Jimmer was the only Kings player in the + category of the +/-, so when he was on the court the team was better. But yeah, his stats were not good.

I also noticed that. Interesting that the teams was + when he was on the court and he went 0-fer.

Any idea why he was a DNP coaches decision for the last 2 games?

I'll chalk it up to a mix of racism and stupidity.

Smart was interviewed and said that it would be disrespectful to play white guys on or around MLK day.

Is that our sitting President, pre-Punahou days? Funny stuff.



Here's hoping the new ownership in Seattle blows up the front office, Coach dumba$$, and the entire roster...or just trade JF to OKC. Heck, I'd even settle for the Lakers. Any team but the Queens...

Jimmer has the 4th best player efficiency rating on the team. Unfortunately 2 of the guys ahead of him are also point guards. Hope he gets traded.

For the first quarter of the season Jimmer was leading the league and the team by a wide margin, but Smart refused to reward him with minutes. In January was when the biggest shift came about. No matter how he played Jimmer only got bench minutes and I think it killed his confidence. How many times do you have to maximize your time on the floor before you realize the coach doesn't really care and is playing favorites?



Now IT is playing with confidence because he's gotten minutes, free of any adverse consequences, and has played out the kinks. Jimmer goes in there and knows that if he misses his first couple shots or has a turnover that he's done.

Mizzou I agree with everything you said 100%. Still hoping that either he gets traded, or Smart (misnomer) gets canned.

Jimmer has also stopped drawing contact and getting to the FT line. He was shoot FTs quite regularly at the beginning of the season, but now rarely gets there.



He seems to basically now just hang out behind the 3pt line and hope for a pass.

Yeah, that is a bad plan...



The kings average like 15 assists per game, or something low like that. Compare that with a team like the Spurs (the epitome of ball movement) that gets like 25 assists on 29 baskets just in the first half alone...

Yeah, camping out waiting for a pass on a team that doesn't pass isn't a good idea.
