Los Angeles Clippers at Sacramento Kings, Feb 27, 2009 7:00 PM PST
King-killer Eric Gordon and Marcus Camby are out. Clipper-killer Beno Udrih is out.
Bobby Jackson will start, and Drew Gooden will play. Chris Kaman ate at P.F. Chang's last night.
Few things can salvage a season like this. Sweeping the Clippers while finishing ahead in the Ping Pong Derby ... that will do it.
7PM. Go Kings.

Wizards win but Salmons lead Bulls in scoring and Miller leads them in rebounding.

Hmmm
Salmons and Miller put up numbers but their team loses. Where have I heard that before?

Wouldn't mind a good showing from Nocioni and Greene too.
by Aykis16 on Feb 27, 2009 6:52 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Personally
I don’t really care how Nocioni plays. If he plays well, great but that means less PT for JT and Greene. If he plays poorly then more PT for JT and maybe Greene, but that contract becomes much more of a concern.
Playing time for Greene would be good though.

If he plays well
the easier it will be to justify the trade for him and his contract and makes it easier to trade him.
by Aykis16 on Feb 27, 2009 6:56 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
He's not getting traded this season
and he is taking some of JT’s minutes now and there is a chance he will take more. That’s my worry.

actually eduardo, I don’t think you’re a hater. I’m just tired of reading all the Natt-venom. I agree the guy has done nothing to indicate we’d want him as coach next year, but all the vitriol about his rotations and such when half the team is new as of a week ago seems a bit much.

That's true
I do understand the situation Natt’s in and know this team has limited talent. At the same time, he’s been failing (IMO) in some basic coaching stuff, like matchups and rotations. It’s pretty exasperating when you see something that a coach, who is suppose to know more than you, doesn’t. The Kings have been losing by a lot so it’s not really that Natt has cost the team games, it’s more of putting the team in a position to stay IN the game.

Rock & an Hard place
Playing BJax at SG against a 6’6"-6’7" guy and having Cisco plays SF against a bigger 6’9" guy while Donte’ warms up the bench, isn’t the answer.
Do you play a guy that’s going to create a good mismatch for your opponent, because he’s a vet that plays hard. Or, do you play a rookie who has the size & athleticism but may not be skilled enough. Natt’s answer has always been go small ball or smaller ball.
The problem is we still lose , and we’re no further along in developing Donte than we were when we sent him to Reno. The other problem is with 22 games left in a miserable season, Natt is still trying to do what’s best for Natt and not what’s best for the team.
The team needs Hawes, JT, & yes Donte to be ready to play extended minutes next year more than they need 3 or 4 more hollow wins. The team need to know which of our expiring is worth making an offer to for next season. The team doen’t need Martin & Cisco to play 40mpg. I don’t expect Natt to throw a garbage time lineup out there to start the game, but reduced minutes for our core vets and extended minutes for our rookies will go a long way for making next season a productive one. And, it won’t hurt our ping pong ball total. Besides, if Natt thinks a few more wins will improve his chances of getting rehired, he’s stupider than I think. He’s best way of looking like a good hire, is to do what’s best for the team.

Bad call
not a great way to end an otherwise good 1/2

tough call there on Kevin
letting the Clips back in it.

only 39 points for the Clips at the half
That may be our best half defensively of the season.

the worst offense we’ve played. :)
It is very nice to see 39pt halves, not quarters for a change though.

Memphis doesn't have a high scoring offense
didn’t stop us from letting the run it up though. I’ll take a 39 point half however we can get it.

The last time I saw a team play this poorly
was the Kings/Knicks… the Clippers are an embarassment.
The second half should give plenty of opportunity to play the new Kings

Wonder if the refs have an early plane to catch
only 16 fouls called so far. 11 on the Kings.

No, I'd like to believe I'd call the game the same way no matter who was playing.
It’s all about integrity. They make a nice living, doing something that seems like it would be pretty fun, even if it is a bit thankless.

I don't understand the attitude that people have about Beno's injury.

I don't understand
I wasn’t mocking Beno’s injury. But Bjax is going to play a lot until Beno comes back unless Natt suddenly falls in love with Soloman. Cisco is a very limited PG.

Looks like
we are going to get at least another game to test that theory.

after he fireed up the off balance 3 with 22 on the shot clock, lol.
But I’m giving the guy credit, mostly, he’s been a very good teammate so far. I’m actually becoming cautiously optomistic.

Clips are one of the most profitable franchises though aren't they?
I guess if he’s in it for profit and doesn’t care about winning…
It would be tough to be a Clips fan though, that’s for sure.

McCants
Does anybody else see a slight resemblance between McCants and Bonzi Wells. They play similar in some ways. McCants shoots more from outside but both are tough and seem to like to play under the basket and in the post a bit

Too many turnovers, Solomon sucks and not enough Dé3. Other than that a pretty excellent performance.

Stat of the Night for me
Jason Thompson: 3 fouls in 31 minutes
Spencer Hawes: 1 foul in 33 minutes
Also, Will Solomon is horrible. The Kings got noticeably worse every time he is on the floor. I predict a great game from Deron Williams tomorrow. Bobby will be tired and Will Solomon can’t play basketball. I might actually start missing Beno.
Good game from Nocioni and McCants too. Loved Kevin’s all-around game too.
Always nice to enjoy a Kings win. Even in the worst season ever, the Kings can still enjoy blowouts versus the Clippers. Something that will hopefully remain a constant forever.
by Aykis16 on Feb 27, 2009 9:24 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
Statistically
This seemed to be the best lineup on the floor tonight:
PG-Bobby J.
SG-McCants
SF-Martin
PF-Nocioni
C-Thompson
The Kings went on a big run with this group on the floor. Interestingly it was without Garcia or Spencer. Was probably more due to who the Clippers had on the floor.

Solomon = Chucker?
Martin took 17 shots in 35 minutes (one shot every 2.06 minutes of play)
McCants took 11 shots in 24 minutes (one shot every 2.18 minutes of play)
Those were the two most frequent shooters tonight for the Kings. No real surprise there. No complaints. Who was #3?
Will Solomon!?!?! 5 shots in 11 minutes of action or one shot every 2.2 minutes of play.
And we were worried about McCants being the chucker!

Agreed - the guys with expiring have to take every opportunity that is presented to them
unfortunately, Solomon looked just horrible in a weak game against the Clippers. Ike was on the floor and looked equally poor during his minutes. Shame really, they are among the best 400 players on the planet and look like they just don’t belong.
