Preview: Suns at Kings
THE SCOUTING REPORT
Brought to you by HighTops:
Phoenix is in 6th place in the West, and like the SAS had a very bad January ending the month with a 7-9 record. For the season they’re 30-21, and 12-15 on the road, but they’ve already beaten us here in Sac and in Phoenix, and have won 14 of the last 16 meetings. Their losing ways seem to be changing having won four straight with a winning margin of 8 pts and a scoring average of 110 points per game. And, they expect to sweep their current road trip starting with the lowly Kings. (Not my words, it’s from the Suns website.)
The Kings played well against the Suns in the two losses, and actually outscored them from the field but lost the games by being outscored by 11 pts and 8 pts from the FT line. The Kings also out rebounded the Suns. In the Dec 15th game in Phoenix, Kenny Thomas had 18 rebounds and Amare had 21. In the Jan. 5th game in Sac, Tyreke pulling down 11 and JT 10, while JRich lead the Suns with 9 and Amare pulled down 8.
The honors keep coming for the Suns; Amare and Nash were both named to the Western Conference All-Star starting lineup. And, Channing Frye became the league leader in made 3pt shots (92), on Jan. 6th against Houston, after posting his 5th game of the season with 6 made 3’s.
The one change since our last meeting is that Robin Lopez has started the last 10 games at Center, and Frye has moved to the bench. As a starter, Lopez is averaging 13 ppg, 6 rpg, and 1.2 blks in 25.6 mpg while shooting .654 FG% and .784 FT%. The other starters remain the same. Nash is averaging 16.8 ppg and 11.3 apg on .453 FG% and .468 3P%. JRich is scoring 12.2 ppg & 6.5 rpg on 42% shooting from the field but only 21% (8-37) from 3pt range. Grant Hill is still putting up good number, .494 FG%, .462 3P% and .893 from the FT line, but only averages 11 pts/4 rebs per game. And finally, Amare who is making sounds like he may not opt out of his contract at the end of the season, but is playing like a man looking for a big payday. He is averaging 23 pts, 9.2 rebounds, and 1.4 blks on 53% shooting.
With JT out for personal reasons, the Kings are woefully undersized and can’t match up with Phoenix’s big man rotation of Lopez, Stoudemire, Frye, and Amundson. I have to believe that PW told Thomas to start warming up right after the SAS game, so the only question is who will be in a suit, Hilton or May. Beno is listed, as day to day, so hopefully he’ll be available. The Kings could use him if Martin starts to lose his stroke as he did in the end of the Spurs game. Our one ray of hope lies with Tyreke who has averaged 24.0 points, 8.5 rebounds and 7.0 assists in two games against the Suns.
After the horrible way the Kings defended the pick & roll in the Spurs game, the site of Nash entering Arco doesn’t bode well for the Kings in spite of the fact that Nash has been hampered by an abdominal strain. Add to that an offense that has dropped to 21st in the league, and a defense that’s rated 24th and giving up 107 ppg; and it paints a pretty bleak picture. For the Kings just to compete is going to take some of the best performances of the season from our young core, and probably the career game from someone like Armstrong or May. Let’s hope Westphal can come up with some of his rotational magic, and find a couple of line ups that can compete with another opponent that’s likely to go far into the post season.
Thanks to HighTops, as always. His Key Points should be in the comments shortly.
THE KEY BATTLE
Evans vs. Nash. The Kings figure to lose the battle between Amare and J.T.'s replacement (likely Greene), so it's vital the difference is made up in the backcourt. And there, you have to pray Evans can get to the line frequently. Phoenix fouls infrequently relative to the league, despite rather poor guard defense. But Reke has shown a real skill in drawing fouls, and knocking Amare out of the game early would be divine.
BOLD PROCLAMATION
Channing Frye will miss more three-pointers than Sean May.
BOLD BROCKLAMATION
That tank of lobsters never stood a chance.

Mancakes shut down Amare a bit in the 4th quarter, no? Maybe if Greene does start and has a hard time with Stoudemire, the husky Husky will get an early shot at him.

Your statement is perfect proof of why winning is so difficult to accomplish in the NBA (and any sport really).
It should also make you realize how difficult it is to win lots of games. Most teams have similar problems.

Scouting Report Game Keys
Tyreke & Nash: Evans needs to play defense like he did the last 5 minutes of the SAS game, but for 36minutes: I don’t know how badly Nash is hampered by his abdominal strain, but if Tyreke can play him tight, and get some steals early, we should be able to limit his assists to under 9.
Martin & JRich: JRich isn’t hitting the 3 ball. Martin can play off and limit penetration and close off the passing lanes. I’d like to see more shots taken in the paint, especially early in the game, so more ‘and 1’s’. I also think that instead of setting screens with the bigs, Tyreke could set a screen on JRich, and then if they switch Nash would have to stop Kevin from cutting into the lane for a short jumper. If they don’t switch, it would be an easy way to get Evans the ball, and attacking the rim.
Spencer and the Suns Bigs: My guess is that PW will start Spencer & Donte at Center & PF again. Amare isn’t really a back down type of offensive play, and Donte’s quickness and length might bother him. I expect Thomas to come off the bench for Spence because of his interior defense and rebounding and May for Donte because we’re going to need his offense.
Omri & Hill: I think Omri is the wild card. The Kings need to run a lot of iso’s for Omri and get him a lot of looks. He needs to get about 20/8 for the Kings to have a chance.
Suns might not sweep this road trip but they might just start off with a win. The Kings can’t win if they lose the FT battle for the 3rd time, so they need to attack the basket and draw some fouls of their own. I like the Sun’s by 8, especially without JT. To win the Kings are going to have to score in the paint, and from the 3, and stop Nash. Go Kings.

I would put that in all caps too. Very upsetting.
Another flaw in the human character is that everybody wants to build and nobody wants to do maintenance. Vonnegut
Should have read "I expect Brockman & Thomas to come off bench for Spence"
I don’t like Brockma or Thomas covering Frye outside. So, if Donte has to play major minutes on Amare, the only one left was May on Frye. Real difficult to guess what PW is thinking.

The Kings might win the free throw battle

And I actually like the match-up of bigs. Particularly I think that among Greene, Brockman and Thomas, Amar’e could get really frustrated.
Lower their expectations and rise to met them
I don't think JT is a very good matchup against Phx. Donte would be a player I'd much rather see start on Amare than any other Kings on the roster.

keys to win
to beat the suns we have to….
1) get back on defense, dont celebrate and get burned
2) get out on fastbreaks, the idea of tyreke going at nash (or any suns player not named amare) sounds good to me
3) do not let an average player on the suns look like a HOFer (ex. DeJuan Blair), dudley, amundson, and frye cannot have big games
4) force nash into foul trouble….i would get an evans, casspi, greene, noc lineup out there so that nash can be posted up no matter who hes guarding
5) BE AGGRESSIVE!
What's wrong with Reke driving against Amar'e? It's not like he's gonna give a great effort to defend or block Evans.
He lives to do work on the offensive side of the floor, not much else.
Lets Go Kings Baby!
I gotta a feeling about tonight. I think it’s going to be a W
"Rebuild The Kingdom, and they will come"

But I highly doubt the Suns are going very far in the playoffs – if they even make the playoffs.
Not that the Suns suck – but the competition is simply better.
"I hate all sports as rabidly as a person who likes sports hates common sense."

On 2nd thought, they'll make the playoffs
but that’s about it – barring a giant leap in development for R. Lopez.
"I hate all sports as rabidly as a person who likes sports hates common sense."
-H.L. Mencken
If they can win the 4th position
They’re not going to overtake the LA, but Utah probably isn’t going to beat out Denver either. That puts Utah and PHO in a battle for the #4/#5 position. Currently Utah is 3 games ahead in teh loss column. If Pho can finish in the 4 spot, they have a good chance to win the series because of the home court. That puts them in the into the 2nd round. And, I consider that far.
"If you don't have anything good to say, LIE" - Mom
The greatest impact player in NBA History - Tim Donaghy
That's a huge leap of faith
putting them at the #4/5 spot. They are 1 game in front of being #9 – and the only reason they are even in the race is because of their hot start.
The real question is: which is the “real” Suns – the one from the start of the season, or the one we’ve seen for much of the last 2 months?
I’d put my money on somewhere in the middle – which puts them between the 6-8 seeds and towards a quick exit from the playoffs.
"I hate all sports as rabidly as a person who likes sports hates common sense."
-H.L. Mencken
Though obviously anything could happen with the 4-11 seeds
depending on what goes down before the trade deadline.
Bottom line: It’s going to be a brutal. And fascinating.

Probably irrelevant and inapplicable comment but oh well
I remember reading about a Vietnam POW (might have been Dieter Dangler but for all i know it was John McCain) who was asked about the value of hope in horrible situations such as being a frickin POW. The response was surprising because they said that the people with hope were always the first to die. What they meant was that often their hope was based on irrational thoughts and they would latch out it and keep saying day after day “we’re going to be saved soon …. I heard American planes flying over …. the war should be over soon and we can go home.” Over time they couldn’t handle the realties of the situation. The people who did best were the ones who were more practical, knew they were in hell and dealt with the day to day. He was not saying it was best to be a pessimest but it was best to try and understand your situation before you start clinging on to things that were not based on reality.
Obviously rooting for a sports team is not nearly the same as surviving a frickin war camp. For some reason the above comment made me remember the POW thing and i just started typing for whatever reason.

I wonder if Sean May can be the Frye guy
Shooting 3’s all over the place and whatnot.

only way May is a "frye" guy is if he makes a pit stop at McDonalds
Could some of you maybe use a condom once in a while?
For May, McDonald's isn't a pit stop
it’s the checkered flag.

I'll be listening to this one on the radio
heading to Reno. I think we have a shot, mostly just because we’re due for a win and we’ve played them pretty tight. Nash, mostly by himself beat us in two of those. Is he due for an off game? I hope so. I know he flew to Vancouver to run the torch yesterday so hopefully he’s tired.

Hope - don't leave home or listen to a Kings game without it.
To be the best, you have to do your best. Otherwise, you are only second-rate.
Hopefully this is the game...
THe Kmart and Tyreke Backcourt takes off. Or just the game that makes it even easier for Mr. Petrie to trade him. DONT TRADE KMART PETITION! EVERYONE SIGN! lol

Wow
We’re already back to being the “lowely” Kings? That hurts. That being said I feel good about this game for some reason.
I love beating dead horses.
