Wolves @ Kings game thread

[piksi]

I expect a tough one.
I think I will have to go with Kings on this one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

We will be outrebounded badly but they will turn it ower tice as much

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

CW - if Pedja and Mike shoot 50 % he will get a tripple double. He will do his PG thing again.

Pedja will yet again boycott rebounding. He will not get neutralized by wolves but he will get neutralized by kings 2 man game. He will not get an assist frim Bibby again. Bibby will boycott him at least once during a fast break.

Bibby wil get "murdered" by their guards tonight. He will not outrebound Pedja. He will hit 5 threes

DC - will have a double double

Brad - will have the best Kings FG %.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Bobby will continue his recent good run.

Tag - will have his best game as a King

Darius will struggle tonight. He will be in foul trouble all night.

Rest of the bench will not have any influence
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
RA - will finally outcoach somebody. He will make sure that at least one of the 3 main scorer is in the game at all times. He will not substitute a player who is hot at that particular moment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Garnett will have 15 + FTA. He will travel at least twice. He will not get punched in the jaw but Peeler. He will have 5 dunks.
Hoiberg will have a good game.
Olwokandi will suck yet again.
Hassel will test the quality of Pedjas jersey all night long.
Madsen will be annoying as usual.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

[bballagrl24]

whatever we do, we need to keep hoiberg guarded at all times cuz he torched us w/ his threes in the playoffs

A fun, inciteful read, filled with piksimisms.

I have got to be me

 

[bibbyweb]

Cassell will ***** with the officials about fouls and Spreewell and Hudson will look as foolish as ever with their hairstyles.
And OTag will put out another block like the one against Yao on Garnett and will have a great game.

 

[SacTownKid]

I expect Bibby to torch the Twolves tonight!!! Has to turn it around sooner or later, but tonight is the night.

 

[VF21]

...Spreewell and Hudson will look as foolish as ever with their hairstyles.

Ah, yes...the Pippi Longstocking look.

 

[bballagrl24]

Ah, yes...the Pippi Longstocking look.

lol.....yea...they look like girls running up and down the court.

 

[fakie]

is peja doing as well as his stats look?

 

[bibbyweb]

is peja doing as well as his stats look?

he sure is

 

[4cwebb]

rebounding again terrible...about minus 5 on the offensive glass.

 

[Variant]

Wolves really hurting us in the rebounding and hustle department.

 

[fakie]

bibby's been carrying the team this quarter.
peja is doing well,
i expect webber to get hot anytime

GＯ　ＫＩＮＧＳ！

 

[Variant]

Great time for a great rebound, Brad... 61-60 at the half.

 

[piksi]

We shoot 56 % at home and are down by 1

 

[Bricklayer]

We shoot 56 % at home and are down by 1

That's what will happen when the opponent gets 49 FGA to your 37. Rebounding = just embarrassing.

 

[OptimusRhyme]

So do you guys seriosuly think the Kings have enough to win a championship from what we have seen so far this year?

 

[Bricklayer]

Peja is playing a great offensive game, but in the last couple of minutes his lack of hustle and boarding has really pissed me off. What exactly does he use those muscles for anyway?

 

[Variant]

Not so far... but there's a lon way to go.

This game is going to come down to who makes the fewest mistakes. Both teams are shooting well, but thus far the Wolves have been able to capitalize on our silly mistakes just enough to stay ahead.

Hopefully we'll be able to turn things up a notch in the 4th... I have a feeling KG will.

 

[Variant]

Once again a costly mistake. Kings finally get a stop, but throw it away and the Wolves get a layup.

 

[Variant]

Two stops in a row... let's capitalize guys!

 

[Variant]

Whew... we worked hard the last 40 secons there and it finally pays off.

Roll that effort over into the 4th please!!

 

[Variant]

Darn, Wolves come out with the hustle We just can't seem to get the lead!

 

[Variant]

Every mistake..... argh! The Wolves look determined to win this.

 

[Viking]

To be honest, since 2001-02 I have not felt like the Kings were "champions in the making". But then again I felt the Spurs were last year. We know how that turned out. They haven't "looked" like champions.

I hope what I'm saying makes sense.

 

[Variant]

Kings gave me some hope there for a second... but Minnesota was clearly the better team tonight. A good early-season litmus test though to see where we're at.

I see your point. I'm kind of the opposite. I go into every year feeling like we could be the champions if every played out right & we stayed healthy. This year is the same for me. IF everything came together at the right point & we stayed healthy I think we have as much talent as most other teams & could pull it out. Those are big IFs though.

 

[Variant]

Our rebounding problems will prevent us from advancing in the playoffs too far (injuries aside of course). Fortunately, this is a correctable problem...

 

[bibbyweb]

Someone needs to remind the kings that they are supposed to rebound and defend

 

[Variant]

Defensively we were pretty good tonight. Offensively we were quite good tonight. Rebounding was poor as usual, but overall we played well enough to beat most teams. The Wolves just hit their stride tonight...

The Kings seem to have a knack for turning opportunities into momentum for other teams--I have a bad feeling this game may ignite the Wolves who up until now have been struggling.
