[Game] Kings @ Magic - Sunday, Aug. 2 - 3 PM PT

[chief bromden]

Can the Sacramento Kings just disband or get kicked out of the league? Please end the misery.

They are a pretty valuable reminder that things could always be worse. I like to think of them as a modern interpretation of an Aesop fable...

 

[SacTownKid]

Calm and cool Luke must have some killer half time speeches.

"Buddy, help me please!". Bombs away Buddy is the only answer if they are going to let teams clamp down the paint and Barnes is going to stay asleep.

Is the beard weighing him down?

 

[chief bromden]

The Magic can't possibly shoot 11/19 from 3 in the second half.... Right??

 

[SacTownKid]

Here we are folks. Last ditch heave ho to define a season time.

 

[Volblorx8634]

Man, Richaun looks listless out there

 

[krylia sovetov]

This team is so badly prepared.

just like beginning of a season... i guess luke is waiting for things to solve themselves... after couple of games

 

[SacTownKid]

OK, probably have to ditch the slow and methodical, not enough time.

 

[Kings_of_California]

Simply disgusting performance here against Orlando. 0-2 rearing its head.

 

[Sluggah]

Hopefully it’s just a coincidence that our two biggest underperformers happened to also test positive for COVID.

Haha. I can see his exit interview now. "I just need a few seasons to prepare to prepare then we're good to start going".

 

[Tetsujin]

Luke refusing to adjust this crapty lineup is certainly something.

Clearly this group isn’t getting it done. Eff it, get DJ, Parker in there. Get James And Guy in there. This game is lost. Get rested for the next one

 

[AaronPDX]

This is bordering on unbelievable. I'm embarrassed for the Kings franchise as a whole. They have NO BUSINESS even being there wasting everyone's time.

The Buddy to Brooklyn for a package deal including Jarrett Allen are looking more and more appealing...

 

[Volblorx8634]

You can tell they're just too inside of their own heads now. Wild play, too much hesitation, like they feel they just don't belong.

 

[chief bromden]

Time for a wholesale lineup change. This ain't working

 

[SacTownKid]

Yeah, what the F, why did DJ get stuffed in this one? I'd put him on Gordon for craps sake.

They DON'T belong. This is trash basketball.

Thats certainly a possibility. Working in healthcare I have access to many professionals and studies and unfortunately up to 50 % of asymptomatics have permanent lung damage. I would imagine the Kings did their due diligence and gave them ct scans but who knows

 

[Volblorx8634]

Sadly true, the problem is they know it, and it's just making things worse.

Harrison, Buddy, and Holmes have all looked awful today. Should probably get CoJo tested as well.

I like the package that includes unleashed Buddy in the lineup. There is a reason this team is not so shabby when he's on. Off moments happen but sometimes taming the wild one isn't the answer even if you want it to be. I think after this game we finally see Walton break and put Buddy in there in a small unit. There is no other way.

 

[AaronPDX]

If they lose this bad to the Magic, what are the Mavs going to do to them? Win by 80? SMDH

 

[jcwkings]

This is an embarrassment.

You can insert this comment in any discussion about the Kings and it will work 99% of the time.

 

[Krunker]

Holy smokes our D is totally impotent

 

[Kings_of_California]

Would it kill this team to prevent a bucket on D?

 

[Volblorx8634]

I don't think I've ever seen an NBA team play this soft

 

[jcwkings]

Remember when Kings fans wanted nothing to do with Vucevich and preffered Dedmond in free agency? LOL

 

[Tetsujin]

Harry and Bogi out here just straight up guessing rotations on defense.
