Maybe she shouldn't say "put a sock in it" but this is "kingsfans.com". I'd expect more pro kings post then anti kings. If you want to see more criticism maybe start a ihatekings.com Or ThisIsWhatIHateAboutTheKings.com if they not already taken.
Or at least have legit complaints that you can back up with better ways than "not everyone played high school ball, im just trying to halp!!"

If someone offers something nice for Kosta, you have to consider it:

Open up WCS and DMC, and I don't think Papa would be a total liability in limited minutes.
4pts, 4rbs, 1 blk in 6 minutes. Thought he looked good in defense. Nice touch on his one post move. Between his development and Malachi's, someone needs to give Darrick Martin a raise for what he's doing in Reno.
 
Mclemore and Collison got absolutely abused in the 3rd. BMac looked like a dear in headlights against Klay and Collison must have had 4 or 5 aweful turnovers in a few min span. If there was even a glimmer of hope for BMac over the last few games playing better, he just brought everyone back down to earth and showed the inconsistent non aggressive play that we're used to seeing. Absolutely no fight in his eyes.

Not going to blame anyone for tonight's loss.

Even by Warrior standards, the 3rd quarter was ridiculous. Entire team is gassed. Down to eleven active players with three of them being rookies. Then to start the second half, Afflalo goes out with tightness, leaving you with a non-big man rotation of Barnes/Ben/Collison/Malichi. And that was all.

There is nothing Ben or any other individual defender in the league could have done against that onslaught. You need a team of 5 guys playing defense to their maximum potential to stop that team from killing you when it goes on those kinds of runs.
 
No offense, but lame attitude.
Lame attitude? I'm defending Ben and the rest of our team. Its the freaking truth. When the Warriors are hitting 30 ft 3's there is little any single player can do. You can't get your balls in a bind because the Warriors go God mode on you. You have to fight through it and move on to the next game.

Maybe you're right. Ben and Collison should go in the dog house because they couldn't stop Curry and Klay in the 3rd. It disgusts me how incompetent they were.

Your "no offense" preface doesn't make up for the fact that your comment is designed to do just that.

What happened to that clown who criticized Vlade for getting ride of our last dleague coach.

Look, I didn't mean any personal offense by it. I was looking for that type of comment to show up. That being said...to reply to your last statement, if anyone has their 'balls in a bind' it is you, as you referred to the opponent going 'God mode'. It's not like they're in a different basketball universe.

I'm not blaming anyone for the loss. I said McLemore and Collison got abused in the 3rd period. I figured we were going to lose this one but I can't stand to watch a stretch of basketball THAT bad. For 8-10 minutes in the 3rd McLemore literally couldn't guard anything and basically became invisible on offense. Collison had absolutely terrible turnovers one after another and his demeanor didn't seem to change at all. You'd think you'd be mad at yourself for almost single handedly giving that 42-15 run to the Dubs. Worst quarter of basketball I've seen in a while and that's saying something watching this team night in night out. That second half really put a downer on the previous 4 games for me.

That's just PTSD from that game.
 
Good thing about a whooping like this is the team is in a good place mentally to learn from it. They are likely to grow from this rather than spiral into hopelessness, which would have been the danger last year. You can just feel the difference with Joerger at the helm.

Take your licks on this one and rest up for a week and come back against the Nuggets ready to inflict what was just done to you, and then tear through the home stretch with something to prove. Sounds about right, no?

I would say their shooting ability during those hot streaks is from a different universe. They are so good in fact that they have literally turned shots that would normally be considered "bad basketball", which would normally get players benched, into completely acceptable and even promoted shot attempts, which is why I think their play style is bad for basketball in general. I'm not going to look down on any individual player for not being able to shut down Klay or Curry because there is almost no one who can.

You need to be big, long and quick, and have license from the refs to get away with rough play to beat Warriors: bothering them with physicality(big), getting deflections(long), transition defense(quick) and offensive rebounds(big) allow you to somewhat contain their offense, plus deflections and offensive rebounds give you high percentage shots.

Or if you can just transform your PG into GOAT for 4 games, that might be enough as well.

This is the very definition of blaming someone.

I wasn't on high ground to begin with... haha but ur al bundy pull was good and pretty funny. Just ur personal pic could have stepped up the humor. Oh well...
I don't have any personal pictures to post; I don't like having my picture taken. TTBOMK, the last picture that was ever taken of me was on my son's first day of kindergarten.
