[Game] Kings v. Lakers - Saturday, Feb. 1 - 7PT/10ET

[Tetsujin]

Didn't he make one even farther away at the beginning of the game than the one he missed now?

So my Bjelica is shooting it from 30 feet away to beat Dame argument doesn't hold any water....

 

[Joshoua]

Fox turning the ball over every other play he has it

 

[SLAB]

Giles should be pretty rested after a sweet sweet 15 minute break. Lol

 

[chief bromden]

I wish Walton would play Giles over Barnes

 

[Tetsujin]

Fox turning the ball over every other play he has it

It feels like this is his first legitimately bad game of 2020

 

[chief bromden]

I wish Walton would play Giles over Barnes

Oh sweet, thanks Luke!

 

[Tetsujin]

OK Bjeli you can shoot it closer to the hoop now, you have my permission

isn't he always shooting it from 30 feet?

 

[jcwkings]

Lakers might score 80 in the half.

 

[Tetsujin]

Inexplicably it feels like the Kings still have a good chance of making this a game

 

[SLAB]

Giles comes in and the gap begins closing. Coincidence? Most definitely. But that three minute hook earlier was still ridiculous. Lol

 

[jcwkings]

Lakers length inside is really messing with Fox.

 

[SLAB]

12 and 5 in 8 minutes isn’t too shabby.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

We’re getting beat buy Ernie Johnson, KCP, and Bradley how embarrassing.

 

[Tetsujin]

We've been daring the Lakers scrubs to beat us and tonight they are.

 

[chief bromden]

Kings being down only 17 feels like a miracle

 

[steelevt]

Are the kings trying to get 24 turnovers in memory of Kobe?

 

[Tetsujin]

Lakers bigs can't guard a guy in the doghouse and a random dude from our G-League team

 

[chief bromden]

I was guessing giving up 24 threes.... maybe both!

 

[gunks]

Well... they had a good first half, but I'd be shocked, SHOCKED I tells yah, if the Lakers go for 162 points tonight.

I reckon we'll have some pride and hold the dastards to a mere 155ish.

I can't be the only one not at all surprised about this, can I? I'm not even perturbed. In fact, truth be told, it's almost like there's not even a Kings game tonight. Look at the jerseys in G1C right now...

 

[LPKingsFan]

Kings gave up 81 points in the first half as a tribute to Kobe. How about 8 and 24 for the next two quarters?

 

[Kingster]

Giles is really screwing things up. He's doing the exact opposite of spacing the floor. He's crowding the floor so that Fox and Hield and whomever have no space to operate. This is what happens with your 4th string center starting a game like this.

The Lakers obviously can't miss. I'm not giving up though. If the Kings can just start spacing the floor and hitting some 3s they could get back in this thing.

I'll take "Gallows humor" for $2,000 Alex...

Certainly feels like we should be down 35 plus by now.

If the Lakers stop draining threes every time down the court, we could close the gap.

Harry is feeling the natural gaps in the defense cause by the pick-and-roll which is good but those gaps are for the guards to make a play and he's just getting in the way

The Kings score 64 in the first half, and Giles is messing up the offense?

 

[SLAB]

He also let them hit 20 threes.

 

[chief bromden]

Not surprised considering he's clogging up that paint, man.
