Another home game. I'm forecasting some severe bouts of Arco Thunder, starting at about 7 p.m. and lasting for at least a couple of hours.

LET'S GO KINGS!!!

I really hope the Kings bring it to the Warriors this time.
After multiple games of NOT abusing the smallball that inevitably gets trotted out, what are the chances that Smart will stay big and insist his team punish them down low if given the opportunity?

Smart had 2 days to prepare before the last Warrior game, and 1 day this time.
Since he coached them last year, and has played against them 3 times already this year, I'd hope he has some idea how to fashion a gameplan to beat them this go-round.
It should just be up to the players to execute it.

But I want to see some plays that are designed to take advantage of the big man advantage (if the Kings get it).
If I don't even see them try the plays, I will blame Smart.

Salmons' and Tyreke's defense will probably be critical. If Monta and Curry have as bad as game as last time, there's not much excuse for the Kings to lose. Well, unless they have 13 more TO's than the Warriors, like last time. *puke in mouth*
 
I want Salmons to come out confident but not overly aggressive where he is trying to force a repeat POR performance. I hope he lets the game come to him.
 
What a great first 5 minutes. We're playing faster and stronger than the Warriors right now and it shows. I love how hard we're pushing the ball up the court
 
its early... but everyone is looking pretty good so far... Cousins is a beast... Salmons, Evans ... looking good so far.... good movement... wouldn't it be nice to finally blow someone out this year? and have it be the GSW's
 
Thornton HAS to make those wide open looks.

Some great looking basketball on the offensive end, now just got to stop somebody
 
Not only nice to see is going through Cousins on the block, but also nice to see multiple passing lanes open up. Guys are spacing the floor much better.
 
Like Cousins being more consistent with staying down on the block than usual, and getting rewarded with the ball.
 
Is anyone else's NBA League Pass not working? It's not letting me log me and is saying I don't have access.
 
I don't mind the open threes - though, hey, it would be nice if he had hit any of them. But he probably should have given it up on that last break.

I know shooters shoot, and I was being somewhat sarcastic. Just wish he passed up a few shots to get others going. Everyone else now is.
 
Does Thornton need to shoot every f'ing time he touches it?

He hasn't really forced any shots tonight other than that last fastbreak probably. He's just in a slump shooting the ball right now.

Tyreke had a rough shooting quarter, but he played a great floor general. Only down by 1 with him/Thornton being 4-13 is a good place to be in
 
warriors are making 3's ... were not yet... everything was pretty good offense actually looks fluid... i like that we are looking to go to cousins on the block. good stuff minus Evans on the last possession
