting picks in the backcourt that would absolutely level the other team's guards. I remember a lot of other teams not liking it but I loved it.

 

[spudfan]

Plz Malone, don't leave the bench in too long again.

 

[SacKings2002NBAChampions]

THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR

Bench production and effort on defense
The fact that we can't rebound is still a worry but the effort is there tonight
Now just consistency

 

[Entity]

Ok starter time.

I think he is just one of those players who really knows their role and gives nothing but good effort. He may not fill up the stat sheet but the things he does are absolutely crucial to the team succeeding. I like him a lot.

 

[cuad]

on the floor foul? LOL

 

[Entity]

Ok gray shooting sky hooks now. Ok Malone time to bring starters back in. Don't make me hold your hand like a child

 

[Kingsfan23]

I like bench staggered and no all bench personally although guys have brought energy

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Jimmer is so close to being alright. Just not all the way there, though. For every good play there is at least one poor play.

Did you see the video about Gay, Gray and Acy getting the word about being traded right before the Lakers game? Gray seems to have been very popular with the Raptors...and I think he may be the surprise of the trade.

Because he doesn't demand shots, but is motivated to do all the dirty work to get everyone else open looks. Valuable backup

 

[Tetsujin]

We might want to put Cuz and Gay back in pretty soon

 

[VF21]

I think it's actually closer than 1 and 1. I'd say 2 good for 1 bad.
