DeMarcus Cousins will not play tonight.
Rudy Gay might have trouble guarding Andrew Wiggins.
I watched this Minnesota team shut down the Miami Heat, who then ran us out of the gym two nights later.

This will not be easy.

Lack of energy to the game so far

Glad Rubio out, and none to pleased with Cuz's injury probs - that is bad luck

Some of these defensive plays are so bad that I would immediately call a timeout and yell at them. George Karl doesn't though.

Rudy needs to bring it without Cuz, so far some turnovers and bad looking ISO

I didn't like that Wolves rebound off the free throw

Oh god, we are playing Acy at center.

I didn't see the opening tip, but why do I think we are going to start the second quarter with the ball?

I actually think that's an interesting unit. I don't like the idea of playing small half way. When they go small usually it's with a full sized C that can't run with his teammates. This was a unit that was able to get ahead of the defense and put pressure on them.

Also, when Rondo got caught on a switch they did exactly as they should. When Payne was just about out cream Rondo in the post Collison came up and got the steal. It's a gamble because you won't steal it every time but that could deter average post up bigs from even going there if they feel enough swarming defense.

Collison has not looked crisp so far

Belinelli still thinking

10-0 run by Wolves..

A clear lack of familiarity with this unit here.

See, this is a unit in my opinion that should be able to stay man to man. They are way over helping and are showing on screens or playing zone. There's no reason for that. Both Acy and Cauley-Stein should be able to easily switch off of help.

A run that seen a 5 point lead go to 9 point deficit, can I take more?

Kings2013 · Post #11 » by **Kings2013** » Sat Nov 28, 2015 4:04 am

Gay has been poor and Karl limiting his minutes due to it

Rudy 1-7, sluggish

I read on twitter the perfect way to describe Kings defense: its broken.

Right here, they are finally committing to the switch and it's the only defensive challenge we've seen in the game yet.

Kings2013 · Post #14 » by **Kings2013** » Sat Nov 28, 2015 4:28 am

The offense pitiful to start the second half when the Wolves were missing everything themselves

SacKingZZZ · Post #15 » by **SacKingZZZ** » Sat Nov 28, 2015 4:28 am

And then they proceed to give up two wide open jumpers as Koufos zones off the pick and roll.

I guess it's all moot considering if Rudy, Rondo, or someone doesn't have an inhuman game there are going to be struggles.

Now they are stringing stops together. Makes a heck of a difference.

Casspi meeting his bonehead play quota for the game.... Smh

We can't score, and we can't guard them.

Ben still not a positive on a nightly basis. Still holes. How long is he going to be in there?

Oh, right. We are also getting killed on the boards.
