Terrible foul by Garcia. The Kings cut it to 12 after being down 30. That should just about kill any chances of an amazing comeback.
Dorsey's made a good case for getting more minutes in the future. Great energy and defense. His FT form is truly horrible, however.
Damn didn't see the whole game. Now Tyreke has 12 assists? Something tells me that he passed the rock after he danced around the perimeter and found that he had no opportunity to score. Does Westphal want him to do this? He's going to get his stats but at what cost?
I didn't watch the first half and haven't seen much of Evans, in general, but he made a lot of really nice and creative passes in the second both in the half court and after pushing the ball off missed Detroit shots. I hear a lot about him being a ballhog and not a PG though from people who watch him more regularly.
Evans is a transroled person he even says growing he felt like a sg in pg's body. He was on oprah bout it, when he came out to his high school coach he flipped ****.
Landry 8-8 from the line but only 3 boards. Then again, the Pistons shot nearly 60% from the field so there weren't many opportunities for defensive rebounds.
He really is undersized in terms of length (please, no, Carl Herrera). He makes up for a lot of his short arms though with his strength and explosiveness. Believe it or not, according to DraftExpress' sample sizes, little Aaron Brooks is closer to the average PG in terms of standing reach and wingspan than Landry is to the average PF. Brooks does have long arms and big hands for his height but Landry also has very short arms and, apparently, small hands for his height.
Yeah most of his assists came in the second half when they were down 20+ points, I believe. The entire team played with more energy and focus, but of course it was too late. Still, I shows what this team can potentially do if and when they gel. Also, it would be great to see Dorsey finally get a real opportunity to prove his worth on the court.
Thanks. I wish he would pass the rock earlier in the possession. Several times his teammates would get open off down screens and he would just watch them till they get covered again. Then, he calls for a pick, comes off it and tries to get to the hoop. Rinse and repeat. Hope that the 2nd half passing becomes a trend because Evans and the Kings could really work if he stopped all his ball-hogging nonsense.
I havent seen Evans play very much but from what I have seen and researched about him is he is like a Francis or Iverson player. A combo gaurd who dominates the ball and has a scorers mentality but can get you double figure assist on any given night. Landry needs a set up man like a Jason Kidd type point gaurd to be effective. Thats why Landry played off the bench with Lowry.
