I'm kind of hoping there's an answer on that bench for what's going on on the floor.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

It sure feels like teams are scoring about 1.8 PPP off of our live-ball turnovers this year. When was the last time we had a live-ball turnover that DIDN'T result in a layup?

 

[KainLear]

No energy. Bankhead flu or something.

It's called back-to-back games.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Last night? Are we sure that the Kings didn't get done playing a game an hour ago?

 

[SacTownKid]

Hawks are scoring at will.......especially Young....put Mitchell on him to start.

Mitchell isn't going to do much playing off either. This type of space and help strategy actually makes him a bit of a liability at times. It still hurts the soul watching him play off of ball handlers.

 

[Kingz19]

Basically Trey Lyles is the only reason this isn’t already over. The fact that none of our main guys look close to having it tonight tells me that this one will be an early call.

I wouldn’t mind being wrong but Kings look like crap in every facet

 

[kingdivac]

Kings have dug themselves a big hole - and it started and is continuing with turnovers....

 

[Tetsujin]

Metu offf the lob. Wow

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Delly at the scorer's table

 

[pdxKingsFan]

guitar or 2k tonight? yikes.

 

[KainLear]

Yawn... tired of these "the sky is falling" comments from the first sign of trouble...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

4 guys at 6'3" and under, and Metu?

 

[kingdivac]

Going 20 points.

 

[Livinthedream]

Will have to work to hold ATL under 80 in first half.

 

[Tetsujin]

Malik showed up to play at least.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Yawn... tired of these "the sky is falling" comments from the first sign of trouble...

second night of a back to back. Sky is not falling. but it's pretty clear we were going to have a let down game at some point.

 

[dude12]

Even Davion is a step slow tonight

 

[HndsmCelt]

This feels like a growth game. I seriously think this might be the night the team needs to learn to win without depending on Fox.

 

[KF8]

just keep it around 10 point deficit by half.

 

[SLAB]

Monk is so much more athletic than I ever gave him credit for. Why has been been a journeyman his career so far?! You’d think it would be like the Kings did with McBen on the tools alone.

 

[KainLear]

second night of a back to back. Sky is not falling. but it's pretty clear we were going to have a let down game at some point.

Yeah... yall acting like we didn't come in with a 7 game streak.

What do yall think we gonna win the rest of the season?

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

This feels like a growth game. I seriously think this might be the night the team needs to learn to win without depending on Fox.

Need Sabonis to take on more of the scoring load down low. Our threes aren’t falling and Fox has had a slow start.

 

[Tetsujin]

Malik only getting paid 9 mil a year lol

 

[iowamcnabb]

Any thoughts on a trip to the Gleague after the Boston game if he doesn’t come around? I wonder if taking a little pressure off for a 3-4 game stretch would be helpful. Maybe a trip back home to Iowa too.

 

[Woot!]

Yawn... tired of these "the sky is falling" comments from the first sign of trouble...

Indeed.

They're playing badly - and down 13. They may well lose, but I don't get what about 13 down w/6 to go in the first half spells can't-be-done. Especially for a high-octane offense.

 

[KainLear]

Monk dang near took off from the FT line...

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Davion and Keegan providing nothing on offense hurts us tremendously.

 

[Kingz19]

Seems the Kings are running away from the ball handler

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Monk is so much more athletic than I ever gave him credit for. Why has been been a journeyman his career so far?! You’d think it would be like the Kings did with McBen on the tools alone.

doesn't seem like he was ever put in a place where he could use all his tools or succeed. I remember being pretty high on the guy in the 2017 draft.

 

[SacTownKid]

I mean, that pick and roll coverage right there is going to flip this W/L record by itself at some point.
