[Game] Kings @ Nets 1-21 12:30pt/3:30et

[SLAB]

It’s to the point where I’m disappointed Buddy doesn’t shoot every time the ball touches his hand at the three point line.

 

[gunks]

What I find most frustrating about Shumpert is that he seems like such a good guy, I feel bad bashing him when he plays like poop.

 

[Ozymandias]

Hahah Fox didn't get the block but thats an effective chasedown in transition.

 

[LPKingsFan]

I love his intangibles, and the team (as currently constructed) needs his defense, but I cannot remember the last Shumpert offensive possession with a good outcome.

Edit: he has made some nice passes. His shooting though...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I feel like every single time we make a great defensive play, our opponents still get the ball and then hit a three to cost us a net point.

 

[KingKong]

Zero resistance at the rim for the Nets.

Wouldn’t that be three Net points?

 

[Ozymandias]

We better be careful... D'Angelo Russell is capable of going off for huge scoring #'s... he's got 18 already (most which has come vs defenders not named Fox)

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Russell likes those high 3s. Feels like it’s going to be a perfect swish every time he shoots it

He plays well defensively and he seems like a great guy in the locker room, but his offensive game is so bad that he constantly kills any momentum we have by taking really bad shots. How many times this year have we seen the Kings get a great stop on defense and Shumpert immediately takes a pull up 3 in transition and it completely bricks?

 

[Kingster]

The Kings have got to speed up the tempo.

 

[LPKingsFan]

It’s to the point where I’m disappointed Buddy doesn’t shoot every time the ball touches his hand at the three point line.

He’s at Peja/K-Mart status where every shot seems like a good shot. Fun having a player like that again.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

So, I'm looking away, when I hear Brookyln's PA announcer mention Ashley Graham. I turn back to the screen and... that was not the Ashley Graham I was hoping to see.

 

[Sluggah]

Little kids flossing or doing some orange justice is my second favorite thing about basketball now.

 

[gunks]

He's due for a random 25pt night any game now. But until then we just gotta accept the 2-9 nights and move on.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Shump’s confidence is his midrange does not match the result

A lot of them aren't bad shots, just a bad shooter.

 

[SLAB]

Uh oh...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Well, this has gone poorly.

 

[SacTownKid]

See, I know for some reason Joerger doesn't want to play Buddy and Bogdan together but it's come to the point that teams are forcing him to. They keep the defense honest.

 

[kingsboi]

Russell destroying the Kings, doing whatever he pleases

 

[Ozymandias]

"Wear" Brooklyn at?

Bad pun is bad.

It's from a famous biggie smalls freestyle.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

this Is quickly getting out of hand. Willie and Shump should not be shooting anything outside of a dunk or layup

 

[Hansel]

This is gone...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Little kids flossing or doing some orange justice is my second favorite thing about basketball now.

Either autocorrect mangled this beyond recognition or I am officially no longer "with it" because I have literally no idea what you just said.

 

[White_Chocolate]

Why not play Bagley and take out Shump?

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Russell destroying the Kings, doing whatever he pleases

he has been destroying a lot of good teams lately.

 

[White_Chocolate]

Shump gives you no distinct advantage

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

It's from a song.

I am familiar with "Where Brooklyn At?" I was speaking specifically about their "Wear Brooklyn At" segment, where they show people wearing Nets gear. I happen to think that the pun is ****ty.
