Sacramento Kings vs. Houston Rockets

NEXT!....

(discuss below)

Cuz should dominate the small Rockets frontline and needs to if we want to win this. We'll also have to find a way to guard them.

Beno Udrih is still allergic to defense. What was that? Letting Lowry walk in there like that...Anyway, I like the starting line up: Udrh, Thornton, Garcia, Cousins, Dalembert. Both Casspi and Greene have really had their chances and haven't made much of a case for the starting spot.

Too risky to have cuz in with 2 pf's.

*Nvm it was wrong on scorecenter app.

If we keep Sam on Scola, I think we should be okay in this game. They'll be reliant on their perimeter guys, and if Martin is shooting like this, I just don't know where their offense will come from.

Glad to see Westphal pulling Dalembert after that garbage post-up move. Little things like allowing Dalembert to go one-on-one have to contribute to our record. That Dalembert travel got turned into a Lowry three.

DMC is schooooling the old Brad Miller...

Cousins looks like he's trying to get 50 out there tonight. I'm not mad. They can't guard him. But we can't guard anybody.

Kings playing well but are losing cause HOU making all their ft's. Need to stop fouling.

we are losing because of bad turnovers and trans D break downs

With the way Thornton has been playing, who do you guys see as the odd man out when Evans returns?

Francisco/Donte.....

I meant starting line-up, Udrih/Evans or Evans/Thornton

I could see the Kings try the 3-guard lineup. Udrih/Thornton/Evans (Evans as the 3)

UGH.

Westphal is the only coach that I can remember changing up his offense at halftime when it was the only thing working for him the first. Used that size advantage in the 1st half and in the second he's taken the bigs out of the paint and based the entirety of the offense around guard penetration.

I like Beno - but his defenses is pretty bad. I'd like to see him come off the bench. I always thought he'd make a good 6th or 7th man. Beno can give us energy/offense off the bench - while Reke and Thornton can help improve our perimeter defense in the starting rotation.

Evans/Thornton/Cisco is the absolute best lineup this team can put out on the floor. Anything else is a travesty.

I stepped out with 6 minutes to go in the second quarter and Cousins had 18. This game sure went to hell since then.

You say that as if it's a conscious decision on his part, and not the team losing focus and not running anything in particular.
