For the record, I love cuts to the basket.

I get the feeling Fox gets up a little more vs Trae.

His hands are tired from lifting too many bags of money.

We’re up 19, playing exciting, entertaining ball and the only thing some of y’all can focus on is that we might not be able to sign Harry next year. SMH.

Well when it feels like a group of monkeys could stumble their way into better decisions than the Kings it's hard not to vent.

 

[ESP47]

Or he hasn't played in an NBA game in 6 months and they pulled him to give him a breather after a nice showing. KANGZ

I had no problem with Walton pulling him when he pulled him.

Fox >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Trae Young

Numbers I like at the half:
16 assists, 63.4% shooting; 50% from three, holding Atlanta below 50 and being up by 16

Numbers I don't like:
13 posts about Giles and his the kings not picking up his option.

Whooping up on the Hawks which is exactly what I expected before season, didn't think would happen after the first 5 games and now am back to thinking maybe they're good enough to start expecting it again?

I was very happy with what Harry showed so far in his seasons debut.

Hawks have done all they can to switch up the Fox vs Young matchup. Having Young on Hield on defense and one of their wings on Fox, running Young off of two screens at both high posts to try to release Young from Fox. They continue doing that and it’ll be a 30 point blow out. Fox is a physical mismatch for Young and will always be so.

Deandre Hunter is miscast in this Hawks defense. Dude doesn’t have the ball skills to be dribbling more than twice on any offensive set.

Giles with the second unit is the difference between this being an 8 point lead vs its current double digit margin. Being able to move the ball from the middle is invaluable on this second unit. Dedmon has value in the league. Might make sense to start listening to offers.

Didn’t you say on the previous page that all posts regarding Giles would be removed because this is the game thread? Lol

Yeah, I'm just happy he's looking good. Who's to say Vlade hasn't already talked to him about the potential for a new multi-year deal if he can stay healthy.

*shrugs*

I'm gonna enjoy watching him play and not overthink it. The whole Harry thing has been a tenuous gamble from the start anyways with his injury history.

I already have my pet complaint for the season, and I won't bring that up in game threads until we play Dallas!

Dave obviously knows Kings fans all too well.

Hrm. I can fix that. I grant myself immunity.

 

[NewArena]

What a heart Giles has. Love seeing the team rally like this, as he’s likely very likable and they wanna see him get playing time and eventually get paid.

Also, it’s good to see Fox continue the spanking he gave Young the last time they met in Atlanta

 

[VF21]

....I already have my pet complaint for the season, and I won't bring that up in game threads.

Fixed it for you.

 

[NewArena]

I always get a little chill down my spine when you post this. That’s when i know things are going well!!

 

[NewArena]

Alright, Kings. Prove a lot of us wrong and keep ur feet on the gas

Let’s go!!!

 

[VF21]

Fox getting really good with that "hook" pass.

I LOVE THIS TEAM!

The Kings can't offer him anymore than a 1 year $4 million dollar contract for next season and he is an unrestricted free agent. There is no multi year contract offer to make.

 

[VF21]

Nice sequence!

 

[Tetsujin]

Trae is literally giving up a bucket for every single one he scores himself.

 

[dude12]

Keep it up Kings....don’t need Young going nuclear

 

[SLAB]

I like seeing Trae Young get smacked around. Has that Devin Booker immediatly annoying quality about him.

 

[Tetsujin]

Trae's got the hair of a man who is going to go incredibly bald in five years
