The Sacramento Kings nearly finished their initial road trip with a perfect record. They haven’t found the same success during their first homestand.A matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night could help the Kings end that four-game set with a victory.Sacramento won two of three as it opened the season on the road, starting with a 117-116 victory over Minnesota on Oct. 27, but have dropped two of three since returning to Arco Arena.

This should be an easy one, but then again we have Paul Westphal as our coach. We need to give Donte some minutes. I want to see more of Dale and Cousins together. Other than that, we should be fine.

I really expect some energy tonight after that let down Saturday. I just want to see at least some indication of forming a consistent a legit lineup. This pulling crap out of your butt thing needs to start to come down a notch or two. Experimenting is good but at some point you have to realize the most beneficial thing for the future of your franchise.

No fancy game thread?

Minnesota just gave the Lakers a run for their money, so I expect a better effort from them than what they've been doing so far this season. I think we'll win, but it won't be easy.

I would really love to see Cousins have a break out game. I'm ready for this kid to explode on somebody just so we know that it's possible if nothing else.

I'm sorry, but I hate it when other people say we're gonna blow teams out. Although I would love it if we did.. you still gotta think, this is the NBA. Don't take any team for granted. Especially when your not considered one of the top teams.
We gotta go into this game with a fighters mentality and fight hard for the "W." I don't care if the Twolves are considered one of the worse teams in the NBA this season. We gotta play them like their one of the best. Any team in the NBA can beat another team in the NBA. We just gotta go into this game hungrier then the other Twolves. And I hope that's the case in this one. Lets GO SacTown!! Beat Minny.

Does our team even have a half court offense?
I think Cousins and Daly can work against this team.

This is the lineup I want to see start from here on out. I think once they get some chemistry together they will make it tough on teams.

Yeah, this is my personal favorite lineup too (either insert Casspi or Greene in the SF position). I hope PW give minutes to these guys together often.

This team is much better when Cousins is on the floor.

Beasley has all of the sudden been possessed by the souls of every great basketball player that has ever existed.

Beasley just on fire right now. Just keep pounding it down low and pace the game like they've been doing. Much better pacing when Cousins is on the floor.

I always liked Beasley. Even back in Miami.
But memo to the Kings, DEFEND HIM!
