[Game] Kings at Bucks, Monday Feb. 10, 5 PM PT/8 PM ET

[kingsboi]

Kings are their own worst enemy in this one. They've had every opportunity to chip into this lead but keep turning it over.

STOP FORCING IT INSIDE FOX

 

[Hoovtrain]

Let him have it luke!!

 

[est.1999]

Ball game!

 

[Amiga]

What is Fox doing??

 

[Groovygreg]

Why is Walton fired up at the refs right now?

 

[White_Chocolate]

Buddy's defense is puzzling at times. The refs definitely have not been our best friend, but what's new.

 

[steelevt]

Don't really have a choice with the small lineup, but sometimes the defensive rebounding....

I blame missed layups and turnovers more than that but yeah defensive rebounding hasn’t helped

 

[Iced Espresso]

That second unit that couldn't buy a bucket...hopefully Parker helps them some down the road.

 

[Joshoua]

DiVincenzo is an all world defender sheesh

 

[Kingster]

Putrid offensive games by Fox and Bogs. Good passing, but not enough shot making.

 

[kingdivac]

Walton should not have changed the lineup in the beginning of the quarter - hindsight 20/20. That 10-0 run really blew the Kings up.

I think Barnes was fouled on that last play.

 

[Joshoua]

What is Fox doing??

DiVincenzo is all over him

What did he do? Which play

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Giannis, Thanasis, Kostas... Liam. Hrmm... I wonder if the new mom had any input on the name?

 

[kingdivac]

Milwaukee coach mad about that average closeout on Hield.

 

[kingdivac]

The hole at the beginning of the quarter just too deep tonight.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

DiVincenzo is all over him

Shout out to Bomani Jones!

 

[White_Chocolate]

What did he do? Which play

On switches he often goes to the closest man but not the man he should actually be switching onto. For example on the DiVincenzo three to go up 111-100

 

[Groovygreg]

If the Kings are going to take another step, they need to consistently demonstrate more composure at the pivotal times in games.

Will need to rewatch that play - when it happened in real time I actually thought the screw up was with one of the other players (Barnes/Fox?)

 

[Kingster]

Good challenge by Luke.

 

[kingdivac]

Bogus call

 

[steelevt]

Well it was a scheduled loss. Overall played well, just missed some easy shots and I’ll timed turnovers did us in. If Fox or bogie had decent games we might have a different outcome.

 

[burekijogurt]

What did he do? Which play

I think he was referring to the 3 that put Bucks up 111-100 he went to the wrong player allowing Bucks to pass around perimeter two times for open 3. but i mean this scoreline is a sum of many things that happened tonight (by this I dont mean many things by Buddy but in general)

 

[burekijogurt]

the behinning of the fourth did us in.

 

[Kingster]

To me, this game is all about Fox. If he wins in the Bledsoe matchup, Kings win. If not, they lose 9 times out of 10. Eventually, Fox is going to have to figure it out against Bledsoe and the Bucks.

 

[SacTownKid]

If the Kings are going to take another step, they need to consistently demonstrate more composure at the pivotal times in games.

And the coaches need to be better at reading the situation. This games undoing was undoubtedly that 4 guard lineup with Yogi and Joseph together. How can you start cold in the 4th with that same lineup after it's first stint? Yogi with a -10 and it was OBVIOUS as to why. Well, 9 to go before this season is likely nipped in the bud.

 

[Kangztillidie]

That my friends is an extremely well coached team that is active on both ends of the court. Kings heard footsteps all night. Missed so many easy shots, but that comes with not being confident you are quite that open. Bucks had the Kings second guessing everything and playing scared in the bookend quarters. Hats off to them. They should be the faves to win it all this year.
