Very smooth... Can do pretty much everything... Very good scorer... Nice rebounding skills... Will block some shots... Quick hands... Good defensive player when he's into it... Quite an athlete... High basketball IQ.

The Sacramento Kings felt they had two talented options at point guard in rookie Tyreke Evans and Beno Udrih, but the emergence of Sergio Rodriguezhas provided additional depth.The Kings look to complete a perfect four-game homestand Wednesday when they face the Indiana Pacers, who may switch up their lineup in hopes of avoiding a third straight loss.

Sacramento (8-8) has bounced back from a four-game losing streak Nov. 17-23 during which it gave up 108.5 points per game. The Kings have followed an 0-3 road trip by winning three in a row at home while holding each opponent under 100 points. They are coming off a 112-96 victory over New Orleans on Sunday.

Great stat, donte greene started the last 3 games :wink:

Should be a good game, hopefully Murphy doesn't go off on them like last year

Anyone else think Tyreke will have a great game following his award yesterday? I can seem him putting up 25+ tonight.

Granger will have a big game. Players like that don't like losing 3X in a row. Scary time to play Indiana if you ask me. STILL, should be a win if we play like we can.

Yup...Reke is looking like he's ready to play tonight!

Unfortunately, so is Granger.

Well offensively, we need to get somebody besides Tyreke going. Both of Spencer's shots were tip-ins, and Jason made a nice J, but somebody else is going to have to create something at some point.

The natural thing would seem to be putting Beno in, but I think the team (understandably) doesn't want to give up the mismatch we currently have on Ford.

Defensively, I'd like to try somebody else on Granger, and I'd like to see Spencer body up Hibbert a little bit better.

Spacing has been bad this game

Really sloppy play so far. I think the tempo is a little too fast for us.

Tyreke = unguardable

Where's the defense!...Six turnovers in the first quarter... Jesus Christ.

Well we need to cool it on the turnovers more than anything. The D could defnitely be better, but I'd also like to see us slow down the pace of things.

That offensive foul brings the Kings up to 10 turnovers... 11 turnovers in 14 minutes.

God, what a horrendous start to the quarter. We're very lucky to only be down 6.

Ugly offense continues to be the story

a-rod · Post #16 » by **a-rod** » Thu Dec 3, 2009 3:54 am

This turnover trend is killing us. we continue to give up big plays on defense and hand the ball over to the other team..

Jason Thompson in rhythm!

Gotta feel good with the lead when Evans didn't even score in the 2nd quarter.
