[Game] Kings v. 76ers - Saturday, Feb. 2 - 10PM ET/7PM PT

[BigVirg]

76ers are riding high from beating the Warriors and have the Raptors next. This is a trap game on their end. Let's punch them in the mouth early! GO KINGS!

as I said, we lack data to have these arguments, but that is all. Shamet is so far shooting the same percentage Klay shot his rookie year on same number of attempts. 10 years from now the data will probably confirm what you are sure of right now (that Klay is a superior 3PT shooter) but that is just the odds, not a surefire logical conclusion from the known facts.

I won't pretend to know since I don't even know who this Shamet chap is, but have you considered the kinds of 3s he's taking? It's one thing to hit wide open 3s in the corner etc, another to be coming hard off screens, catching and shooting, or pulling up in transition and so on.

Going to this game and can't wait!

Me tooooo

 

[gunks]

76ers are beastly!

Not worth getting upset if we lose, definitely getting psyched if we win!

Good low pressure viewing experience tonight!

Go Kings!

 

[NewArena]

I really want Fox to be aggressive tonight, missed shots be damned. Get to the foul line and get Embiid and the gang in trouble! We can do this, but a slow start is something we can’t afford. Excited to see Giles and Bagley pick up where they left off, and just praying WCS shows up

 

[SLAB]

Hopefully Embiid slips on a banana peel early on and has to rest up the rest of the night.

 

[SLAB]

Fox has the ninja headband tonight.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

So I guess Philly is going to let us shoot threes, huh?

 

[dude12]

Kings with the very fast pace right now. Going to wear these guys down

 

[Tetsujin]

Philly may want to defend Buddy beyond the 3P line

 

[Suicide King]

Fox has the ninja headband tonight.

I love those and Fox wears it well with his Dragonball Z hairstyle.

lol right?? Theoretically having Embiid means your perimeter defenders can play more aggressively but it seems like they got the wrong scouting report.

Not liking Bjelica allowing these dunks

 

[SLAB]

Willie jumper, “Yech,,,, okay!”

 

[SomebodyDoSomethin]

Kings playing tough and that's all I want.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Hate those ISO Shump shots sooo much

 

[NewArena]

Now this lineup i can get jiggy with

 

[SomebodyDoSomethin]

Shump is hard to justify being out there.

 

[Suicide King]

Shump is hard to justify being out there.

He keeps Butler in check pretty well tho

 

[NewArena]

I pray an all bench lineup doesn’t see the light of day tonight

This lineup is the PERFECT combo of defense and offense omg

 

[Tetsujin]

Buddy would be the perfect player for the Sixers. Too bad for them he's ours.

 

[SLAB]

I like this lineup.

Scratch that. I LOVE this lineup!!!

 

[Tetsujin]

Holy crap.

 

[gunks]

I am having a good time

 

[Kingsfan23]

Good stuff. Fox aggressive. Buddy can evolve into superstar stuff as I said

 

[dude12]

Bagley playing some good D on Simmons.....not able to bully him down low

 

[The Hammer]

Absolutely gorgeous basketball!!!

 

[KingKong]

This looks like early season Kings. A welcome sight.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

So I'm guessing Philly is going to be mixing up their lineup a bit after this timeout.

Giles on Embiid
