[Game] Kings at Atlanta, Friday November 8th, 4:30 PT/7:30 ET

[SCKingsfan]

nearly all our trades are looking good tonight

I remember before the season started they talked about how the 2nd team was really pushing the 1st team in practice.

There's way more scrap on the 2nd team. And dare I say, smarts? It kinda depends on which Bogi shows up.

Props to Luke on the coaching tonight.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Wow. Why must this team do this to me? I am emotionally exhausted watching this team play.

 

[Tetsujin]

Vince takes one more hit like that and he's just gonna explode in a cloud of dust

 

[dude12]

Vince Carter is still amazing. First Ballot

Isn't that why we're Kings fans?

 

[VF21]

Dang. That's some incredibly good defense out there.

 

[dude12]

Bogiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii and 1

 

[VF21]

This is a great way to start the weekend. BOGS is the man!!!

 

[Tetsujin]

BOGI IS JUST UNCONSCIOUS RIGHT NOW

 

[gunks]

Can we give Buddy's contract to Bogi?

Like, literally. I'm not talking about signing him to a similar deal.

 

[VF21]

It's a good night to be a Kings fan.

Winning > Losing

2-1 on the road

As I mentioned before, Buddy had a great shooting night over 50% for 22 points. Only 2 TOs. He played well I'm not sure why everyone is complaining. he had that one turnover that was bad

 

[Tetsujin]

Team USA could have had Fox, Young, and Bagley but had White, Marcus Smart, and Plumlee instead.

I'm just messing around. Buckets is my guy.

He makes some real head scratchin plays every game though. But as somebody mentioned earlier (was that you?) I think the problem is less Buddy and more how he's used. I'd love to see him do nothing but drain 3s. No more dribbling and decision making with the ball. Just get into position and shoot. Dude can average 25 ppg just by being in the right place at the right time.

Maybe this Walton guy is ok....................grudgingly

That was totally a coaching win and teachable moment for him. Especially for De’aaron. He was losing his poise out there.

 

[Kingz19]

3 of 4 with a solid showing in Toronto. They are clicking on offense now. I think no matter where the Kings stack up in the grand scheme of things. That s***show from the first 5 games is done with. So atleast they’re back to being fun to watch and we’ll see after these next 10 games where they are. 2 of 4 here and a 3 of 4 there, this season can be nursed back to health.

 

[ESP47]

What a weird game.

Fox, Buddy and Beli benched despite all 3 having good offensive games.

CoJo and Ariza with the perimeter defense and Bogie with the deadly shooting. Exactly what I was hoping for in the offseason.

Now Bogie, all we ask for in the future is for you to settle in somewhere between missing and making all your shots. Tonight was a huge night for him. Played some defense out there at times too.

Yeah but it was a bad decision. Fox was getting into a mano versus mano battle with Young and loosing. It was a good move by Walton to go with Joseph and Bogi.

 

[Heuge]

Coach did well in this one.

CoJo played excellent defense.

Ariza and Barnes brought veteran IQ.

Great win.

 

[kingsboi]

Kings three point shooting the last two games have been scorching

 

[Cojc]

Defense keeps you in games!

Not so much hero ball in the 4th quarter this time. Its games like this at the end where the the coach played smart and keep the defensive players in and did not interrupt the chemistry they had on the floor.

 

[Agent23]

Another thing, anyone love how Holmes ices the picks on pick and rolls? He’s an awesome pick and roll defender.

 

[Bfreeman]

I like how Walton manages rotations seems to be well thought out, they are gelling nicely (finally) lookout Portland we coming for you.

Portland looking a little rough as they realize that Hassan is currently a leaky bag of empty stats

They still have the best backcourt in the league, that happens to kill us every time. Hopefully the bench comes up big again.

 

[NewArena]

Coach Walton earned my respect the second he benched Dedmon in favor of Holmes. playing Giles the second he became available tonight, made it go up even more so

Proud of everyone
