Duhon was trying to give the ball to Lee but was defended by the Kings zone. So that means no one else is worthy to take it. Tina trying to be nice and ask Duhon did you get the ball to right spots (seems to be the theme of the night). Duhon said yeah.

yep.

jeffreis man left him and all the kings clogged the paint. as nate made his move, chandler inexplicably ran to the basket also allowing his guy to collapse the paint also. that was a total clusterfrick...no way that play was on nate. he found the wide open guy who took the shot instead of re-setting.

You cannot fault the man for finding and hitting the open man. That's what he is supposed to do.

yet d'antoni basically blamed him in the postgame. not cool.

Way to inspire loyalty and confidence in the team there. Gotta love it.

LOL, there is a resentment on this team of the younger guys among some of these guys. Duhon thinks he got the ball where it needed to go tonight. Oh man. Coach there is a problem.

April sounds about right


We all know three things:

1) It's all about 2010.

2) Still hoping to reduce more salary by the trade deadline, so, until the deadline passes (next thursday) everyone who can be traded will play.

3) Until mathematically eliminated the team won't shift focus. Unfortunately even the worst teams aren't mathematically eliminated until April.

.......well, whatever. It's all about finishing off the bad salary mistakes of the past and building a new team. So, as painful as this is, there is finally a TRUE light at the end of the tunnel. Not an Isiah "one more MLE signing" light of the oncoming train.

& what happened to "developing the youth" mantra MDA & Walsh were preaching about a month & a half ago? still waiting for that phase of the plan to kick in... aaaaaanyday now.

I would say it is quite possible. Hopefully it is not a serious condition. Didn't Todd McCullough have similar symptoms before he had to retire?

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

Swelling in certain spots around the spine can pinch nerves and cause numbness in the extremities

Will say this. I thought gallo was on his way to a solid double-double before the mysterious injury.. but this team is just different without him.. the kings went zone and we didn't adjust.. teams don't respect our shooting when he is not on the floor it seems..

Chandler was a MAN out there.. And it is sad how this team is so damn selfish, chandler should have been milked.. Instead we go to jeffries in the post.. (LOL) then jeffries for three, and Al for a forced three and step back two vs a double team.. LOL.. wow.. great game for chandler.. just wasted.. 35/5/2/2

Lee doesn't box out and it killed us.. time after time, guys were throwing the ball at the rim and going over lee for tip ins. he just does not box out.. we got outrebounded, 59-39.

Dunon and nate were a hot mess at PG.. nate forced shots and drives late just killed us.. we had a big lead and gave it away with such jackass play...

Hill only plays 6 minutes, gives good energy and is active. and doesn't see the floor again..


while mike breen was jacking off to tyreke evans, the knicks were busy letting him go right... guy doesn't go left and he always does that spin move when he does. always... spins back right..... lee did the best job guarding him by laying off 10 feet and let him shoot that brick of a jumper..


Terrible loss.. just terrible..

That was a designed play for Jefferies. Jefferies took the ball out of bounds and moved directly to the straight away shot--Nate moved into the lane and spun around because he knew where Jefferies was--that play was for JJ--whatever they say.

I want to criticize Nate but it is hard when his coach is telling him that he is a shooting guard and they want him to keep taking it to the basket and on that play with Jeffries, the coach is upset that he didn't force the action to the rim. Don't know what to say.

Hmmm...didn't want to read the whiplash if he said that?

Ouch....who is this guy and why is he coaching? Or is that just the way it's done in the big leagues

Hoping Nate draws the contact and the foul?

I think so. Both Nate and D'Antoni were going nuts about the no calls he was getting. I don't like game plans like that but you put it on the officials too much.

If the Kings want their Future to stay in tact

Then keep this guy at a minimum of 50ft away from him at all times

Yes there is.

I can vouch for that. I get it.

I have been told my slipped disc sometimes pressures a nerve which causes my left forearm and hand to go numb. And it's not a ticklish numb it's a painful numb.

The worst time you ever smashed your funny bone type of numb. It just comes on by itself. It's weird. But it hurts and it renders my left hand pretty damn useless for some time.

DAMN IT! THE KINGS? GEEZ! I just got back to the Studio and I can't believe they wound up losing this game. What else can you say. This has been such a disappointment so far this year. It's like they try to find new ways to lose games they should win. How do they let the Kings score 118 points?

Didn't he hurt when he got fouled?
