Bjelica and Holmes with the best +- on the team.

Largely because Bjeli's been on the floor when Holmes has been on the floor.

Bjeli has been getting absolutely cooked by Lauri all night.

Tale of two quarters. Lauri was atrocious in the first.

This is yet another game where a team is locking down the Kings from simply doubling off the pick and roll. That just can't happen. As time goes on and especially when Fox is back they need to be able to find shooters spotting up and not always on the move. The simple answer besides moving the ball after the double to the corners is to just run that play with Bjelica. They did it a couple of times but a few times he rolled instead of popping. Have Buddy run that pick and roll with Bjelica and swing it right back over to him. Bjelica has to dig in on that screen because rolling isn't the goal. Dig in, give Buddy some daylight then swing it back to Bjelica. Force the Bulls to open up spot shooters at the corners.

Let him prove it in the second half, one good quarter, one bad.

Our offense has really anaemic for most of the season. Struggling to get to 50 at the half.

The Kings need to find their way in the open court. The half court offense has been solid but they are near the bottom in pace this year because they are running way too many half court sets. I'm starting to miss those transition 3's.

That halftime score ... we’re lucky. We can win this

Go Kings!!!

Hope all of the Kings players get this much leeway.

 

[NewArena]

We need to run waaaay more screens for our shooters. Continue to get to the basket, but we need to speed this game up and let it fly, in spots

 

[Iced Espresso]

Hope all of the Kings players get this much leeway.

Did you see him miss like 3 layups and shoot an airball in the first?

While Bjelica was bullying him around?

Hope all of the Kings players get this much leeway.

Bjelica has the same amount of points on same amount of shots as Markanen. Has the same amount of assists. Has 3 more rebounds.

As good as Lauri was in the 2nd, he's at -9 so far this game, cause he was that bad in the first.

 

[Tetsujin]

Refs suddenly getting Carter foul calls like he's Doncic or Harden

 

[Iced Espresso]

If you want to keep praising Lauri, Barnes blew right by him baseline.

 

[Tetsujin]

How the hell did Bjeli wind up guarding Lavine there?

 

[Tetsujin]

If you want to keep praising Lauri, Barnes blew right by him baseline.

And then he took the ball full court and scored on our entire D

 

[Iced Espresso]

Freaking layup drills I'm starting to get mad.

 

[dude12]

Down 17 as Lavine getting hot......this is not looking good

 

[Iced Espresso]

And then he took the ball full court and scored on our entire D

I'm officially now need to take a break, our effort tonight is terrible!

 

[Livinthedream]

Who is praising Lauri? Sensitive bunch.

 

[KingKong]

There you go Buddy.

 

[kingdivac]

Best play of the game so far with Bjelica and Hield

 

[jcwkings]

Bulls are a bad team, desperate for a win and they can smell one.

 

[SacTownKid]

There you go. An inside pick and roll with Buddy and Bjelica. It forces the defense to open a gap. Bjelica drives in, dishes back out to an open Buddy.

The dish out was what set it apart - shades of Vlade.

 

[kingdivac]

gawd awful rebounding on defense....

 

[gunks]

Thats worse with the Seahawks running away with it. NFC North are fodder.

... I'm a Seahawks fan

 

[SacTownKid]

I think Walton finally saw it. Pick and roll, swing back, and right to Bogdan in the corner. He didn't hit it but that shot is there.

[kingdivac]

Pretty good rebound by Hield there....
