Game -2: Sacramento Kings @ San Antonio Spurs, 10/20/14 5:30 PST 8:30 EST

[Jkbiker]

So maybe we have to go back to last season and start Evans to rebound next to Big Cuz and have JT and Landry score off the bench?

 

[Jkbiker]

So as shown in this game mabe Cuz, Rudy and DC scores as starters

and JT,Landry,Omri Nik and Ramon scores off the bench?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

i think i would rather roll with Landry next to Cousins than Evans

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

man, our PFs are just a pit. Can't believe JT talked about averaging a double double this year and then has come out like this in preseason. Could he be in decline already?

The sad thing about it is, he's still had arguably the most positive impact of any of our PF rotation tonight, just by virtue of mostly staying out of the way.

Why?

Reggie at least has something he does well.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

These San Antonio people are pretty terrible at doing the Carlton dance

Yeah but Evans and stay out of the way on offense and plus pull down bunches of rebounds
Jt has only 2 rebounds?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Why?

Reggie at least has something he does well.

He just clogs up the paint and basically allows the opponents to double team Cuz. And his rebounding would be more useful when he isn't playing next to a top rebounder like Cousins

 

[Sac.Kings]

So maybe we have to go back to last season and start Evans to rebound next to Big Cuz and have JT and Landry score off the bench?

This makes it really hard on Cousins though, if Evans started. He isn't an offensive threat, so Evan's man would immediately cheat to Cousins for a double team if need be. The person that starts next to Cousins needs to be at least somewhat of an offensive threat, and the player that bests fits that description is JT and possibly Landry, at least for now.

 

[Chicken Chaser]

Whoa, Cousins already played 30 minutes after 3 quarters? Monster stat line so far. Too bad we blew our lead since half-time.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

27pts 10reb 4ast in 30 minutes

 

[Bricklayer]

See that right there? that's why teams can't ignore Reggie Evans when he's on the floor.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Derrick Williams is the new John Salmons for me. Can't stand seeing him out there

Ok I am probably gonna get slammed for this one

What about starting Omri as a stretch 4 and JT as backup center with Landry

I was at the maccabi game , omri really did a good job I thought at getting the ball to Big Cuz, can probably provide more than 2 rebounds in 15 min, and still be an offensive threat so his man will not cheat to Big Cuz
He also brought a lot of energy to the 1st string in an otherwise sluggish game

I think that what he was doing in Houston also

 

[Sluggah]

even when it's mostly scrubs on the floor...the Spurs can still execute some pretty epic plays

 

[Bricklayer]

jesus, its like we're watching Sessions' evil twin br4other who's played on all those terrible teams over the years.

 

[Jkbiker]

Landry is doing great off the bench tonight 3-4 FG and 5-5 FT

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Bench has been pretty bad tonight

 

[206Fan]

Bench has been pretty bad tonight

Yep. No Casspi nor Stauskas tonight. Not enough players to stretch out the floor.

Works much better against Maccabi-Haifa then it does against LaMarcus Aldridge and Blake Griffin

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Not tonight.

 

[Jkbiker]

Works much better against Maccabi-Haifa then it does against LaMarcus Aldridge and Blake Griffin

absolutely would probably depend on the matchup - so when do we play Maccabi again this season? LOL

 

[Sluggah]

go Carl go!

 

[Bricklayer]

can't decide who's worse at closing out, Landry or Williams

 

[King Baller]

Spurs are going to win if they hit those corner threes.

 

[Sac.Kings]

We have been horrible guarding the 3 for as long as I can remember. Terrible closing out. Guys aren't watching the ball

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Yep still a huge problem. It's like Malone wants us to dare teams to shoot the 3. That strategy does not work in the NBA

 

[HereWeBoogie]

woah he put Cousins and Gay back in? strange

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Nice D Ray!

 

[c-webb1s#1]

Cousins so tired he couldnt jump for a dunk
