Game #35: Kings at Nets

Ziller-laser_tiny by Ziller on in Game Threads Comment 324 comments

Sacramento @ New Jersey


How odd that Brad Miller has hit his stride as the Kings roll into the gym of the team against which Miller initially lost his stride. The Nets loss seems to be the point at which most Kings devotees (around here, at least) soured on B-52 to the point of trade pleas.

But Miller's been a beast since ... hmm ... Spencer Hawes went out with an injury to the abdomen. How odd that Miller and Hawes would both struggle so much in the Ivory Towers line-up. I mean, it makes sense: at this point, the players have similar strengths and weaknesses, with a couple important deviations. But it was still odd to see.

The question marks still hang on Beno Udrih like nooses, and Francisco Garcia seems trapped in 2006-07. More than any King, Garcia has actually looked frustrated and bothered and unsettled. The injury after the contract is said to have broken his heart, and the sacking of his mentor couldn't have helped. But Garcia's a man, man, and this cannot stand. He'll bounce back, hopefully soon.

Perhaps this is a discussion for tomorrow, but I'd like to make it known I am personally perfectly OK with Kevin Martin off the bench. Hell, he scored 45 points Saturday, and easily could have had 50 with a couple breaks (a foul call on the travel, a little more patience on the last possession). 46 off the bench. He'll get his shots any time, obviously. And Natt's giving him good minutes. He didn't get to play with Beno any in this model (rather, Beno doesn't get to play with Kevin), but the arrangement doesn't exactly seem broke.

Game's at 4:30PM. Enjoy, and go Kings.

Go Kings!!!!

Look for JT to have a career night off of his jersey retirement yesterday at Rider. Kings had a camera man there covering it yesterday interviewing the whole family look for something on Kings.com. I am hoping for a road win here, they should have won one of the last two games. It will be interesting to see what the starting line up will be.

Why aren't you going to the game screaming your ass off in a JT Kings/Rider half & half jersey?

I agree with TZ it's not a big deal Martin coming off the bench

but it would be easier to get his minutes and rest and still be fresh at the end of the half/game if he started.

still 4 minutes of "rest" wasted

so if he’s going to play 20 minutes a half he’d have to play 20 minutes straight.

Loved that last drive by Bobby Brown finding a cutting Miller, and I like the guys looking for Speed.

One theory I have about JT so far

Is that he has so much nervous energy, that playing in a b2b scenario helps him because he has to play with a balls out zealous passion to have that edge he has when he plays with it. On a b2b it’s hard to conserve your energy, but JT doesn’t, and tomorrow, that should be something the Kings need to try & take advantage of.

after the first six minutes:

2) JT was awesome
3) omg, K9 was really good
4) Beno’s second stint was really good, playing with some hustle and fire

the perfect guards for an inside outside game. but unfortunately our only guys who even look like scoring inside are a rookie and a 2nd year. if we give a shit about winning a few games this year, we need to get back some sort of post player in one of the trades hopefully coming up. …but do we really care bout winning anyway?

by thisismellow on Jan 5, 2009 6:56 PM PST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Probably not

One way to look at the 2009 draft pick is that a point guard with long range potential may be the way to go with Beno around, that way, as Beno’s contract gets shorter, it may be easier to deal him when “Ricky Rubio” (the quotes are hypothetical) is ready to play at the NBA level. Remember, if the Kings drafted a player like Jennings, who would be 20, and Rubio, who would be barely 19 by the time the season started, you would have a steep learning curve. It takes time with more seasoned PG’s from college, like Gary Payton, or Bobby Hurley, or you get the point, and with younger kids, it takes even more. (I think the 2009 draft may be about the PG though.)
