[killer123]

A corner three as well!

 

[Sac.1989]

fill up that boxscore boogie

 

[Sac.Kings]

No constant switching on defense.. wow it really is the simple things in life that you appreciate the most...

 

[206Fan]

Just from what I've seen so far, the floor spacing is really bad. The Kings seem to be really forcing the offense through Cousins. Rudy seems like an after thought. He's being used the same way Karl used him. Stand at the 3pt line, give him the ball at the 3pt line, make him create his own offense from the 3pt line.

Interesting to see this lineup experiment.

Pace on offense feels really fast.

good to see cousins' decision making going good, except for one boxout, or lack thereof. he missed a pass, but that's not due to decision making. liking what im seeing from cousins

 

[Bricklayer]

We do look good. Some unfamiliarity with the offense, but very professional.

Also amused by our response to the smallball trend -- let's play 2 centers and 4 postup players in the starting lineup.

 

[Sac.Kings]

We look solid. It's a completely different looking offense. Much more centered on passing the ball and post ups. Cuz is initiating a lot of the offense so far.

Yep! And guess who assisted it? Cousins! That will be a welcome change if our SG can knock down the passes from Cousins.

i liked how he told afflalo to post, and that got us a good shot, even though afflalo missed

 

[Sac.Kings]

Cuz is already looking to kill opposing centers 6 min in the first quarter lol.

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

Tolliver and Lawson first subs off the bench. Super interested to see how they affect the team.

 

[lawlman91]

cousins looking fressshhhh with that passssss

 

[Chicken Chaser]

We are playing basketball omg I can't contain myself

 

[whoopdeedoo]

Tolliver first big in for Koufos.

 

[Bricklayer]

looks like Tolliver first big off bench for Koufos. Experience.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Lineups look unconventional.. But I guess that's preseason. Hope we show well. Joerger said all players might play. Interested to see Isaiah Cousins and Lamar

 

[lawlman91]

oh my God this is how the kings should have been playing

 

[lawlman91]

nice sellll

 

[Bricklayer]

Cousins --> Koufos

Cauley-Stein --> Tolliver

Omri behind Gay, no Barnes

Ben behind Afflalo

Lawson behind Collison

 

[lawlman91]

liking that drive by mclemore. a bit too fade-away type of layup. take it stronger!

 

[miltonap]

Sexy

What's unconventional? Rudy is a SF, Afflalo is a SG. Boogie Can play PF and Koufos at center.

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

Ben has forced 3 shots.

He was probably talking about Boogie + Kosta. Comparatively heavy at PF compared to the rest of the league. As long as Boogie and Kosta can keep up, I don't see a problem.

 

[miltonap]

At least McLemore is being aggressive

 

[killer123]

The second unit with Ben being the main attacking guy approach is definitely not working

 

[lawlman91]

Ben has forced 3 shots.

His first shot wasn't great, but his second was a good decision but felt a bit rushed, and his third was completely fine.

 

[CurseOfTheSalmons]

Now that I look at the current lineup, I don't really see a #1 scorer. I guess Ben is supposed to be that guy.

 

[Bricklayer]

Casspi is being the active runner and cutter with the second crew instead of Ben.

Lawson I assume.
