After missing Friday's game getting snowed in Harrisburg Pa
I am looking for a Kings victory tonight. JT will dominate Dirk and K-Mart will lead the way to the W Go KINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice interview with Levien before the game
Seems like a smart and genuine guy. He spent Xmas eve with Speed and both families so they are pretty tight for sure
Yeah, Kidd can't guard
Beno, Salmons or Martin. That’s a bad match-up for them.

I think they just got caught in a switch
Now Dallas may put Dirk on Brad when we’re on offense, since Brad plays more outside than JT.

mavs are playing into our hands atm
we foul like crazy usually, as we cant guard penetration. they are mostly shooting jumpers, which is fine for us i think
Back to back
plays for Hawes in the post. 1st one good 2nd one not, but I like it.

our offence right now
looks like there’s 4 guards out there…oh shit there is
btw
we spell offense (offence) here in aus…..i think

I spell it both ways like one of those i before e things
"We are in the business of kicking butt and business is very, very good." - Charles Barkley
why
are we playing so small? it obviously is not working
third swat out by dirk on offensive board
"We are in the business of kicking butt and business is very, very good." - Charles Barkley
i'm sorry
but Kevin is very lazy on defence.
We are losing because of rebounds
No sense to go small unless Natt is really protecting JT from a 3rd foul
it's not like we don;t have any other bigs??
that was a terrible finish to the half…and i blame Natt!
by thisismellow on Jan 11, 2009 7:07 PM PST up reply actions
Down by 6 at the half
Have to come out in the 3rd with the same energy the team had to start the game. We also went cold in the 2nd and the rebounds killed us so it should get better with JT coming back in
it's always going to be hard
to stop 2 seven footers from rebounding….when other than brad, no one is over 7-7. i’m somewhat confised
by thisismellow on Jan 11, 2009 7:08 PM PST up reply actions
I didn't see the beginning of the game, who was JT guarding?

First FTs of the game for Kevin
Ball movement ... is like jogging for most people: They do it occasionally, and it makes them happy. Then they go back to not doing it. - Henry Abbott
this is when
we usually let things get ugly.
another TO. Come on
Ball movement ... is like jogging for most people: They do it occasionally, and it makes them happy. Then they go back to not doing it. - Henry Abbott
Kevin got dinged for a few of those last game
Hard to say whose at fault for that kind of TO. Seems Brad ought to know better than to bounce a pass into traffic like that. When there are four or six hands all in reception area, mabe he ought to fake the pass and do something else.
it get's really disheartening
to see the team look real competitive for a majority of each game….then fall in a heap for small periods. unfortunately with our lack of talent, there is such little room for error.
19 for Terry now
ouch.

Our team's defense
is effing terrible! Natt’s supposed to be teaching them the basics and some fundamentals right? Then how come our guys don’t jump to block a shot. Miller runs out to cover Dirk and just sticks his hand out? He’s lucky Dirk missed that. How hard is it to jump and put a hand straight up?

by thisismellow on Jan 11, 2009 8:28 PM PST up reply actions
Howard would be a good acquisition
His production has dropped and he doesn’t seem that happy to be in Dallas anymore. I’m not very high on Bass though.
i like him
but he would need to be re-signed after this year. i don;t think we’ll be making any of those sorts of decisions until after we draft Griffin:) the money doesn’;t match up on this trade anyway.
by thisismellow on Jan 11, 2009 8:35 PM PST up reply actions
They're about as good with Howard (13-10)
as they are without him (9-5), and his attitude is not as great as it could be. There’s also the issue of his off-season activities drawing unwanted attention. I imagine Dallas is entertaining offers. Dunno if we could together a good enough package, or that he’d like playing here all that much more.
What are they like 20-8 since their bad start?
That’s pretty good.

yeh
we need a couple of teams to reach this realisation as the deadline approaches. we could really benefit from such teams becoming keen to make some big moves.

There are several teams like this in the west
The most intriguing of which is Portland. They have some question marks at the PG and SF positions, and some young talent to send back. I don’t think they’d be interested in Udrih, but a deal involving Salmons wouldn’t be out of the question.
totally!
unfortunately we’re a little limited with our pieces, as it’s only really worthwhile making moves if we’re going to free up some room. therefore, a deal needs to include KT (as we all know by now!)

5-8 playoff spots wide open in the West
4 spots, five teams.
6-8 open in the East, 3 spots, six teams.
If someone starts to fall out or if someone does fall out and goes into rebuild mode, all are potential targets.

Blake is pretty capable
and in crunch time they use a guy name Roy brionging the ball down. Works pretty well. Salmons would not be a good fit for them because they like to pass the ball.

So, this is how it feels to win? Had almost forgotten the feeling
I’m guessing after 5 close games we finally learned how to win and this one is sweet. We almost gave it away at the end…. again, but got a couple stops and rebounded when we needed to. Hope it;s a small turnaround for the team. I just want to win more games and not feel like everytime is a close game we are going to lose it. Confidence can do crayz things. Let’s build on this….
The most important thing
IT was a team win. It wasn’t Kevin’s, or John’s, or Cisco’s, it was everyone doing their job and contributing. That’s the best part

The way we came out after the half I thought we were going to piss it away

Nice win
Good to see the Kings break through. If Minnesota can won five straight, so can we.

Kings win!!!!!
They have really played good ball the last 5 games only one win to show for it but nice progress
That's about perfect
Play well, but don’t hurt our lottery chances.

huh
If an assistant coaching hire results in that drastic of a change so suddenly, well, then… damn.
Glad he’s back on the team.
Donte? Donte'! Donté?!?!
'spect da 'xtra E'
havent been able to catch any games lately...
…does it look like anything noticeable has changed since carril came on?
Missed the game but reading the box score
Beno is back. Looks like one of his better games and No turnovers.
Looked like Martin had a late forth quarter near meltdown again. Two turnovers at the end of the game. He will not become an NBA elite until he learns to be a closer.
Mikki played 5.5 minutes and had no stats other than one miss.
Williams was not even listed in the box score. Is he inactive now?
JT listed as highest in +/- at +13.
