[Game] Kings @ Mavericks - Friday, Oct. 20 - 5:30PT

Not a fan of Randolph being our "Go To Guy" he is average at best these days. I mean it's Harrison Barnes
Dave got too nostalgic here, bailed out by hustle plays. I'll take it, but that last salty jumper was not cool. I'd want George pick and rolls or something to start.

Yeah if Zach isn't gonna back someone down I'd rather he pass. I don't want a contested Randolph 18 ft jumper in the final 30 seconds
 
One alarming thing I've seen is our scoring troubles, having a hard time getting to 90, and we still have slow starts.
It's Dave unfortunately. He's one of the worst offensive coaches in terms of scoring tallies, but he brings good defense, which is great for the youth we have to develop.
 
I shouldn't have ever criticized Vlade for his signing of the veterans. Now we all know why....

to make the Kings watchable! Our young guys are developing while learning to win and play as professionals
No disrespect, but wasn’t that obvious you just can’t throw young guys and say go play they need leadership
 
And Koufos isn't looking as bad as some were moaning, either.
No one is moaning. They are just speaking the truth! The guy moves like the Tin Man who needs oil in his joints. Premium high viscosity.

Koufos had a Red Carpet Path from the free throw line to the basket. Any big with skill would take one power dribble and slam that baby home...

He lets the ball squirt out of his hands like with someone foreign entity took remote control of his limbs.....he's pathetic!

Yes, some were moaning. You may not agree but that's not gonna change my perception. I'd just like to see one year where people didn't feel the need to find a player to aim all their vitriol at. He's not pathetic and he's nowhere near as bad as some would have you think. But, as always, there has to be someone to be on the receiving end of the hate.
 
In the scope of a season or long term you need to be developing a decent offense too...holding teams under 90 is great and all, and shows good defense, but it simply isn't going to work like that every night unless you're a GOAT defensive team. Scoring less than 90 isn't a viable enough offense plain and simple. So we need to score more hopefully after a few more games to show signs of a decent offense too.

Unless we are really a GOAT defensive team than forget everything I said.

We just played our SECOND game of the season. I think it's incredibly premature to be talking about viable offenses. We haven't even seen Bogs on the court yet - and I fully expect him to be a valuable part of our offensive schemes. I'm just advising a little bit of patience to let things develop. :)
