So refreshing to see a caliber player playing at SF again.

We'll see how Rudy's efficiency goes but his ability to create for himself is really important for this team.

So far, so good.

I'd like to see cuz get going when he re-enters. Want to see him and Rudy play well at the same time. Didn't happen last game and its something we need to make sure happens.

Especially one who's the definition of inefficient and will help us get more losses meaning better position in the lottery.

I don't think Gay will make us worse. Especially not more worse than before when we had Hayes, Salmons, Vasquez and Patterson.

lol at Thornton sulking on the bench. He's not even cheering! While Acy is towel waving and hyping up his teammates.

5 assists... 1 in second half last game... The effect of Gay and Thomas in the sane lineup?

lol at Gay's face after that offensive charge call.

I like what I am seeing from Gay, we have the perfect coach to wrangle him in and he is a really willing passer.

He takes good shots too, I guess when you are the number 1 option in Toronto it is easy for teams to D you up.

No Gray tonight? Lame.

Also, it really seems like Rudy and Cousins are on the same page both personality and basketball wise.

Toronto fan here. I like the way Gay is playing for your team. He and Cousins bring the best out of each other.

IT checking in with Cousins to see if its ok to shake hands.

Gay-Cousins could be a pretty good duo. We need that 3rd piece.

Yeah, the chemistry is starting to develop. Gay might be enjoying playing next to big not too unlike in his Memphis days.

Loved every second of that game best win of the year even better than the Dallas game.

#Cousins after a terrible first half played effective unselfish (5assists) basketball and put up a effortless 21 and 10, did agood job keeping Dwight off the block and did not allow 2nd chances.

#IT looked like a left handed Chris Paul best performance of his career imo in terms of playmaking and scoring packed into one

#Gay back to back MVP of the game performances for the Kings I really hope they don't Outlaw Gay Cousins in the NBA

#Williams good again the 3/10 FG was not a true reflection of his effectiveness since he missed like 5 of those on tip ins.

#JT solid D on Dwight had 2-3 real important blocks and moved well to get open dunks

#Acy defence on the pick n roll was unreal on one possession literally guarded 3 people and that dunk he had was NASTY

#Mclemore sucked again but that's ok he's a rookie.

He seems to thrive playing with others that have a diverse skillset. Demar's talents far too often mirrored his own, which made him somewhat redundant on a team that already wasn't too sure of its identity. With Cousins and Thomas, he has teammates who have unique skillsets that are different from his own. I'll keep an eye on how it plays out. If McLemore pans out, the last piece might be someone like Thaddeus Young. Derrick Williams may even be that piece.

SacKingZZZ · Post #19 » by **SacKingZZZ** » Mon Dec 16, 2013 2:01 am

It's really starting to look like that SG position is going to be the "crumbs" spot going forward. McLemore is a rookie indeed and it might be too much to ask that he speed up his own development or even hinder his offensive development by being a "glue" defensive player. Yeah, time to make that move for Shumpert Pete, or maybe look at another available option, just don't know who.

As a Rockets fan I can't even be upset about tonight's game. I was very impressed by so many facets of this Kings team. In Thomas & Cousins you guys have such a solid foundation for the future - the very near future, at that!

I hope that my guys look better against you the next time, but until then keep building it up!
