Wolves @ Kings Game Thread

[AriesMar27]

how in the hell did this happen?

 

[piksi]

Does anyone remember when was the last time that Kings had a lead in a game ?

 

[HndsmCelt]

did Pedja just fight for a rebound?

 

[kennadog]

*sigh* We suck.

The last game they won.

Kings dont like to have a lead in the first half... They like they play catch up and try to win the game during the last 5 minutes of the game.

Rebounding

26 - 12

Wolves

 

[KP]

Outrebounded 26-12? What was The T-Wolves reb. ranking coming into this game?

 

[D-Mass]

This is just not a very good basketball team.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well considering the Kings were out rebounded 26-12 only being down by 12 is prety impresive...

 

[piksi]

*sigh* We suck.

understatement

 

[bozzwell]

wow... this team isnt very good......

I know, and they are still up by 12. What does that say about the Kings?

Honestly, I am way too depressed to lok it up

Min is 30th in rebounding. http://www.nba.com/statistics/sortable_team_statistics/sortable2.html?cnf=1&prd=1

oh... so thats the plan this year, i get it..... so that way they dont give away their leads..... cause bakley always said that the kings would let teams back into games.... this way they dont..... and a little more

Minni is 30th(last) in the league in rebounds/per game, 24th in Opp rebounds/per game, and 29th in Reb differential. The rebounding effort by our team is unacceptable.

Grant said that Wolves are "not a good rebounding team" in the 1st. Presumably he looked up the stats.

I did not need to know that

God Brad really is a hick...

 

[KP]

Brad is such a Hayseed

OUCH

 

[Kings241]

How could RA be so calm just sitting down there watching the team fall apart. Did you guys see Minni's coach Casey. The guy was standing up the whole time yelling at his team even though they were leading the game the whole time.

Blow it up and start from scratch. Nucleus of Bibby-Miller-Peja is not getting job done!

 

[BigSong]

riding quads is Brad's idea of working out over the summer I guess....

I'm with you. Package all three in an offer for KG. Could Minni refuse?

 

[bibbinator]

Last games we won were just before peja came back.

Hate to say it, but the aggressiveness of the team suffers when he is on the floor. I'm only reading the PBP here so I don't have the full story for this game, but I think RA should bench him for the night based on what I've read so far.

 

[Kings241]

so who thinks the Kings will actually win this game. Honestly I hope the Kings get blown out at home so we can have some coach and roster changes because im sick of this team.

He has actually played alright, except that when he's in the game we are even weaker at rebounding than usual. We are just getting killed on the glass and we let people waltz into the lane for layups. Add in a few second chance opportunities, and we're getting destroyed.

 

[kennadog]

Peja is not the reason we are losing this game. The whole team is the reason we are losing this game. (Well, except Bonzi's playing hard as usual.)

I am sure McHale is watching this game too, so you tell me: could they accept it?
