Do the Kings suck because Ben McLemore sucks? Or does Ben McLemore suck because the Kings suck? That is the unanswerable question. It might be somewhat unfair to Ben Mac to accuse him of sucking, but there we have it. I just want to know if he would be a total stud on a team…

Ben McLemore 27 Points Full Highlights (3/11/2015)
Ben “Easy Mac” McLemore is the same player he was his rookie year. Just way better. Well, maybe not “way” better. He’s improved, definitely, though he’s still not as good as he can probably be. It just goes to show, even the biggest bustiest scrubbiest rookie can turn things part-way around just by the natural…

“It’s his dubstep!” Rudy Gay had screamed. “He’s always tricking people into listening to it and it sucks!” Ben McLemore was occupying his usual place in the corner of the dungeon. His captor had relented and allowed the captives to be fed the most meager of rations; however, Ben’s moldy bread remained untouched. He could…

After a poor rookie season, Ben McLemore is finally showing us why he was drafted seventh overall in the 2013 draft. His three-point shot has come along well and, in general, he’s just shooting better from everywhere on the court. I don’t exactly remember, since I’m drunk for most of these descriptions, but I probably…

The Kings being this good disrupts my perception of the world. For the past decade they have sucked relentlessly, and my world became a world where the Kings could never be good. The purple guys from Sacramento could be relied upon to accumulate a collection of disparate talents and try to win, then fail and…

Ben McLemore was taking a pleasant stroll through an especially blighted section of Sacramento. It was late at night, and he knew this particular neighborhood wasn’t exactly safe, but he liked the atmosphere. The golden-yellow street lights, the abandoned buildings, the run-down infrastructure, it was a soothing remembrance of his past. It was also totally…

Wow, another good game for Ben McLemore! That’s three in a row now. His confidence must be sky high, he’s shooting well and scoring decently despite a low volume of shots. There’s no reason I can think of that his self-esteem would not be at its apex. He pretty much did everything right this game….

Two good games in a row for Ben McLemore? Has that ever happened before? I looked at basketball-reference and it turns out that he has. A bunch of times. Maybe this dude isn’t as bad as I thought? On the other hand, the Kings are, as they say, “Who we thought they were”. They just…

It might be time for Ben McLemore to start showing a little bit more than what he’s shown so far in his career, or people are gonna start calling him the B-word. DownToBuck is loath to call anyone that hurtful and callous word, but nothing stands in his way when it comes to truthfulness. And…

Ben McLemore walked into the community center with trepidation. He had never really been to a support group before, but his coach had convinced him it was a good idea. And the more Ben had pondered it, the more he agreed with his coach; the events of last season still bothered him more than one…
