Kings @ Grizzlies...2/20, starting now

Post #1 » by **KingInExile** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 1:04 am

Man, I thought this was a home game! Oh well...that probably wouldn't have changed much.

Nearly half the roster was moved over the last couple of days, meaning that this Kings team has a dramatically different look. Maybe, just maybe, this different look will bring more determination, more energy and more better basketball. But we will first have to make it through a short-handed game tonight (only 9 guys available).

WOW. Im watching this game, and there is NO way the Grizzlies stay in Memphis. I thought Arco was bad.

Seattle Grizzlies, it could work.

There's Grizzlies in Washington right? Yea, I think it could work.

Kind of feels like a slow game, but at least it's slow enough so we can keep up with them.

Wow, Darko with two strong spin moves against JT/Hawes. That looked nice to be honest.

It would almost be like a homecoming for them, seeing as how the franchise started out just 100 miles up the road in Vancouver, BC. However...if they did move to Seattle, they would be the Sonics (the city retained the rights to that name and got to keep the Sonics history).

Kenny Thomas....

Wow...we really do have a short bench tonight. Very early sightings of Donte Green and Kenny Thomas!

Nice set up by Martin for Greene for the buzzer beating three. (Heh, I think Greene has done that last game.)

Did I just see Thomas taking a turnaround jumper?

Wow...only 9 guys available to play tonight on the road...and we're up by 4 at the half?!?!

To be honest, I am really digging the way this team is playing without Miller and Salmons on the floor.

Donte Greene looked pretty good with his minutes at PF.

I would like to see a franchise back in seattle...not the Kings though.

I have posted on here in forever...

Nonetheless,
I have a good feeling about this game - the Grizz are coughing up the ball left and right but we actually look energetic on (dare I say it?) defense tonight. Not to mention Martin has it goin' on so far.

Strong minutes from the Donte, JT, & Hawes, too.

Can we play with 8 every night? Alot of PT for young guys, and good quality play from those guys.

Donte Greene: 3 3s and 4 blks in 13 minutes so far. I hope we can continue to get him minutes, even with Noci starting and Garcia also playing the 3.

Unfortunately those 3 treys for Greene has put in him Antoine Walker mode...he's jacking up the ball every time he touches it beyond the arc now.

Who needs Marvin when we have Greeeeeeene!

Yeah, I'd like to see Donte put it on the floor and show us the scoring ability that we all heard about when he got shipped to Sacto.

He did have a good put back there at the end of the period...
