New Kings Players: First Game Prediction (w/Poll)
Hunches. A hunch is just a feeling you get in your gut that you may not be able to explain rationally.
I have a hunch about tonight's game. I am predicting that Rashad McCants will score 20+ points. Why? I have no clue. It's just a hunch but I can't shake it. Usually, when I have a hunch the exact opposite happens so I suppose we should expect to see McCants go 0-8 from the field with 6 turnovers or something.
We got to see a glimpse of what Andres Nocioni and Will Solomon can do on the court but tonight will be the first game that all the new players (besides Drew Gooden, who may be out for the rest of the year because of his groin injury) will be suited up and ready for action.
Does anybody think a certain player will have a good game? Any hunches out there besides mine? My question is, of the new players, who do you think will have the best game tonight? Nocioni is the likely candidate but I feel McCants will go off. In a good way hopefully. What do you think?

Diogu
Foul trouble for JT and Spence = minutes for Ike.

Call it a hunch…

So imitate the action of the tiger!
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favoured rage.
- lend the eye a terrible aspect,
Now set the teeth - and teach them how to war!

I hope
That Will Solomon gets little playing time here. He has a knack for holding onto the ball for too long, which is why he gets a pretty good amount of assists per 36 minutes or so. Also he loves to chuck the ball up, even though he isn’t a very good shooter. Hopefully tonight I see a 9 man rotation of:
Udrih/B-Jax
Martin/Garcia/McCants
Garcia/Nocioni/Greene
Thompson/Nocioni/Greene
Hawes/Thompson
With sparing time to Solomon and Diogu. Thats how bad I think he is.
They've done studies you know: 60% of the time, it works every time.

Can Mccants handle the ball at all? Like could we ever see him and K-mart on the floor together with Mccants bringing the ball up? Actually Garcia could do that with Mccants and K-mart on the floor….hmm

McCants
is a scorer first, and when I’ve seen him he isn’t a very good ball handler. Honestly, he doesn’t have the greatest basketball I.Q. either, so if he’s playing, don’t look for him to set up another player too often. I bet he’d play best with Garcia next to him.

McCants
He is very similar to Kevin Martin when it comes to ball handling so no, I don’t see him playing the point on any team. Like you said, he could play with Garcia and Kevin where Francisco brings the ball up. McCants is better than Kevin at getting to the rim but he doesn’t draw fouls as well as Kevin and he is not as good a shooter. He IS a lot tougher than Martin though. That is the biggest difference. McCants is a tough dude. He won’t flop and flail around like K-Mart. McCants will go through contact instead of bouncing off of it.
Kings rule! (They are royalty - right?)
