Tyreke Evans almost goes left MORE then he goes right. I don’t know where these so called “Scouters” get the idea he can’t go left. Try watching a whole game instead of a ESPN highlight. And ya, Tyreke has flaws.. he needs to work on his mid-range long-range game. Some may be decieved by his looks and demeanor but he is only TWENTY. The guys not even old enough to buy Beer. In 2-3 years he will be unstoppable. And for all those ppl out there that says “well he is only putting up 20-5-5 a night because he’s on a horrible team” (I recall Brandon Jennings saying that)… he would be averaging 10 assists a game if his teammates actually made some open shots.. Oh and by the way he still manages to put up 20+ a night WITH the teams best defender on him. Opposing teams defense is focused on stopping him , clogging the paint, waiting for him to make his drive and 9 times out of 10 they STILL cant stop this youngster.

I agree with Ben! People seriously need to stop taking jabs at SacTown. Tyreke is the franchise player and is there to stay. In addition, almost every player has regretted leaving the King’s organization due to its awesome fan base and community support.

Kings fans are lovin the Tyreke Evans! We don’t have a lot going for the Kings but Evans is a bright spot on an otherwise dim team. Hopefully, the Kings can build around this kid and make a competitive team that can win some playoff games. Evans is the real deal. Sure, his jumper isn’t quite there yet, but he has hired all the right people for this offseason and he will be doing nothing but shooting those jumpers and getting comfortable finishing with either hand. He’s thick like a fullback and very nimble on his feet. You would think someone as solid as he is would be less nifty driving the lane, but somehow he is lightening quick for as big as he is. His arms are freakishly long ! He has a 7′+ wingspan that makes him even harder to guard or play against. And the one thing that no one seems to mention that is incredible is the way this kid plays defense! He is just as dedicated to his defense as he is to his offense. Kings finally caught a break and have a player they can build around. Kings are not letting this kid go nowheres! Now they just need to build a team around this kid. When his jumper starts going down on a regular basis, he will be completely unguardable. Think Wade but smaller and quicker. He has an incredible attitude and work ethic. He will be an allstar in a year, two at the most! He is carrying the Kings on his back at TWENTY YEARS OF AGE! How good will he be in 2 years? OMG the sky is the limit for this kid. Once he gets that jumper going, and they have to play him straight up, he will be totally unstoppable. He already knows how to pass out of the double and runs the break to perfection. Anyone who says this kid isn’t a Pointguard has never seen him play. He runs the team just fine. If they dont give this kid ROY, then the ROY vote is rigged. I mean, how much better does he have to play at 20.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game?? I think if the draft were done over again, he would be picked #1 even over Blake Griffin. I can’t see Griffin coming in and even coming close to what Tyreke has done his first year. Tyreke will be an Allstar in a very short amount of time. He just has all the tools and the desire for greatness. Just watch this KID DOMINATE! The Basketball GODS have finally paid the Kings back for 2002.

Everyone always want to take a shot at Sactown. Tyreke isn’t goin anywhere. Players who have actually played for the Kings for a significant amount of time are heartbroke when they are traded minus the last few years when the team was bad. A lot of them either kept their houses here or came back & retired here. Ron Artest a NY kid desperately wanted an extension from the Kings & was mad when he didn’t get one. We have one of the best GM’s & owners in the league. They will build a great team around this kid. Mark my words.

Reke is a monster. He can go right or left and will dunk on u if aggitated. He has no flaws, only needs league experience to take over top 5 player in 4yrs… O YEAH HE FROM CHESTER PA…. WE DO THIS DOWN HERE…

I’m from Sac and get to watch this Phenom play nightly. He goes left every game. And he plays great D. Nobody watches Sac games so they have no clue. But don’t worry, people will be watching the Kings again. And last year, the Kings only won 17 games. With Tyreke leading the way as a Rookie, they’ve already surpassed that number, and will still win more as the season goes on. And Reke’s last 4 games, he’s averaging 20ppg, 10rebs & 8.5 assists. If his low post, lay-up game were so weak cause he can’t go left, and he plays in arguably the toughest conference in the League, then how come NOBODY can stop him. Everybody knows he’s going to the rim, but they can’t do anything about it. He’s the man that will make the “lay-up” cool again. He’s only 20 years old too. That means he’s only going to get bigger, stronger & faster. And he’s already been working on his outside shot, and has said publicly that in the offseason, that’s his main focus, so guarantee next year, he will literally be unstoppable. This kid was born to play basketball.

ya man…we rockin w/ the best rook this year. i’ve liked his game for a minute and when we got him, we finally made a pick that was an impact pick. he KINDA reminds of dwade in some ways. someone said bron earlier, but i’m not sure if i’m sold on that one just yet. even tho reke is always a few boards/assists shy of triple doubles. i knew they’d grab him at 4 just based on the needs of other teams in front of us on the board and based on what we needed. after watchin beno’s ass fail at the one last year and no real big man, we needed either a 1 or a 4. so i’m glad we’re rockin w/ the ROY and he’s doin as well as he has been. ppl here in sac have always said if we’re at LEAST competitive an try, then we’ll come out. an seein kevin’s attitude on the court so many times the last couple yrs, who’d wanna be there if he didnt wanna be?? lol so yeah, we’re at least headed in the right direction.
