[Game] Kings vs. Magic, 12/9/21 7pm Pacific 10pm Eastern

[Woot!]

Magic appear to have realized the Pistons lost at halftime.

Hmmmm. "Right-sizing" their effort accordingly, you think?

 

[kingsboi]

would love to see Monte make a go at Bamba

 

[SacTownKid]

Kind of crazy that the Magic went away from attacking TT in pick and roll and instead decided to play into his strength of post defense.

 

[Tetsujin]

Dude's a free agent next summer. No need to be too aggressive trading for him.

 

[SacTownKid]

I feel like every single play in this quarter has gone through the middle of the paint. This is muuuuuuuuuch better.

That Fox/Haliburton/TD combo is dangerous when they are going at teams.

will the Magic re-sign him?

 

[Tetsujin]

Fox just ran around Bamba like he was a tree.

 

[EIM86]

Davion with a nasty 3!

 

[Tetsujin]

DAVION FIREBALL!!!!!!!!!

I think he's trying to make the Magic regret passing him.

 

[Woot!]

At the risk of jinxing our guys, they have taken extremely good care of the ball since early in the 1st. 1 TO since then.

 

[Tetsujin]

will the Magic resign him?

With them vying for the first overall pick in a big man heavy draft and Isaac and Carter already signed to long extensions, I'm not sure they will.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Side note: TD is somehow more swole than Buddy. I wonder if any muscle gain this off season contributed to his rough shooting start.

 

[Woot!]

Take away Buddy's 1-7 and the Kings are 11-16 from 3.

Isaac hasn't played in 16 months

 

[miltonap]

Davion with the slick fake

 

[Tetsujin]

Isaac hasn't played in 16 months

But his contract still lasts for another three seasons

 

[KainLear]

Finally! We are that team that amps up our intensity and pushes weaker teams to fold instead of being that folding party like always.

 

[kingsboi]

But his contract still lasts for another three seasons

you don't think they will make him available in trades due to his injury history?

 

[kb02]

Take away Buddy's 1-7 and the Kings are 11-16 from 3.

11-16 for the team is more of an outlier than 1-7 for Buddy.

 

[Tetsujin]

Who the hell is going to trade for a dude with a laundry list of scary injuries who potentially won't be able to play games given the expanding vaccine protocol and is making nine figures?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Sacramento embracing the cowbell thing is something that I'll go to my grave not understanding.

 

[Tetsujin]

Totally forgot Markelle Fultz is still technically on the Magic.

 

[Woot!]

11-16 for the team is more of an outlier than 1-7 for Buddy.

Fosho. Though 1-7 for Buddy not an outlier of late.

all it takes is one GM

 

[EIM86]

DC was telling Bagley to put a hand in the face during the And1 free throw instead of going for the block

 

[Woot!]

Kings have won (8) or tied (1) 9 of their last 11 quarters.

Nancy Reagan arrived in Sactown as Calif first lady and promptly called the place, "a glorified cow town." Back then it was.

 

[Tetsujin]

Len has been our worst player tonight,

 

[KainLear]

That ended up a TO but that's exactly how I like my Kings to run.

 

[SacTownKid]

Len has been our worst player tonight,

His pick and roll defense has been solid for the most part.
