[Game] Kings v. Blazers 10/25/19 7PM PT/10PM ET

[jcwkings]

Didn't we sign Dedmond to shoot threes? He isn't even looking to shoot on the dribble hand offs and they are playing way off him.

 

[TaxMan]

Can I get WCS back? God I never thought I would say that.

 

[VF21]

Has anyone started the Fire Walton thread yet? Having a great time but the retired players in attendance in their prime could sure have kicked the crap out of our current crew. Speaking of cre I am not impressed with the 916 Crew. Bring back the,dancers.

 

[SacTownKid]

I remember suggesting trading for Whiteside over the summer. Wish we would have gone with that.

I don't know. He gets exploited heavily in pick and roll. Still, that was a steal by the Blazers.

Not yet. Can't imagine it will take long.

He's been missing.

 

[joemama]

Ariza stepped out on lillard like he can play defense. Pssh

Once they get Nurk healthy, it's going to be a hell of a big man rotation with him Collins/Whiteside. Can really exploit any sort of match-up

 

[Tetsujin]

Our big man play has been downright awful. Willie was never this bad.

Recency bias at its finest

 

[SLAB]

Jesus Christ, Ariza. Lmao

 

[Tetsujin]

Hard to play WORSE than Ariza has been playing so that's good I guess

Come on Slab dude hasnt blinked once the entire game. We dont need an Ayton-type suspension

 

[jcwkings]

yeah the quality of big men the Kings have right now is putrid....Willie wouldn't fix this issue however.

At least he was a big lob threat that drew gravity on his rolls. Teams aren't afraid of Dedmond rolling at all and he doesn't even look to shoot, which is why he was signed.

 

[Kingz19]

Ariza is attempting more off the dribble than I expected him to have permit to

 

[TaxMan]

Holy hell. Has Ariza had a positive play this year?

 

[The_Jamal]

Great pass Bogi.

Been a real bright-spot this game.

 

[Kingz19]

That was the epitome of matador defense on the Hezonja drive

 

[TaxMan]

Unbelievable

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Why in the world are we leaving Ariza in the game and taking Barnes out????

 

[Tetsujin]

Fox comes in. Kings immediately play better defense and move the ball on offense.

 

[SacTownKid]

Bjelica at center is actually the best look for Walton if he's looking for skill out of that position.

 

[The_Jamal]

GREAT extra pass Bogi.

 

[Tetsujin]

Great pass Bogi.

Been a real bright-spot this game.

This is the good Bogi that makes all the bad Bogi stretches so damn frustrating

 

[Kingz19]

Must’ve been bunk mates with Luke when they were on the Lakers together

 

[Tetsujin]

Bjelica at center is actually the best look for Walton if he's looking for skill out of that position.

At least until Harry comes back

 

[Tetsujin]

Kayte's mic is working and picking up the arena audio but the commentary audio has sounded like Grant and Doug are at the bottom of a well

 

[The_Jamal]

Yep, this is the guy you pay 18mil+ for. Moving the ball well, taking good shots, getting teammates involved. Just been lacking consistency.

 

[Tetsujin]

Mario tried to D Fox up like he's Kawhi

 

[Kingz19]

Where’s Buddy?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Where’s Buddy?

Keeping Ariza's seat warm for him.
