Ryan Anderson always torches us. Portland is breathing down our neck. Utah keeps winning games. We are in a lot of trouble.

So here we are in mid January and games are starting to have meaning. If the Kings want this to continue then we need these next two W's.

Love Reke personally, good guy who wanted to stay. But IMO maybe the biggest disappointment in Sac history, I was expecting possibly top 5 after 20/20/5

As always we don't catch injury breaks. I heard AD might've been out.

I've just noticed that they're getting this game started by trying to get Rudy Gay going instead of Ben McLemore. I kinda like that.

Kings not playing optimum for old man Karl IMO. Better coach could do a lot more with this roster

Bad matchup so far. The Kings are awful defending pick and roll and the Pelicans are all pick and roll, all the time. :banghead:

Cousins outside game is on or off, not consistent at all

Karl is a past prime coach that is a hindrance to the team

They really need to stop playing off the wings to help on middle pick and roll. It hasn't helped all year, and it won't start helping now. I just don't get it.

Yea it's Karl's fault. How DARE we expect grown men to be responsible for their own behavior. If Cousins murders a man, it should be Karl going to prison :nod:

Man, when is it going to be apparent Koufos can't guard pick and roll bigs? He'd be better off putting Gay there. Why no Acy? Why no more Willie? Karl, you make your own bed sometimes I swear.

What chance does this team have against Utah tomorrow?

What chance is this team capable of a playoff run?

What chance will I still be in this arena 10 mins from now?

What chance will they fire Karl given all the pressure to give him this full season?

Kings defense can't carry them when their offense is off.

Apparently the physical, interior offensive team we saw was just a temporary thing. They aren't even running the same sets they were the last couple of games. Wow.

Return to Sacramento Kings
