Speaking of dogs

I will be on the national dog show tomorrow at noon with one of my 13" beagle puppies. If you want a good laugh check it out Beagles are in the hound group.

I’ll gather my two beagles (13" sisters) and we’ll be crossing our paws for you.

I won't be surprised if the Kings win big

I mean you get the feeling Kings will come out hungry for a win.

Bad play calls at the end of games

Beno runs around for 15 seconds gets what look like three open looks and then passes to people that are covered. Salmons drives into a crowd and loses the ball. Why can’t the team get an open freaking jump shot at the end of games?

Shut up and Coach

by Carl on Nov 26, 2008 10:31 PM PST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Theus really sucks at rotation

Theus alternates Moore & Hawes during the final possessions of the last 2 games, but leaves BJax, the worst 3pt shooter on the team who is already 1-6 from 3pt, out at the 3pt line in the final possession. Plus with Carter out with a injury, why was BJax still guarding Harris? Jackson had already played 30min and obviously couldn’t keep up with Harris. Theus needed to put a better defender on the one person who could hurt us maybe Salmons.

Thinking Loudly

We have lost 5 games by 1 or two points in the last 2 weeks. Here is what the main lineup at the end of the game was:
C – Miller
PF – Moore/Hawes
SF – Salmons
SG – Jackson
PG – Udrih

With that lineup? 0-5. I think it’s time to try the rookies. How about this:
C – Spencer
PF – Thompson
SF – Greene
SG – Salmons
PG – Brown

I mean seriously. I understand about playing games to win so that’s why you don’t play the rookies but when the veterans don’t know how to F*cking win then why not let the young guys play? Could they do worse than 0-5??

I am getting sick and tired of seeing the opponents shooting WIDE OPEN shots with NOBODY in their face to tie or take the lead and it seems like all the Kings can do is get a fade away three pointer with two people in their face. It’s getting damn frustrating.

In the third quarter when we made the run to get back in it...

…it was BECAUSE of the young guys ….

Exactly!

They have the heart, the energy and the BALLS to try hard and go for it. The veterans, mainly Miller, Udrih and Moore seem to be afraid to shoot or take the big shots. They CHOKE. Even Salmons can’t make a shot in the final seconds. He missed a couple times last week and also tonight with the free throws and on Monday against Portland

Not only that but there's too much pressure on Salmons

Teams know he’s the Kings top scorer right now and they start collapsing on him.

I bet Salmons wishes that Garcia and Martin were there to take the pressure off him. Because Udrih and Miller sure don’t.

Chicken little

I know I’m always saying the sky is falling, but the Kings have lost six of seven and the upcoming schedule looks like this:
@ Utah
vs. Dallas
vs. Utah
vs. Denver
vs LA Lakers
@ LA Lakers

The worst team in that stretch is Dallas, and they’ve won five straight. Reggie better start checking his ass for smoke, because his seat’s going to get real hot here in the next couple weeks.

Shut up and Coach

wow....

There’s only one game in that schedule that looks winnable…

Winnable?

The way they’ve been playing, the only thing that’s winnable is a top 4 lottery pick.

1-5

I think they get at least one win because they will have Garcia back on Friday and Martin should be back next week.

I suspect

that Kings are rather supposed to beat teams like Lakers, Nuggets or Jazz than Nets, Bucks or Grizzlies (for about the second year in a row)

That was the worst coached and played game I have ever seen !

Worst Loss of the season. I wouldn’t pay a nickle to watch these losers play. Brad ( The B52 Bummer) needs to be benched. His defensive ineptitude is the focal point for every team in crunch time. Every team runs their offense thru whoever Miller is guarding, and when the double team comes as it always does, they get a wide open shot. Thats because my Grandma could post up miller and score !! He is THE WORST DEFENDER CENTER IN THE LEAGUE PERIOD !!! B-JAX is too old to defend anymore. Salmons has no heart. Beno is afraid to take a late game meaningful shot. Moore isnt much better a defender than Miller. But the missed free throws by Salmons and Hawes ARE the worst by far of all the idiot things that happened this night, They completely Gave that game away again. Blatant disregard for defending the 3 point line. Whatever the coach is drawing up on his little white board, this team is either ignoring him or the plays are worthless. Brad Miller needs to be BENCHED. He is washed up. B-Jax is still a good backup, but so is Beno. JT should be starting since like 2 weeks ago. If there is no roster shakeup after laying this big of an egg, they need to fire the coach. Heartless, poorly played, Poorly executed, poorly officiated, poorly coached and Someone needs to pay me back for the 3 hours I wasted watching this trash. Watching Salmons miss free throws just reminds me of what a POOR shooting Guard he really is. Teams play him to dribble and easily strip him on the double down. Everyone on the Nets Bench knew he was going to get the ball. I am Disgusted to be a Kings fan right now… They should already be starting When Healthy: Beno, Martin, Greene, JT, and Hawes. That team hustles and goes after rebounds. This crap needs to end soon !!

We need your posts for 3 point defense

No one could shoot over those.

Seriously, good stuff, but could you throw in a paragraph now and then?

My Thanksgiving Wish

Please let Garcia and Martin come back this weekend and be healthy. I am tired of Salmons and Jackson playing 35 minutes a game

Seriously...I am so angry about this loss...

It’s the first time this whole season where I have felt just utterly disgusted with what was going on in the game.

I don’t hate Theus or anything, but his kind of games really do make you question is coaching ability.

Sure he can encourage guys and make them play hard, but he doesn’t have any strategical skills apparently.

It’s depressing watching the Kings always come out of a time out and completely fail.

Yeah

I would be fine (not happy) or at least satisfied if the Kings got a decent shot off and just missed it. I can live with a 18 footer that rims out. I am just sick of turnovers, fade-away threes and blocked shots to end the game.

or have common sense. NJ had 14 seconds no timeouts left and Theus doesn’t do anything. Why the hell don’t you foul once they get past the half court line? If that happens, at worst NJ heaves a half court shot for the win.

I just got back from the game

and i don’t want to hear any bullshit about a technical on Miller..

This team needs someone on it who not only WANTS to win the game but is DETERMINED to win it.

Sickening, it was a Sickening choke job by the whole team, a team with no Alpha male Fu#!!!ing DETERMINED to win. I'm not saying Artest was the RIGHT Alpha male but who on this mother$#!ing roster who’s going to get the F%!@!ing win?!????

So much for getting all ‘nice’ guys.

As I’ve asked in the past ‘Who will bring the Fire!?’

No one here that I can see,
no one.

Pathetic

Just watched the end of the game

Wow, what a terrible loss. Getting down by 17 to the Nets at home is pretty bad. Coming back and getting a solid lead late in the 4th was nice. Salmons congrats on a career high 38, but 3-6 from the line in crunch time and OT? Unforgivable. Choking away a lead late in the 4th? Unacceptable. Not getting a shot off at the end of regulation with a chance to win? WTF? Overall the kind of game that’ll get your coach fired.
