Re: Kings vs Bucks

You are off to a great start. Putting Mason in th backcourt with Evens and move McGrady to SF gives you a very potent Offensive and it's pretty great when your Bigs can combine for 30/30, but wow 53 points from Jennings in the loss is what really stands out....


Looking forward to seeing what kind of size you land in FA or the Draft this season..

Re: Kings vs Bucks

Cavs are 0-7?! What happened, LeBron fall in a hole or something?

This is looking good though bro. I could almost predict you picking up either McGrady or Carter.

You know it bro, I've got to have my favorites haha, McGrady was computer offered though.

The Cav's are 0-7 because LeBron was picked up by the Bulls in the off-season, and Mo Williams has been hurt since the start of the season. You can check that and a lot of other big trades by reading the very first post. All the big names moved except for Wade.

Oh, and how's summer treating you man?

Yeah, I'm not sure if I'll stick with that lineup or not, but I'll keep it until I find a better one.
As for Jennings scoring 53 and still losing, its because he was pretty much the only one who could score for the Bucks. Plus, he was beating everyone up the court.

Kings Vs Cavaliers

Unbeaten No More

(6-0) Vs (1-7)

Since the loss of star player LeBron James in the summer, the Cleveland Cavaliers have fallen to the worst record in the NBA, and it doesn't help that veteran point guard Mo Williams is sidelined with an injury. So you can imagine the shock the Kings' received after leaving Ohio with their first loss of the season.
"I was unpleased with the way we played, and to be honest with you, I'm thinking we made some huge mistakes in the off-season; or at least that's the way it looked tonight." That's just one of the statements made by General Manager Geoff Petrie. The Kings' went into half-time trailing by 8, and mustered a small comeback, but thanks to a 3-point bucket by point-guard Daniel Gibson, the Kings' lost by one, 89-88. Antawn Jamison was the player of the game putting up 30 points and grabbing 13 rebounds. Tracy McGrady led the disgruntled Kings' team scoring 32, Donte Greene added 16, and Tyreke Evans and Dale Mason combined to add 21.
"We've definitely got to get back in our groove," stated McGrady, "We went in with a big head and came out with a bag over it."
The Kings' head to Indiana Saturday to take on the 4-3 Pacers.

Re: Kings Vs Cavaliers

Ah, sweet. A Kings dynasty. In my Kings dynasty I wound up rebuilding and making a few trades to get draft picks (I used actual draft classes). Its 2013-2014 season now, last season I signed Trevor Ariza and this season I signed Josh Smith. I didn't have enough minutes to make everyone happy, so I traded Donatas Montiejunas, Josh Smith, and Xavier Henry to the Magic for Dwight Howard.

My core 7 rotation now is this:
PG-Tyreke Evans-93
SG-Malcom Daniel-72
SF-Trevor Ariza-79
PF-Hassan Whiteside-72
C-Dwight Howard-94

PF-Ed Davis-70
SG-William Buford-69.

My entire lineup is above 6'6 and I have 4 years of Ariza, 5 of Dwight, and 6 of Tyreke. Kings dynasty incoming.

Nice!
This is my first dynasty with the Kings, I mean I'm not even a big fan of them, I just wanted to take a not-so-good team and turn 'em around. Sounds like you did just that.

Antawn Jamison was brutal, and I just knew this would be the team to take us down. It always happens that way.

Kings VS Pacers

The Kings Are Back On Track


VS
(7-1) (5-3)

Two nights after suffereing their first loss of the season, the Sacamento Kings went in to Indiana to take on Danny Granger and the Pacers.
"It wasn't an easy feat," stated rookie Dale Mason, "but a win is a win, and that's all that matters."
Kings head coach Westphal was in complete disagreement with the rookie's statement.
"We took stupid shots, our defense was incredibly bad, and our offense was scattered everywhere. Rebounding was pathetic, hustle was nowhere to be found, and personally I think half of us were more concerned about the food being sold in the stands. We got lucky tonight, plain and simple."
The Kings defeated the Pacers 100-98 thanks to a the go ahead basket by Tracy McGrady with 22.7 seconds left. The Kings are atop the rankings out west with an impressive 7-1 start. Player of the Game honors were awarded to Troy Murphy who grabbed 15 rebounds and scored 29 points. The high man for the Kings was McGrady coming out with 40, Hawes finshed with 16, and Mason added 13 of his own. Landry and Evans also scored in double digits. Coach Westphal stated that a raincheck was in order for the team and they would definitley look like a different team going into Monday's game against the Orlando Magic (6-2).
