[Game] Kings v. Celtics - 2/8/17 - 7:30PT/10:30ET

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Grant isn't screaming that's a flagrant within earshot of the refs.

Baby steps for Mr Napear.

He only does that when Cousins is involved.

 

[ParniValjak]

Nope best game all year... just no quit... how's that for a change... been years... I'll give Dave some credit here on his cheerleading.

And this is the sort of culture that some of us have been talking about. It is a great foundation to build off. This is what this season has been primarily about.

What you want to be known as is a team that other teams hate playing against because they know that they will be in for a touch night.

True. It's a flagrant/technical borderline arrestable offense if DMC did that.

And why can't DC play like this every single night?

 

[VF21]

I am afraid to say words. I may need to take a blood pressure pill and I don't have high blood pressure.

If you can't acknowledge the #HeartHustleEnergyEffort of our Kings tonight, you are NOT a Kings fan.

Big woot! guys no matter how this plays out.

Even bigger woot! given how it in fact did play out.

Never give up! Never surrender!

 

[glassman]

Not a bad shot by WCS

Yes, yes, ten thousand times YES!!!

 

[DesertFox]

You gotta think Collison has heard people talking about how the Kings shouldn't of traded IT, and is taking this one a little personally.

 

[gunks]

If we can make this Grindhouse 2.0 thing happen on a regular basis, I'd be a happy Kings fan.

 

[c-webb1s#1]

Wow, the entire team has really come together this game! I LOVE IT! Major props to the entire team from top to bottom

 

[SLAB]

"Toyota game summary, we'll start with Boston's Isiaiah Thomas."

My god, I hate you Grant.

Boston empties its bench down 102-86, 2:17 to play

WCS is a defensive monster folks.

You have to be tolerable rebounding. Just tolerable. Let's see it get there

[SLAB]

PAPA G!!!

 

[glassman]

Mother of gawd

 

[gunks]

This WCS fellow may not be that bust a lot of us had him pegged as after all!

 

[DesertFox]

This is a standing O performance. Bravo team and coach.

 

[jcwkings]

Well I was expecting to see Papa G and Skal, but maybe not by these circumstances. Well done good guys.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

It appears as though Isaiah "King of the Fourth" Thomas was 1-3 from the field in the fourth quarter. Did his teammates forget to remind him to wind his invisible watch?

 

[SLAB]

This team is weird. Lol

 

[gunks]

What a game! Well done, fellas.

 

[funkykingston]

What. A. Game.

WOW

 

[Larry89]

WCS emergence game???

 

[kingdivac]

Not really. We'll see if/when DMC misses any additional games and what happens then.

Notice some other players up'd their game or at least executed better against a "better" opposing team, and dynamics changed. Unless they bench Cousins (which will infuriate him rightly) I don't think you'll see any additional games. You might look at this 2 ways, Kings other players may not be as poor as some think, or Cousins may not be as exceptional as some think - or you could think of it as an oddity win since the organization seems to be fully onboard with long-term Cousins - in which case its simply another important win.. Maybe it could have a good effect on Cousins, who knows.

 

[dude12]

Heck of a win......DC sure was good.

 

[kingjatt]

Ball moved great, We had a defense scrambling for once. Guys really showed heart tonight and fought for that win great to see Willie look more comfortable out there!

 

[Suicide King]

 

[PurpleHaze]

One of these days Kings are going to go on long winning streak - one of these days.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

So, just to recap, we have a combined four wins against the top four teams in the eastern conference, and a combined two wins against the bottom four teams in the eastern conference. This ****ing team, man...

 

[DesertFox]

Honestly, the Kings could have folded in the first. But Boston didn't bring their A game. Or even their C game. And they got burnt for it.
