yeah, he's shooting a lot of 12ft floaters. His fg% is down quite a bit, but it is still very good.

Len has just had three bad possessions in a row.

Soft shot to miss what should have been a dunk from right under the basket.
Soft Defense to let Koufus take him one on one in the post.
Offensive foul killing a good Booker shot.

He just goes through stretches where he's not into it at all. Like, go eat a steak or something, Alex. You're better than this.

My question is why skal couldn't show this last year at Kentucky. He was awful

Skal made some boneheaded plays early in this game. The Kings are bad enough to leave him in when he does something stupid, and it has paid off tonight.

And, you know, everybody has their career breakout game against the Suns.

Bleds didn't play. Booker had a terrible game with 6-24 shooting, including 3-16 on two-pointers. That's what it takes to lose to Sacto.

I think we just might pull off this loss in the tank war

Most of the team shot bad. We started the game sharing the ball well, but then started playing a lot of one on one.

Gambo said Bledsoe is done for the year. Best. News. Ever.

Booker was the Tank Commander tonight.

For as much as Watson clearly prefers Williams to Len, if he wanted to win this game, he should have given Len the crunch time minutes. Some length inside would have helped. Oh well. No complaints.

The Bledsoe shut-down seems premature. Kills my fantasy team, too. Per Gambo, Knight was asked to play but said no because of the spasms.
