Sac is shooting 50% and 60% from 3. That is why they are still in this game.

How we doing boys? Lets get this 3rd!

Amazing shot selection there.

I think that's the first time all year I've seen Tyreke setup on a fast break.

Normally he just forces it. Smart play.

Two horrible shot attempts .. get the ball to ad

Casspi, 11% from 3 eh?

Terrible shot selection man

Does it make you feel better he is still below 20%? I would love to see how this board would react to him shooting 11% as a pel.

Give ad the ball please

Why we keep letting the biggest player on the Kings bring the ball up unimpeded is beyond me.

The problem is, that for people won't don't watch the smaller market teams play. All we see is guys like Casspi going off vs us. So, whether it's a stasticial blip or not people will react to what we see here and now.

It's all a matter of perception.

Can we pass the ball more than twice a possession?

You do realize that you're using a nine shot sample within a singular statistical category to make the argument that Casspi is a below average basketball player, right?

Is that your comeback? Someone who is playing 7 mins with the smallest sample size compared to 16 mins? Miller shot a higher 3pt % in his rookie year than Casspi has his entire career. Miller also has a better career 3pt%. Casspi can have 30 points and go 5-5 still does not make him our missing piece and the 3 haha.

Miller is 0% from 3pt this year and he's our starter. He's 25% in overall fg%. I don't see any argument where Casspi isn't blowing him away.

Asik is clearly hurting

So wait I'm not allowed to do that but you can call Miller terrible after a couple of shots and basically no sample size in minutes on the season? Ok I see how it is.

Why is it that all you care about is 3pt shooting? I like my players to hit shots and do other things as well. But even using your asinine argument of "11% 3pt this year" he's STILL blowing Miller out of the water.

For the third time, I was alluding to his play over the past three freaking years. Why can't you comprehend that?

Ok I'll use his pas 4 seasons including this one 31% 32% 34% and 11%. Is that a big enough sample size for you? While steadily staying in the 60% on FTs? With 40% avg from the field and no D? How much more sample size do you need?

Why are you so obsessed with three point shooting?

Also its cute that you leave out the fact that Casspi shot 37% and 38% from 3 his first two seasons in the league while using Miller's three point shooting during his rookie season as an argumentative point.

Austin Rivers is terrible

Damn Rivers you have to move the ball.

That's the reason Rivers will never be more than an 8th or 9th man, at best.

Rivers aka "glue fingers" is just plain awful. Good god.

Why are you so obsessed with Casspi? Talking how the guy is our missing 3 when everyone says they want a 3 and D guy which he is neither yea that means something.

Rivers must be blind

Yeah I mean Rivers has handles. He can shoot and has a good first step but if he can't see the progress of plays when there happening and or be aware of his teammates are. He isn't going to help. It's all about River he has to eat now.

3 and D is what we need in a Starting SF. Not trash is what we need in a backup.

Because he was actually ON our team and we passed him up to keep Miller?

Lmao I never said that once. I've never seen somebody utilize the straw man fallacy so many times. And please count the amount of posts you've made about him in this thread. If anybody is "obsessed," it's you.

Babbitt and Anderson on defense is just as bad as the saints D

Why are we doing this? Where is Withey?

Bit on a pump fake that wasn't even there.

What did we pass up!? We want a 3 and D SF right? What does he provide in either of those categories?

Is Holiday hurt or something? Why so many bums on the floor at once? Is it 2013 again?

You are confusing starter with backup.

Our starting SF should be 3 and D to fit best. Our backup should be not trash. Casspi fits that better than anyone on our team.

This guy may be the worst debater I've ever seen. Literally all he does is repeat one stat that has no sample size basis, puts words in other people's mouths to make his counterarguments easier, avoids addressing issues posed by counterarguments, and resorts to name calling.

Haha you never said backup. Considering Darius is our starting SF and you are saying Casspi is our missing piece that does not mean bench player it means starter.

I give up! Dells worst move ever is letting Casspi go! I'm gonna go post that in the thread on Dells worst moves. 2 people crying over a guy who didn't even want to be here and fits nothing anybody wants in our SF.
