I like seeing the Big Al v Boogie match up
Many felt that DMC might be Jeff Jr.

Like I can’t rape people in the shoes I already own.

by betweentheeyes on Feb 8, 2011 12:09 PM CST

Aww, he’s not a narcissistic headcase

AK with the block and the save
That is defensive beauty. And Omri’s second blocked shot by Kirilenko
by betweentheeyes on Feb 8, 2011 12:28 PM CST

Kirilenko is everywhere on the court
by raiderking21 on Feb 8, 2011 12:29 PM CST

AK is a FA do we want him?
by Rambaldi on Feb 8, 2011 12:29 PM CST

I think Yes!
by raiderking21 on Feb 8, 2011 12:30 PM CST

It was commonly agreed upon in Aykis’s asinine trades write up.

[Excerpt from that post:
No I don't really want Kyrylo Fesenko anymore. I do however want his comrade, Andrei Kirilenko. Kirilenko would really shore up our defense, and he could end up being a good mentor for a guy like Omri Casspi. The only problem with him is that he is an expiring contract and the Kings could end up losing him in the offseason. Still, maybe he likes it here and wants to stay. His best years in the league were at the PF position, and he's exactly the type of PF I'd love playing next to DMC; Athletic, long, and can contribute offensively from the mid-range.]

Defending the Utah Jazz
A tad easier than defending the San Antonio Spurs.

Putting AK on Landry is stifling the Kings bench on O
by betweentheeyes on Feb 8, 2011 1:04 PM CST

AK and Bell have been key these last five mintues

Earl Watson kills us. Also, that time out should have been called 3 minutes ago.
by VenomySnicket on Feb 8, 2011 1:11 PM CST

I’ve never seen Earl Watson miss a shot against the Kings before.
by andy sims on Feb 8, 2011 1:14 PM CST

seconded.
Remember that triple double? shudders
by VenomySnicket on Feb 8, 2011 1:15 PM CST

Luke Babbit
Looks like the nerdy English assistant on Bones.
by Exhibit G on Feb 8, 2011 1:13 PM CST

Brandon Hayward ?
by betweentheeyes on Feb 8, 2011 1:14 PM CST

Yeah, him
by Exhibit G on Feb 8, 2011 1:15 PM CST

Gordon not Brandon

That fucking Russian
by 49er16 on Feb 8, 2011 1:32 PM CST

i yelled this outloud
then felt awful afterwards.
by fffindeed on Feb 8, 2011 1:34 PM CST

Over the next minute, AK(‘s hair) is likened to Rod Stewart circa 1977, Roy Munson in “Kingpin,” and Bones.

The bench was the story of the first half with their socring, and the second half the lack of the same. AK was the Jazz player of the game. He caused havoc on Omri and at the end Cousins, but he caused Landry to disappear in the late 3rd and 4th. Poor shooitng under pressure again hurt the Kings. Beno was extremely timid tonight as well.Omri needs a mid range and low post game but he rebounded well. Cousins was clumsly the first half but key the second.
Lots of good and lots of the usual bad.
by betweentheeyes on Feb 8, 2011 2:02 PM CST

Yep.
This is exactly why I want the Kings to sign Kirilenko in the offseason, he’s such a good glue guy and a pest on defense. Carl couldn’t do anything against him, and then he came up with some critical stops late in the game that won the game for Utah. He’s such a good shotblocker too that he alters shots just by being in the vicinity.
