Davion!

 

[Sluggah]

Guess we were just facing the wrong way.

 

[The Effort Police]

Now THIS is better…

ok just ignore the first half. The start of the 3rd is what I expected from the kings

I mean they benched their stars...

Albeit our 2nd unit is clearly better.

 

[jcwkings]

Keegan is already the most polished scorer on the team. Can get buckets from all sorts of spots and manners.

 

[Tetsujin]

If the Lakers trade Russ, they need like 4 bench guys back at least.

Getting Buddy in will probably help them in that regard at least.

 

[Entity]

So was metu that bad that he don’t get any run under brown? I thought he was good enough to be in 10 man

 

[Tetsujin]

Max Christie not even the best Christie in Crypto.com Arena tonight. Tough look for him.

Idk. Metu is an entertaining player to watch. But I’ve never been able to decide if he’s actually any good… like at all. Lmao

 

[jcwkings]

Malik Monk has been dreadful on both ends.

 

[KainLear]

It's a little disheartening to see some of our members getting such knee-jerky reactions but it's not hard to understand, the decade of poor basketball will do that to anyone.

But if/when you engage with team staff or players online, remember this, many of them showed up yesterday, and thus don't share your irrational take that was affected by your bias, albeit understandable, from rooting for losers for this long.

 

[The Effort Police]

No chance. I like Metu but he shouldn't be in a rotation that expects to take itself seriously.

He just looked mildly competent because Bagley set a low, low bar by comparison.

 

[SacTownKid]

Getting Buddy in will probably help them in that regard at least.

And they are obviously hoping one of these retreads pop like Monk did last year. That's a gamble for sure.

 

[MizzouKing]

If our starters shooting woes are related to exhaustion from defense-intensive practices, I’m okay with that. They are young, healthy, and these practices will eventually stop kicking their butts as they become routine.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Apparently, only dudes from the state of Iowa can set up Holmes.

(and then Monk ruins this the next play)

 

[Tetsujin]

RICHAUN OOPS

 

[The_Jamal]

Feed the big man!

 

[SLAB]

Bagley forever catching strays is just immensely enjoyable.

 

[SLAB]

Hey fam. I think this Keegan guy may have actually been the right pick.

 

[The_Jamal]

Keeeeeeeeeeeggggaaaaaaannnn

 

[MizzouKing]

I mean they benched their stars...

Albeit our 2nd unit is clearly better.

Oh yeah, lakers are thin…once you get past the top few guys we have the advantage all the rest of the way.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I think we're going to like Keegan

 

[Tetsujin]

KEEGAN IS HIM

 

[Sluggah]

So this Keegan kid…

 

[PorchSurfin]

KB02 bout to shut up.

 

[steelevt]

This Keegan Murray fella might become a good player

 

[SacTownKid]

Murray is just flat out productive.

 

[Tetsujin]

Malik one more crazy make away from getting into NBA Jam mode.

 

[PorchSurfin]

Keegan is going to be really damn GOOD.

 

[Entity]

Ok so Murray looks comfortable albeit against bench players but these are established nba players not summer league fodder. Best player on our team tonight.

 

[KainLear]

KB02 bout to shut up.

About to?

I've heard nothing since the opening minutes.
