Around SBN: Dana White Announces Koscheck vs. Hendricks for UFC on FOX

Game #9: Kings at Clippers

Sacramento Kings at Los Angeles Clippers, Nov 12, 2008 7:30 PM PST


Back-to-back? Eek!

This is a game that would be nice for the Kings to win. If the Clippers want to salvage their season, though, they sort-of need this one ... at least for the spirit's sake. No, nothing this early in the year is a must-win. But any team that fancies itself a playoff contender should beat the snot out of a Kings team at home with extra rest and no Kevin Martin. There's no reason for the Clippers to lose this one.

That makes it fun from our end: really, there's no reason for the Kings to win. Lower expectations means a bigger surprise should things go well. As we've seen with these youngsters: when you have talent, things can always go well. It's not a fluke. It's an unexpected, early benefit of drafting well.

This is all to say: go Kings! Game's at 7:30PM PST.

Probably not

Spencer isn’t really a PF either.

Why can't Miller start over Mikki?

Miller’s original position, when he started playing here was at PF, I believe. Miller is a natural PF, anyway, since he shoots jump shots a lot and does a lot of passing at the top of the key. Just move miller up to PF and let Hawes play the C. I don’t see why Reggie isn’t doing this.

I agree

but I also don’t mind Spencer’s offensive punch off the bench. At least until Cisco comes back.

by lietothegirls on Nov 12, 2008 8:57 PM PST up reply actions  

I agree with this take

He would’ve struggled more defensively against Detroit as well. Donte’s got a long time to learn and happens to play a position at which (notwithstanding injuries) the Kings are pretty well set. We’ve got two rookies and a twenty year old playing significant minutes already. Donte will get as many minutes as will benefit the team.

Bingo! Lawler's Law is in Effect! Bingo!

Oh, this ain’t Clips Nation. Umm, anyway perfectly put sir.

No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on

I agree he's earning it

but there’s more to it than that. Give it 20 games . . .

I think Theus will until there is JUST NO DOUBT – in JTs mind especially. Thats what counts.

Cisco? Cisco? CISCO!!!! #*$!%! !

Higher quality link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebxO1tHPv6o&fmt=18

Kings.com folks – if you upload a high quality YouTube file, add &fmt=18 to the end of the url and you’ll link directly to the higher quality version. I believe that you can actually upload up to a 720p file and use &fmt=22 to stream a super high quality version. The &fmt=22 thing is something I read today and not something I’ve tried myself.

Shut up and Coach

Nice ride home!

Just got back from the game in Los Angeles!

-if you’re new to Los Angeles, and you’re mapquesting for directions, be sure to type in Staples Center, not just Staples.

-Staples Center is quite a nice arena! Instead of a rock band for live entertainment, they have a hiphop DJ. I guess it goes with the territory: When I went to a game in Oakland back in the day, they had an RNB band. And in Boston they had….a leprechaun who looked like a human, and NO cheerleaders.

-listened to Clippers radio on the way to the game. The voice of the Clips did his homework and could talk intelligently about the Kings, and he was giving a lot of praise. Its good to be a nice surprise, instead of a bad (Clippers) surprise.

-Spencer is wowing people. The Clips crowd was awestruck with some of his plays.

-When Brad and Spencer are both on the floor, Spencer goes all the way deep to the corner to set up for 3 pointers, and it made Kaman step far away from the basket on defense (guess they’re doing their scouting and respecting Spencer’s shooting). I don’t think this helped too much, cuz the Kings didn’t penetrate enuff when that looked like a good opportunity.

-Spencer played way off his man on defense. I know it’s a zone, but he’s either relying a lot on his speed to catch up (maybe that’s why our 3-pt defense is terrible) or he’s hungry for blocks and wants to patrol the paint.

-Everyone knows which direction Beno drives. The clips were adamant about forcing him to the right, and towards the end he was always way over on the right side, but he was able to play through it a few times and make a nice play.

-I know a lot of the offense goes through Brad, but its still Beno who is directing the team. He did a lot of meeting with Reggie on timeouts and while someone else was shooting free throws at the other end.

-In real life, JT doesn’t look like he should be making such athletic plays and good shooting. The crowd seemed really surprised.

-Marcus Camby’s block made my eyes pop out. And I was sitting way up in section 310!

put me in, Coach

Nice Summary

Shock and Hawes = the next twin towers?

Good post

Nice detail there, especially with stuff we couldn’t see in the game.

The problem with camera's

Is that they’re far more limited than eyes are.

just watched the highlights on NBA.com

I knew that looked familiar! when Jason Thompson dunks, he slaps the backboard, like Chris Webber.

(and that’s where I’ll stop with the comparisons)

You could make more

Body Type, agility, athletic, excellent handles, long enough to be a decent shot blocker, that type of thing.

Phoenix coming in on Friday short handed

Should probably be without Barnes, Nash and Shaq, though I doubt they will all get suspended. Here’s the video of the confrontation.

That becomes a must win doesn't it Kfan?
