how come the kings dont play shareef?

[zocool16]

not that I want the kings to play him...but I don't think I saw shareef more than 2 minutes in the game, and he was puttin on some good moves. why the heck don't they play him? I think he should start.

[Brutalis]

Just why didn't they play him? Seems very strange.

[KingsFanWithoutName]

Over his career, Shareef has played Duncan very well. He has kept him under his PER, and that is pretty hard to do. He also can score on Duncan in the post. I've thought for this whole series SAR should have gotten the start at center, but, I'm not the coach.

The Kings had better success starting Thomas this year. SAR comes in and spells either Thomas or Miller depending on the matchups, and during the regular season was on the floor most 4th quarters. He was somewhat like their Manu from a couple years ago--- he doesn't start but he's playing starters minutes, and usually playing during crunch time.

He had a bunch of fouls, I think. He can't really guard Duncan without getting into foul trouble.

[gameFACE]

He was in foul trouble last night - 5 PF.

[zocool16]

well I didn't see him last night at all almost

[CosmicCowboy]

well I didn't see him last night at all almost

five fouls in sixteen minutes will do that to you.

[mabber]

five fouls in sixteen minutes will do that to you.

Exactly! Wow, how can a Spurs fan watching that game not realize something like that?

[zocool16]

oh shoot really? wow i didnt know he was in foul trouble. my bad

[rayray2k8]

Foul trouble and so was Kenny thomas.

[T Park]

Duncan was agressive.

When hes agressive, Abdur Rahim is deemed useless.

There was one basket he got over Duncan and that was a spin move wich Duncan played right, but threw up a left handed hook shot.

Nothin ou can do about it.

Keep him farther away? Yeah, but, hindsight 20/20

Duncan went at Thomas and Reef all nght and got the calls.

It was awesome seeing Duncan play agressive again.

[mavsfan1000]

Abdur-Rahim can't pass, streaky shooter, and plays poor defense. Also I think Kenny Thomas is a better rebounder. Brad Miller is soft as well though. Kenny Thomas is the only respectable defender on the kings frontline.

sar hasn't done athing this series i am a little suprised but then again sometimes that just happens liek rich hamlition sucks when we play the pistons too guess we just shut down people

wells and artest i guess were getting most touhes since wells was on fire
