Man, gotta give Detroit props for playing like beasts early on. 

 

With that said.... Kawhi Leonard is quietly taking over. After a close three quarters, Spurs blow it wide open in the 4th to take down the poor Kings.

Uhh, that's 2-time WORLD CHAMPION Mario Chalmers to us plebes.

 

Kings are apparently already unhappy with George Karl and Vivek wants to make a change.  Just in case you were worried that they got their shit together.

Andre Drummond is the first player with 135 points and 135 rebounds through 7 games since Wilt Chamberlain in 1970.

That's very impressive!

When does he hit free agency, so we can steal him from the Pistons? (kidding Brian!)

Widely expected he'll sign an extension this summer. Rumors and accusations abound that he agreed to terms already but it's waiting to sign until after the free agent push next summer, giving Detroit more flexibility.

But, yeah, he's playing at an absurd, legendary clip right now. It's not sustainable, but if he's 80% of this guy for the long haul, then he's a future hall of famer.

They've had a really brutal schedule. Clippers twice, Golden State, Houston and San Antonio already. They also played Memphis and Phoenix without Cousins. Hard to blame Karl for not doing well with that schedule.

 

That said I don't think he's a good fit for the team. If they could talk someone like Thibodeau into talking over it would make sense. Cousins, Koufos and WCS is one hell of a starting point for a defensive minded coach. McLemore is a pretty solid defender too and Karl is turning him into something that needs salvaged before it is too late.

 

I liked the Kings as an 8th seed contender right up to the point I watched them in the preseason and realized they are going to be using Cousins on the perimeter. Negating the potential benefit Rondo could have had on Cousins main flaws.

Random NBA fact that might not interest anyone else: three teams in NBA history have finished with a 64-18 record. They have a three way tie for the 21st best record in NBA history.

They also combined for zero titles. If you hit the end of the season at 63 wins, throw the last game!
