So we were discussing FVV the other day, who's been pretty good in clutch time. No he hasn't.
Especially this early, clutch time is both small sample and noisy as attested by this fact from ESPN.
The Kings also now have an NBA-best 28.8 net rating in the clutch this season, despite having an NBA-worst -9.9 net rating overall.If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

Looks like Demarre Carrol might be out against the Raps due to a knee injury.

You could guarantee that whoever Carroll was guarding would get at least 2-3 easy cuts on him for dunks/layups per game because he would be completely oblivious off the ball. That's extra frustrating when you're putting the guy on the other team's best player every night. Your "stopper" can't be that awful a team defender, while also being hobbled half the time with injuries that make his man D pathetic as well.
We get better D out of OG and Siakam than we ever did even once from Carroll. The amount of easy backcuts has dropped dramatically since Carroll left.

GLF wrote: View PostThis is very true. I didn't even think about or realize how bad his team defence was since his man to man defence was so bad. He couldn't even fight through screens lol. I feel really bad for him though because the injury was a huge part of his problem but it looks like it may just end up being a chronic thing. It's a lot harder at his age to come back 100% and not reaggravate an injury like he had. Also didn't he injure one knee with Atlanta and then the other knee with us? Or was it the same knee both times?

Its the same old story with Carroll. This is the 4th year in a row he was dealing with knee injury and after a hot start, he is already slowing down and injured again. Its not bad luck anymore, he just can't do it. Good thing we traded him away cause it would have been the same thing here for a third year in a row.
