Did Willie play in our previous game against OKC? It would be cool if he was the difference between a win and a loss.

He played in garbage time lat game. Assume Karl will likely refuse to play him unless the games score doesn't matter.

No Durant today.

They could also play without Westbrook & Ibaka and we still can lose this game. Durant or not, this is a game the Kings shouldn't be expecting to be cake-walk.

That would not be a good look for Karl after he made public comments asking for more defensive minded players.

I never said it would be a cake walk, I was simply pointing out that Durant is not playing which is a fact.

I know you didn't say that. I'm just pointing out that the Kings shouldn't take this game lightly, that's all.

Yeah, I think we're at the point where no game should be taken lightly. If everyone brought the energy and effort Casspi did every night, we'd be a scary squad.

If they really want to get this back on the road, it starts here. No excuses.

Jones said WCS conditioning is an issue, 20 min max. This is the concern I had with this kid - work ethic and motor. After not being in shape in camp no reason not to have done some cardio the last few weeks when your hand is busted

Lot of Acy Ducy tonight

Feel like when Rondo got the ball in the corner for a second time, he should have called Cousins over again. Instead, he took a three.

Rudy got old this year. He is blowing dunks left and right.

I hate how that one Thunder commentator can't get his plurals right.

His partner just did tho. First I've heard that from a Thunder commentator.

It's tough watching this team. Early 5-2 lead and now of course the Thunder have control

teerfour+40LG · Post #16 » by **teerfour+40LG** » Tue Jan 5, 2016 1:22 am

Yikes, we gave up 21 points in 6 minutes. Good teams aim for 12.

Kings2013 · Post #17 » by **Kings2013** » Tue Jan 5, 2016 1:26 am

The game is over with 5 minutes left in the first

TV off

Get rid of Karl

Good thing he took Q out, that fixed it right up there.

And I want to just point this out for all the effort mongers out there, they are playing very hard on defense right now, there is just nothing there. They clearly have no real system. Early on they randomly switched, played off the pick and roll, and at times doubled. They seem to have a random pick and roll attack. That won't get it done, no matter how hard you try.

That would have been nice, but he missed one defensive rotation. I think it's right back to clank city from here on out. :lol:

Dan Crawford to Cousins: Wtf, why are you complaining? You just got a whistle.
