GAME THREAD: BLAZERS @ KINGS - JANUARY 7TH, 2014, TUESDAY, 7:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[RoyToy]

Wes and Nic not scoring

What did Barkley say about them again?

 

[Rhal]

Just because the guy is 5'9 doesn't mean its an automatic charge. honestly didn't catch it but from the look on LMA face i'd say it wasn't

 

[VenomXL]

How is Dame not taking every shot right now?

 

[LuckyShot]

Is it just me, or was Thomas a) not even fully in front of Aldridge and b) not set early enough? Looked like he slid in and Aldridge was already taking off toward the hoop.

Because he's the only one hitting and the Kings know it.

There should be no more talk about a weak bench when you have an offensive jauggermaut sitting on it.

You may not be able to sit on him coach.

 

[KingSpeed]

Bench with 16 points tonight.

Something must be done.

Scoring isn't the problem. It's the 111 given up on the other end.

Not a charge at all.

These refs making ticky tack momentum changing shit calls all over the place. Not all in favor of kings but seems like any chance at a momentum swing and whistles blow.

He's easy to take out of the game. Double him hard on the ball screen that we insist on setting over and over and over.

Charles hates them...

 

[LuckyShot]

Thompson has bumped Lillard like that every time he's hedged out on a ball screen.

111 points and the Kings haven't scored in quite a while. They were well on pace for almost 120. The defense is what it has been most of the season...they were just shooting lights out from '3' and it covered up a number of issues.

It's the Brandon Roy defense, and McMillan never learned how to counter it. Maybe Stotts will?

 

[VenomXL]

Brutal road trip coming up. Not a lot of time to get their mojo back.

38 Free throw attempts. You can't defend the free throw line.

It's a huge problem in the NBA

 

[KingSpeed]

Lillard's scoring isn't a problem. He has 27.

My magic 8-ball says "signs point to no"...

 

[Natebishop3]

Crazy range. Just crazy.

 

[Rhal]

Its kind of amazing that we have 8 more fouls then the team that averages the most fouls a game.

 

[KingSpeed]

30. They haven't defended Dame well. Enough of that talk. It's our D.

A game like this with a billion ticky tack fouls called hurts us more than them. We rely a lot on getting into a flow or rhythm. They just play rat ball.

I know, I don't even know why I bother to complain anymore. Refs jobs should be on the line if they Fucking suck but they are untouchable

 

[VenomXL]

Dame has 20 in the quarter.

Death by a thousand small cuts.

 

[LuckyShot]

Maybe Dame should go off before we get down by 20. This is why we lose most of the games where he scores over 30. He doesn't turn it on like this until it's too late.

 

[rasheedfan2005]

And we are going to lose by 2-3 like someone said just to raise my blood pressure.

 

[Natebishop3]

Clear out and let Dame go one on one.
