    This team makes the Pistons look like an NBA Finals outfit.

    Who coaches this team? An empty chair? Out of control with no defensive intensity whatsoever. They've given up 31 points in the second quarter and there's still three minutes left until halftime.

        Their team is a joke. Young team with no real cornerstone players. Cousins is talented, but he isn't winning anything. Only way he has a productive NBA career is with a veteran hard nosed coach like a Thibs or Doc.

        I'm iffy on McLemore. Have a feeling his NBA career will disappear like he did in so many big college games last year. Could be wrong. Kid is definitely talented, I just think his lack of motivation to be great plus Sacramento will kill his future.

        At some point you have to bring some vets in. You can't just keep drafting players. I thought when the Wiz aquired Nene it was huge for them. Kings need to do the same. They got Vasquez, but I just don't think he is that good to begin with.

        Of all the young teams, I'd rank them close to last when it comes to brightest future a couple years down the road.

          They can't do anything, really.

              Vazquez will be OK but he's still coming back from the injury.

              With that being said, this team = fail. Weird what Pinny was doing with this game line. I don't get it.

                Did you see the 1H line at Pinny?

                And I'm not that high on Vasquez. Personally, I think Isaiah Thomas is a better fit for the team. Maybe I'm just a homer though.

                  Yeah. Coincidence I'm sure.

                  Isaiah's good, but he needs to be coached and mentored. He's not getting either right now.

                      Pretty much, just not quite as athletic. But yes, very similar. Both from Seattle. Both went to UW. They're good friends in real life too. I've always said that if either one of them had normal NBA height, they would be a serious threat for the NBA scoring title. Once again, I may be a homer here.

                        Does Thomas have Robinson's fire though?

                              I think so. Very similar attitudes too. But his career will drown in Sactown. Could you imagine if he were on a team people actually pay attention to like the Lakers. A 5"6 guy named Isaiah Thomas who can score 18 points off the bench. Media would have a frenzy with him.

                              Gus Johnson at his best.....

                                It's not a well put-together team. Cousins would be a good centerpiece if he wasn't immature.

                                  Speedy I remember watching this. It was right around St. Patty's day weekend I was out at the bar. I got really excited when he made it then I realized I lost on the hook. Washington -2.5

                                      Solid start to the second half.

                                      Did they all smoke weed together during the break? That's the big question.

                                      Why in god's name did the books make the Kings -3.5 favorites here?

                                        The original line was set at 1.5, most likely in anticipation that Eric Bledsoe wouldn't be playing. The rest is just late steam.

                                            Why would they even be favored in the first place?

                                            Have you watched these two teams play so far this year?

                                              This team is so bad. No wonder I can't even win a game with them in NBA 2k14.

                                                Only the lines makers now why, and yes, I watch every NBA team play. I personally don't bet games where a starter that averages 15 or more ppg is not playing. IE. MIA/ATL and SAC/PHO

                                                      Simply because the Kings are at home and a lot of people think the Suns are a lot worse of a team than they really are.

                                                        Kings have so many chance to cut the lead, turnover, turnover and turnover again.
