Would you trade for Cousins if the Kings don't demand CJ or Dame?

    Leonard is getting our hopes up again. He is actually a good defender down low, but the farther he gets from the basket the more lost he becomes.

    That hair has got to go! It's ridiculous.

    I believe that Turner's last year was 19.5%, so this is not that unusual for him.

    yep,,,,his scoring was clutch in getting us into overtime for the second time this season and he got rebounds that stopped runs by them....he does frustrate Cousins....didn't say he was better than Cousins but I know how you love Meyers so I get the reaction...it's not how many pts he scored...it's the timing of the pts he scored

    Well you're entitled to your opinion but I just don't see it him being able to accept a lesser role other than being the man.
    He was obviously pouting when Gay missed the wide open jumper from the FT line to tie it. He was pouting & standing by the 3 point line when he jacked up a contested three instead of get his big ass inside and work. Not like a turnaround jumper in the lane is how he sent the game to OT.
    He showed being left off the 2012 team he was a baby and didn't want to play in a system. He also has yet to lead a Kings roster with decent NBA players on it to even a .500 record.
    People on this website compare DMC to Sheed all the time.
    I find the comparison to be completely off due to the fact that Sheed was always raved about by his teammates and being a locker room guy.
    DMC is a cancer to the locker room. He's not a good teammate last night showed that, his whole career has shown that. College, NBA, Team USA all recognize his talent, but they also recognize his attitude. Lillard is a good leader but DMC is a giant cancer.
    Anyone else other than DMC.
    Monroe, Okafor, Noel, Orlando's big white guy, etc.

    No DMC please.

    I think it deserves some notice that Meyers was the #1 play of the NBA top ten last night with the monster dunk he had....it was pretty impressive!

    Absolutely. He has struggled and been passive, but hopefully he starts to come around after his good showing this past game.

    Perhaps channeling his inner 'Angry Samurai' with that dunk was the turning point. . .

    Meyers had a nice game - and good to see him more aggressive.
    Turner is still woeful - never seen a guy release the ball on his shot before the wrist flick - here's a tip - it's not working!
    Lillard is much improved with efficiency, the Man has a strong mind!
    We play better without Chiefs poor shooting and transition turnovers,
    Crabbe is still passive/ not assertive and not doing all that he could,
    CJ coming back to form - good news,
    Stotts schemes are overrated,
    WTH happened to Davis? Huge drop-off.
    Matt Barnes' hairdo should be in quarantine.

    IMO any combo of/ all of: Crabbe, Aminu, Leonard, Davis, should all be packed for a single upgrade. (hopefully Okafor)
    Jake Layman should take all of the minutes of Crabbe and Chief at the least. He can do what they bring, just as good or better.

    Like all of them, I watched the entire game. But nice assumption. You're like one of those lawyers that say things without any real knowledge, and then when someone objects you say withdrawn, but everyone already heard it

    Harold Miner was a decent player. He just wasn't Michael Jordan.

    Well, since you watched the game, you know that your statement "Fabio "frustrated" him to 33/9." is complete bullshit. Perhaps it's one of those assumptions you're talking about. No, that can't be it. Anyone who watched the game would have known that Mason Plumlee, not Meyers Leonard was guarding DeMarcus Cousins when Cousins scored all 10 of his 4th quarter and OT points.

    Perhaps, you'd like to withdraw that statement. Nope, too late. Everyone heard it and knows beyond a reasonable doubt that you'll always shit all over Meyers Leonard, even when he plays well and helps the team win a game.

    There's been 2 or 3 people saying "damn, I'm one of meyers biggest haters but I can even say he did well tonight."

    I also was (not so much anymore) one of his biggest detractors, but he played one of his best games last night. It was nice. That shot still makes me cringe though lol.

    I love how they freeze the picture and show the bench reactions. Those two fans behind Damian missed out.
