Kings Win!
Games like these are why I keep the TV on till the final whistle!
Scot Pollard for President
How about that Kevin Martin guy, huh?
He’s so weak mentally he didn’t do anything in overtime.
Just like coolcalt always saying, he hides in the clutch, he doesn’t come throuhg when it counts. What a dissapeari act?
And he never rebounds or passes the ball. He didn’t rebound his own miss and got the Kings the ball back there at the end. No sir.
Continue to hate, we’ll be here all day!

Seriously!
KM’s always hot during the game (enhence the inflated stats), but he sure gets cold in overtime and “when it counts”
Wait....Why is everybody clapping? Everyone around me is clapping.... I guess I should be clapping too... GO LAKERS!!! I hate living in So Cal
Stop
Just stop right now. Wrong time to hate on the guy

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
Why would you recommend that?!?!?!?
Sorry LPA, but you know… I’m a male. I can’t help it.

"one game"
Please. More game winners over the last 3 years than anyone on our team. I’d argue one slump does not make a career.

You could say Kevin won this game by passing the ball back
instead of putting up another shot.
Father of the "Natt this!" movement, Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order, and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
That was incredible
It took him a split second to recognize what he was doing and correct it.
Kevin Martin is playing better team ball on offense, there's no denying that.
…but on defense, Kevin just stands around and watches his teammates 95% of the time- or sluggishly trails his man.
What’s curious is why so many people on this forum would claim he plays defense with heart (but just isn’t good at it).. That one play in overtime where K-mart aggressively stayed in front of his man (creating a missed shot)- THAT’S what even skinny guys are capable of. He rarely plays defense with that kind of intensity, but would be so effective if he did.
I don’t want to see him traded- I just want to see him put way more effort into defense. Offensively, I think he’ll come around as a team player.
So many people on this site are very sensitive about any kind of criticism or critique of Kevin; then again, a lot of people on this site used to say few teams would benefit from having Donte Greene, too.
What’s curious is why so many people on this forum would claim he plays defense with heart (but just isn’t good at it).

You come up with lame ass excuses as to why Martin is to blame for the losses. How about: The whole team has been struggling (and was before Martin returned), and then the losses continued after Martin was in the lineup.
It’s amazing that you people manage to keep your head on straight. If you want to criticize him for lack of defense or whatever, that’s fine. But to say that Tyreke learns from his mistake is a dumb churlish comment by someone who clearly lacks the ability to comprehend what it is he is watching.

don’t get it twisted…it’s a team game. i’m not blaming martin for shit but playin like kevin martin. i’ve watched tyreke learn from his mistakes. that denver game winner for example… a couple games before that he had the exact same situation come about and he forced the drive. next time he had the opportunity he went for the drive and when he seen it wasn’t their… he didn’t try to force it.. instead he took what he knew he could get…
…kevin will have the ball in crunch time… do his little peter pan up fake and not get the call. the next time.. same thing. it’s as if it hasn’t registered to him… “hey maybe i should try shooting”

Make a damn fanpost, put up a disclaimer that it is for people who want to talk Martin and ask that all others stay out. Go nuts, I won’t bug you there. Just don’t come in on post comments on game and just talk crap questioning the “heart and passion” of one player.

Answer
Tyreke has been one of the most consistent players in the NBA, thus far.
Kevin was solid but let's not get carried away
he played within himself and got hot late. I give him credit…I like seeing 7-13 instead of 7-27. Tonight he was what he is…a good second fiddle. He didn’t try to be what he isn’t and what it has taken him 22 games to figure out. This team is better when he doesn’t try to dominate the game. He took smart unforced shots instead of volume shooting. We are a better team when Tyreke has the ball in his hands more than any other player and Kevin just fits in.
Let’s not get crazy though…he has had more disappearing acts in late game situations then he has had clutch moments.

Kevin is the opposite of a volume shooter.
He scores more with fewer shots than nearly anyone in the league.
Kevin has had 2 games
in his entire career he shot 27 shots or more, and in one of those games he scored 48 points.
You’re take is asinine.
What the hell?
When did this myth come around that he’s a volume shooter?

Yeah, I don't get it.
Like, I’m fine with the whole no-defense thing (even though at the beginning of the season he was talking about how Thorpe was only concerned with his defense) and the whole skinny thing (because fast players can’t be skinny, apparently), but that’s just wrong.

I think before he got hurt he was staying in front more
and switching better. Small sample size but still I thought he was better.
Volume shooter
Only 20 players in the league take average more shots per game
He takes more shots per game than. . .

Higher or lower? And his PPS is amazing.
you dumb
kevin martin hasn’t been healthy this year. the two years before this, he averaged fewer shot attempts but more points per game than chris paul. stoudamire and boozer are forwards, and aren’t exactly comparable straight up like that…you gonna have a higher field goal percentage when steve nash is feeding you dunks…bla bla bla
...really...?
How many teams are there in the NBA? is 20 above or below that number / 2?
Oh, so Kevin takes fewer shots than the top shooters on more than half the other teams in the NBA? Some volume shooter…

He's played 18 games
and his true shooting percentage is 53%, which is still pretty good.
a little perspective, please
KMart’s career TS% puts him at #19 in the NBA. All time. The only active players ahead of him are Nash, Amare and Dwight Howard. I think he’s earned some patience.

he played with himself and got hot late… couldn’t read much past that.
You think I think of him as a star?
He is a second fiddle. Granted I think second fiddle means a sidekick like second or third best player on a team but i also think that’s pretty darn good. I just didn’t understand your volume shooter crap.

It depends
On the team we are playing. That lineup will do well against many lineups in the league, but sometimes players like Spencer can give us a better mismatch to exploit, like when we play the Lakers. The real question remains
how will Francisco Garcia fit into the picture once he comes back.

I love it. I also love what a bench mob it leaves.
Spencer, Brockman, Udoka, Beno, Sergio off the bench, with bits of May mixed in.
I loved back in the day when Adelman would leave just one starter, usually Webber or Vlade in, and let the bench just come in and completely throw the other team off balance. I would love to see that happen now.

I honestly don't know if I'm being sarcastic or not.
I feel that on many nights Hawes either doesn’t bring it, or starts slow or whatever. PW then goes in search of an energy player. He brings in JT or Brockman or Udoka or whomever and Hawes winds up sitting on the bench. Hawes has been so up and down this season I don’t know what to expect from night to night.

WIth the 1st pick you'd have to.
We’re probably not getting it and we already have Reke who is similar to Wall. So a big with huge upside is next.
My dream scenario
is Kings getting the 2nd pick through a fortuitous bounce of the ping pong balls and picking Favors, that way there’s no what-ifs about Wall and we can go on our merry way with a Huge Upside guy who is also a need.

Yeah. I don't want to be "that" team whom decided against choosing for a possible "superstar"
It’d be the Blazers all over again with the Durant crap.
What does that mean?
Isn’t “need” a pretty good reason?
The Kings would probably consider taking Wall and trading him if they got the 1st overall pick.
They would most likely demand the shedding of a contract and getting Favors (or another big) instead.

Durant was clearly one. I’m not sure everyone in the NBA felt that way about Oden. I do know the Blazers felt Roy was going to be a franchise player.

Agree
We need another post up defender…someone who can block shots, and guard the center/PF positions. I’d rather see 1 less guard and 1 more big than to trade a big for a big. It will still leave holes when that player is in foul trouble.

Why is Casspi getting rewarded for Reke's assist?
Sort of making me mad. Hopefully it will be corrected. Reke took over the end of regulation. 27 points, 10 boards, 7 assists, and a steal. And most of his misses were just his perimeter shot. Once he starts hitting those, game over.

More cool stats
2 Kings with double-doubles (Reke and JT) and Omri was 1 board away, with Donté being 2 boards away.

Team win
Yes, we’re happy about Kevin, but this was a TEAM win. Everyone stepped up and that’s good to see. The Kings are far from good prduct but if they play well for enough time, they could be good. Gotta love this team
"Children want what they want when they want it." ... Andy Sims
great point
they don’t win this game unless they all come up big in the end
"I make love to pressure" - Stephen Jackson
Only guys whose play I was disappointed in
were Noc and Sergio. Beno and Spence didn’t get burn, but everyone else contributed. Omri could have had 30 if his 3s were falling. Donté had a couple bonehead plays, but a great game overall. Gotta love his potential. I get the feeling he could be a 20 PPG scorer as soon as next year.
Father of the "Natt this!" movement, Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order, and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
Not to blow my horn
But love being one of the few that was behind Donte the whole time. It’s great to see him put it together
"Children want what they want when they want it." ... Andy Sims
Kind of late
But I too have always loved Donte’s game. Loved him and college, and was glad we got him for Artest.
If Aykis is right (which as an editor of this fine blog, I assume he will be) having three potent scorers in Tyreke, KMart, and Donte will be pretty awesome next year. Now lets draft Demarcus Cousins and call it a day.
I'm proud that he's correcting his mistakes
Not as many ill-chosen three point shots, better defense.
One thing he’s going to need to learn more in my opinion is to stay on his feet when he has the ball.
I was on the Donté has great potential wagon.
But I will admit that I wanted him to stop shooting 3s. He’s proven to be quite good at it this year, and I can see him hovering around 40% for the rest of his career, and that’s good for a 3 point shooter.
Right now my Rashard Lewis comparison is holding up, but he’s throwing in great defense as well. I don’t think any of us thought he’d be this good on that end of the court. Like a Lewis/Josh Smith hybrid.
Father of the "Natt this!" movement, Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order, and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
actually i have a question about Greene
why are his PER numbers so bad?
Could some of you maybe use a condom once in a while?
His rebounding was below average because he played 2 guard for awhile.
No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
PER weighs rebounding way too heavily
It’s why most bigs have higher PERs than guards.
Father of the "Natt this!" movement, Grandmaster of the "Never let AnotherStupidSN forget what a Sham-Wow is" Order, and Originator of the "Brock Ness Monster".
PER is just a stat
it’s a tool to understand a part of a players game not the magic key to knowing how good a player is.
I hate PER
I like the idea behind it, but I hate the specific implementation of PER chosen by Hollinger: “Alright, I’m going to fiddle around and randomly add weights to different statistics till I get a nice correlation between the stat I produce and what I view as quality players. Then I’m going to base my entire career off of it.”
I hate PER.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
you don't hate PER
you hate Hollinger, which is fine.
PER=Hollinger! I hate Hollinger = I hate PER!
I love advanced stats, and I think a stat like PER is great to have, but the specific implementation devised by Hollinger isn’t vastly intelligent, for a few reasons. Neither the time nor place to talk about it now. This is just a random pet peeve of mine.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
I agreewith your Hollinger hate
but just because he created the stat doesn’t make the stat irrelevant.
Haha
I didn’t say it was irrelevant, I just don’t like it’s specific implementation. I would like something very similar to it if the ratios for the constants were more scientifically determined.
I use PER all the time. But I hate it. It’s like my college car – didn’t have time to fix it, didn’t have the money to get a batter one, so I just used it, and it got me where I needed to go, just not as well as I would have preferred.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
Omri missed a lot of threes.
That is probably the main negative of the game, but Omri also rebounded the hell out of the ball.
Lew is better at defense than people realize.
No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

People don’t seem to realize how good he actually it is. Like, I never realized a $120 million dollar player could be underrated.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
That contract makes him overrated by default.

But much less than 120 million.

Why Orlando ever agreed to that is beyond me.
Seattle agreed to it because of the big TPE they got from Orlando. They used that TPE to acquire Kurt Thomas and 2 draft picks, and later by trading Thomas to the Spurs for another pick.
Still, I never got why Otis Smith and Orlando agreed to that.

I do you this favor, you help me out later type-of-thing? I’m grasping at straws, I have no clue why that happened.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
Otis Smith is a crafty motherucker.
Dude got Ryan Anderson and Vince Carter for Courtney Lee, got Dallas to drop the ball on Bass and still picked up Gortat. He still has his picks in an error when good teams get rid of them, and made some great draft decisions.
The dude knows what is up. Which makes the Rashard move even more confusing. Like, we’re all missing something. Either Lewis wanted the money to be happy, or Otis Smith thinks that sixth year expiring contract would be more useful, I have no idea.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
There was a point in time
Where some people might have been under the impression that Rashard Lewis was responsible for the sonics being good and not Ray Allen
yeah
That still does not explain the contract move.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
well
Just by browsing BaRef real quick they probably figured they were getting a 6’ 10" SF who was 27 and had averaged 20 ppg the last three years with a TS% in the high 50’s, is he worth $120MM ? I’ve seen worse contracts given to much worse players.
yeah but
like, they outbidded themselves for him. Like, I understand signing him for that amount, but I don’t understand signing him for that maount when they could have done it for cheaper.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
wouldn't be the first time that a GM
even a good GM got sucked into bidding against himself. Heck just look at St. Louis this year and Matt Holliday.
probably not the real reason
but i remember otis smith selling it as a situation where the organization wanted to make sure that players knew that the Magic as an organization would take care of their players and they wanted to show that they would do anything to surround Howard with a championship caliber team
Could some of you maybe use a condom once in a while?

thought my Spanish background would help me through that. Wrong move, obviously, as I got really confused. Had to drop that class and get German instead.

Isn't Tagalog just the Phillipines version of Spanish?

No, actually. Tagalog is a whole different language.
But we do use a lot of Spanish words in our everyday conversation. A lot of English words too. “Sanwits” (sandwich) is accepted as a Tagalog word.
And there’s a dialect in Mindanao called Chavacano, which people term as “broken Spanish”. That’s really close to Spanish. Some other dialects also borrow heavily from Spanish.

Good.
It’d be disappointing if Filipino/a’s were just speaking broken Spanish and slang all the time. Depressing even.

Good win but...
What happened to Hawes? I couldnt watch the game, did he get hurt or did PW pull a cement shoes again on him?
And he could tell that in such few minutes?
Kinda jumping the gun if u ask me.
Worked out in the win column,
But whose to say how good the team could have played, and whos to say how it effects a young developing centers confidence (which is already shaky).
Don't forget there's a BtB
and the Pistons are a much better match up for Spence than the Kincks.
absolutely
But a 21 year old should have no problem back to back. If he does, than he is doomed (i dont think so).
PW never plays Spencer big minutes against teams like this

I didn't watch the Kings during the Mitch Richmond era so forgive me if I am wrong
but the Kings have never had a player who could or would put the team on his back in the 4th quarter. Someone who when the chips are down he says “F$ck it I’m going to win this game” Tyreke is that guy. We as fans are very lucky to have him. IMO there are very few players in the league who are like that every night. Kobe, Lebron, & Wade. You can make some arguments for a few more players like Brandon Roy or Joe Johnson. I am not talking about a clutch guy like Robert Horry who can come in & hit a couple of 3’s at the end of games or a Bibby. These guys are a different breed. As good as Nash, KG, CP3, & Paul Pierce are I wouldn’t trade Tyreke for any of those guys even in their prime. Lebron wasn’t even like this in his rookie year. Or second year. I’m not talking about stats I’m talkin about BALLS. Big balls, massive stones, cajones, balls of steel, brass balls. Call it what you want but he has them.
I love beating dead horses.
Mitch DID on many occasions put the Kings on his back during that era.
Tyreke is wonderful, though, no doubt.

I always laugh at what a true PG is.
I remember the days where the Kings went to the playoffs with post accident Bobby Hurley and Tyus Edney—the rookie—as the PG’s. A lot of that good that did the Kings in those years as a pass-first PG.

A much needed win for the team
And boy, the Knicks have to be kicking themselves for letting that one get away…but no apologies, a win is a win. Especially on the road.
Nice to see Kevin get hot and make a few shots. Hopefully, he’s finding that shooting stroke. Even better, I think we saw a glimpse of what the Kings are hoping from that backcourt – Tyreke penetrating at will, and alternately Kevin stretching out the defense.
It’s one game, against a bad team…but they have to start somewhere right?

GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
Ok, so now for some more calm observations
It was just the Knicks, it was just one win, and it was just one good showing by Kevin. Still a good win because it was on the road and because it was a team win with the best players taking over when they needed to (Reke in the 4th, Speed in Ot). Let’s hope the young guys can build on this and continue working towards consistency.
Big game tomorrow. A win could go long ways towards building confidence in this group and its individual member, really. It’s not like we’re going to start winning more games, we’re still not very good, but hopefully a couple more Ws can get this team back to playing teams close and reminding everyone why there’s so much hopefot the future.

3 years. That means 90 first round picks.
and 90 2nd round picks. Since nobody expects their 2nd round pick to be a “big player”, I’m assuming you mean 1st round picks and since 90 out of 90 players weren’t Centers and not nearly that close, I think you’re talking out of your ass.

I’m very disappointed in the purple uniforms, honestly. Everyone fell in love with the team at a time when their road jerseys were black. Changing them completely changed the identity of the team on the road. It was a bad change. I’d love to see the results of a poll regarding the color of the road uniforms on kings.com.

your right
2007: Oden looks to be a perpetual injury risk will never approach his potential, Horford and Noah I will give you, lets not start about Hawes
2008: Lopez is great, the other three are still in the wait and see mode, I think JT is the only one of the three with a career in the 10+ range, and that’s probably because of bias.

Donte at the 4?
I loved the lineup at the end of the game and even the ebb and flow of the substitutions to that point.
I thought the key stretch was those two Donte threes sandwiched around the Tyreke drive after the Knicks had pushed the lead to 15. Without that we’re sputtering into the close and there’s no OT.
Tyreke, Kmart, Omri, Donte at the 4, JT (or Spencer if he had been the hot one of the two). Nocioni still getting some minutes. Sergio and Brockman getting some energy minutes. Ime doing his defensive stopper in place of Kmart thing.
Beno and Spencer were the odd men out. And maybe that’s the way it needs to be.
I don’t know if that lineup will consistently work, but Donte needs to be on the floor and at the 4, where he can create some mismatches and spread the floor. Omri needs to be on the floor. And maybe Kmart needs to be on the floor whether he is sleepwalking or not so he can play his way into the game.
I also loved how Tyreke was having a terrible game until it was time to take it over.
That was a great win on the road over a crappy team, but a real shot in the arm for a team that really needed it. And maybe it can bring back some memories of what they were doing right earlier in the season, and it will carry over to a better second half. I sure hope so, because a team playing like they did tonight is a team we can believe in.

I like Donté at the 4 against these smaller teams.

Even against the bigger teams
He can shoot the 3s to draw them outside and then drive by them or beat them in the running game. He can certainly cover a lot of fours like Rashard Lewis, Jeff Green, Dirk, etc. — the finesse, outside shooting 4s.

Let's take Boozer as an example
Obviously a horse, and a very tough handle in the paint for Donte. But on the other end of the floor, is Boozer going to be able to step out on Donte when he’s hitting the threes or keep up with him when he’s running the floor?

Also, notice Greene's fouling trouble tonight
you put him in situations where he has to defend those bigs, he’s going to end up playing alot less, no?
Also, Boozer isn’t a beast in the paint in terms of blocking shots, so it won’t be as effective to draw him out. He’s a good post defender, but if that’s the case then won’t he just be switched defensively to the Kings’ post player?
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
Boozer and Okur
One of them is going to have to cover Donte, and neither one has the speed. Donte might actually be better to cover Okur since he likes to shoot threes.
Donte would also be a natural to cover guys like Bargnani. Didn’t see the Raptors game, did Donte ever get that chance?

The Kevin Martin Thing
Here’s the angle that no-one seems to be presenting on the KMart vs. Napear situation. It’s obvious to me that Napear is trying to spark something in KMart, as he’s a smart enough guy and knowledgeable enough to know what a productive KMart can mean to this team. I’ll even take it further and say that given how intertwined Napear is with the organization, that his blatant attack on Kevin did not come as a surprise to some people at the Kings, and was probably approved by them with the hope that it would have the desired effect.
He did exactly the same thing to Beno last year.
Yeah it sure worked in Beno's case too.

I would argue
that the plan is not elaborate at all, but a simple attempt to light a fire under the guy after some questionable remarks from him after the Suns game.
For the record, I think the plan is will not be successful in that KMart as quite capable of sorting the his current slump out all by himself.
Not a good theory. Listed above.
He didn’t attack Kevins game, he attacked Kevins character – called him weak mentally and a bad teammate. That’s not how to light a fire underneath a player.

i dunno if it was just cockiness
I had a few odd run ins with him. Her’s another that to this day makes no sense to me and is kind of hard to explain but it was weird

I was heading home from class later in the spring of 2006
and in front of me i notice it’s Morrison’s truck. He’s not driving, he is in the back with two other guys and I am stuck driving behind them on Cincinnati street which goes through campus.
Anyway going about 10 mph behind them, going over speed bumps and minding my business all of a sudden all three guys (including Morrison) whip out giant bags of cheetos. Huge bags in each hand. And they start just straight up chucking bags of cheetos at a bunch of freshman girls walking out of the dorms and going to class

That is lame. Cheetos?

if it was not cheetos then it was kettle corn
i had sunglasses on. either way it was odd

i had another odd run in at Stanford once
was at some random frat house and some dude in his underwear comes down the stairs, shaking a gallon of milk, and is listening to his iPod singing “My Milk Shakes Bring all the Boys to the Yard.” Um, yeah it was that kid from Boy Meets WOrld. The Younger Savage. Just weird.

I see them straight up hit a girl in the face but the best part is that there is a cop car literally 30 feet in front of them at the intersection. Lights go up and they get pulled over and there is not enough room for them to pull over all the way

cop doesn't do dick
and I end up wiht like 6 guys (including the cop) staring at me for like 3 minutes waiting for me to drive around them.
I dunno it was just a real weird random thing. I thought i was high or something. Never heard anything on campus about a prank or anything.

i dunno if your more of a Noce fan or a Kings fan
but for Noc’s sake, i actually would hope he gets a shot somewhere else where he can get a more consistent role

Noce fan. Fan of Bulls too.
Kings are my beloved adopted team. My sister and parents live there. Plus they and the Blazers team of the late 90’s/early 2000’s were my best bets for toppling the Lakers.

He's my choice for the rebuilding 2
after Kmart is dealt. Physical like Tyreke, runs the floor, shoots the 3, drives well. A good fit.

Shooters are important
Few can shoot it like Kevin can. As Kevin & Reke figure each other out some, and I see signs of that already honestly, that’s going to make Kevin more valuable to the Kings IMO.

Yup
Whether or not you wanna see him go, it’s a good thing to have Kevin shooting like Kevin again.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
You need so many things to be successful.
Interior and perimeter defense. Shot Blocking, rebounding, the ability to create turnovers. You need to have shooters, guys who can get to the FT line, guys who can shoot the mid range game as well as from the deep perimeter (Mid Range is not 20 footers btw—it’s more of 8-16 ft), guys who can score at the basket consistently both on the block and on the drive, guys who can score with the ball in their hands, guys who can score without the ball in their hands.
The Kings have some of that, and need some of that. Mostly what they need is interior defense, and personal growth from the young talent. This core is already here. All that is really missing is a real strong defensive presence.

I thought he & Reke played really well vs Utah and Charlotte too.
I realize both were losses.

actually felt that way with the Utah game too
I definitely started as a Tyreke NaPG. Other than the stuff Hightop alludes to (which can either show growing pains or just situations with coaching) about assists in the paint, I am pretty darn happy with the situation

If that's the biggest aspect of Reke's game from the passing standpoint that you have to be worried about
There are a lot of G’s in this league who would be considered to not be PG’s either. It’s not a huge issue in my mind Wally. Never will be.

I dislike Rondo.
He might be the most overrated player in the NBA right now. I don’t know how to explain why I dislike him, but I just do.

Meh. He is overrated, but that doesn't mean he isn't very very good.
GREENE! You’ve been superfluously apostrophe’d! - andy sims
Maybe it's not his Rondo. Maybe I just hate the entire broadcast genre that kisses his ass because he's "Rajon Rondo" like it's some special inherent characteristic that only he has.

The hype machine for big-city sports is ridiculous
He’s overrated because he plays in Boston. The city even made Ray Allen insufferable, and I frikkin loved Ray-Ray.

Ray-Ray was always an insufferable jerk.

Disagree.
He may play for a major market team, but Rondo gets hype because he is a very good player.
by Phil Perspective on Feb 9, 2010 11:21 PM PST up reply actions
He gets hype because of his stats.
If he didn’t play with Ray Allen and Paul Pierce, he would be pretty exposed. Good for him & the Celtics, but that doesn’t convince me he’s a front line player.

Reke is passing the ball a lot better
He still rekes as an outside shooter, but maybe he can shoot 50,000 threes in the offseason and come back as Pete Maravich next season.
I thought Tyreke got away with at least two offensive fouls tonight trying to push Al Harrington out of his way. Actually it was more of a straightarm.

That was Brockman's best game in a while
Good to see, especially that little foul line jumper on the pass from Noc. He was creating some extra possessions again tonight.

Did you think
Kmart was going to miss that last three in the corner when he had all night to line it up?
Sometimes those wide open shots are the hardest to make. I remember Nocioni having a similar shot from the other side of the floor to win a game early in the season when his guy fell down, but he just tried to be too perfect with the shot.

I never assume a shot goes down. But it was nice to see that wide open 3 splash through.
