Gameday Open Thread -- Sacramento Kings
by Ben Golliver on Nov 24, 2008 4:22 PM PST
Email
PrintI'm heading out the door for the Rose Garden. It feels great to write that again. In just a few short hours there will be professional basketball here in Portland. Hooray.
Will there be a loud, awkward confrontation between Spencer Hawes and myself as we point/counterpoint about destiny and fate? No, there will not (knock on wood). But there will be a matchup pitting the Oden-starting Blazers versus the Purple-donning Kings.
And there will be a first.

And I do believe it is Spencer Hawes’ destiny to be Ostertagged throughout Greg Oden’s career. I’m sorry, it’s not a glamorous job but someones got to do it.

So I am going to the game tonight
Anybody have any thoughts on if this will be as big a win as the last game against the Kings?
What do you think playing a team twice in a short time means?
King's probably won't want to be steamrolled the second time in a row
Plus the last game both teams were on the second game of a back-to-back, one solid run won’t destroy them like it did the last game.

i beleive
the kings will be hungry for a win but tired from the lake show last name. hawes is gonna get dunked on all night. he might even get some backboard shards on him wen greg brings it down. blazers by a close margin.
should be a good game
but im tipping the blazers by 10, scores might be close at the half, but the blazers have too many weapons for the kings.
kings will be much better with a full lineup, for now blazers will remain undefeated at home
Is Kevin Martin back yet?

Gets away with a lot of crazy flops, although I doubt that will be the case at home, against Oden.

The key to successful flopping
Is wild floppy hair!
Verajao and Moore got it down. It creates more movement that catches the ref’s eye, and makes any flop all the more dramatic.
Joel needs to grow his hair out and get it jherri curled, so it just flops all over the place and he starts getting calls from the racist refs.

And get us flopping calls in our favor.

I really hope...
LMA will show up tonight. I want to see him stand out for the whole game, not just in spurts.
I really hope
Outlaw decides to stay away from dribble dribble fade away on 2 ppl high arching jumpshots and sticks to open threes and assists to rudy
outlaw looks great
when he takes it to the basket, his superior athleticism really helps and can put the opposing big men in foul trouble, if we can get brad miller in foul trouble early, it will almost certainly guarantee us a win, considering he is probably their best passer, and the kings best perimeter shooter.
Oden
6 for 10fg 4 for 6 ft for a line of 16 pts 11 reb 3 blocks 2 assists 1 steal 3 turnovers and 5 fouls
Outlaw
can be a fine driving force to draw fouls. unfortunately he tends to not go up strond and do crappy fadeaways instead. if he had the heart of a lion he would have alot more dunks and FT ATTEMPTS than he does
possibly the issue is
we have an excess of finesse players, oden is our only really power player in the paint, although joel is doing an excellent job converting opportunities! if outlaw and LMA were more aggressive in the paint some positives could come from that
yup yup
34 3 pointers = A LOSS a fair amount of times. look at the boston celtics demise with antoine walker and paul peirce jacking up 30 threes a game

"Feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcreaft, destroy capitalism, and become lesbians. [speech at GOP Presidential Convention 1992] Rev. Pat Robertson
i love it
i love the move for oden and the team. finally, some continuity can be made with roy and lamarcus.
i really want one time for him him to absolutely destroy spencer hawes. im really surprised with how well hawes is playing, but come on GO. ur bigger, ur better, ur a beast. let all the aggression out on him for one thunderous earth shaking dunk. then, after that, work on your post moves and pivot work. pass out of the post as masterfully as u always do. most importantly, let ur presence be known on the Defensive end. ur help D is most essential for this team’s eventual success. ur best self doesnt have to show any time soon, but as long as progress is made and seen, this season should be very nice.
If Oden gets a double double,
I will be very pleased.. Even a 12-7 would be fine by me

almost as cool as having a birth day on the last day of feb. in a leap year
Whoever was posting Oden up....was just stupid.

Another win at home would be great
And it’s a game we SHOULD win and there will be hand wringing if we don’t, but I agree that the Kings shouldn’t be taken lightly. Like Dave points out, they can score, and that gives them a chance in any game.
If our defense is still poor and we can’t buy a bucket, it could be a surprising night for us.
We gotta make sure it is BRANG!

so they always have a punchers chance in any game, kings are not nearly as bad as OKC
Wow
i watched a okc game vs boston i think. Im not even sure if boston was trying but okc looks sooo bad. durant is def. a volume shooter and not someone we need or needed in pdx.
all kneel and praise pritchard
Denial ain't just a river in Egypt.
hard to say
i think durant is good, hard to say how he would go in a more structured offense like the blazers
yea
i no he deserves a chance but let oden make a couple of all star games b4 durant hits his stride. hes no lebron though

Blocks only count if your team wins
New rule, the NBA just started it this year.
Sadly, the block existed in the game itself, but once the game is over and the Kings lost, any block(s) Hawes had on Oden don’t technically count.
Hey, I don’t make the rules, don’t look at me.

LMA should have passed to Oden for the easy slam. Instead a hook and a miss... ANOTHER miss.
"Sergio is clearly the MJ of 3rd string point guards!" —Mortimer Pritchard
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Batum called for the foul.
I won’t argue it. It’s close enough that Nic got in there late.
I disagree
the guy was running full speed in a straight line without looking where he was going i dont care if he had to jump a little for a bad pass thats a charge
lol love homer crowd

I remain convinced Pryz should start.
"Sergio is clearly the MJ of 3rd string point guards!" —Mortimer Pritchard
I'm ready to give Oden some time to mesh with the starters
Can’t blame you for wanting Joel though, he’s been great.
I like the theory that it's not so important who starts (Batum) as who finishes (Outlaw, Rudy).
……………….. and Pryz is nothing if not steady. Oden is pretty geeky out there…
"Sergio is clearly the MJ of 3rd string point guards!" —Mortimer Pritchard
Joel's minutes really won't drop, I bet
A year ago Nate never played Joel in crunch time. But now he’s vital.
Oden UTTERLY BRICKS the oop attempt. Bad.
"Sergio is clearly the MJ of 3rd string point guards!" —Mortimer Pritchard
Replay gave it away... it was a little high when he doesn't have hops yet
He only got that on his fingertips. I had hoped he’d drop it gentler.
Oden tried dunk too hard

ugly first half
our TOs have been way way too high the last few games, especially when Oden has been in. Przy’s plus minus is (yet again) much better than Greg’s. Right now, we are just not very good when Greg is in. This is not all (or even mostly) Greg’s fault… but it’s a concern. We just become a turnover machine when Greg is in… and he isn’t really making an impact on D either.

"Sergio is clearly the MJ of 3rd string point guards!" —Mortimer Pritchard
I'm not sure.
He looks… okay. Not great. I think the bigger problem is that the other starters don’t know how to play with him yet. With practice and a couple more games under their belts, it should straighten out.
On that note, this game has proven that Travis CANNOT play with the starters. It’s just a bad idea.

People around here said they wouldn’t trade Aldridge for him before the draft.
LMA is good… but Rose will be great.
