Good arm extension from Nowitski on that block. I mean screen.

[BuckeyeDan17]

I called it in my head.

[yo123]

Why does OJ Mayo keep getting matched up against Durant? That's not going to work.

[nobodyinparticular]

These announcers. "Sefolosha is so long. And active with his hands!"

[dabears10]

Durant is amazing. Just amazing.

[yo123]

WTF Mike James?

[Brodeur]

That was certainly a possession.

[nobodyinparticular]

That shot by Durant. So good.

[nobodyinparticular]

Btw that State Farm commercial with the Internet french model is even more amazing after Te'o.

[bantx]

Why Mike James?

[WMD]

Mike James can do whatever he wants to do. Don't question him.

This is true. He's Mike James, *****.

Damn Jrue Holiday is playing like the best pg in the game right now (playing like; not is). Talk about flying under the radar.

Also Gallinari Defense:

[Da-Phins]

God ************* damn it!

Rockets have been giving me a sad for too long now. Lost there 7th straight game tonight. You think they were the Bobcats or something.

On top of that, Harden is in quite a funk. Shooting less then 35 percent last five games. Guess thats what happens when you play four games in five nights in back to back weeks.

was at the kings-bobcats game tonight (free tickets 2 rows up from the court, wouldn't pay to see this game) and demarcus cousins is very frustrating to watch. guy has a ******** of talent, but he took 6 or 7 jump shots at least prob 10 feet from the rim and missed every single one of them. when he actually got inside he was dominant. he's also very lazy to hustle back on D, but he's a monster on the boards. he started talking **** to some bobcats fans with a couple seconds left in the game which was pretty funny.

This is actually Keith Smart's doing. Recently, Smart has had Jason Thompson as the guy in the block and Cousins out at the elbow. It's stupid. Before this past stretch of games, Cousins was playing down low and just beasting.

^This.

I had actually posted about exactly this a few days ago. No idea why we run the offense through Thompson in the post at stretches, when Cousins is a complete beast down there and he's a better passer since he's constantly drawing double teams. When Demarcus catches the ball at the elbow, he settles too much for the jumper at times, which he absolutely can make, but there's no need to.

I'm just completely ready to have this clown Keith Smart off the team already. I gave him a break last season since they didn't have an offseason to prepare, but there's no excuses for the way the Kings have looked this season. They've won the games they have simply because they DO have some talent and a top five C in the NBA. There is NOTHING on this team that tells you that they're well coached. The offense is abysmal, the defense is porous and Smart has no semblance of a rotation set up. It's like he draws straws to decide who gets to come off the bench that day.

**** YEAH Lindsey Hunter!
