[KingsFanWithoutName]

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

B.

[nkdlunch]

It's over for the Excremento QUeens

[ALVAREZ6]

good.


it's about in time, Horry hustles.

[clubalien]

thought we were going to put a whte guy on bonzi

[AFE7FATMAN]

shows Pop doens't know how to figure out the x's and o's so is relying on a roster tweak to solve an x's and o's problem :/

Nice

I wonder how many times this has been said and how many of us have been labeled POP haters for saying it since Bob Hill left.

I hope it works out, but it wreaks of desperation, and shows Pop doens't know how to figure out the x's and o's so is relying on a roster tweak to solve an x's and o's problem :/

Yeah, because all those guards on Bonzi worked wonders during the two games @ Arco.

[Solid D]

Half-time Kings 46-Spurs 43.
Horry has been so-so in the first 24 minutes.

Another weak offensive support by Finley (0 pts. in 14 min.), Barry (2 pts. in 11:44 min.) and Van Exel (2 pts. in 6:38 min.) off the bench.

Wells killing the Spurs. 8 TOs giving the Kings 7 more shot attempts.

Kings 5-10 on 3s
Spurs 1-7 on 3s

Awful 2nd quarter.

Why are the Spurs so weak mentally and physically? There is no excuse for this collapse should they lose this game.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Fin, Barry, and NVE. Give their shots to Duncan.

The Spurs are shooting 60% inside the arc, 83% FTs, and 10% threes. So why the are they continuing to shoot threes?

Horry starting is useless unless you are sticking him on Bonzi.

Horry 25MPG coming off the bench, getting some minutes against the 2nd stringers and playing the final 5 minutes of the 4th is where he is useful.

What's it matter when the entire offense and defense is playing like it is useless?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

This team looks like it did back when Phil Jackson owned Pop, and everyone on the team knew Pop didn't know what adjustments to make to change the flow of the game. Sad.

[ducks]

ahf why the are you not the coach because you know how to coach basketball
how to draft for the texans

Interesting. I give props to timvp for making this call, but it didn't really seem to matter too much to me. Even when we did have Horry on Wells, it wasn't so successful.

Once again Pop went mostly small ball- in the last quarter and a half, if I remember right, he used 1 of 2 bigs: Tim or Rasho and 4 of the following 6 players: Tony, Manu, Bruce, Brent, Finley, or NVE. Horry never played in the fourth quarter at all.

I find it ironic that a week and a half ago people insisted- even after knowing the match-up- that Rasho and Brent would hardly see the court. On the contrary, Pop has used them both in crunch time. Tonight Rasho never got much of a chance because of two quick BS fouls on two blocks of Bonzi's shots, but he played key minutes early in the fourth quarter. And Brent, he has become the emotional leader of this team.
