Joakim (best in the L)
Hibbert
Fright
Bosh
Duncan

are all better. The kings are actually trying to win games and yet they have the worst record in the league. They have a decent squad and should be at least in the hunt for the 8th seed if Cousins was the best center in the league like so many claim. Kings are one of the worst defensive teams and his numbers are inflated.:applause:

Joakim-best passing C, DPOY candidate amazing allaround game on a team riddles with injuries and low talent
Hibbert-DPOY favorite, most intimidating rim protector in a long time. Best record in the league
Fright-efficient, strong defense, easily best player on Htown in an easy playoff spot
Bosh-best offense center, underrated defender him and Bosh have been 2nd to Wade defensively this season. 2nd best record
Duncan-still on the same field he was last season but only a lil worse

Most people list him as a PF. Plus he's pretty bad at rebounding and defending centers and doesn't really play like one. Whatever though.

Kings are collectively bad at defense. Nobody on their team is a good defender. They need to find a defensive minded PF and SG, like Taj Gibson and Tony Allen. If they had those 2 instead of Jason Thompson and Marcus Thornton they would have a great record.

Of course. And DMC has improved his all-around game from last season. From a skills standpoint, he's easily one of the best Centers in the league... but he still needs to work on improving his intangibles.

If he wants to be a franchise type player, he needs to do more than just play good basketball.

I agree, but he is a top 5 center. Apparently his attitude is improving, now we just need some better players.

I like Cousins and he is a top 5 C but there I something seriously wrong within the Kings team and he could very well be the source of it (I'm not sure what it is). The biggest problem is just his effort the last 3 games it's been ****ing shocking and you can literally see him quit during a game. For a guy who actually can defend well when he wants he just chooses not to.

Unlike a lot of the other top 10 C's the difference between his best and worst is massive. He's also unlike the start of the season stopped moving without the ball (which he should be doing more often to get cheapies) and started with his bullshit, bricking mid range jumpers and trying to force his way through double and triple teams. He always goes away from what's working which I don't get, his half hook is lethal and his Tim Duncan bank shot as well but he just rarely uses them.

I predict there will be some sort of explosion within the Kings players really soon something's not right atm.

I can't imagine it would be fun to be the best player on that shit team. They need to bring in a veteran big and some reliable perimeter shooters. Shaq probably hasn't done shit with DMC

Which is exactly why he's got to do all the little things and stop quitting/bitching during the middle of a game. He needs to go back to being a passer out of the post more often and making players like Mclemore/Thornton/Williams/Thomas better. No one is forcing him to take terrible contested shots from midrange or getting tripled in the post. He's to talented to be taking shots, make someone else better.

Recently he's been screaming at his teammates for not playing D and he's getting outworked by Henry freaking Sims and Gortat......

Yeah I know, his attitude is taking a step back for some reason. He got me excited at the start of the season. I do feel we should bring in some better wing players though, Thornton needs to be gone.

At this point I would not mind of a complete roster flip except for Cuz/Acy all these dudes on the Kings are soft and don't give a shit. Something's got to change this is like 7 straight seasons of losing these guys have pretty much conditioned themselves to loss.

I think Cousins mentality is "No one else gives a shit so why should I?". Rudy Gay might walk to Phoenix, which I don't mind. Would be nice to get a Ryan Anderson (barring injury) or Larry Sanders. I actually miss Tyreke :oldlol: That's desperate

No defence no effort and three ball stoppers on offence without anyone else that's capable. Next to zero playmaking and the IQ of the team in general is rock bottom.

Lack of effort and the losing attitude. Our perimeter players are f*cking horrible, Gay and Williams have good nights and bad nights, our defense is terrible and lack of heart. We need some reliable shooters, a veteran and some defense. Boogie and Acy are the only ones who give a shit

Rudy Gay will leave imo and the Kings will probably overpay to keep Thomas, while Gay,Cuz and IT trio has been better than anything in the last 7 years it still looks crap. At least one or two of the three will probably be gone/should be gone.

DMC is so much better than he was last year. I wanted to get rid of him last year and this past week he has looked like that player from last year. Not sure if it was the final allstar announcements that has sent him into last year's attitude or what.

Something teams are figuring out is that you only have to guard 3 players on the entire roster. 10 of the players can't make an open shot. Kings don't play D and until they figure it out they will continue to lose, pretty simple. The last few games they have been back to leaving perimeter shooters wide open. They were starting to figure that out but they gave up on it. Not sure why Thorton gets any minutes since he just stands around on both ends of the floor, but Ben is lost out there too.
